There is an affiliate marketing company which we're sadly having to avoid signing up to as they are cybersquatting a domain which is a confusing mis-spelling of a well-known affiliate marketing company. Of course if they stop doing that and start being reasonable, they might get some more business!

All enquiries welcome, but please note that any sign-here agreements with anything approximating to "You the affiliate site agrees that we are to be the exclusive of seller of widgets (or whatever) on your site and that no other seller of widgets may advertise widgets on your site" won't be signed-up to, as that would be anti-competitive. This site puts the customers' interests first, so let's not have any exclusivist stuff here! see things we sign up to, or not here.

And now some more Affiliate Company BANNERS...

Affiliates! When joining affiliate programs:

• Always read all the smallprint! If items in the smallprint appear to be unfair, quiz the company about it. If there's no amicable agreement, don't sign up! Also see Clauses in contracts to avoid
• When creating links, see if there are any "&" symbols in the code. If there are, then if you are using Microsoft Frontpage / Frontpage Express, then CHECK THE LINKS! Some variants of Frontpage / Frontpage Express change "&" into "&" which would normally be ok, but in this case means that although the links seem to work, you might not get paid! However, a quick check of the HTML source code will determine whether your links are good.
• Watch out for cookies, as some systems assume you won't mind. If you DO mind (I DO mind!), use a double-isolated system if necessary.
• Test schemes you sign up for, so you know you are describing them properly.
• See affiliate marketing company Guide to Good Practice
• Yes, you should have a website! Having your own website is essential to being an affiliate. Besides the good chance that you could make a lot of money, it's also FUN, and you have freedom of speech to have a say and be heard around the world! See Get Your Own Website
