Linking & Traffic
Do I have to download images & banners?
No you don't. We currently host all banners here so you don't have to download them ... or worry about bandwidth issues!
How does your system track the visitors I send?
All the affiliate links include a unique ID that identifies you as the referrer. As soon as your visitor arrives on our website they are flagged as your referral. We record the code in a cookie and as soon as they complete a Photobuyer or Photographer registration you will be credited with the lead.
Is there a limit to the number of links I can set up?
None at all. We recommend a variety of designs and sizes to ensure you appeal to as wide an audience as possible. We'll add new creatives on a regular basis, so check in often and see what's new.
Can I use links in Emails and Newsletters
Most definitely, as long as you are only sending to opt-in subscribers! We have a zero tolerance policy on spam, so if we get complaints you risk having your account cancelled!
Can I use PPC ads in Google, Yahoo, Facebook etc?
You are welcome to run PPC ads in the major search engines, as long as the words or phrases are suitably relevant to the landing page and your ads are not misleading to the visitor.
