New Affiliate Opportunity

I am in the processing of developing a standalone storefront for the largest eBay retailer on the planet.

The inventory consists of primaryily Books, CD's, Videos and DVD's, but is ever expanding.

The storefront shuold be complete in the next month with an inventory of over 4 million items.

The next step on this project is to establishan affiliate program, which wont really get into motion until June.

I have been an Amazon affiliate for years and since I am the one building this thing my goal is to be able to take existing AWS/ECS code and easily port it over to a web service which I will be developing for this project.

Amazon Affiliate sales are a secondary income for me, so I figure I want to structure this to be competetive with AWS, both in payscale and ease of use.

To start we are talking about dropping the tiered pay rate and going with a flat percentage for all sales.

If you have any gripes about Amazon.. (I know I do... reporting, anyone?), let me know what I should concern myself with to structure this thing properly.

And if you think you might be interested in being part of our beta later this year drop me an email at [ joe AT insert-title.com ] with a subject of "MMD AFFILIATION"

I have found that amazon pays so little that it is not worth promoting them. You have to go through so much to be an affilite there and only make a few cents on sales - it makes more sense to use other affiliates like at cj... bigger money, less bs.

Some programs I have checked into allow my to set a different percentage which dynamically changes the price that shows up...

Amazon used to ay much better - but two thins happened, too many people got involved and the payscale keeps getting trimmed back. Our with this new affiliate program will be to leverage the work AWS users have done and allow them to use our system with only a few modifications to existing code. We hope to have somethin in place this fall.
