I found a brand new affiliate program that I wanted to share with you. A lot of bloggers promote hosting companies and never get a sale. However promoting Triple.com definitely increases those chances.

Triple.com is a domain registrar and web hosting site. You can get hosting for only $3.99 per month (wow) as well as register domains for only $9.99.

Affiliate Program

Triple.com has launched their brand new affiliate program. You can earn up to 30% of all payments made by the customers you refer. So even if you refer them and they register a domain name, you still get commission. Other domain registrars don't give any commission for domains.

The minimum payout for each affiliate is only $20, so even if you manage to get only a few domain sales, you still can make some cash.

Webmaster Referrals

Not only can you earn money promoting Triple.com, you can also earn money by referring other webmasters to the program. Join now and start referring your people to the program. You can earn up to 15% of whatever they earn.

Since the affiliate program is so new, I'm sure there won't be too much of a difficulty referring anyone.

Pepperjam swept through the blogosphere and picked up some great affiliates. What really put Pepperjam over the top was the top bloggers referring. You can say that bloggers really shaped Pepperjam into the affiliate network it has become.

Now Pepperjam is paying back the blogosphere. They are doing so by increasing commission, offering a sign-up bonus, and actually paying bloggers to write about them.

More Commission

For all of July Pepperjam increased their referral commission from $5 to $7. It is just a nicely something extra, but not the best part yet. I've been able to refer 2 more people on that commission.

Sign-up Bonus

For new affiliates, joining the Pepperjam Network will start you with $10 in your account. When joining make sure to click on the banner on this post, otherwise you won't receive the special $10 offer.

Refer and Earn

On top of that, Pepperjam is rewarding bloggers that are posting about them and further promoting their brand. For every post you make you earn $10 per post.

The post can be about anything regarding Pepperjam and you can even include your affiliate referral code!

Our goal here is to make money. However, I found a great opportunity where you can make money and save money. Buying and selling online seems to be more popular than ever.

TypoBuddy.com is the perfect online tool to help you save money when buying online. Typo Buddy helps you find misspelled eBay auctions. Why? Usually misspelled auctions are going to be a lot cheaper because not as many people can find them.

Well that is obviously going to save you money, but how can it make you money?

Typo Buddy is putting their money saving tool, to the test. They are running a contest where if you can find the worst misspelling eBay auction you will win. The prizes are a $30 eBay gift certificate for first and a $20 eBay gift certificate for second.

The contest ends on Monday June 23rd, but there are more contests to come, with more chances to win.

Bloggeries is a great blog directory for any blogger to have their blog listed. The main page is a page rank 6, with the categories ranked as well. Bloggeries also has a forum as well as a blog that does reviews.

Now, you can make money by referring people to the directory. To get listed it costs $34.99 for a permanent link, or $49.99 annually for a featured link.

So what do you get out of that?

For everyone that you refer to the blog directory and buys a listing, you will earn $20 for every sale. You can also earn money for referring friends to the affiliate program. For every sale that your referral makes, you get an additional $5.

The affiliate program has just been announced, so there is plenty of time to start promoting and getting your friends to sign up.

OIOPublisher is a do-it-all wordpress plugin that will allow you to monetize your blog without a middle man. Essentially your plugin acts as your middleman, and you keep 100% of the commmission and earnings. To even have your visitors try to help, you can run your own affiliate program!

You can run the OIOPublisher for link sales, banner ads, rss footer ads and more. You have the option of running it as nofollow if you chose, or you can charge more for people who want dofollow. You really have to buy the plugin to explore all of the options it has.

The downside of the plugin is that you do have to buy it, however it is a small fee. The plugin runs for $37, but you only have to buy it once for all of your blogs.

If you use the coupon code QWERTY-5 before May 20th, 2008 you can save $5 on it. I've already used a coupon to buy the plugin.

The plugin isn't active on this blog (because its on blogger), but you can see it in action at Blog About Your Blog. The banner space that is currently for sale (only $20 for a month), is run by the plugin.

I've already made back the money I've spent on the plugin by promoting it and making sales. It's a must have for any serious Wordpress user looking to monetize their blog.

Affiliates have felt the power of bloggers and many are sponsoring contests to let people know about them. The more affiliates the better! Thats exactly what Copeac is doing at Blog about your Blog.

The Pepperjam Network has launched (or re-launched) with huge success and praised by bloggers. I reviewed Pepperjam on my blog about a month ago and have already earned 50$ just for referring bloggers to their service.

Affiliates for Bloggers

What some affiliate programs lack is things for bloggers to promote. Those who blog about blogging, personal blogs, making money online, etc. Pepperjam offers affiliates like ReviewMe, Text-Link-Ads and SeoMoz.

If that isn't your category there are tons of clothing, health, technology, computer, and men or women affiliates.

Setting Themselves Apart

Two things, in my opinion, set apart Pepperjam from other companies.

Number 1, their affiliate support is amazing. Several inquiries I have sent were answered within a day. Not only that you can Instant Message them directly with their own IM system.

Number 2, is Pepperjam Ads. Pepperjam Ads are similar to Google Adsense, however you promote your affiliates. So it's just like any other banner or text link, but in the form of text ads. On certain ad blocks on my blog, I like to rotate Google Adsense and Pepperjam Ads.
