I was just wondering if we can put WSO Affiliate links in my signature.
I have read the rules it says no to affiliate links,But is it applicable to the WSO Affiliate Links TOO.
Thanks For The Help.

    No affiliate links at all. Even if they're WSO affiliate links.

    Right from the rules:


    EDIT ADDED 3 May 2011: The new WarriorPlus affiliate links for WSOs are not allowed either.

    No but you can link to your own domain that has WSO affiliate links on it. The domain can't automatically redirect to the affiliate link but you could set up a page reviewing that WSO offer.

        I have no idea why you would say that since it is only going to confuse people. You are NOT allowed to have any WSO affiliate links in your signature. You are however allowed to link to your own WSO. But why would you be linking to your own WSO offer through an affiliate link, specially when the main platforms such as Warrior Plus allow tracking with their regular links?

        Ron,

        You ARE allowed to direct have links to your own WSO offers in your signature. That's perfectly acceptable.

        The only thing you are NOT allowed to do is to have any type of affiliate links in your signature. If you want to promote affiliate products then you must link firstly to your domain, and have a link on there people can click. Your domain cannot automatically redirect people as that is also against the rules.

        So you don't need that interim page you have setup if you are simply linking to your own offer, whether it's a WSO or not.

          hey will

          the reason why I use this is because wso pro now has a vendor link option

          so you can track your affiliate links for free using there platform

          what i do is create a tracking link for every affiliate link for any of my wso products weathers it`s anywhere on here or anywhere within my email sequence

          i can then see where and which email has sent me a sale

          i know there is other tracking services available but for wso`s wso pro gives you a free option for tracking :-)

          hope this clears things up

          paul

    you can`t promote other wso` just the ones you own through an affiliate link

    i actually emailed the help desk 2 weeks ago and asked this question and they told me exactly what i have just said here
