The characteristics of any good affiliate program would include:
1. Lifetime commissions.
1. Lifetime commissions.
Some affiliate programs give you commissions on every product that is sold to the customer forever. A great example of this is SiteSell. I am getting commissions from customers who visited the SiteSell website months ago, but only now decided to buy something.
2. High Commission
Affiliate
programs that have high profit for each sale. For myself, I have found
that you need a profit of $35 per sale in order for it to make good
money. e.g. iPowerWeb earn US$65 per signup.
3. Good Quality
The
product needs to be great quality - something that you use yourself or
recommemnd to your family members. This can be household brand names,
such
as IBM, Microsoft, Coke, Dell, as well as quality assurance
authorities' endorsement such as CSA approval, BBBOnLine Reliability
Participation Confirmed, etc.
Highly Recommended Affiliate Programs:
Information
products are often the best type of affiliate products because they do
have high profits. Many people will give you 50% commissions or more
for selling their information product. The four programs I like best
are : SiteSell.com, Internet Marketing Center Survey Scout
The top Money Makers to get you started readily earning commission 45-50%
