Make Money With Affiliate Programs

I often talk about affiliates and cookies because it is really important. Cookie problems lead to less affiliate commissions in your bank account at the end of the month.

An affiliate marketer send his own visitors to the merchant webpage. If this visitors buys, the affiliate get the commission. Good, but wait.

What if someone clicks on your affiliate link and doesn’t buy at this moment? If he doesn’t have the cash at this time and he buys another day, you will probably lose your affiliate commission if that visitor click on a second affiliate link to buy the product.

This is the affiliate cookie nightmare problem. You work hard to get your visitor, and he ends up buying through another affiliate link (or directly to the merchant page).

Actually, there are not many things that you can do to avoid that… Some affiliate programs are working differently. I mean that the first affiliate to get the visitor to click on his affiliate link will get the sale.

Some affiliate program have a strong affiliate tracking system that use cookies, and they also take also the IP address of your future customer. If he cleared his cookies (like many people do today), you will not be paid! But with the IP address reporting system, you still get your affiliate checks…

One of the best solution for affiliates is to capture the prospect email address with a squeeze page or a simple opt-in form.

This is even more important for affiliate marketers. Why? Because every week or so, when you send an email to your subscribers, they will click on your affiliate link, and bam, your cookie is renewed!

Ken Evoy’s 5 Pillar affiliate program is one of the best when it comes to tracking commissions.

You will find that the $7 secrets is also very helpful when it comes to cookies since commissions are paid instantly into your paypal account! I am sure you will love it.
