Affiliate Website

I was pretty excited when I found the Blog i360 affiliate program this morning. Until I found out that they are excluding me, my company, and a whole bunch of other affiliate marketers.

Once again, a really great program was developed with lots of thought for the marketers. (this is in no way a slam on their program, it looks great. That’s why I wanted to signup.) But they missed out on a very important factor to every affiliate on the planet.

How we get paid.

Once again, a promising program has assumed that all affiliates and companies that could and should promote their product can only have Paypal as a payment option. A huge mistake. One that I keep seeing time and time again.

Let me explain this to the powers that be over at Blog i360 and other programs that miss this important part of setting up an affiliate program. You see, there are lots of companies and marketers that do not accept Paypal in any way, shape, or form. Some of the biggest sites on the web do not market programs that require Paypal because it’s part of their payment acceptance policy. As far as solo marketers go, many just want to see a check each month.

Like me.

I have had issues with Paypal that have made me make it a policy not to do business with them. In turn, this policy extends to companies that only offer the option for Paypal. I won’t go into the reasons why, but if you are looking for Paypal horror stories, you can find them here.

Bottom line is this. I want to have a check mailed to me each and every month from every affiliate program I promote. It helps with accounting and lots of other things.

Plus, there’s just something about that feeling of accomplishment when you walk out to the mailbox and find those checks waiting for you.

So come on Blog i360 ! Add some options and let this pro affiliate market your program. I’m chomping at the bit to get a piece of those great recurring payouts your affiliate page offers.
