The Latest Affiliate Marketing Trends
---------------------------------------- Major Players in the
Affiliate Marketing Industry like Commission Junction, Linkshare
& BeFree are losing an armada of potential affiliates!
----------------------------------------
If you're actively involved in affiliate marketing, you've
definitely witnessed the loophole to promoting merchants with
big networks like CJ, Linkshare & BeFree.
These established pay-for-performance networks are becoming more
and more self-centered, "selfish" and "advertiser-inclined".
Since these networks already profit by cashing-in the
advertisers' contracted fees, they tend to gradually overlook
fraud and business ethics.
If you're in affiliation with any of the big networks, you've
already encountered the loophole by yourself, like; scumware,
commission reversals, toll-free numbers, egocentric advertisers,
rejections, apathy, inconsistent sales tracking, commission
hi-jacking and other unscrupulous tactics, that cost you
hundreds of dollars on a monthly average basis.
According to several statistical researches, a tragic 20%-37% of
referred sales are lost, due to toll-free numbers that customers
are "called to act on" and bypass the secure online
registration, thus resulting in commission-loss for affiliates.
- However... Top Affiliate Marketers seem to Gauge the Dodge...
-
As a result, a considerable number of average performing
affiliates and "Super Affiliates", rely their confidence and
investments in smaller pay-for-performance networks, that
promise better service, ethical network management and dividends
on all referred sales (including orders by fax, snail mail and
by phone orders).
Savvy online merchants evade overpaying for pay-for-performance
and wisely decide to run their affiliate programs in-the-house,
by leasing or installing powerful software like AssocTrac ( see

- The Latest Trends in Associate Marketing -
* Savoir-faire affiliates already promote aggressively,
independently-run affiliate programs that value their
associates' efforts and reward the productive ones.
* New and promising affiliate networks like ShareASale (see
http://web-site-promotion.gr/sas ) provide low-cost solutions
for advertisers and robust sales tracking for affiliates - plus
fiercely combat merchant fraud.
* Home Based Businesses generate an ever-growing income by
promoting informational products that track multiple sales with
a 90-Day cookie (see Clickbank at
http://web-site-promotion.gr/credit_cards ).
More and more money-making opportunities emerge on the virtual
horizon for the cyber-preneur who knows how to trek into one.
Be a sophisticated, demanding and deliberate promoter and start
targeting prospects with a laser-beam...
