Hi I have set up an affilite program at paydorcom and everything works fine. What i am interested in is other options in affiliate marketing. What i mean is paydotcom only let your affiliates earn a commision %, say 50% of the product price. What are the options for paying affiliates as pay per click or pay per sign-up. Also if you have lots of different options to pay (subscription, buy now, different level package) on your site how would you incorporate that. I know there are lots of programs out there, im just interested in the options and any recomendations any one can make. Thank you very much
Per lead, per click, percent of sale, and per impression are all options. Most networks allow for a variety of options. Do some research on Comission Junction, Share a Sale, and others to see what options you have..... Good luck, Sanzbar
Well that's big question that relies partly on your needs, your budget, your market and the type of affiliate program - PPC, PPL, PPS. These are all variables that would affect my recommendation. There is no best one-size-fits-all program and each affiliate tracking solution has its pros and cons. I have been trying to make time to build a comparison and list of pros and cons on this page: http://www.5staraffiliateprograms.com/trackingsoftware.html. That page DOES list my top recommendations, it just doesn't list all the prices of the other options like CJ and Linkshare which are both over 5K to start. So that page does list the top affiliate software programs and networks, so I hope that will give you a starting point. SAS, listed on that page, for most product based PPS programs is my favorite option.
Sorry this is a bit late... you can compare many affiliate platforms (scripts, hosted, some networks) on this affiliate software comparison site. regards, Peter
