Another thing to watch for is merchants that offer high commission but then have traffic leaks all over their site. It could be banner ads from affiliate programs they joined themselves, adsense ads posted all over, and even a toll free phone number for customer to call in their order. Some merchants even offer discounts if they call in their order rather than placing their order online. Leaving you with nothing on commission.
Now, if you go with merchant that pays a slightly less commission but has much lower prices, and no traffic leaks then customer is going to buy from them instead of other merchant, therefore, giving you more conversions which will make you alot more money in long run.
