Affiliate.com overview
This is the main page which describes Affiliate.com. Here, I will discuss anything you want as I dive deeper into affiliate marketing.
What is Affiliate.com?
Affiliate.com is a company that facilitates affiliate marketers with retailers. For example, if you wanted to sell something, you’d sign up with Affiliate.com. You’d tell them how much you’re willing to pay for each sale or lead. Once you’re signed up, affiliate marketers can advertise the product. The affiliate marketers then make a cut. That’s my focus.
Initial benefits
First thing I noticed… you get a referral bonus for referring anyone there. Pretty cool. For any lead (at the time of this post 12/8/2009) you get $2 per lead and 3% commission on all of their sales for life! Uh, pretty cool.
Initial Contact
This is a new world to me, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Well, they’re extremely thorough and helpful. I received an email and a phone call follow up (message for me) once I signed up. A representative called me back to verify I was legitimate, and then I was in with an account manager in minutes. Very professional and enjoyed the service.
Overview of the advertisers
There’s a pretty good mix. It appears as though the advertisers are not as well known as those on other affiliate marketing companies lists. But, I did notice one thing, they do some pretty good pay per leads. For example, if you get someone to sign up for a list, you make money. Again, this is still a ton more profitable than Google Adsense or Bidvertiser. Heck, I had over 900 views on Bidvertiser and 1 click, hence the reason I removed it from the site.

Great blog, I found you on DP Forums, you posted a link.
I have never used affiliate.com, however I can vouch for affiliate marketing in general, if you can drive targeted traffic to a site, and link it in with a good affiliate scheme you can make nice money.
I know, because I do and many of my online friends do too.
Regards and keep up the good work.
