Affiliate Networks for Advertisers

Affiliates/Publishers for the Design-Industry

[rosti]

Hello,

a question about Affiliate-Networks for Advertisers (CJ, Linkshare, Be Free ...).

In which networks do I find the best publishers for the design category?

Thank you!

[Drastic]

In CJ, sort the advertisers in your category by EPC, long term and short term. You want merchants with good numbers for both 7 day and 3 month.

In Linkshare, look for merchants on the preferred list.

On BeFree, look for merchants with the "Acclaim" icon.

Also consider contacting other webmasters promoting similar merchants and ask what their experience is.

Hello,

from Advertiser view:

In which Affiliate-Network are the best affiliates (especially for the design category)?

Which Affiliate-Networks offers the best services and prices?

After all, which network is best qualified for merchants?

Thank you.

I think you are going to reach the widest audience through CJ or Linkshare. CJ is expensive but has the best reputation. Your category is pretty narrow so you need a lot of exposure or have your own in house program and notify high traffic sites in your industry of your program.

As James says those two probably have the widest affiliate base, but you might need to be quite active when managing the program - those networks are big and its not hard to get lost in it. So be active to ensure steady affiliate sign ups.
