I need ideas on getting traffic producing affiliates
I have a b2b free trade magazine site. Decent payout, excellent free content and a great freebie for business sites to offer. I've tried numerous affiliate services and none have worked. CJ doesn't appear that it will make me more than I'll have to pay them. Any ideas or direction would be greatly appreciated.
My problem with sharasale is that the people that are joining my program don't have much traffic and I also want to stay away from the sites that "award" their visitors for clicking onto banners etc.
on shareasale you can actually reject sites that incentivize, i know that since im an affiliate member there and only quite a few accepts sites that incentivize shareasale offers.
Create a merchant site on shareasale, and if you have the bucks, buy a sub forum at abestweb.com, or pay Haiko to send out an email blast to his members. Most of them respect that network, so you leap a couple hurdles from the getgo as far as gaining affiliate trust.
Thanks for the input. I did pay some money to abest and I hate to admit it, but as I started to work on it my tiny pea brain got confused...I'll have to revisit and see if I can get something going. I became a featured affiliate in December with shareasale but still only ended up with the wrong type of sites wanting to sign on. It's frustrating to me because my program is a good one and one that work well.
