SCAM Software Affiliate Programs Revealed!
by: Ettione Stuckey
Read this special article before you consider joining or paying for a "Software Affiliate Program".
There are honest internet merchants and an equal number of dishonest merchants operating on the World Wide Web. The dishonest merchants would never look at the affiliates of their software affiliate programs as business partners. These people would look at the affiliates as "the tools" to increase their sales. They model the software affiliate programs to suit their purpose of getting revenues, while the welfare of the affiliates is usually kept at bay.
It is necessary for you to know about some of the most prominent ways in which the owners of the software affiliate program cheats you. One commonly practiced method of fleecing the affiliates is "blocking of information". The merchants usually do not inform the affiliates of any recent increase in their commission of selling the software products. The affiliates who closely monitor the market, can demand it from them. But, if you don't approach them, they won't let you know about it.
Another widely used method is the use of your products as decoys for the real products they sell. The software products that they ask you to sell through the software affiliate programs are not the products they are actually selling. They use you just to drive the traffic for them. When the visitors approach their site to buy the product, they will have to pick from one of the alternative products. The persons running the software affiliate programs don't have to pay you any commission this way.
There are many software affiliate programs run discreetly in this model. It has indeed become very essential for you to carefully establish the credentials of the software before you join them. If you end up with one of the fraud merchants functional on the web, all your ads and banners to generate traffic will be in vain. You should join the software affiliate programs that have very clean reputations in the market.
