Make Sure Affiliate Programs Pay For Every Sale
When joining affiliate programs there are many decisions you have to make. Unfortunately, few people query what kind of tracking software the program uses. To overlook this can prove costly, and means you may never be credited with 5% - 10% of your affiliate sales.
A good affiliate program will use quality affiliate tracking software that is reliable and tracks all of your sales. You must make sure that they not only track online sales, but also sales by phone, fax and mail order. Many companies only track online, and this means you will lose between 5% - 10% of your sales.
Also, make sure that the affiliate program uses 'cookie tracking' software to ensure that you will be credited for sales from people who don't buy the first time they visit your website, but come back and buy at a later date.
For those of you who don't know what a 'cookie' is. A cookie is a small piece of information that a web site puts on your hard drive so that it will remember you when you return later. This is how cookies can be used to track visitors to a web site. In this way the affiliate program will be able to track all the sales from your site, even though the visitor did not buy on the first visit to the web site.
Many affiliate programs use software that only tracks about 80% of your sales. It has to be said that many of the popular affiliate companies are guilty of this. So beware big names! Some companies use tracking software that only pays if the customer visits your link and buys straight away. If the visitor returns to your site an hour later... a day later... week later... and buys, you will not be credited for the sale. Good 'cookie tracking' software ensures that this never happens.
So, before you join any affiliate scheme make sure to ask about the kind of tracking software they use. It could save you a small fortune in the long term.

Affiliate Program Commissions - The Higher The Better
A good way to tell if the affiliate program you belong to isserious about their affiliate program commissions is thepercentage they are paying you. If someone is offering you 10%commission, and they are keeping the rest, then you need to askyourself "Should I really be in this affiliate program?".An affiliate program I have recently joined called ‘E-BookMarketing Explained’, pays out 45% commission to theiraffiliates and another 10% to the 2nd tier. That’s 55%!

| How To Choose An Affiliate Program
What is the most important of these two factors in choosing an affiliate program? 1. What the program can offer you. OR 2. How you think the program will sell to others. Ignore for a minute whatever it is the program sells, and ignore what tools, freebies, or extras it offers. Strip it all away and look at the 'attitude' of the program. What kind of 'feel' does it have? What kind of upline support does it have? Does it sound like something that is real and going to be around? Or does it remind you of the row of shouting salesmen at a fair time carnival? When you sign up on a program, you are putting YOUR NAME alongside the techniques, attitudes, and reputation of that pro... | |
