Commission Junction

Has anybody had any luck with sponsors on CJ?

I would love to hear a few success stories..

I gave up on it and haven't had a look at the stats for about 6 months. I found the programmes contained items that were either too expensive or unsuitable. I also got a bit disappointed as I had about a dozen friends that joined Ebay and didn't use my links.

However some people maintain that they make a living with it.

CJ are a good network. Very reliable and a fantastic affiliate control panel. I was a merchant with them for a short time a little over 2 years ago.

As long as you market the links correctly you should make money.

I like them. It's nice to consolidate earnings from various sponsors. CJ always pays on time too!

You have to do a lot of experimenting with links to find the right mix for your site, but there are some real winners in there.

Doin pretty well there with a .org www.inkjets.org

 

[DaddyHalbucks]

Cool.

I own =[INKJET.ORG]= which I would consider trading..

but there are some real winners in there.

I would like to hear about these winners..

But, granted, alot has to do with the quality of the traffic.

Compared to the other affiliate networks, CJ is by far the best for an affiliate. They do have some issues to deal with but overall they offer a solid service. I have used them a lot since they started posting the EPC (earning per clicks) for each merchant. Make sure you check out a merchant's EPC and also their reversal percentage before you start using them, so you have some reassurance that they will convert reasonably well for you.

[system0]

i made over a grand on jewerely affiliate programs on cj but my most consistant performer has to be ebay

 

[unclewilco]

weird i have not had a bean from CJ in terms of EBAY, then last week, i but a new banner on www.auction-search.com and had 5 sign ups!! (so paid for the domain and the dev time already, okay not a lot but a start)!

i must work on it... as the auction scraper i have written works quite well... but could do better,

but thats the way, you need to put the time in,

on the other hand i get good response from tradedoubler.com..

wilco

 

[system0]

tradedoubler are very good - ive spoke with their affiliate manager a few times a couple of years ago when they were still newish - as i was thinking of becoming a merchant

theyve got a great set up and the quality of merchants are extremely high

 

[unclewilco]

i tend to make a bit from johnlewis.com at traddoubler, and advertising.com pay by clicks.. so there is always a bit...

yes the affiliate manager are very helpful....

maybe will will have to pool resources for a joint site?

i heard that the wheel is the next big thing..
(well in wales anyway)


wilco

 

[system0]

the wheel - whats that!!

im planning on doing a uk commercial type site in the future but im still playing around with ideas

 

[unclewilco]

commercial type as in FONTS?

 

[system0]

lol
no as in shopping/consumer related

 

[Drewbert]

Wilco,

IIRC eBay gets upset if you mix their auction results in with other auction suppliers (possibly forbiddign it in their T&C?).

The way you're doing it might be OK, but tread carefully. :^)
