I just set up a new affiliate program at PayDotCom for my Financial Niche site. Have others used PayDotCom and what is your opinon/experience?
The main reason I was attracted to PayDotCom was they offer the capabilities of an affiliate program for a site that has a monthly membership fee. Also impressive was the speed and ease of setting up the affiliate program. It was a breeze and my site was "live" in a flash...as opposed to CB that makes you wait for all the approvals and can't support monthly billing.
One drawback I found is they "mix" vendor and affiliate menu items on the same page, so I can see how this might be confusing for a new affiliate to their system. It also is a long way to finding the promotional material if you are promoting a program as an affiliate. You have to log in > Promote Products > Create New Campaign > As an Affiliate > Create/View campaigns and then Scroll down. Took me a while to find all this. I am thinking of putting a link to a page on my site on the affiliate sign up form that has promotional materials.
So, have you used PayDotCom? I would be very interested in knowing what you think.
