Your task is to sell the popular web usability and design analysis offered by Best Web Image. It’s priced aggressively, has an excellent payout, and has consistently received high praise from its customers. You can link by banner or text, and if you like to blog this could probably be your most effective method of converting.

winContest Kick Off!

To kick things off, and get this affiliate program running well right away, I am offering a grand prize for the first affiliate to sell just ten analyses. If you are the first affiliate to sell ten analyses you will not only earn your commissions, but you will also win $200 for being the top affiliate to date.

The second place prize of $100 will go to the next best affiliate that has sold at least five analyses.

Are you running an affiliate program to sell your product or service? I want to know how it’s working out for you. About a year ago, I had coded my own affiliate script to sell my usability software. Being in a rush, I threw it up on my site, and immediately had a few people join. There were a couple of problems though.

It’s Got To Be Professional

The first was that I didn’t have time to finish it. It looked completely unprofessional on the admin side for users checking their stats. The second major problem was that I was not certain how well it worked. I knew it worked. I tested it. I tried cheating it, and I tried messing it up as an uniformed user. But like I said earlier, I threw it up in a rush. I was concerned that someone was not going to be happy with how it worked/didn’t work. So I killed it off, and haven’t had one since.

Who Should Run the Affiliate Program?

So now I am on a quest to start an affiliate program again, but this time I want it to be rock solid. Additionally, I am still deciding on wheter to host the program myself, or to use an existing service. I’m leanging toward hosting it myself. Hosting it myself, I receive all the profit. Using it with an affiliate service, the publisher gets a cut, and the affiliate service gets a cut. That doesn’t leave much for me. Their advantage though, is that they offer a professional service, and there is essentially no work for me involved.

Affiliate Software

After asking a few forum members what they use, I was referred to this affiliate software, by OSI Affiliate. Doing a little digging, I was pleasantly suprised to find the best of both worlds from them. I could install the software on my server if I wanted, or I could host it on their server, and simply pay a monthly fee. Either way there is no limitation on the number of affiliates or banners, or anything like that. The price for buying the software appears the better way to go. It’s triple the monthly fee. See more of the product details on this extensive list of features.

Still Deciding

I’m still currently deciding on what to do, so I would love to know what some of you are doing, and how well it’s working for you. OSI does seem like a great way to go for affiliate tracking sofware. I just have to make sure that whatever I do, don’t do it in a rush again.

For those of you interested in affiliate programs I found one called, Options University Affiliate Program. It’s your basic affiliate system, free to join, and you get paid for sales/clicks. Options University is a trading company in Florida. Smartly, they stared a second domain name to support their affiliate program.

For any affiliate program site you will almost always see, “Make Money and Hardly Work”. Most of these sites do offer real money, and pay. When they refer to work though, they mean back breaking work, not sitting at the computer working. Like all things in life, if you want to make money, you are going to have to work for it.

The claim six big reasons you will make money:

  • You can earn big commissions. Generous 35% commission paid on all our products and services!
  • You can profit wildly from potential competitors. That’s right: Instead of competing against others selling the same products, you can recruit other affiliates first as your sub-affiliates and then earn “overriding” 10% commissions on every sale they make!
  • You’ll get proven ads that will generate very high numbers of click-throughs — including our best-converting sales copy, banners, text links, classified ads and e-mail promotions!
  • You’ll get commissioned on procrastinators — even after 3 years! If you send us a visitor who doesn’t buy right away — but comes back to our site and buys within three years — you’re still fully commissioned! (They don’t even need to go through your site the second time.)
  • You’ll learn how our top affiliates can make $100,000+ in a single month.* Immediately after joining, you’ll get personalized access to our private Affiliate Resource Center, where you can access the quick start training video that will show you how to get started fast!*
  • You’ll even receive special perks and bonuses I can’t even tell you about here

Looking at some of their screen shots of some of their top affiliates it looks like they were making on average $100 a sale. They were averaging a 3-4% conversion rate. Pretty good, and if you could get just one sale, it would be nice. Though I was not thrilled with the layout of the site, they do appear serious about helping you make money, and offer several methods in training.
