“I’ve been told that commision junction and linkshare are good networks and they have good offers…I’ve never had any luck with them. What do YOU think?”
-Chris G.
I’ve never been a big fan of Commission Junction (CJ) or Linkshare and I’ll tell you why.
I have many friends all over affiliate and online marketing, and I’ve never known anyone to do well off them. I’ve heard they have issues with “compliance”, payment, and poor customer service. I also believe that since these offers are retail and generally from higher-priced products (vs. a free sign up offer) that they tend to convert waaaay less than affiliate network offers. So with low converting offers, poor service, and all of the issues I’ve mentioned – coupled with the fact that I’ve been at this for years and not known anyone to get rich off CJ or Linkshare, I wouldn’t recommend them.
I’d stick with network offers, especially if you’re a novice affiliate marketer. Check out my preferred networks to the right and their offers. I know they’ll make you more money.
