Referral programs Friday, Oct 6, 2006 2:52 pm

In addition to some of my recent money-making schemes such as advertising and PayPerPost, I've gotten into a similar system:  Referral/affiliate programs.  Many of the products I've tried and have been happy with recently have some sort of way of referring customers to them by rewarding the referrer.  1and1 is the site I used to register this domain and a few others.  They offer a good service at consistently low prices (despite my sometimes negative feelings).  Dreamhost is my web host.  I've been pleased for several months now (despite a few hiccups).  AdBrite and Text Link Ads are my two current advertisers, though I haven't yet made my final decision about either of them.  Amazon.com has an affiliate program (and a simple script to generate pretty referral links).  And of course, PayPerPost has a referral program for you to make money while making me money.  The only difference is that you need to enter my email address in the referral box when you sign up.  It's not too complicated.  Despite some pretty negative opinions about PayPerPost, I'm still keeping a positive attitude.  Most people's objections to the system stem from the fact that money can bias a writer's opinion.  Are there ads in newspapers and magazines?  Yes.  Are their ads on TV and the radio?  Yes.  Yet we trust those freaks to give us "fair and balanced" news and opinion.  It's no different with this.  But like I mentioned previously, I refuse to accept money offered in an attempt to change my opinion.  So anyway, sign up for PayPerPost and make me money. 

Update (2006-12-12 9:10am):  PayPerPost has a newer, simpler affiliate program.  Just click this affiliate link and sign up.
