I have only used google as an affiliate so far. I found a link to C.J. yesterday and went there but their site kept glitching up and I couldn't even submit an application. Is the company legitimate?
Cj or Commission Junction is absolutely legit. Just follow and abide their rules and you should be fine.
Many people got banned because they don't respect their rule and don't follow it ( always find the way to cheat them ). Else, they are the best Affiliate Network
CJ was around long before Google's Adsense program. They are one of the few surviving large affiliate networks.
Both were founded in 1998: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adsense https://www.cj.com/about/ edit: But I agree. CJ is fine.
I agree. CJ is the largest affiliate network out there. They are owned by ValueClick Media, a publicly traded company listed with NASDAQ.
