Is Linkshare any good?

I just got accepted to my first CPA network - Linkshare. I know they are big BUT are they any good? Do they offer zip submits?

    They have some zip submit type stuff in the "Lead Advantage" side of their network, but their affiliate network is pretty much commission splits.

    What type of zip submits are you looking for? Any particular vertical?

      I am so new to all of this that I really do not know. I have heard that zip submits are the easiest and that seems to be obvious as a visitor does not need to add personal info ... just a zip.

    Hi Marhelper,

    Linkshare is not really a CPA network, it's an affiliate network and there's a difference. Affiliate networks like Linkshare, CJ and Google Affiliate Network specialize more in retail product pay per sale affiliate programs. It also costs around $10,000 for a merchant to set up on LS, so I don't think it would be cost effective for a zip submit offer.

    CPA networks are where you will tend to find zip submits, free trials and other offers. You could try searching OfferVault which shows all the offers at many of the top CPA networks to see which networks have good payouts.

    Hope this helps and best of luck!

    Exactly. Like what 5Star said, what you are looking for is a CPA network, which there are many.

    Marhelper - what is your website about? There are zip submit offers for many types of trials and leads so it really depends on your audience.

        Yeah, that's our specialty. Lots and lots o' zips. You'd be surprised at the number of verticals we have zip code offers across.

        Yes, they are straight pay per simple one field zip code. And we also have email submits which pay per email. And for those affiliates that can really target users to those offers, we pay you almost double in some cases for full address submit (starts like zip, but pays on page 2).

      I'm not sure what you mean, but most zip submits are put in your zip code and fill out 15 pages of offers to get a free whatever. But conversion from a publisher stand point usually happens after zip gets entered.

      Hope this helps
