I just signed up and will give it a try with a few domains.

Is this new? And has anyone had any success?

Cheers,

Jim

@ Fagend, I joined the Chris's myaffsite program right at the start when he posted on the forum asking for beta testers for it in early December.

I'm very happy with how some of my bike sites are performing on there, and despite the domains being very new, 3 of them are number 1 in a Yahoo search for "carbon bikes", "bike lights" and "mountain bike frame + mountain bike frames". Some of my other sites on there have made nothing yet, but that will be down to the fact that they are not ranked very well in searches at the moment, so that's not myaffsites fault.

So far, I have made £51.65 (£56.65 including sign up bonus) commission up to January 15th from my bmxbikes site, and since the 15th, I have 3 more commission payments of £0.28, £2.92 and £12.60 to come from my carbon bikes, select bikes and bike lights sites.

I know Chris is constantly working to improve the program, it used to be a bit slow loading the product description pages after clicking on the images at times, but he has now changed that to a button below the images which takes you directly to the retailers product page for a full product description where they can buy the item, so it's a lot quicker. He also added a quick link menus module recently, so you can set it up to have links straight to particular makes/brands for each product, overall, I love it

So far it's looking good. A lot better looking than a parked page And a lot less effort than developing my own affiliate website.

I also have a few bike domains, so I'll give them a shot too.

I'm still trying to find my way around setting it up properly but once I have it figured out I'm sure I'll be adding more domains. PPC is dead, and aff or dev is the only way forward for 2009/2010 IMHO.

I don't know where to start with selling .uk domains to end users, so I'll be trying affiliate sales over the next couple years.

Do you think myaffsite would also be successful with .com domains? I own hundreds of .coms but only a couple of dozen .uk I only recently realised the full value and potential of .uk
Hope I've not missed the boat with .uk

Cheers,

Jim

@ FagEnd, not sure about .coms but I don't see why they wouldn't do just as well if they are ranked well.

I totally agree that affiliate is the way to go, for me anyway it is, I don't have any fancy type in domains to earn revenue from parking, and my site making skills are rubbish, so this is ideal for people like me. Just checked myaffsite stats and my mountain bike frame site has just made another sale today, £6.86 commission (unconfirmed as yet) added to the total

I should hopefully start getting more hits on my bike stores soon and possibly more sales, as I added my store links to my cycle training site yesterday, that gets quite a few hits and I have a couple of cycle training logs on biking sites that have over 75,000 views each, any commission made is going towards buying my new mountain bike, which will also be bought through my site to earn more commission

[edit]

If you are putting your bike sites on there, use the Halfords and Wiggle retailers, Halfords pay 5% commission for everything, Wiggle pay the same for all stuff on their site, except bikes and bike frames, which you only earn 1% or 2% on, hopefully, Chris will be adding Evans Cycles to the retailer section some time soon, they offer 5% for everything including bikes and frames.

[edit]

Just a correction to one of my figures above, it wasn't a £6.86 commission sale today, it was £3.94, I was looking at the January total, the other sale commission 2 days ago was £2.92 = £6.86

I've uploaded several sites and working on setting them up, but the backend system is really slow at times, and the domains load painfully slow at times. Is this just an issue with server load and will it be fixed anytime soon?

Apart from that it seems to be a great service. Hope it remains free to use. I'm assuming the way it works is Chris gets a share of the affiliate revenue generated so can offer the service for free.

Cheers

Jim

The reason is normally if there are no retailers added, it is crawling through 2 million records. Make sure to add retailers to each shop

Hi

Nice work! I like it, been looking for something along these lines for ages. I am just getting to grips with the system and wondered if there was any way to compress the number of items for sale? There is a lot of white space on the pages I am seeing on bmxbikes etc!! Is there a way to shrink the product size?

Cheers!

I have trialled the following sites:

skiing | skiing deals
classic cars | classic cars deals
gadgets | gadgets deals
jeans | jeans deals

Let me know if you think I could improve....

Suggestions

1. Reduce font size or white space!!! Or have user settings!
2. Clickable images.


Cheers
