| How Do I Get Started? |
This Quick Start Guide will answer many questions for you and point you in right direction for success! Remember - this is just a Quick Start, you'll want to take some time to talk with your merchant and learn about additional Affiliate resources and eBooks designed to help you make the most out of joining Affiliate Programs.

| Where to place links |
| Your main objective as an Affiliate is to send traffic to your merchant. |
|
| |
| Once the visitors get to the merchant's site, the merchant takes over. It's up to you to "pre-sell" the visitor on what they will see, and what you'd like them to do once they get to the merchant's site (like Buy or Sign up). |
| |
| You'll be sending traffic using your Affiliate-ID encoded links. These links can be placed virtually anywhere you can think of! This includes: |
| |
| |
On your site |
| |
In your email messages |
| |
In your online advertising efforts like ezine ads and newsgroup postings |
| |
In your offline advertising efforts |
| |
Etc |
|
| |
| On your administration page, you should see a banner code, text link and/or a link to your own self-replicated page. These links are encoded with your unique ID number. All you need to do is copy them from your administration page and paste them wherever you'd like to use them. |
| |
| All banners and images must be placed on a website or in an email message formatted in HTML. Text links, on the other hand, can be placed anywhere online or offline. |
