I list here some of the useful affiliate networks I have come across and used from time to time.
Commission Junction Network has been around as long as I can remember: Url: www.Commission Junction.com
Affiliate Window used to be a very welcoming network but is much more restrictive now. They have swallowed up quite a lot of smaller affiliate companies I think and are, perhaps under much more pressure. You have to make an application to get accepted into the network, and even then your application may be declined.
However, if declined they invite you to ask for an explanation for your rejection, they are not actually willing to tell you! How is that of openness?
Wolfstormmedia – is an affiliate network I have used in the past but I don’t think Wolfstorm media is operating any more. I could be wrong but the url redirects somewhere else.
