Need help regarding chosing hosted affiliate solution

    Hi..we recently launched our web-based real estate data service (US Only) and wanted to gather information on implementing an affiliate management system. Here is some info on our business:

    1. Real estate subscriptions sold through our website
    2. Each subscription is for 30 days
    3. We have primarily 12 subscription packages
    4. Our service covers all 50 states, so we market nationally
    5. Subscription prices range from $13.99 to $200

    Questions:

    1. Can you suggest hosted affiliate solution most appropriate for our products? (We looked at few and esellerate.com came pretty close but it is more geared towards software rather then digital subscriptions. Ideally, we would like a similar type of solution but specifically for subscriptions)
    2. Our affiliates will be other real estate companies offering non-competing products and services. So our chosen affiliate program should be easy to explain and implement for our affiliates.
    3. Typically what sort of commission (flat or %) is advisable? What commission would you suggest?
    4. Anything else we should be concerned about? Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Have you thought about joining an affiliate network, and allowing them to have the privelege of doing all the work for you? :)
