I need a solution for: - autoresponder - affilliate program - payment gateway - merchant account I decided to put this on forum because there are so many products around which combines even all of this and I dont know anything about most of them. Regarding autoresponder - autoresponseplus.com is the one I like most. Are there better solutions than it? Regarding affilliate program, I dont know, theres really too many of them - some are cheap, some are very expensive. Just look at these: http://synergix.com http://1shoppingcart.com http://myaffiliateprogram.com Those were expensive ones - and those are cheap (anyone have any expirience using them?): http://www.web4future.com/products.php?p=aff http://www.twsc.biz/php_affiliate_script.php It is important to have affiliate program hosted on my site - not using remote URLs. Theres enough talk on merchant accounts, so I wouldnt speak too much about them here - I just need one which will work in combination with affiliate program manager - it may be one of the big four - 2co, PayPal, iKobo, worldpay but also may be something like etelegate.com & multicards.com So whats program/software of your choice regarding those four online business things? It mustnt be all-in-one, its important to close the circle with quality products, no matter what the price is.
I would suggest 1shoppingcart which can do the ecommerce parts and although it has an affiliate feature if you want that hosted on your own system then check idevaffiliate. Cheers, Peter
