How do I create links?
Just login to your affiliate account. We have a wide assortment of banners, text links and buttons. It is so easy to use even beginners can create links in seconds.

Where should I place the links on my site?
You should place links where they are easy for your site visitors to find, such as your homepage. Some areas you may want to place your links include your homepage, your navigation bar, and any other high traffic areas. If you place the links in an easily accessible location on your site, your visitors will be more likely to make a purchase or transaction.

How much can I earn?
There is no standard amount each affiliate will earn through this program. Your earning potential depends entirely on the relative value of the product offering to your customers, and your ability to feature the offering prominently on your web site. In any affiliate program, factors such as relevant traffic and placement of offering will be crucial factors in the overall success.
