The Affiliate Agreement
Do not sign up to any affiliate program
until you have read the affiliate agreement. At first sight you may think that the program has great
potential but you MUST familiarize yourself with EVERY point of the terms and conditions.
If there are any details you are unsure of contact the company
in writing to ask any questions. If you are not satisfied with the
terms then don't sign up. Search elsewhere for a more agreeable policy.
Check points relating to liability. If the company becomes insolvent or
decides to end their affiliate program check whether they will pay
affiliates their remaining commissions or will they forfeit all
earnings?
Do not ignore the full terms of the
affiliate agreement. Imagine all of your hard work and earnings you could
loose because of a clause in the contract. Remember once you have signed
up you have consented and agreed to be the companies terms.
Most affiliate programs offer free sign up. You get paid per completed order transaction. Be wary of programs requiring a set up fees before they accept you as an affiliate. If they go bust it is unlikely that you will not get your fee refunded.
Affiliate Payment Schedule
Read through the payment schedule to find
out how much you will be paid and by what method. You may have too reach a
minimum payment threshold of maybe $25 -$100 before a check can be issued.
How often do you get paid commissions, weekly, monthly or other?
Do you get paid by Check, Direct
Deposit or other methods?
Some of the best paying affiliate
programs are two tier, which means you get paid a percentage for sales and
a second payout if you recruit other affiliates. Two tier programs are
becoming more and more popular. Check out some companies with a solid
