Unique Article Wizard And Affiliate Programs

Before joining an affiliate program, there are some questions you should ask. It is important to do a little research about the types of programs available.

When do they issue the commission checks? Every program is different. Some issue their checks once a month, every quarter, etc. Many affiliate programs set a minimum earned commission amount. An affiliate must meet or exceed this amount in order for their checks to be issued.

The average number of hits to a banner or text link that it takes to generate a sale is called the hit per sale ratio. This factor is extremely important because this tells you how much traffic you must generate before you can earn a commission from the sale.

How are referrals from an affiliate’s site tracked? How long do they remain in the system? You want to be confident the program will track people you refer from your site. This is the only way you get credit for a sale. The period of time that those people stay in the system is also important. This is because some visitors do not buy initially but may want to return later to make the purchase. Find out if you still get credit for the sale if it is made at a later date.

Your choice of affiliate program should be capable of offering detailed stats. They should be available online 24/7. Constantly checking your individual stats is important to see how many impressions, hits and sales are generated from your site. Impressions are the number of times the banner or text link was viewed by a visitor of your site. A hit is the one clicking on the banner or text links.

Who is the online retailer? Is it a solid company? Know the products. The more you know about the retailer offering you the affiliate program, the easier it will be for you to know if that program is really for you and your site.

Is it a one tier or two tier affiliate program? A single tier program pays you only for the business you yourself have generated. A two tier program pays you for your sales and also pays you a commission on the sales generated by any affiliate you sponsor.

What is the amount of commission paid? 5% - 20% is the commission paid by most programs. As you can see from the figures, you will now understand why the average sales amount and hit to sale ratio is important.
