I'm new and need help
 

Hey everyone! I need some advice on what's the best way to build up an affiliate program. Where should I start?

what u mean

You must start from choosing billing.
And BTW - what kind of affilliate will it be? Adult affiliate program? Or something esle?

1) Content
2) Decent website design and content management system
3) Billing
4) Affiliate management software
5) Advertising budget

That should point you in the right path.

Welcome to the board

The affiliate program is already created but I need to build it up and get it out there to webmasters, only I'm not sure how to go about doing that.

Write a press release and submit to it websites like Xbiz, AVN, Klixxxx, and PR Adult. You can also put aside a little bit of money to buy signatures here on GFY and other adult webmaster forums. Talk to Eric and inquire about the many ways you can advertise on GFY here -- sticky posts, program announcements, top banner advertising, or even get some space in the various buttons around the site.

You should also check out CCBTools as they offer a very sleek array of advertising tools for CCBill programs, such as RSS feeds, embeddable flash videos, and POTD/VOTD features. Talk to Tanker (ICQ 3427575), he'll hook you up. Affiliates love these tools as they're not often available with the majority of CCBill programs.

And at the very least, post around the various adult webmaster boards with a small banner or link in your signature. Spam a little, but not too much.

Good luck :thumbsup

Klixxx is an industry publication, including a variety of online properties, that is created by real webmasters for real webmasters...So, ask me about some great "recession" advertising deals!

Also, we do a featured program spot each month in our magazine, free of charge...The affiliate program just needs to write it up. If you want us to write it up, we can take care of you as well. The article also goes up online.

Send me any and all PRs, company news, promos, and I'll get it up on our network!

We have a large resource section and article archive, so visit those as well for lots of helpful info!

Feel free to shoot me an email or hit me up on ICQ as well.
