Video Gaming Affiliate Programs?

    I have looked around on Google and can't seem to find a decent affiliate program for my PS3 gaming blog.

    Can anyone please suggest one or some so I can check them out?

    I am looking for anything gaming related not just PS3 or consoles. I wouldn't mind advertising MMORPG's like World of Warcraft or something but have failed to find something like that.

    I have seen some great W.O.W banners on other sites that look great.

    Any suggestions more than welcome, cheers!

    I honestly do not have a clue where you can find adverts for MMORPGS, i'm sure someone will - but have you considered also rotating a campaign like GameFly in? It could work well based on your demographics.

    There are not a lot of affiliate programs for games. I suggest that you use context PPC ads like or inline-ads instead. I visit gaming site regularly and I notices a lot of relate game contextual ads. You can probably make more money with this.

    You can promote the guides for MMO's such as the WoW gold guides in ClickBank, the virtual currency retailers all have affiliate programs, or you could affiliate through bestbuy and sell the gamecards, games, etc.

    Those are basically your only options for affiliate programs.

    Cheers all.

    I have already looked on Clickbank and don't think WOW guides are a good idea for a ps3 related site.

    I was thinking people who visit my site would maybe like to start playing MMO's but doubt that many people already into MMO's would end up on my blog.

    Why not try out Amazon? While they don't pay very much there are tons of options as far as PS3 related products.

    eBay and Amazon are a good fit for these types of sites. I advertise both on my video game site. Also, CPA affiliate networks have many different offers that are PS3 and video game related. The income isn't all that bad. I agree that you should run contextual ads like Google Adsense; however, the EPC is very low for Adsense, at least for me it is. Maybe someone else is having better luck with that than I am. Clickbank is very limited. Try Commission Junction or PayDotCom. I haven't checked those yet for video game related products, but you may be able to find a few that are a good fit for your blog.

    Hope that helps,

    Alan
