I can't figure out CJ

    For the life of me, I don't understand how to get a link to promote so I can make some commissions through CJ! Does anyone have a e-book to get me started?

    In return, I can make a blog post for you on a .edu site if you want.

    Alright, I will make my question more specific in the hope that someone will come to my assistance.

    I got accepted for one wealthymen dot com program. I took one of their links, and had two or three people sign up at their site through that (they clicked on those links via e-mail). It's been more than two hours but I still don't see any earnings.

    Can you kindly let me what I am doing wrong?

    well, depends on the program....some take about 2-3 days to show and some within 1-2 hours....if your program allows email marketing and you didn't mess up the links, you will get you payment................

    sri,

    have you not seen any earnings yet from those signups from wealthymen?

    try another affiliate program.. perfect match seems to do well.

    marieg: I mailed CJ support and they replied that they checked my web site (that I provided in CJ) and didn't find any promotional banners of wealthymen and hence the sign ups didn't count. Apparently only if a visitor clicks on a banner or text link in the site that exists in my CJ account do I get credited.

    What I did was to just pass on the referral links in e-mail and people clicked and signed up...But that didn't count (which is stupid IMO)

    I lost interest after that and didn't bother w/ CJ later on.

    Don't be so quick to discount CJ.. I have one link that has been on a page for ages and never earned a dime.. today that link got me $100 .. I've got a few others that get me a few hundred $$ per month..
