For those of you who aren’t already doing affiliate marketing, it is a GREAT source of income. When I first started it took a lot of reading up on various forums to figure out the best way to choose what to promote and how to promote it. Once you find a product that is relatively unsaturated and is converting well, that’s when you have to decide wheter you are going to spend money to promote it or if you are just going to passively promote it(putting banners, text ads, etc. on your website).
A great way to get a good idea of what is converting well is to call your AM manager. They will be able to pull up stats on each offer and tell you what is converting well and what isn’t. The trick is to always get in on a product at the bottom floor. There are so many affiliate marketers out there that as soon as something starts selling really well(Acai Berry, Colon Cleanse, etc.) it is likely to be over saturated by the end of the week.
I will have more tips on Affiliate Marketing later, but for now I just wanted to share with you my favorite networks thus far. I have worked with quite a few networks in my short AM career and I have found that they are very hit or miss. Some networks don’t track your conversions properly and others are not very good at paying out on time. Here are some of my favorite networks that I have had a great experience with:
Copeac
NeverBlue
CPALead
These are my 3 favorite so far, NeverBlue being the best in my opinion. I will update you as I find more networks, or feel free to comment with your favorite networks. Thanks for reading!

Hi Jared,
When your looking at AM what are you drawn to when making your decision to join? With the 3 you recommend what was it about them that sold you?
- The commission
- Support
- Affiliate back
Thank you
Jenny
Hi Jenny, thanks for the reply. When I am joining an affiliate network I am looking at the average EPC for the top offers they provide. Support is another big thing, I like joining networks where the AMs have some sort of instant messenger program. It is always nice to be able to reach your AM in multiple ways. The general look and feel of the network’s website is another key factor for me. Typically I have found that network’s that don’t put time and money into their website are less reliable. I was part of a network called MaxBounty for a while, their website isn’t bad but it’s not as flashy and professional looking as say NeverBlue. I had a lot of problems getting payouts from MaxBounty and their support wasn’t very good so I eventually ended up dropping them.
I hope this information was useful for you, please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!
