Affiliate programs and conversion rates

    As we all know that having a pretty website is not enough. We need traffic and loads of it plus the affiliate programs on our sites must convert in order to earn revenue income each month.

    What are your best affiliate programs and why? Is it because the program offers value to surfers, just converts, ideally priced etc?

    Thank you

    Amazon converts like a champ but takes a lot of work to make a solid income. A lot of people make a killing promoting WSOs from Warrior Forum. I'm currently promoting Socialadr and the Amazon Affiliate Automation plugin for Wordpress; 50% commissions are quite attractive and I have a site that targets that market. Price seems to matter more when you're promoting digital goods than when you're promoting physical goods.

    Amazon is a good one and so is Clickbank. Just look at the best selling and high gravity products and youll be good

    Even though having a "pretty" website isn't everything, it's the first step in building confidence in your website. This will help increase conversions...

    But conversions are dependent on a lot of factors. Most importantly, your website content will determine whether or not someone will click / signup / buy / etc.. If you have relevant content that supports your product / service and you provide lots of helpful information -- you'll build confidence and increase your conversions. Relevant content will also drive relevant traffic -- which will also increase conversions.

    So basically, it's kind of pointless to ask for a program with the "best conversion rates." Just because a program converts well for me, doesn't mean it will convert well for you. Lots of factors are involved... but having great website is a major factor...

    I agree Jerry with Amazon but the refunds on clickbank really get me down. You know what I mean?

    You might want to give Infolinks a try. I just started and have had some decent conversions already. They insert links into your text.

    MoreNiche is one of good health products affiliate program which has good conversions. Some products gives 50% commission per sale. The most important thing is almost all products allow brand name bidding.
