Commission Junction, anythings I should know before using it?

[BigBlaze205]

To increase sale on eCommerce store, I would like to use Commission Junction.

Is worth it? Is there things I should know before starting with them?

Thank you,

I don't know how effective using an affiliate program on your ecommerce store will be, but here is some advice re CJ:

If you have any issues with an affiliate program, CJ won't mediate, they will instruct you to contact the partner directly through their built in mailing system. The times I've tried this I've never received a response.

Some programs don't allow deep linking, which means you have to send traffic the partner's home page, which is highly ineffective. This is not limited to CJ affiliate programs, but it's something to look out for when selecting partners to work with.

I personally prefer Share A Sale, but you should try them both and see what you think.

Hope that helps.
