Residual Commisions For Life - Affiliate Program

by jitterbug978
10 replies
I'd like to know how to setup my own Affiliate Program so I can offer affiliates Lifetime Residual Commission for each subscriber they convert.

Any ideas Warriors?

*Edit*

Can clickbank do this for me? I think they charge 7% on all commissions.

    If you think 7 % is expensive, you have to take into consideration that they do all the work for you. They track all affiliates, sales, refunds, payouts etc. This is a lot of work to do on your own.

    You have to do the math (think 4 hour work week) and see if the time you will spend using other services is worth less than the 7 %. Also keep in mind that Clickbank has a huge number of marketers browsing their marketplace on a regular basis. You are very lightly to get 7 % more affiliates using clickbank compared to paydotcom (I might be wrong about that)

    I do not work at clickbank (only as an affiliate for their products)

      Oh no I wasn't complaining about the 7% commission, that doesn't bother me the least bit.

      Can they handle residual commission as well, based on whether or not the person they referred is still subscribed and paying my monthly fee?

        Do you already have a service in mind that people will pay monthly for?

          Yea I do, it will be a membership site that I have been working on for awhile now, it'll be directed towards people wanting to learn how to make money online and it'll have advanced techniques for people that already are, it'll show things like SEO, PPC advice, Affiliate marketing, CPA offers etc..

          It'll revolve mostly around advanced SEO techniques though. Because I feel that is where most people hit a problem, that and PPC.

          It'll be like one of the other million membership sites promising to show you how to make money, except I think I'll skip the scam portion of it

    Yes clickbank can do that, also I think pay pal can do it as while, but for a cheaper rate. I think it all depends on if you are wanting affiliates to promote your product or if you are going to promote it yourself.

        I agree with MisterMunch's points above.

        If they really provided the service they claim to, could reliably track the affiliate links, had halfway decent customer service and were willing occasionally to concede the possibility that they might ever be mistaken about anything or have a problem, I wouldn't begrudge them a penny of it.
        LOL. I sense some irony or sarcam here.
