Affiliate Network Rewards Programs

With so many affiliate networks out there, they all have to work really hard to get your business. To show their appreciation, a lot of network have their own rewards programs. Let’s take a look at a few programs and how they are rewarding their Top Affiliates.

Market Leverage REWARDS PROGRAM
In addition to a whole new site design, a new rewards program was recently added to Market Leverage. The network now boasts that they have “The Highest Paying Cash Rewards Program in the Industry“. With the Market Leverage rewards program, you would receive an American Express Cash Gift Card worth 1% of the amount you earned in that monthly reporting period. The minimum commission to each an American Express gift card is $1,000, which is much lower than many other networks.
Minimum Commission to Receive Reward: $1,000
Commission to Reward Ratio: 1%

CX Digital Media REWARDS PROGRAM

To reach the first level of rewards point, you will first need to earn $15,000 in commission with the network. Rewards available on level 1 are in the range of $100.Once you’ve earned over $300,000 with the network, you can receive rewards such as a Panasonic TH-50PX60U 50″ Plasma HDTV valued at $2799.99.

Copeac REWARDS PROGRAM
Increase you monthly earnings with Copeac by earning a gift card each month based on your performance. With a rather high minimum, an affiliate must generate $25,000 to earn a $50 gift card. If you are pushing some nice volume through the company and surpass $100,000 in commissions, you’ll walk away with an additional $500 gift card.

AFFILIATE NETWORKS REWARDS BREAK DOWN

From the chart shown above you can see a break down of each affiliate network rewards program based on the minimum commission you must make to receive a Level 1 reward and the Level 1 reward amount. The last % Ratio column is a break down of how much each rewards program actually “rewards” you, based on your earnings. For example, for every $100 you earn in commissions with Market Leverages, you would receive $1 in rewards value, or 1%. Taking that same example and applying it to COPEAC network, you would earn .20 for every $100 in commissions earned (.20%), towards a reward.

Which Affiliate Program rewards program works best for you, and have you received any rewards lately?

Joel Comm’s Screw Up is Your Gain

A few days ago I profiled Joel Comm’s new ebook, “Adsense Secrets 4.0” on the blog. Along with many other well known bloggers promoting the book, we were previously sent the ebook before it went live for sale. I assume the majority of us only looked at the landing page, but didn’t go through the full ordering process as we already had the ebook. It wasn’t til Mark made a post and called out Joel for “scamming” users by telling them the ebook would be $9.95, then to have them billed for $29.95 a month.. It wasn’t so much that the users didn’t know, it clearly said you would be billed $29.95 a month if you didn’t cancel, but how many of us read everything on the order form page. I didn’t realize this additional monthly fee either, until I looked through the site and went to the order form. Not only did Mark win by getting a ton of attention from the post, but Joel is looking to clear everything up and give everyone that orders the ebook a bit more.

Today I got an email from Joel along with his apology version of the site and how he wants to make good on his ebook campaign and the misunderstandings of his ordering process. To make good on the ebook, not only has Joel corrected his landing pages to make it EASY and CLEAR for subscribers to choose if they just want the ebook for $9.95 (or $29.95 monthly package), but Joel will also be donating 100% of the profits for the next two weeks (starting today) to the Hearts and Hands International foundation. Joel has also added a few “Fast Action Bonuses” to anyone that orders the ebook. This was a good move on Joel’s part and as a personal friend, I don’t believe he was out to get (or scam) anyone, it just wasn’t setup the way it should have been.

To make things even more exciting and beneficial to my readers, I’ll be giving away FIVE FREE COPIES of Joel’s Adsense Secrets 4.0 ebook all of this week. A winner will randomly be selected from the comments made on the post. Simply make a relevant post (no spam or trash) and each day come back to this post and the winner will be listed and contacted. One entry per person.

If you don’t want to wait, simply click here to buy Joel’s Adsense Secrets 4.0 ebook.

UPDATED WINNERS:
Monday’s Winner - The Manager
Tuesday’s Winner - Kerry
Wednesday’s Winner - TrishaLyn Fawver
Thursday’s Winner - Not John Chow
Friday’s Winner - James Seligman

Comments on this post are now closed as the promotion has come to an end.

Crazy Easy Contest with $7,695 in Prizes Up for Grabs!

I first came across gyutaeface.jpgWinning the Web a few months ago, and since then Gyutae Park has been doing a great job on providing quality content, while putting forth the marketing efforts to get more readers and eyeballs onto his blog. Gyutae is now ready for his biggest site promotion yet, and has put together one of the best prizes packages I have seen, especially from such a young blog (started in Oct 97). His contest is rightfully called the “Craziest Internet Marketing Contest You’ve Ever Seen“, and I would have to agree. There are some high end prizes here up for grabs, and it’s ridiculously easy to enter… that in itself makes it pretty crazy! In addition to taking part in the contest, you should take a look at his blog, which covers tips on blogging, affiliate marketing, seo and other ways to monetize your online business or blog.

Contest & Prizes
Everyone seems to be making a new contest for their blog every week now… but the main reason why the Winning the Web contest stood out from the rest for me, wasn’t just the cash and prizes from big name networks, but also how he setup the listings on is page. The placement and usage of company logos ended up looking great. You can click here and visit his blog page with full graphics and prize details. Here is a quick run down of prizes available through the contest:

- $650 Cash from Azoogle Ads
- $500 Cash from PepperJam Network

- 1 Paid Review on Winning the Web - sponsored by 1 Cool File ($100 value)
- 20 Winning the Web T-shirts (20 winners - $9 value each)

How the Contest Works
I’m sure Winning the Web has spent a decent amount of time compiling this list together to offer his blog readers only the best prizes for his contest. After all, by offering such quality prizes, he will only increase the likeliness to keep his blog readers in the long run. I already went over the prizes up for grabs, so here’s how to get your hands on them.

To enter the WTW contest, simply visit their contest entry page and scroll down past the prize section. To submit your entry, you must “Sign up for the free Winning the Web mailing list (required).” and/or “Subscribe to the Winning the Web RSS feed.“. There are also additional ways for you to earn more entries into the contest, which are the following:

- Sign up for the mailing list (required) - 1 entry
- Blog about this contest and link to this post - 10 entries
- Every 5 comments on WTW (now until March 31 with 5 comments per day limit) - 1 entry
- Subscribe to the feed and stay tuned for more opportunities to gain entries
- Contest Clue entries on Contest Info Page

Winner Selections
The winners of all of the individual prizes will be selected by a random draw on March 31 - there will be at least 39 winners in total (including 20 free t-shirts to the participants with the most entries).

treasure.jpgI congratulate Gyutae for his efforts on pulling together an amazing list of quality names and great prizes for his contest. Now it’s up to you to take a few minutes and actually enter the contest. You’d be surprised how easy it might actually be to win! Just last month, myself and Gyutae won the John Chow Elite Retreat contest, each winning a $5k ticket to EliteRetreat! Less than 15 people total entered that contest. Since you are only required to subscribe to his rss and email feed, this contest is so much easier to win and would be a great loss if you did not at least do that! I got my entries in and looking forward to seeing who are the winners at the end of the month, will you be one of them? Good luck!

Currently at $450 in Donations to Humane Society

It’s been a week since I first posted about my idea to run a promotion to try and generate a decent donation for the Humane Society this month. To recap, all earnings from the “Top Spots” advertisers on the right side of the page, will go towards the Humane Society. So far the earnings are at $225, from first nine advertisers (thank you!). A bunch of new ad spots have just become available. If you would like to donate and get some free advertising in the process, simply click here to get listed in my “Top Spots” area for one week!

We are currently at a $450 Donation towards the Humane Society!

As mentioned in my original post, I will personally match all donations/ad buys made for this month… that means we are at a total of $450 in donations for the Humane Society. All donations/advertisers will also receive a Free MoneyReign T-Shirt, along with some “I Make Money Online” bumper stickers and some pens.

Let’s see if we can get to a $1,000 donation by the end of the month!

Free RocketProfit Hats and MoneyReign Shirts

Coincidently enough, the same day that I wrote my network review on RocketProfit, I received a package in the mail from them. My affiliate manager Peter, was nice enough to send me a welcome letter along with 4 RocketProfit hats. I figured I’d keep one for myself and one for Spidey, then pass two of them off to my fellow blog readers.

If you would like to win a RocketProfit baseball cap or beanie cap, simply join their network and I’ll select one of FIVE winners at the end of the month. In addition to a RocketProfit hat, I’ll also throw in a MoneyReign T-Shirt and a bunch of “I Make Money Online!” bumper stickers. Two grand prize winners will receive the RocketProfit hats with their prize package, another three winners will receive the MoneyReign T-Shirt and bumper stickers. This week I will start testing some new ppc campaigns with the offers available through RocketProfit. Check back soon for updates!
