Search for an affiliates script

[nilyab]

Hi

This is the first time I have posted on this particular forum. I am trying to decide on the affiliates script, which is my reason for this thread. The script would be used to set up an "affiliates" system for marketing my e-book, now described at http://linux2-cs.johnabbott.qc.ca/~ed (a work site for developing the book). The book is called "Searching the Internet to the Max."

I am in the process of setting up some arrangements with:

- a web hosting company (RealityHosting.com, in Ontario, Canada), for advertising, an affiliates script, and possibly a membership script, as well as for initiating orders;

- a content host for my e-book's PDF file (likely one in the UK), linked to for downloading the e-book;

- an e-commerce host, Paypal, or, more likely, Paysystems.

What do you think of the script supplied at http://www.vixne.com/affiliatenet.html? Also, do you have any opinions on which e-commerce site I might use, starting with the two I mentioned, but possibly including others?

For those who have heard of my book before, say, on other forums at this site, please reexamine the 3 versions of the book now proposed, along with how they might be marketed. What do you think of this approach to packaging the materials? (I realize that I forgot to mention that the printed version is about 600 pages.)

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hi Ed, There are a whole host of affiliate management scripts out there. It depends if you want an installed script on your server, or you want a 3rd party to host your affiliate program. They come both ways. You usually pay more for the hosting and management by a 3rd party, but you don't have the management overhead involved with it as some of them do everything for you. If you install a script on your server then you have to keep track and make payments, etc. It's all up to what you want.

Do a search for:

affiliate program scripts

or something like that. There are a bundle of them.

Hello again, everyone. It has been a while. Please see my post at http://www.ihelpyouservices.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=131492#post131492, which gives you the coordinates for my book, which is now on the market (or almost).
