How about a 2000% commission?

    I have access to a CPA program that pays you 2000% commission on a $7 product (that's right... $150 commission on a product that is simple to sell).

    Using PPV, PPC, facebook, twitter, and even forums you can completely crush it with this product and earn a ton. Just 1 sale a day will net you $4500 in a month.

    PM me for more information.

    Hey Browtwn...in your opinion what makes that link Spammy? I thought this was the section of DigitalPoint that we are allowed to post affiliate offers in?

    Please explain Browtwn how this is spammy?....thanks Browntwn......

    Pushing an affiliate link, or telling people to go to a landing page with your aff link is just not allowed. Those are the rules, so that is what makes it spammy.

    Yea I figured that was the case in other sections of Digital Point...but I thought in the Affiliate Program section could do that? I thought that was the whole point of this section? Even rule 3 says "3) Lots of scams are going on in pms. If someone really has a good affiliate program they do not need to hide it in a PM"

    I took this as we could share our affiliate programs that we are in in this section? Guess I read it wrong....my apologies....

    You are allowed to put it in your signature. (this thread is what that rule speaks to, where he is only giving it (the aff link) in a pm and not just posting in the thread. It is a little obvious from the numbers that it is also the link in his signature. Not sure why your thread got dinged and not this one.

    Don't worry about it, I think I did it once too. This section is more for discussion of different aff programs or you can link to them without the affiliate link. I've grown to realize it makes sense otherwise this section would be filled with everyone trying to post their own aff urls to various programs. Mainly the same ones over and over.

    I can also say the same. I saw even commission of 200$ for hosting products ... but offered by big names in the industry. I also made commission more then 150$ ( paid commission ) ... but in both case the sum was much bigger then 7$

    LOL, it's a CPA offer... how exactly is it a scam? It's a company paying you for sign-ups, just like the other companies out there.

    The difference is, this company knows a legit lead will stay with them for 5 years +, so they pay a lot more based on the actual value of customers to them.

    2000%...Perhaps that seem a bit unrealistic in today's world. You aren't exactly pushing a product that will recur 20x for the price of just $7. Unless the customer signs up for the "$7" "shipping charge" and gets billed $250 for the actual product after 7 days, I don't see how this works out. Of course those days are over after the "acai" and "white teeth" products.

    And, all others will agree with me

    Really? Hostgator pays $50 on a .01 sign up, is that a scam? Shawn Casey paid out $40 commission on a $1 signup for Big Dog Affiliates, is that a scam?

    This is real company that has been around for years, and it is what it is. Customer can choose from different packages, monthly or yearly billing, and there are a ton of upgrades they offer. But any sale pays you the $150, the smallest package is $6.95 and converts great.

    There's an interview with the Affiliate manager that questions him on how they can afford to pay out such high commission, and he explains how each customer is worth an amount to them. Their average customer stays with the monthly rebill for over 40 months... so they can pay out $150+ and still make money. This isn't some fly by night product or company.

    PS: There is no referral system, I don't refer people and get paid a percentage of their earnings.
