This META REFRESH tip will help, by making ClickBank association less obvious.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You must be able to upload files to your site's server.

Copy and paste following code into an HTML editor and save it to your web server as whateveryoulike.html:

IMPORTANT! In order for following code to work, replace "(" with "<", and ")" with ">" ...)

(HEAD)(TITLE)Your Affiliate Program Title(/TITLE) (META http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://www.YouraffiliateprogramsURL") (/HEAD)(BODYBGCOLOR="#FFFFFF")(/BODY)(/HTML)

After you save this as whateveryoulike.html, and upload file to your server, you will be able to link to program with this URL: http://www.Yourdomain.com/whateveryoulike.html

This will help raise your campaign's reliability a notch above other affiliates using traditional methods (and it looks a lot more professional, to boot ..;).

Another benefit to using this technique is ability to track your ads. You can save your page as whateveryoulike1.html, whateveryoulike2.html, etc., giving each campaign a different promotion code, and enabling you to find out which one is drawing best responses.

This method will not prevent your commissions from being "stolen", but it should definitely help.

What's other 90 per cent? Marketing!

My own affiliate program gives 50% commissions, and I wouldn't dream of offering less. After all, who makes sale - me or affiliate?

It may be disappointing to see 50% of your sale price going to your affiliates. But it's worth remembering this: without your affiliate, that sale simply wouldn't have occurred.

Of course, there are many other factors involved in building a successful affiliate program, but this is first and most important: make your affiliates your equal partners, because they'll be doing 90% of work.
