Affiliate Schemes

Hi All,

I am looking to join an affiliate scheme where I can have a link ID that will go to a website and then I get paid if someone buys an item, so I need to promote site with my own ID. I dont have a website myself so dont need banners.

This could be electronic goods which are popular but maybe difficult to get a look in or smaller items. I have looked at a few places but it seems that often you need you own website. I just need like a link I can add to the bottom of my email.

Thanks in Adavance

    People are not allowed to post personal affiliate/referal links on this site that enable you to join and get your own link.

    You would do a lot better if you actually had a website. Affiliate companies need to approve you and normally, you would need a website like you said.

    Otherwise, you're just better off signing up for a cashback site like quidco or top cashback. Won't earn you much though. 2.50 per sign up and that's provided the person actually uses the sites after signing up.

    HI, I think I am probably after referral links actually instead of affiliates. There is a section about this on the forum so I will have a look there.

    thanks
