Are you using AuctionAds as well? I wonder if that might be more suitable for my site, since everyone seems to be raving about it.
I love the Text-Link-Ads affiliate program - $25 flat fee earned everytime someone signs up as an advertiser or publisher. They're also pretty good from a publisher's point of view if you've got a PR4 site or better and they pay by PayPal - what could be more convenient? Check out this balanced TLA review for more info.
ShareASale has always done well for me with their product feeds. I have many other affiliate programs that I like. So many in fact that I can't chose.
I have done very well with MoreNiche, although all of my sites are built around each niche, I have several competing ads running together and MoreNiche out sells them with way better conversion rates. Commissions are between $30 and $175 per sale, and they just added a trial offer to their weight loss product that will really increase sales. Check out the first link in my Sig.
What about a good lead generation program. No rejections on all leads generated and a realistic average of £80 per lead. A good affiliate can generate in excess of 100 leads per month.
CJ is probably my favorite because of the real time updates/sales. Their site is very easy to navigate as well, and makes running reports very simple. They also have some very good affiliates (ebay, half.com, as well as a few booksellers) Really my favorites are the best performing, so CJ and Amazon.
My favorite is CJ due to the fact that a) they have always paid me on time and b) they have a huge list of quality programs. Generally, if I've used a web product or service whether it be hosting, domain name registrar, or email marketing software in one of my ecommerce ventures and I'd like to affiliate with them - they are on CJ.com I've also had success with smaller niche affiliate programs.
Isn't CJ more like a gateway to organize and keep track of multiple affiliate programs you belong to, not an actual affiliate program unto themselves? If that's the case they sound like a perfect fit for me.
Yes, and they are the best IMO. If you want genuine, valid products to promote that aren't from here-today, gone-tomorrow companies, CJ is it. Now stay the hell outta my niches!
Here's a tip for web designers: When taking on a new client, sign them up under reputable company affiliate programs via your CJ account. IE. They need a domain? Godaddy. (revenue share) Hosting? Hostgator ($100) Email Marketing? Constant Contact. ($25) It's a great way to earn some extra income during the development / consulting process especially when these are the products or services that I would be recommending them anyways.
