    Hey folks -

    I'm a merchant with a service to promote and I'm looking for some advice on good networks. We don't qualify for CJ. What's a good one to get started on with minimum network fees just to start getting a feel for the whole merchant/affiliate relationship?

    Thanks!

    Shareasale is the cheapest big network.

    I forget the referral fee they pay. If you decide to go that route I'd be happy to kick half of it back to you via paypal. It's $75 to $150 I believe.

    Outside of Shareasale you might as well just run your own with an affiliate script.

    http://www.idevdirect.com/ is a pretty good script. I use a number of affiliates that are on board. I am not an affiliate so I have no idea what it costs.

    BTW - it's pretty easy to add header graphics to your cutline theme. Just upload them over the top of the existing files in the same folders.

    Hi spock0149,

    I second Shareasale. It's the most reasonable set up and also very popular and well respected by affiliates.
