The best method by far is to simply Google search for websites you think would do well advertising you, and invite them into your program with a personal email.
You could try skype. Nothing is going to *explode* your signups. Each tactic is a matter of increments in improving your overall success.
Their are lot of ways to promote affiliate programs. 1. Posting in forums is the best way by using links in signature.Suppose if you have 1000 posts=1000 impression = 300 clicks = 20 sales or more. 2.Use Adwords to promote your affiliate programs. Mostly posting in forums is better than all. Because it shows your weblink not only single time but also lator on and any time. So, it is just like building your pipeline.
Personally I think that one should combine all methods to be a success. Submitting to the directories, personal contact and posting at forums are very effective. Also I heard (though I did not try it myself yet) that paid advertisements at affiliate forums (banners, announcements) help much. Only people who are planning to join an affiliate program visit such forums and directories. Submit to #2-10 of the affiliate directories here: http://www.google.com/Top/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Authoring/Webmaster_Resources/Affiliate_Programs/Resources/Directories/?il=1 As you've probably realized, rather than concentrating on signing up thousands of affiliates, it's much more important to find really good affiliates in key places. P.S. Yeah, and then you are accused of spam.
