At Commission Junction, link referenced above, HomeGain™ is paying, I believe, ~$5.00 - $20.00 per lead (depending on the type of lead it is), IMHO. I'd suggest staying on the "regional" theme, putting up some local information and content, news ... MLS Lisitings if you have the licensing, ability to do so, etc. - and then some strategic HG banners/ads (as well as Mortgage affiliate ads) throughout the site(s)! :gl:
Again, if you are properly licensed in those regions ... you
may be able to generate better Referral fees
directly with other Agents (through their Brokers), IMHO.
What regions do you service, do you have some domain name examples?
What type and volume of type-in traffic are we talking?
All the best!
