I recently joined two affiliate programs but did not put too much hope into any one of them. The first one is smorty.com. I wrote three reviews last week and they all got approved. So, that gave me 3×6$=18$ for not much work. It took me 15 minutes on average to do the research and write the reviews. And the best part was that they already paid. The funds are in my PayPal account. So, I’d say that smorty.com is a reliable company that can be trusted.

The second affiliate program was free-leads.net. They provide the lists of verified opt-in email subscribers. There are different levels of membership and the free bronze level gives you 5,000 free leads every month. So, I referred thirty people to them and one of my referrals upgraded. When your referrals upgrade, you get paid 15$. So, someone upgraded yesterday and this morning I already had 15$ in my PayPal account. Great people to deal with. I am happy; I am getting the free monthly leads from them and I am paid when my referrals upgrade.

1. On increasing Traffic. Just currious, but nobody seems to mention Traffic exchanges. Granted they cost time, but many of the users are prime candidates for marketing opportunities as well as product. I have made some very good conversions by using specific splash pages. I have sold Marketing and electronics products with a fairly decent conversion rate. Granted you have to surf to earn trafic, unless you want to pay for it, but on most of the manual exchanges you can surf for an hour a day on four or five sites and realize a very decent return for your time.
