Thanks for that but im still quite confused, if i only have 10p commission so far, if i did get the 100 clicks in the 1 week, how much would i get?
That depends on your conversion rates. An EPC really can't tell you all that much about a program's conversion rates. Sure, if a program has a high EPC and a lot of publishers it probably means they have a decent conversion rate, but not necessarily. EPC has more to do with the size of payouts. Take this hypothetical: Say a company has a 100% conversion rate, but they only pay out a $3 commission per conversion. That company would only have an EPC of $3. On the other hand, if a company has a 1% conversion rate but pays one $10,000 commission to an affiliate who only sent them a single click, they could have a HUGE EPC. I think about EPC as an average commission rate, not conversion rate.
Oh i see now, thanks for that Web, so on this picture below, The prices ive circled, i wouldn't actually get that much for 100 clicks would i? And also would it be legal for me to tell people to click on that banner if i give them something for it, e.g something on an online game.
That number is the average payout per 100 clicks over the past 7 days. It definitely doesn't guarantee anything. Some affiliate programs allow you to offer incentives, and others do not. You'll have to list that information in your account as an "Incentive."
