    I never really got into affiliate marketing. I signed up for a CJ account ages ago, but I just put a few links up and then let it go dormant.

    Enter my wife... She wants banners. :). I get around to re-activating my cj account (seriously, it just took a phone call. Not sure what all the fuss is about).

    I looked around at a few programs and then harassed someone into signing up. Looks like it worked. $15 for the trouble of harassing a friend. You can't do it all the time, but don't ignore your human network.

    Did they buy it just to stop you from harassing them.

    Pretty much, yep. :)

    But hey, it paid about 65 times better than an adsense ad and all it took was a quick instant messenger chat.

    ^^ Imagine the return :eek:

    And I agree, it would be better to use CJ then AdSense IMO, only because with CJ you can get more money first off and second, with AdSense, you only get paid a little bit for a click and you need $100 to cashout.

    Just join up at commission junction. This particular click is from box.net - $15 if you get people to sign up for a free trial. The downside is that in order to sign up for a free trial you have to hand over a credit card number.

    Affiliate marketing is much different because you can actively play a role. (As opposed to adsense, where I actively tell my friends not to click ads just to help me out).

    yeah, affiliate marketing is nice, I'm new to affiliate marketing but i've already made $135 so far from starting in mid july...

    i havent really put much effort in either, just cloaked a link of mine and set it up on adcenter for napster... most days i make about $10 spend about $2.. some days are better with $20-$30..

    I can't wait to see how much i earn once i start putting alot of effort in :D

    This is basically what all the "get a free prize" sites are doing. They recommend that once somebody signs up for a free trial that if the registree wanted to, they automatically cancel a few days after the publisher has been credit by the advertiser.

    I am going to try and get into it, I want to read a How To guide first and get the 411

    I assume this is like an affiliate scheme? Do you have to get them to sign up using a referral URL so that you get paid, if so how do I find it?

    Just a heads up, most affiliates TOS says that family and FRIENDS are not eligible to buy/register through your links.

    It's so hard to define a "friend" though, especially if they aren't on your IP address. I just wouldn't run around telling the internet about it, CJ reps DEFINITELY look over digitalpoint.

    Congrats on the easy 15 though.
