What makes a good affiliate program? - GoFuckYourself.com

Kolargol · 02-12-2006, 04:32 AM

I run several small foot fetish websites and I am planning to open an affiliate program with CCBill. What makes affiliates sign up for such a program and what pisses them off? I understand I would have to get rid of "links" page and other traffic leaks. Any other suggestions?

fallenmuffin · 02-12-2006, 04:35 AM

Get rid of the traffic leaks, pay atleast 50% on recurring. Give them credit for trails, singles, and recurring.. Hmm most don't really care if you make them pay a percent of you ccbill fees as most sites do just set it low. And go amatuer..sells better then shiny and flashy

Good luck and hit me up when its down I'm looking to start a few foot fetish sites

- epass payouts!!!
- HQ content we can use.
- no traffic leaks.
- good sites, good tours...
- no bullshit (see the dirty secrets thread)

fallenmuffin · 02-12-2006, 04:43 AM

Oh yeah and have some freakin' hosted galleries. I'm so sick of CCBill sites not having any freakin' hosted galleries. Aight, sorry I'm a little angry about it. Some do, MOST don't. And it's like all the sites are abandoned they never update their pages (not the adult pages but the program pages) have some weekly news posted there so we know you guys are alive lol

Okay, I'm done ranting...

Thanks for posts guys ! That's my paysite: http://www.feetfactory.com and it's full of links to my other paysites and it also has a prominent "Links" page. I understand I will need to get rid of them. This site has quite a few "Updates" pages - to show customers what they really get. Does it matter for affiliates and conversions? Should I remove Updates pages in a tour for affiliates ?

What is required for that and for the integration in NATS?

You must have pics of a Ferrari on the webmaster page

Make affiliates money and you'll never lack affiliates. Too obvious maybe, but dont lose focus. No amount of perq's will overshadow the bottom line.

FuckU2 · 02-12-2006, 11:23 AM

Would be nice to see what some of you experienced affiliates call a good affiliate program. Post an example of one that has all you need and more ?

Tom_PM · 02-12-2006, 11:28 AM

Peoples needs vary though. Just being responsive and flexible is probably more along the lines of something you can pinpoint and manage to achieve.

Regarding promotional content - do you prefer to get it in zip files or any other way? What size of pictures ? Would you like to have thumbs done as well? Banners - what sizes are necessary? Do you prefer animated or not?

is 50% good enough in revshare?

SomeCreep · 02-12-2006, 03:39 PM

IMO, a good affiliate program is one that makes it easy to grab your links, has stats which display unique hits, and has webmaster support which responds to queries within a 24 hour period.

Kolargol · 02-12-2006, 05:10 PM

I am going to use CCBill - are their stats good enough?
