Would you believe I just opened a CJ account for the first time?

    Yes. It's true. I knew about Commission Junction quite a long time ago but never did anything about it. It's time for a change and CJ might just be the right change for me.

    I would appreciate some tips in what to look out for in the negatives and the positives.

    A question: Is there any good reason why CJ does not accept Paypal as a payou option?

    Thanks for all comments.

    Col :)

    Well, even I haven't signed up for CJ yet. :D

    Good luck and I hope you earn good money from CJ.

    In comparison, I joined CJ before I found out about DP :) Kind of wish I started a few years earlier though. Good luck to both of you!

    It's not a bad program. I make a couple of bucks here and there with it. I really need to learn how to improve that, though.

    I just got started myself. Actually, I had an account a long time ago but never did anything with it.

    I'm blogging about the experience so far at http://frogmonkey.wordpress.com/

    So far, I've just gone through the process of setting up a few links and an ad rotation script. It's a much slower process than with adsense, but hopefully it will be a lot more lucrative.

    Did you check out click bank also ? May interest you.
    Expect nothing but bad support from CJ. They are notorious in not giving support when you ask for it.

    Not yet. I already have a ClixGalore account. Had a few payouts but not for ages.

    Strange. I've had nothing but good experience with support. Although... They were closed during business hours today for a company function. I found that a bit strange.

    Well pros and cons for CJ in my experience of 9 months or so.

    Pros -
    1. Always pay on time and with no fuss.
    2. Large base of products to promote.
    3. They have the ebay affiliate account.

    Cons -
    1. Stats reporting is nearly always out of date and not in real time.
    2. Its not always clear how to find a particular merchant.
    3. Takes them ages to answer emails.
    4. Some affiliate managers never answer emails.

    Thats my experience with CJ. Good luck Col in your new affiliate enterprise. :)
