I'm starting to feature a lot more affiliate schemes on my site, and am always looking for feedback regarding program performance. Obviously I keep a regular eye on the postings here - but does anyone know of schemes that are really best avoided? And conversely, the ones that really are trustworthy, good performers? I think I've got a pretty good idea, but any new info always helps (me, and any other visitors to the forum!) Thanks in advance!
No offense to DP, but if are not a member already, I suggest you join http://forum.abestweb.com/ also. You'll find some very useful information. Jim
The good thing to do is to find any program that interests you and then go to a good reliable forum and ask the members there what they think of the program, what's their experiences with it, etc.
check out my link in my sig. At Relative Cash, I have a bunch of reliable networks to choose from as well as ones to avoid. Questions, feel free to let me know!
As far as I can see Pepperjam offers a good group of reliable programs. Clickbank, CJ and Linkshare are all maybe a little large to micro manage each program so I would mostly suggest applying to established programs. Ebay is a definite one to stick with as it is so flexible. I have a post talking about earning from affiliate marketing that shows some of the networks that I like.
