Now that you have the tools, and you know what type of
products you want to market, where do you find the best
ones that have affiliate programs? Well, there are
multiple places that you can start looking, depending on
what your objective is. You must know what your
objective is first.
If you plan to use affiliate programs as add-ons, such
as upsells or backends to a product that you have, or
another high ticket product that you are promoting, you
may want to look for inexpensive ‘lead in’ or entry
level products, such as ebooks. ClickBank at
www.clickbank.com is one of the best places to find
affiliate programs for information products. Now
PayDotCom at
www.paydotcom.com is fast becoming the next
affiliate market place on the net.
If you want to promote hard goods, meaning goods that
are delivered via a shipping company or postal mail,
there are many different places you can look. First,
let’s cover sites that are essentially directories of
affiliate programs.
• AffiliatePrograms.com
www.affiliateprograms.com
• Link Share
www.linkshare.com
• Commission Junction
www.cj.com
• Share-A-Sale
www.shareasale.com
• Fine Clicks
www.fineclicks.com
• Web Sponsors
www.websponsors.com
• ClixGalore
www.clixgalore.com
• QuinStreet
www.quinstreet.com
• MaxBounty
www.maxbounty.com
The majority of these sites are networks, where many
different affiliate programs are managed. This allows
you to promote a large number of affiliate products and
services, and to receive one check for all sales across
the network.
However you may want
to concentrate on promoting just one program that
agrees with your chosen niche. There are
various programs on the net that you can choose from.
E.g.
Strong Future Income
www.sfimg.com
World Profit
Associates
www.worldprofitassociates.com
Adlandpro.com
www.adlandpro.com
Alternately, you can use Google to search for products
that you are interested in promoting, and visit those
sites to see if they have affiliate programs. This is
usually ideal for more specialized products. Also, if
you don’t see a link for an affiliate program on the
site you are interested in promoting, use the contact
email that is usually provided to inquire about the
possibility of an affiliate program, or an affiliate
arrangement with the company.
