Hello,
A new update on my adventures :)
When you do affiliate marketing, you have basically two choices: using direct linking (no web page and only for one product) or using landing pages (having a web page with one or more products linking to your merchant sites). After a little research, I found that a lot of people recommend using landing pages.
So, here we go: I need a domain name, a web hosting services, and website (a page at least). There’re a lot of sites that sell domain names, but WA suggested us using http://www.1and1.com/, so I did and here my story begins… Guys, this "1 and 1" people SUCK BIG TIME. I registered with them on Thursday night (NZ time). They claim to get everything done for 24 hours with a little exception for some special situations where they claim to do it for 48 hours. Guess what: 5 (that’s five) days later (my situation must be VERY special) I still got no domain name :( I sent them a whole bunch of emails trying to get it done, and they responded almost always very promptly, but nothing was done… They asked me to call their authorization department (which is closed on weekends) saying that their some authorization mismatching (what kind of mismatching for registering a $5.99 domain name??), they assured me that their administration is going to take care of it and contact me back. Guess what: NADA.
Luckily, I didn’t give them my credit card, but registered with my PayPal account. So, I cancelled (took me a few tries) my “merchant relationship” with them, which they set to recurring $200.00 (why would they do that for a $5.99 payment?) and now out and about looking for a new site to buy a domain name.
Well, that’s it for me. I have started by the way a direct link campaign, but about it in the next chapter ;) That's my affliate link to Wealthy Affiliate:
