Favorite Promo Tools?
 

What are your favorite most easy to use promo tools? This is an affiliate program question.

Thanks in advance for your input.

:thumbsup

I personally love the morphing RSS feeds when they are done right. Unfortunately most of them I have come across are garbage and spit out text that is almost identical to the original...

But if you want to talk biz.. lots of FHG and movie galleries, Embedded flv's, and zipped content with pics and video would be a great start

The first thing is easy to use AND customize promo. Adding a parameter to the banner/iframe url should be enough to change a bit the behavior. and it should be done on our side without having to create 500 different campaigns just because the iframe border needs to be different color or link to the join page directly.

So far, AFF iframes/banners creation tools blast everything. This is really annoying because there are lots of better programs that we could put on our network, but their promo tools suck so bad that surfers don't even click on them.

The sponsor test procedure here is the following, in case you want to implement some similar tests and make your banners/iframes better.

1 ) Setup account with the sponsor
2 ) Set a direct traffic link to that sponsor redirecting traffic directly to their tour instead of trades (in this case our other sites) at near 10k - 20k / day rate.
3 ) Collect conversion data during some days (usually one week).
4 ) Stop the traffic and wait for first check / wire to arrive.
5 ) Put the sponsor banner on a site we know how much it sends to the other sponsors... if there is some revenue generated from the direct traffic test.
6 ) Check stats to see how good did that banner perform.
7 ) If there is a big difference between the direct traffic and the banner performance, ask the sponsor for decent promo tools or just dump it.

Usually we end dumping the sponsors because their promo tools are horrible and not customizable at all.
It's a pity see that a sponsor converting 1:1500 with skimmed tube traffic ends having like 0.0001% CTR on their banners even that they may be having 1:100 conversion when surfers click on them... its still not worth it.

iframes and dynamic advertising tools with many options like bangbros got (but i cant get those to work atm..?)

Awesome... What are your top 3 reasons for joining a program?

Becky do you want a free consulting session? I mean you post so many threads asking for information, ICQ me 240208, I'll give you good advice.

1 ) Have free ad space on our network.
2 ) The current queue of sponsors to be used is empty or near empty.
3 ) Some previous sponsor has failed due to some reason and needs to be replaced with a new one.
