A good way to tell if the affiliate program you belong to isserious about their affiliate program commissions is thepercentage they are paying you. If someone is offering you 10%commission, and they are keeping the rest, then you need to askyourself "Should I really be in this affiliate program?".An affiliate program I have recently joined called ‘E-BookMarketing Explained’, pays out 45% commission to theiraffiliates and another 10% to the 2nd tier. That’s 55%! Theyonly keep 45% and it’s from this that they take their costs.Either they’ve gone completely mad or they are very smart!I suspect they are very smart.By paying such high affiliate program commissions they areattracting many affiliates to their programs. This means theycan sell a higher volume. With a higher volume of sales theycan afford to give away such a high commission.Because they are giving so much away to their affiliates withhigh commissions it shows they are supremely confident in theworth of their product or service and its ability to sellitself. Their product or service is that good. The affiliates are doing all the pre-selling, all the hardwork, getting the eyeballs at their web sites. You want to getpaid for it. Do not accept 10% commission rates. Set yourself astandard of nothing less than 20% and make sure that the 20% ismore than just a couple of dollars.It is with the big-percentage payers where you can make somedecent commissions. The 40%-plus hitters. These BIG affiliateprogram commissions are the ones that will see your bankbalance explode each and every month.
