UK Affiliate Networks- Affiliate Window
Posted: | Author: Fletch | Filed under: Keyword Research | No Comments »A common question among the UK affiliates is what alternative affiliate networks are available. The answer is loads!
The frequently travelled route for anyone starting out on the long journey that is affiliate marketing is to sign up with one or both of the big two names, Ebay and or Amazon.
Well thats fine but if you have looked around the net you will have noticed the Ebay is doing its damndest to p*ss off all its affiliates with constant changes and ‘unexplained expirations’
Amazon is much better and actually seems to want, and value, its’ associates. The problem that is emerging is that lots of the disaffected Ebay affiliates are switching to Amazon.
Why should that be a problem? Well, imagine you are a surfer looking for a blue widget and you visit site after site which advertise blue widgets and find that they all direct you to the same place, Amazon.
I have recieved a few emails from visitors to one of my Bans sites (thats Ebay for anyone who doesn’t know) which said, somewhat graphicaly at times,”Whats the point of your crappy site? If I wanted to go to Ebay, I would go there first!”
This will be the same for all the Amazon sites out there.
So, what do you do? The best answer I can come up with is to join a different affiliate network and promote their products. After all, you can generally find the same products but from different sources. This will make your site, DIFFERENT!
Different, or unique is good, surfers like it, Google likes it.
I currently work with another affiliate network other than Ebay or Amazon.AffiliateWindow
The beauty of Affiliate window is the number and variety of merchants that they deal with and this is the lifeblood of any affiliate website. At the time of writing they have 834 merchants on board so you should be able to find pretty much any product that you need.
One of the best and easy to use features is their Firefox plugin which will place a button on your task bar. You navigate to a merchants website, find the exact product you want to promote, push the button and it will automatically create a deeplink to that product, you can even get it to produce a shortcode link to cloak it. This is a great time saver.
