It seems that independant affiliate programs are paying better than the network ones.
Not only do they pay better, you are also able to negotiate pay out rates on a more personal level. Do your research though, we have worked with many in house programs who have had problems paying us for one reason or another, as opposed to a big network like CJ where they cut you one check and you don't have to worry about chasing your commissions. Also, in house affiliate programs sometimes lack basic tracking/stats which is important to anyone who may be doing pay per click buys, etc.
