Best places to attract effective affiliates?
A few notes on our program:
-The product is SAAS & freemium. All new users start on a free account, and then they can upgrade to a paid account from within our application. I note this because this automatically disqualifies us from a lot of affiliate networks.
-We've integrated Post Affiliate Pro 4, and when a customer signs up via an affiliate link, we store the affiliate ID in their account so we can record the commission upon customer upgrades (we don't use the cookie method).
-We offer 20% recurring commissions to affiliates for the lifetime of the customer.
-Our product appeals the most to digital designers, however it's gained a lot of traction in the SMB market as well - finding pools of web designer affiliates would be fantastic, if they exist.
Any tips on the best directories, networks, etc. that I should be looking into would be helpful. Thanks!
