iTunes affiliate Program Review?

3 replies
I'm looking for some honest reviews on the iTunes affiliate program I have mostly seen fake reviews from people promoting their affiliate site referral links but then I have found some true rants with some very unsatisfied IM's

My complaint before even getting started with the iTunes affiliate program is that the iTunes software always pops-up with the same page, so... the conversions are going to be low because the customers are always going to buy from the software buy button.. they are not going to close the software and then click the "View this in iTunes" and open the software again. Am I wrong?

Opinions?

    I'm a big fan of their affiliate program but I'm a bit biased (I'm in the process of building a business around it).

    In regards to your complaint. You can deep link to any item in iTunes, the App Store, iBookstore or Mac App Store. This is tens of millions of items on hundreds of thousands of pages.

    Also, you get commissions on any sales the user makes over the 72 hour window. This includes each of the four stores I mentioned above. We find that we are getting a fairly high average order size because of this.

    Hope that helps...

      i signed up for the itunes affiliate program and also really cant find anyone that states they are making any money at it. I own the domain name ipadsoftware.org and havent done anything with it yet. I signed up under swreg to possibly sell mac software and i cant find any good affiliate sites that state they are making money with them as well. Any information would be great.
