Making the most from LinkShare

    My main affiliate source is LinkShare, but I've made very little off of them. Does anyone have any tips they can share?

    Thanks!

    I would also like to know of any tips, is LinkShare's commission value too low to be paying AdWords for?

    i have tried to promote linkshare offers, then - CJ. CJ is much more flexible and easier to deal with.

    I guess both affiliate programs are nice only problem is if you really know how to market the affiliate products to the searchers and buyers.

    I don't really care how easy each one is, but does CJ have a better product list to find products? All I see are super-whored out keyword products that I can't sell without spending loads on.

    CJ seems to have gotten worse. I see sales and far too frequently they are inexplicably removed. The Advertiser List is good but they change their agreements very often and make it next to impossible to use PPC advertising since they have too many rules and are too restricting.

    Thanks global, I wonder if there are any affiliate networks that are quality but no ones heard of. I never heard of copeac.com before I came here, are there any others?

    I dont want to put you down, But i gave up on all affiliate marketing. I know that some ppl are making 4 & 5 figures monthly & prbbly more. But those are only few.
    I only made a single sale trhough linkshare and my commission was 96$.
    Now am am concentrating on building interactive website and selling ads rather that waiting for that single sale.
    Iam not sure if its successful yet, but I feel its gonna be better than affiliate marketing,Or at least I hope so!

    Linkshare is such a pain because you if you set up different marketing channels then you have to apply and wait for each one to be approved. I have already been approved with some advertisers and I have to redo the process every time I added another marketing channel. Such a waste of time.
