Best "Photoshop" Affiliate Program? Any Ideas Warriors?

12 replies
I'm curious if anyone knows of a good Photoshop affiliate program worth testing out?

I've tried various things on my site... Photoshop tutorials, free Adobe Photoshop guides

... but admittedly I've not found one that has converted very well. I know it's primarily because most of my visitors are coming in search of free photoshop tips, but there has to be something out there that will convert a bit better then what I'm used to seeing on the site.

I totally ignore the site, and fortunately it's totally user generated content. The site brings in a few thousand unique and FREE visitors a month, but I've yet to really take advantage of the traffic because of pure laziness.

I'd like to test a few other related photoshop items, but curious if anyone has any suggestions. And even better, any experience with affiliate programs that convert, and pay?

Would love to know.

Thanks

    Photoshop Tutorials on DVD | Photoshop Top Secret is definitely worth trying.
    Pre-sale them by embedding this great trailer:
    Created by Camtasia Studio 6

    p.s. Don't know about the affiliate program, but Mark is a member of this forum he might reply here.

    That is a great video and the site looks top notch also. Do I detect a voice similarity between this guy and Donnie from "You Suck at Photoshop" fame?

      I think that site was made by the guy who did Coveraction Pro along with someone else. Hopefully someone will correct me if I am mistaken.

    I suspect you'll have a hard time here across the board. Being a Photoshop lover, I've grown used to finding free tutorials everywhere.

    Here are some other ideas:

    Lynda.com has an affiliate program via CJ. I've exclusively used Lynda over the years to learn everything I know:
    lynda.com affiliates program

    Other thoughts include the following:

    Selling Adobe Photoshop Actions, Photoshop Plugins, books from Amazon.

    I get similar results with my Photoshop tutorials site. Even when it used to get thousands of visitors a day conversions for video tutorial products were extremely poor. Probably because there are so many free tutorials out there people don't feel the need to pay for them.

    My site has had Adsense on it for a while now, returns are low compared with other niches but at least it's something.

    Perhaps you could test a Photoshop Actions affiliate program.

    I'm going to test the 'make money from your photos' type affiliate programs next, you never know with the recession people might be interested, it's worth testing anyway.

      There are actually quite a few. Just visit popular blogs on the topic and see what they're advertising and then check out those programs. I came up with about 5 to shove into my autoresponder sequence, etc.

      Things like tools, brushes, actions, and vectors - stuff that's hard to recreate from a tutorial.

      Yeah....fact is that there are just so many high quality FREE photoshop tutorials out there that people are not likely to pay for a course. Especially if they are searching for tutorials, as that likely means they already know they can find what they need for free.

      This is especially true when many of the free tutorials are actually better than the ones you have to pay for - which is often the case.
