Finding Affiliate Programs

The most popular resource for affiliates looking for new programs to join our:

searching affiliate directories 18%

google 17%

Affiliate managers contacting affiliates directly 17%

An affiliate manager who is active I message boards, 12%

I believe that program managers should be aware of where affiliates are at actively seeking partners message boards like this forum are provided a good opportunity to not only promote your programs and gain high visibility among affiliates but also a way to listen in and on what affiliates are seeking

Thanks Clint,

Those are great stats for both affiliate managers and product owners to know.

They were taken from the 2009 Affstat Report.

I blogged about it when it 1st came out. Shawn Collins, the author, gave me a preview and let me post a graph showing the stats Clint referenced. So if you want to see all the other sources and ways affiliates find out about affiliate programs to join, here it is:

Affiliate Recruiting and the FREE Affstat Report

I question some of the numbers though as the survey was taken from a small sampling of 450 affiliates. I don't think that many affiliates use directories any more so I think that figure is a little high and I have to think that more than 3% of affiliates find affiliate programs via affiliate networks.

Still it's really good information to have and to know.
