1. What is an affiliate scheme?
An affiliate scheme is a system whereby webmasters advertise and promote
the products and services of a merchant thus becoming an affiliate. The affiliates
drive traffic to the merchant's website and when the visitor makes a purchase
the affiliate is credited with a commission. This allows webmasters of highly
ranked and high-traffic sites to make money from their website, at no cost
to themselves, and allows merchants to increase traffic to their sites, and
thus increase sales.
2. Can anyone apply to be an affiliate?Yes, anybody with a website can apply. We will look at your site and decide
whether it would be appropriate for what we do. We will not accept applications
from websites which are pornographic in nature, nor from sites which promote
hatred or illegal activity of any kind.
3. Why should I choose you over other schemes available?
Most affiliate schemes will pay on average, around 6% commission but don't
allow you to see the exact amount you'll be receiving. We believe our scheme
to be more generous and we will show you what you could earn before you fully
commit to joining.
Once you have signed up, clicking on the website links on the right will show
you product samples and the revenue you could be earning from each sale.
NB: Signing up doesn’t mean you are committed to becoming an affiliate,
only when you place banners or links on your site will you then be able to
earn.
4. How long has your company been trading?
We have been trading since 1997 and led the way on the internet with regards
to speed camera detectors.
5. Is there a minimum and maximum amount of time I
have to sign up for?
There are no restrictions on the length of time for being an affiliate.
6. Is there a minimum payout each month?
For administration purposes, the minimum payment amount will be £100.
If the sales commission does not achieve that target in a month, it will
be carried over into subsequent month(s) until it does.
7. Is there a maximum payout each month?
Hell no, the more people buy, the happier everyone will be!
8. How will I know a sale has gone through from my site?
You will receive email notification along with the facility to log into
your affiliate control panel which will show you the amount earned in real
time.
9. I have more than one site. Can I put your ads on all
of them?
Yes, you can use your affiliate control panel to put banners on as many
sites as you please.
10. Will
my affiliate control panel be secure?
Yes, the server has an SSL certificate and your login and password will
be unique to you. You can change your password at anytime through your control
panel.
11. How
do I put your banners on my site?
In your affiliate control panel click on the Banners/Links link
in the navigation on the left. Here you can view all our banners and pick
which one you think will best suit your site. Underneath each banner is a
text box and the words Code to insert to your page:. Just select the
code in the textarea and copy it to the clipboard, then paste it into your
HTML page wherever you think it would look best.
In the case of text banners, you can add whatever style markup you like
to make the text fit better into the look and feel of your site.
12. How
do I get paid?
Company cheque.
13. When
do I get paid?
Cheques will be despatched in the first 1-7 days of each calendar month
to cover commissions from the previous month. ( January may vary )
14. Do
I have to advertise all of your sites and products?
The choice is yours, whatever you are comfortable with.
15. How
do I change my payment details?
You can change all of your details, including payment address etc, through
the Profile option in your affiliate control panel.
16. How
long does the referral cookie last?
The referral cookie will last for 7 days and covers all of our sites.
What this means is that if you refer someone to one of our sites looking
for a radar detector, for example, but they decide not to buy it, the cookie
is still stored on their machine for a week. If they should later find one
of our sites through Google and decide to buy an in-car DVD player, then
you would get the commission for the DVD player.
Or even better for both of us, if they bought the radar detector the first
time that you referred them to us, and then subsequently found us through
Google and bought the DVD player, you would get the commission on both sales.
We currently have four sites in the affiliate network with a wide range
of products, and will be adding more sites and products over the next few
months.
17. How
do I create a text link to a different page than the default landing page?
In your affiliate control panel there is a link for Custom Dynamic
Link. Clicking on this link creates a pop-up which asks for the page
you wish to direct users to, the title of the link and any description
you wish to enter. After you've entered these details it will give you
the HTML code which you need to put into your page. These links are bare
of any style markup, so please feel free to add style tags to make the
link fit in with the design of your site.
You may want to use these links if you want to direct users to specific
product pages rather than a site homepage.
18. How
do I create a banner link to a different page than the default landing
page?
In the Banners/Links section of your control panel, you will see
that every banner has a Dynamic Link link in its title bar. Clicking
on this creates a pop-up which asks where you want to direct visitors too.
Once you enter the destination URL it will give you the HTML code to put
into your page.
You may want to use these links if you want to direct users to specific
product pages rather than a site homepage.

20. Can I copy text and images from your sites for use in my affiliate site ?
You may use our text from our sites only if you rewrite at least 80% of the content - this is because Google will see this as duplicate content otherwise and not benefit either one of us and possibly cause us both harm. Images may also be used. This licence to use the text information and images in this way is only granted whilst you are an active affiliate for us and we or you have not cancelled your affiliate agreement with ourselves.
