Affiliate Program Reviews

Hi,

it has been a few days since I posted on my blog. As some of you know I started of with AffiliateJunktion as my first affiliate program and now I’m expanding this site with other affiliate program experiences and some ways to promote whatever program you are in.

In my previous post here I recommended FreeAdsDepot and TargetAdsDepot to create free Google-like ads that get displayed on members sites. And apparently this is working because I got a few new AJ-signups from them.

Now about ListBuilders …

When you have a list of people that explicitely choose to receive ads-mails or money-making opportunities, life gets a lot easier to promote whatever you want to promote. The problem is that building such lists cost you money or time. The past few days I have been looking at some of the possibilities (that were send to me due to my subscription to FreeAdsDepot and TargetAdsDepot :-)) and all of the services provide you with more or less the same functionalities :

As a free member (like me, since I’m only testing right now) you can :

• Send mails to your complete own downline (usually once a day)
• Receive only mails from your upline (which limits the amount of mails)
• Some services offer the chance to mail to a number of random users from their members list (usually it will cost you 1 credit per person) once a week, month, …
• Some of them offer a kind of “lottery” system where you could win a mailing to 1000’s of members (I personnaly like this idea, but I’m a real lottery player since years)
• If anyone of your downline upgrades to the paying service you get a commision
• …

As a paying member you usually have the following possibilities :

• Mail 100, 1000, 10000, … members every day even if you don’t have your own downline
• Automatically receive x downline members per day/week/month for ‘free’
• Publish multiple ads at one time
• Earn more credits for reading mails
• Earn bigger commisions if someone from your downline signs up for the paying service
• Get more “lottery tickets” for the free mailing
• …

I just subscribed to about 10 different services and have noted that a number of them are clearly managed by the same people since the subscription forms are exactly the same, but who cares.

In fact I started by subscribing to ListJoe because from within ListJoe you can subscribe to all the others. The big advantage is that within ListJoe they are also publishing banners for all the other services and if you subscribe to them and then configure your ListJoe-account properly, all the banners to the other services will automatically contain your affiliate link. (By the way, this way of working is also applicable to FAD, TAD and some other listbuilding services, so do check the configuration options)

It is clear that you don’t have to believe me and start by subscribing to ListJoe, you could as well subscribe to only a few of the other ones that are promoted by them.

Here is the list of other services ListJoe promotes automatically for you :

• BuildReferrals
• ViralUrl
• ListBandit
• ListLotto
• TripleYourList
• ListDotCom
• TheListMachine
• YourLuckyList
• FreeAdDepot (not really listbuilding, but it is included)
• TargetAdsDepot (not really listbuilding, but it is included)

That’s about it.

I signed up yesterday (and last night) and today I already have 2 members in my ListJoe downline. I have not a clue how they got there since I didn’t do any promotion yet, but I’m not complaining

I hope this post was and will be useful to you.

Regards,
David
