2) How to Add Credibility When Recruiting Sub-Affiliates
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Lack of credibility is a major obstacle to online sales.
Most any legitimate, ethical thing you can reasonably do 
to build credibility with your target market is a good 
thing.

One way to build credibility when trying to recruit other
sub-affiliates (as in a two-tiered affiliate program) is 
to scan one of your largest commission checks and make it 
available as an image file for online viewing from your 
web site.

Or do similarly with an image capture (screen shot) of 
your online sales stats. Notice how I've done this for the
Instant Sales Letters affiliate program offered by Yanik
Silver (which earns regular commission checks for me):

3) A Way to Track the Traffic You Send to Other Sites
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Following is a "techie" tip. If you can't set it up, maybe
you can pass it along to a techie on your team...

You can track the traffic you send to affiliate sites (or
any other site) by setting up a web page on your own site
that has "meta refresh" code in it. All you need is the
ability to check the traffic stats on your own site.

When visitors click on a link to the meta refresh page on
your  site, they'll be redirected from it to any URL (on
your site or elsewhere) specified in the meta refresh
section of the HTML code.

Following is an example of such a file, set up to redirect
to the ProfitInfo home page. 

To use it, just replace the parentheses with the angle 
brackets used in HTML code, give the file a descriptive 
name, change the URL in the "content=" section to any 
web page you want to redirect to, and upload it to your 
site:

(!-- Start Meta Refresh Redirect Code ---)

(html)
(head)
(title)(/title)
(meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; 
url=http://ProfitInfo.com/";)
(/head)
(body)
(/body)
(/html)

(!-- End Meta Refresh Redirect Code---)

Aside from letting you track the traffic you send to any 
site through your own site's web logs, this trick also 
offers the following advantages:

 o It hides your affiliate link and prevents it from being
   bypassed, ensuring that you don't lose commissions as a 
   result.

 o It helps make long affiliate links shorter and more 
   manageable. (At times, some hyperlinks are so long that
   they wrap to a second line in email messages, making it
   harder for users to access them, not to mention likely
   site access problems.)

 o Search engines typically will not index files ending in
   .CGI (which many affiliate links end in), but they will 
   index HTML files. 
   
   Note: While it's true that certain SE's won't index 
   meta refresh pages because some try to abuse search 
   engines with them, some *will* index them (which is 
   better than none at all).

All existing members of the ProfitInfo Affiliate Program 
have access to a fun custom redirect code creation tool
for instantly creating redirect pages for all ProfitInfo
Affiliate links. 

It's in the password-protected Affiliate Tools area:

4) A "Must Do" Before Starting Any Affiliate Program
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A tip for affiliate program owners (existing or future):

Before launching any affiliate program, it's a very good 
idea to test and refine the sales process, in order to 
improve the conversion rate right from the start. As 
savvy marketers are fond of saying, you should "test, 
test, test" first.

Serious marketers never really stop testing, but it's
better to start doing so *before* launching an affiliate
program. 

The more commissions your affiliates earn, the more likely 
they'll remain loyal to your program. And of course you'll 
earn more profits from the same level of traffic.
