    I have a young but thriving automotive community. I need to get some automotive commisions going but I can't find any on Azoogle or Maxbounty. I try to stay away from CJ.

    Anyone know any good automotive related affiliate programs?

    If you can stand CJ, I've had good experiences with AutoAnything.com there. Liinkshare has Drivewerks, which also convert good. Both sell parts and accessories.

    If you want to try your hand at car insurance, I'd recommend NetQuote; they have their own affiliate program not through any network. Last I checked, they program was managed by 5 Star Affiliates.

    Hi George and Donna,

    Yes NetQuote is great. I don't manage any affiliate programs any more but they are one of my 5 Star clients. They are in CJ plus have an in-house program so you can choose which is best for you. The in-house tracking has lots of tools built-in specifically for their program.

    Another one of our clients is 21st Century Auto on CJ. They are managed by PartnerCentric.

    Hope this helps and best of luck!

    Yes. How much you make will depend mostly on how much traffic you get, but you will boost your chances by using the text links instead of the banners in CJ.
