1.
What is an affiliate program?
An affiliate program helps you make money by allowing you
to affiliate (associate) yourself with an existing website,
and earn referral fees by referring visitors to the website.
You have an opportunity to make money 24 hours a day, seven
days a week.

I have heard that some affiliate
programs pay you just for referring
visitors, and others only pay you
if the visitor buys something. How
does your affiliate program work?
Our affiliate program pays affiliates when visitors buy something.
This can be the first time a visitor visits the site or up
to one year later. The affiliate software we use is very sophisticated
and does a great job of keeping track of visitors. (More about
this below.)

4.
How do you calculate referral fees?
Affiliates earn referral fees for every visitor they direct
to our website that results in a sale. It does not matter
whether visitors order online, pay by sending us a check,
or by having their purchase billed to their phone bill.
Affiliates will
also earn $8 for
visitors that purchase “The
Ultimate Guide To Improving Your Credit” if
the visitor was referred to our website
by a sub-affiliate the affiliate signed
up. (More about this below.)

5.
How do I refer visitors to your
website?
You can refer visitors to our website using several different
marketing methods and materials we provide to help ensure
your success:
- Place banners ads we provide on
your website (quickest way)
- Ezines (electronic newsletters)
- Classifieds
- Opt-in e-mail

6.
Can I become an affiliate if I don’t
have a website?
Yes, there are many ways you can refer users to our website
without having your own website.
- You can buy opt-in e-mail lists
and send out professionally written
e-mails we provide that emphasize
the benefits of “The Ultimate
Guide To Improving Your Credit” course.
- You can be a paid advertiser,
or sponsor existing Internet newsletters
(ezines), and point readers to our
website.
- Start a newsletter about something
you are knowledgeable in or enjoy
doing and include a section that
talks about “The Ultimate
Guide To Improving Your Credit”.
- Participate in newsgroups and
forums by asking and answering questions.
At the bottom of all your questions
and answers make sure to include
the unique website address we give
you (the one with your affiliate
ID at the end). This will refer
readers to our website using your
unique affiliate ID.
We will provide
you with professionally developed
e-mails, classified ads, and banners
that work for each of the above methods.
Suggestion: Create
a website that contains links to a
variety of affiliate programs you
are associated with, and explain why
you are recommending the product or
service. You will be surprised how
much money you can make with very
little effort.

What is the best way for me to promote
your website?
Different things work differently for different people. We
have had the greatest success promoting other websites by
taking the time to understand the product or service, and
endorse it as one we have used or would use.
[back to top]
8.
How do you know if I refer a user
to your site?
You will refer users to our website using a unique web address
we assign to you. No other affiliate will have this web address.
We create the address by combining www.newcreditfilesecrets.com
with a unique identifier that will be your affiliate ID.
Example: http://www.newcreditfilesecrets.com/cgi-bin/34543 where
34543 represents a unique affiliate
ID.
Using
software, your affiliate ID will
get stored in a cookie on the user's
computer. Whether the user decides
to purchase the first time they
visit our site, or up to one year
later, we look to see if they have
a cookie. If they do, we read it
to get your affiliate ID, and give
you credit for the sale.

9.
How do I know if I am successfully
referring users to your site?
When you sign up to become
an affiliate we will provide you with a user ID and
password. You will use your user ID and password to
log into the affiliate section of our website where
you will be able to view how many users you have referred,
and of those users, how many have bought "The
Ultimate Guide To Improving Your Credit.

After becoming an affiliate I wanted
to test your tracking system so
I visited your site 10 times using
my unique website address. Then
I logged into the affiliate section
using my affiliate ID to see how
many visitors I referred to your
website, and it only showed one.
Actually, the affiliate software is doing what it is supposed
to. In order for affiliates to receive accurate information
on the number of visitors they refer to our site, the affiliate
software checks to see if a visitor has already visited the
site, and if they have, it does not count them again.
If the affiliate
software counted repeat visitors,
this would be very misleading for
affiliates. Think about it, an affiliate
may log in to check their stats and
see that they referred 200 visitors
to the site, but only 2 of them purchased
product. By not counting repeat visitors,
the affiliate software provides more
accurate reporting.

11.
I have several websites. Can I have
more than one affiliate ID so that
I know which of my sites are referring
the most visitors to your website?
Yes, you may sign up to be an affiliate as many times as you
want. Each time you sign up, provide a different ID. This
will allow you to use different affiliate IDs when referring
visitors to our website.
You don’t
have to have several websites to use
this functionality. You may want to
do this if you refer visitors to our
website from several different pages
within the same website, or if you
want to determine which e-mail campaigns
are most effective.

12.
How do I receive my commissions?
We calculate affiliate commissions on the first business day
of every month, and send out checks within two business days.

13.
What is a two-tier affiliate program?
A two-tier affiliate
program is an affiliate program that
pays referral fees two levels deep.
What this means is that you can make
money two ways . One way is to refer
visitors to our site that end up buying "The
Ultimate Guide To Improving Your Credit".
A second way is for you to refer visitors
to our site that end up signing up
to become an affiliate also.
Level 1 - Example:
If you refer Bob
to our site and Bob buys "The
Ultimate Guide To Improving Your Credit",
you will earn $12.
Level 2 - Example:
Let's say you refer
Pam to our site and Pam also becomes
an affiliate. Now, Pam goes and promotes
our site. If visitors that come to
our site as a result of Pam's efforts
buy "The Ultimate Guide To Improving
Your Credit", Pam will earn $12 and
you will earn $8.
The fact that you can earn $8 as
a result of Pams' efforts is what
makes this a two-tier affiliate program.

There are a lot of affiliate programs – why
should I join this one?
While your number one goal to join an affiliate program is
probably to make money, you should also ask yourself the following
questions:
- Have I successfully used this
product or service myself?
- If I needed a product or service
like this, would I buy this one?
- How good is the affiliate support?
If I sent an e-mail to the company
how quickly would they respond?
- How often do customers request
a refund for this product or service?
- When refund requests are made,
how quickly are they provided?
- Is it a one or two-tier affiliate
system?
- How does the affiliate program
ensure that I get paid?
The answers you
get to the above questions will greatly
determine how much money you can make.
Think about it, do you want to associate
yourself with a website just to make
money, or do you want to feel good
about the service or product you are
promoting? The reason we listed the
above questions is because we can
honestly and confidently make the
following statements:
- “The Ultimate Guide To Improving
Your Credit” has helped thousands
of people.
- We always respond to e-mail within
24 hours.
- We have received very few refund
requests, and those we received
were granted refunds within two
business days – no questions
asked.
- newcreditfilesecrets.com supports
a two-tier affiliate model.
- We do our best to ensure affiliates
get paid.

What happens if I refer someone
to your site and they don’t
pay online?
Our order form asks them to check the top left corner of their
screen and include the referring affiliate if one exists.
[back to top]
16.
Can I take the order on my website
and send you the information afterwards?
No. For a number of reasons:
- Our website is very successful
when it comes to turning visitors
into buyers.
- We constantly update the website
to include new ordering alternatives,
product and pricing changes, and
promotional offers.
- It would be unrealistic to expect
affiliates to make these changes.
[back
to top]
17.
Can I send a text link including
my affiliate ID out in e-mails?
Yes, and that is often an extremely powerful way to generate
traffic. However, as per our affiliate agreement, you can
only:
- Send a text link to individuals
that have specifically requested
information from you.
- Send a text link to individuals
whose e-mail addresses exist in
opt-in e-mail lists that you have
legally obtained.
IMPORTANT
- The direct or indirect generation
of unsolicited e-mail (SPAM) is
illegal and not allowed.
- You must adhere to the above guidelines.
Any deviation from the above guidelines
will result in your immediate removal
from the affiliate program.
- All pending and future revenues
generated from your efforts will
become the sole property of www.newcreditfilesecrets.com.
