Proof of Payment - CPA Storm June

I haven't thought to do this in the past (and can't guarantee I'll do it 100% of the time in the future) but from time to time, I will post proof of payment shots from affiliate programs. Just so you can see that they do pay.

Here is CPA Storm from June.

Think Action - Energy, Cell and Gambling Survey Panels Added

ThinkAction Network - Make Money!

Think Action has announced the creation of a few new survey panels. They have lead caps on them, so they won't be around forever, but they look to be good ones. They are focused on Energy (for residents of Ontario Canada and south Texas), Cell phones (both Sprint and non-Sprint users) and gambling (United Kingdom).

SayNation Referral Program

SayNation is a newer site started right around 2008/2009. They offer their survey takers daily surveys as well as frequent, higher paying ones that are sent out from time to time. Here is how their referral program works. You are given a numeric code. When you refer people to the site, they are asked for the code of the person that referred them. Right now, if they provide a code, both you and they get 1,200 points for doing so. Bear in mind, you can start cashing out with them once you get just over 10,000 points, so you see how quickly this can add up.

If you haven't joined them yet, you can do so HERE(and my code, if you are so inclined, is 9869885073.

MySurvey Affiliate Program

It's no secret that MySurvey is one of the survey sites that not only rewards their members but also pays nicely for referrals. If you are just a member of the site, you are allowed up to 10 referrals, each paying $1.50. However, if you have your own web site, you can sign up for their referral program which gives you the ability to have permament links on your site where you can refer a limitless number of people.

What do you need to know? You can only refer US members through the affiliate program. Only one member per household. And you, yourself, have to stay active as a survey panelist. By their definition, that means you have to complete at least 5 surveys in a 6 month time period.

If you aren't already with MySurvey, you can sign up HERE.

IPSOS Affiliate Program



One of my absolute best-performing affiliate programs right now is IPSOS. As you may know, IPSOS has their own affiliate program that refers you to Share a Sale and CJ. However, Panthera pays even more per lead than either of those. The click through rates are outstanding.

If you aren't already with IPSOS for surveys themselves, you can sign up HERE

E-Poll Affiliate Program

OFFERSQUEST

One of my better performing programs lately has been E-Poll through OffersQuest. Leads are converting nicely and I have heard good feedback from those who have signed up about the program. I have been doing e-poll surveys for years but always thought the affiliate program hosted through their web site was kind of a waste of time. Last time I looked I think it paid something like 30 cents a lead. The affiliate program at Offersquest is paying $1.25 right now. Big difference.

Lightspeed Great Britain Referral Program



Just got word from Panthera Network that they have increased their payment for referring people to Lightspeed International's Great Britain panel. Previous payment was $1.80 (US) per lead and that has increased to $2.00.

Lightspeed is a strong survey program, especially internationally, so this has proved to be a very good program for many.

Opinion Outpost Affiliate Program

You see, this is where these affiliate programs are interesting. If you refer people to the popular ssurvey site Opinion Outpost through their own affiliate program, you are paid $1 per lead. However, several of the affiliate networks also offer them as an option.

CPA Storm currently has them listed for $1.25. So it's worth digging around, even if a site has it's own affiliate or referral program to see if there are better rates elsewhere.

Lightspeed Affiliate Program

I have had several people write to me lately wondering what happened to Lightspeed International's affiliate program. They used to manage their own referral program through Lightspeed itself. But that went away several years ago. For those of you who like Lightspeed and want to continue to promote it, you can do so right now through Panthera Network. Their current payout (as of 8/18/09) is very good!

Brand Institute VIP Affiliate

BRAND INSTITUTE

I am just thrilled that they have finally brought their VIP affiliate program back. For those of you who like paid surveys, this is absolutely one of the BEST ones out there. They pay well, have a variety of professional panels and their affiliate program is absolutely outstanding. Definitely worth checking out!

Global Test Market - On OffersQuest

OFFERSQUEST

For those of you who were disappointed when Global Test Market discontinued their affiliate program, there is good news. OffersQuest also offers affiliate programs for GTM for both USA and international members. Payouts are good as well. As of this writing, $1.25 for USA members and 30 cents for international panelists.

Panthera Network increases payment for Opinion World



Panthera just put out a notice that their Opinion World program for Great Britain residents increased from $1.30 to $1.80. So if you are looking to promote that program, it's a good time to pick it up!

Think Action - Voice of America

ThinkAction Network - Make Money!

Just got an email that their Voice of America panel was being taken down.

CPA Storm - Discover Card

CPA STORM

They are offering a $65 payout for successful conversions on a Discover card. Outstanding payment!

Think Action

ThinkAction Network - Make Money!

Think Action is probably one of the first affiliate networks I joined. It is strictly surveys and has all of the Greenfield/Ciao surveys listed. Because it is exclusive to them, they tend to pay the best referral or affiliate rates for referring people to these survey panels. They also offer some great international survey panels.

Share A Sale



Share A Sale has a fantastic collection of gift cards affiliates can offer as well as some great freebies. Their tracking is also excellent.

ROI Rocket

ROI Rocket

I just signed up with them two weeks ago, so am still getting a sense of the program and their offers. Dating, surveys and health and beauty seem to be some of their key areas.

OffersQuest

OFFERSQUEST

These guys are definitely one of the go-to sites in terms of survey affiliate programs. For instance, right now, of the 75 offers they have active, 56 are in the "rewards and surveys" category. You have to have your own domain name to sign up with them. I have only recently started working with them, but so far so good.

Commission Junction (CJ)

Commission Junction

They are huge, and established and well known. And they have a little (or in some cases) a lot of everything. Shopping, retail ecommerce, banking, freebies, surveys, international. You name it, they probably have it. That said, as they are one of the biggest out there, I have personally found better payment percentages and structures with some other affiliate sites, but I do like them and have continued to work with them for years.

CPA Storm

CPA STORM


A very stable affiliate program, I have been with CPA Storm for over two years now and have been happy with them, their offers and customer service. They have a wide array of survey affiliate programs.

Logical Media



A newer affiliate network, for me personally. I haven't promoted a ton of offers through them, but what I have done, I have had success with. So far,I have focused on surveys and freebies, but they appear to also have good medical options.

Panthera Network




I joined Panthera Network back in 2008 and have been nothing if not thoroughly impressed. They have a wide array of offers including:

Surveys
Freebies
Family
Shopping
Business to Business
Careers
Work at Home
Coupons and Discounts and much more!

Best, they actually have tons of offers I would actually personally recommend, which is key for me. They are truly one of my favorite networks.

In particular, I am impressed with their customer service for their affiliate publishers. I often get personal emails from my rep alerting me to offers that might work for my sites and offering tips. They send out nearly daily emails letting you know when offers are changing. So when they say you get personal publisher support, they mean it. They also offer some of the best payouts out there. And they have monthly payments and incentive programs.
