5 Affiliate sites you wish you started
This is a short post with some research I’ve been doing into affiliate sites. Not much information to add other than I wish I started these sites and I wish I’d bought uswitch in 2006.
I can’t see auto generated shopping sites having much value since they rely too heavily on Google but the others are going from strength to strength. Confused.com has even been able to switch away from getting paid for sales and now gets paid for every quote instead!
Valued at £1 billion
Valued at £700 million
Sold for £210 million in March 2006
Sold to Yahoo for £318 million in 2004
Sold to eBay for £300 million in June 2005

looked at this and i find that alot of people have some great ideas but they believe that it will fail even before they have even tried, because why has no one else thought of it before me myself am a very hard worker but i have a ability to drive myself to the limits even if people think you would fail i will prove them wrong! i have idea but dont know where it is going this is were i am stuck..! i need to get the name first as a trade mark but i think i may be on to something..! is there much still out there in the form of sites that find everything for u or to help u find things…?

Thanks for opening my eyes to new affiliate sites. I wish people search and discover newer affiliate programs instead of backing and betting on old horses again and again.

Some of the newer affiliate sites have better deals and options in my experience. As a web developer I am constantly searching out new ways of making money as I shuned Google Adwords and tradedoubler a long time ago - profit just seems too diluted. I have since found smaller start-up affiliate companies to work alot better.
