What Is The Most High Paying Affiliate Program?

Hello,

I was starting a website and I was wondering what was the most high paying affiliate program.

Thanks,

Andrew

 

CJ.com (Commission Junction) has lots of great ones. Huge network of affiliate offers, the majority of which will accept you if you have a reasonable website that they'd like to see their ads on. ShareASale is similiar, and Clickbank is great for promoting digital products such as e-Books, video series, etc.

 

What's your niche / topic? The best affiliate program really depends on the subject matter of your website. There are a wide variety of large affiliate networks (ie: CJ, Shareasale, Clickbank, etc.) and they offer lots of different options, but this doesn't necessarily mean they'll be the best choice for your website. Sometimes the best affiliate programs are smaller, private-label programs targeted specifically torwards your topic. For example, the link in my sig is one of the better programs for payday loans. Likewise, other niches / topics may have specific programs that are better than the large networks...

 

Alright, well my website is a gaming website. For the latest news of games. So it would be going in that sort of direction.

 

You could try Amazon Associates program. You can make money by selling video games or PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii consoles.

 

I'm not totally familiar with the "gaming" niche, but Amazon would be an obvious choice for adding a wide variety of content / products to your website. You could incorporate a product feed with all their gaming-related products and earn a commission. But I'm sure there's a more targeted, higher paying affiliate program in the gaming niche. Try searching "video game affiliate program" (or something similar) on Google. Also, see what offers are avialble at CJ. Most CJ programs will probably pay more than Amazon. You'll probably have to do some research and lots of experimentation with your website to determine the best program...

 

These are all great options but I wish they would have more payment options. I don't like how paypal has raised their fees and WIRE transfers are so expensive, it would be nice if affiliate programs offered more payment options in general.

 

Amazon only offers a 1 day cookie unlike Ebays 7 day cookie program. With Amazon your traffic has to be from buyers and not lookers.

 

It really depends on what niche market you are targeting. I find that gambelling and sports betting related niches have very high paying affiliate programs. Check out some online casinos, and poker rooms. Also there are several great clickbank products in the betting market. I have used these in the past and made some excellent commissions from them. Some of my sites are still making sales in this niche. I find they convert very very well.

Just my 2 c

 

Thanks every one.
