Pros + Cons For Affiliate Links

Lee · 12-23-2004

Gonzo,

My issue with NATs is that its a leased service, im an old fashioned kinda guy who likes to actually own something im paying for LOL

I know off the bat to own a copy of MPA2 is going to cost in the region of 12-15k and the X3 scripts solution (which is being used on Stud Money) is $7500 to own outright.

I dont have to worry about future affiliate programs we'll be launching and i dont have to worry whether or not im making to much money and my monthly bill subscription goes up, ill know what i need to pay out each month for the software $0.00 LOL

We are looking at diversifying our billing processors and Bill is already on our contact list next month when we get a little closer to launch

My main concern as of right now, is whether to launch initially with an integrated software solution to handle the affiliate side of things for us or, whether we should just give affiliates CCBill / Epoch linking codes etc.

As i mentioned above, personally im not fussed either way but i think affiliates would tend to like an integrated system where they can check their traffic and sales reports all in one place rather than having to go to the processor to get that info.
