$100 Idea: The most powerful way to generate quality traffic to your website…

Affiliate programs are perhaps the most powerful way to generate quality traffic. An affiliate program is much like engaging a commission salesperson. Each affiliate sends qualified traffic your site through "affiliate links" that record where the visitor came from. If the visitor buys, the affiliate gets a commission on the sale.

If you want to get your affiliates to perform...

Teach them how to promote your product or service.
Give them the tools to do it (banners, text, photos, etc.)
Give them extra incentives to promote your products.

It helps if your affiliate has used or at least reviewed your product or service themselves.

Making a business decision is just common-sense, when you have the facts!
