Overall, we were very impressed with ClickBank’s website. We like that the company offers customers a one-stop shop for affiliate marketing needs. We also liked that ClickBank features a blog on its site to update customers on company news, as well as a Tool and Resource section to educate consumers about general business and marketing topics.

• Over 10,000 product publishers in its database, and over 100,00 registered affiliates.
• Every product comes with 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

ClickBank’s website is generally very professional and well-organized, making it a great way to help promote your business and products. The only thing that disappointed us about ClickBank was its lack of a customer service help line. While customer support is available via FAQ lists, e-mail forms, and a fax number, none of these options provide customers with immediate service. However, aside from this fact, we definitely think that ClickBank is a great resource for both advertisers and publishers alike. They receive 5.0 Stars!

Link Connector’s homepage immediately made us want to learn more about the company, due to its bright colors and well-designed layout. We found navigating the site to be enjoyable and easy, especially with the help of the convenient FAQ pages posted throughout the site contents.

• A number of original commissions programs, including Pay Per Call and Pay Per Go.
• Naked Link Technology System allows sites to appear more editorial.

Link Connector is not as established as other affiliate networks, and only offers about 200 merchants within its system. However, we were impressed with Link Connector’s innovative affiliate technologies, include the Naked Link system and FraudFREE Protection device. We also noticed that Link Connector offers more commission options than most other sites we found, including Pay Per Go and Pay Per Lead among the standard account features.

We were a bit disappointed that Link Connector does not have a phone number to call for help, but found that its detailed website did a good job of providing almost all of the information we needed to know about the company. The only question we were left wondering was, what exactly are the commission rates, and how are they paid? We were able to get sample commissions in the Featured Merchants section, but would have liked to see more in-depth payment info somewhere on the site. Star Reviews gives them 5.0 Stars!

We were very impressed with LinkShare’s website, which features a fresh and modern design that is both easy to navigate and pleasing to the eye. We noticed that LinkShare offers advertisers more marketing avenues than most websites, including options for search marketing, lead generation, and affiliate marketing programs.

• Annual symposiums and summits to educate and inform businesses.
• Direct deposit available.

One of our favorite things about the LinkShare website is that it offers online help and advice for affiliate marketers and the payment threshold is just $1 (meaning you get your commissions when you want them without having to wait for a $100 minimum or more). The LinkShare. LinkShare.EDU portion of the site contains web seminars for both advertisers and publishers, and the annual symposiums, summits, and industry appearances are all great opportunities for customers to get informed.

LinkShare’s only major flaw is that it does not provide adequate customer service for affiliates. The Contact Us section only includes an e-mail support form and a toll-free number to utilize for submitting suggestions and inquiries. However, in our opinion, LinkShare’s benefits can outweigh its disadvantages. If you want to expand your affiliate portfolio, you should check out the site. We give them 5.0 Stars!

Share A Sale definitely provided us with a great research experience. We loved the colorful site design and well-organized layout, and were glad to see that the Share A Sale website is pretty straightforward and to the point. We did not have any trouble finding information about the company’s services, products, or pricing. That's a rare occurrence in the affiliate network market.

• Merchant and affiliate demos to teach customers about the program.
• Regularly updated Share A Sale Blog with company news and findings.

We really liked the blog that is used to regularly update customers on company news and information. We also thought that the Featured Merchant section was a great touch, as it offers new customers a quick and easy way to access special deals and offers with major affiliates.

Sign-up was a breeze. It took less than five minutes from start to finish and once we were registered there were hundreds of affiliate offers to choose from.

The only improvement that Share A Sale could make on its website would be to include a toll-free customer service number geared more towards affiliate publishers. Overall, however, we still think that Share A Sale is a great company, and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an affiliate marketing program – especially the novice affiliate marketer.  Share A Sale earns 5.0 Stars!

When we first entered the Azoogle Ads website, we liked the bright colors and easy-to-navigate menus. We also liked that the site gives customers the option to check their application status right from the main page. However, we were surprised to find that most of the links in the site menu brought us back to one or two main pages that did not really go into much detail about the services offered.

• Option to design your own online campaigns in a matter of minutes.
• Search engine management and optimization techniques.

Another problem with this site is the fact that they don't offer instant sign-up. You have to wait for them to approve your application manually. Considering you don't get a whole lot of info letting you know exactly what you're applying for, this is a bit of a drawback.

Is Azoogle Ads the best affiliate network on the Web? Not by far. If you really need more affiliate programs to promote, go for it. Otherwise you'll find more user-friendly options elsewhere on the Web. Azoogle earns 4.0 Stars!
