Complete the thought:

"As An Affiliate I Hate..."


Please post one thing that you hate as affiliate when you look at an affiliate program or a website with an affiliate program. Only one thing (preferably fitting into one line) per post please... I'll start in post #2

Thanks in advance for participating. Very Happy


Franrose Smith

Why not dwell on the positive? What is the point in that mindset?

This reminds me of what I dislike and what must be done to change it.

Unresponsive affiliate managers. What irks me the most is if they are on AIM, and their status isn't Away, yet they don't reply. Then you'll see the go away, come back, sign on/off, etc, so you know they've seen your IM at some point and not gotten back to you...

Certainly this is the most irritation things for all of us as affiliate marketers and our motivational sources comes from money and if we get delay in that, it too ends up with frustration.

Isn't it?

I second this. I don't mind the AIM stuff. If I send you an email, as a hard working affiliate I think I deserve a response even if its outsourced.

I hate not knowing who to trust and what to trust....

If all the reviews on the net are legit or they are just another affiliated site....

ALSO... i hate to look at affiliate product pages that are half screen wide and 20 screens long.... with corny yellow highlighted texts and "A $99 value ABSOLUTELY FREE!" ....

When more experienced marketers hide their best marketing strategies and reveal the obvious.

For me, its two things (sorry if you only wanted one thing, but these two are related):

1. Merchants who knowingly scam people or rip them off with a crappy product.

2. Affiliates who lie, cheat, or steal to make a buck.

Those are my two pet peeves in affiliate marketing... Confused
