I was wondering if you guys have a site where you have affliate for amazon or other sites where they sell laptops or computers.
It seems like you guys are selling products that have not been heard from many people... |

TigerDirect.com has an affiliate program, it starts at 2% commission and goes up to 4% once you reach $10,000 in total sales.
Most other computer programs pay low percentages as well.

I read some bad things about Tigerdirect. Please research further before you join the program.

Actually from a adware point of view, they are one of the best merchants to deal with. They went adware free a while back and won't deal with these types of programs.
This means, you won't have those links hijacked by adware when an infected visitor is on your site.
If I had a site on computer stuff, I would use them.
Why don't you like them?

It's not their affiliate program I'm upset with, but rather the company itself. When you sign up for an account before your first order they ask you for inappropriate information, such your income, cars, etc. This is not mandatory, but I have seen slightly lower conversion rates because of it.
I don't want to get into all the details about their marketing practices, product misleadings, etc. but you're more than welcome to read more here:

One challenge Rupert has found as an affiliate of TigerDirect is that he has had to spend more time updating affiliate links than he expected.
TigerDirect has very low prices, which it achieves by arranging special purchasing deals. That 's great - until TigerDirect runs out of certain products.
If you're trying to maximize your earnings by linking directly to individual products, suddenly you'll find you're providing a link to a product that is no longer for sale.
One option is to link to TigerDirect's main page or to general categories instead of to individual products. This reduces the time you have spend updating links, but it also reduces your sales.
So if you're planning to be a TigerDirect affiliate, be prepared to spend time each week checking that your affiliate links are still working.

anything else, besides tigerdirect? something that also doesn't dance with adware?
i also have computer site in mind and was thinking of going for tigerdirect, but after reading previous posts, I'm not exactly thrilled about them. |

You can try surplus computers. The AM is Andy. He was the AM at tigerdirect before and erik took over from him when he left. But now i think erik is also leaving TD.
TD has a good range of products and price. But i have heard enough horror stories about TD that i did not motivate me to join. Lets see if they change. I too am looking for a good computer merchant. I will let you know if i find any.
