    Depends on the site. Craigslist is a bunch of nazis and will try and get your affiliate account banned.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply. How about eby or yahoo auctions ? What I don't understand is if you don't own the product, how can you just sell ? If people are on ebay or yahoo auctions in order to buy it, they have to click on your links correct ? or am I just completely wrong ?

    Thanks

    John,

    What I normally do is post my ads to direct to my sites. Then forward them to your affiliate program.

    This has been keeping most of my ads active as it's not blatently advertising the affiliate program right off the bat.

    So I:

    --> post ad to my site

    --> presell the affiliate program

    --> they click on the affiliate link to the program
