Affiliate - DotNet, Third party, Inhouse, Affiliate network, which one

[AjiNIMC]

Hi,

I have 3 questions:

1) Which affiliate 3rd party application will you suggest for dot net platform?
2) There are affiliate network like cj (help me name more), how can I use them along with 3rd party application installed.
3) Should I go for making an inhouse application?

Thanks,
Aji

1). not sure

2). With CJ, you don't need a 3rd party affiliate program. CJ is the affiliate network, program and commission processor. This is a great choice if you don't want to worry about sending out all of the checks, essentially you just had to keep enough money in your CJ.com account to handle all of the commissions. By being part of the network, you will also get free advertising to the affiliates looking for your products/services.

cons: fees (I don't know the exact fees)

3). Building Your Own

Pros: Get the exact functionality that you want/need. Ability to change functionality as needed. No additional fees after it has been built.

Cons: Having to handle all of the commission payments and affiliate communication and servicing. No additional Free advertising (compared to network).
