Affiliate Programs -- April Sweeps Research

I am gearing up for extensive research with regard to affiliate programs. I will be looking at several areas and hope to gain a lot of first hand knowledge through my own affiliate programs, and learn what works and what doesn't. I have made adjustments to several of my sites, including this blog. Some programs have been removed and others have been added.

You will note the freelance work program is no longer available on this blog because the reporting was very top level and there was no indication that anyone was clicking on the links. This program also did not report impression data, so it appeared to be of no value to me or the program partner.

This intensive look at affiliate programs will be conducted throughout the month of April so there may be one or two glitches. In the coming days, I may also add or delete more affiliates in an effort to glean the most knowledge about my audience and their clicking habits. I will be reporting statistics through out the course of the study and when over -- provide detailed explanation of what works and what doesn't with regard to this case study.
