[RULES] Affiliate Programs

[Beth Dickens]

Welcome to the affiliate programs section!

This section exists for you to discuss everything around the topic of being an affiliate. Note that if you wish to discuss anything regarding CPA, that we have a dedicated CPA section here.

Before you post in this section, know that if you want to discuss a specific affiliate program, please use one of the affiliate subforums located at the top of this section.

• Clickbank​

• CJ Affiliate​

• Other Affiliate Programs

• Zero Parallel & T.UK​

Contrary to popular belief, and only under a specific circumstance, affiliate and referral links are permitted in this section as described in rule 4 of the BHW TOS.

4. AFFILIATE LINKS

Affiliate links are permitted only in the "Affiliate Programs" section of the forum, or in your signature. Affiliate links include links to your website or blog which redirects to an affiliate link. If you wish to let people know about a new website or program, please create ONE thread in the Affiliate Programs forum and provide detailed information about the program, and include two links. One should be an affiliate link and one a non-affiliate link. You MUST give others the choice to sign up through your link. Also, do not try to circumvent the Terms by posting about an affiliate program, and requesting others to private message you for additional information. Such conduct is no different than affiliate link spam. In those circumstances BlackHatWorld.com reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove your affiliate link, and to issue an infraction or implement a ban, upon notification of any violation of this Section 4.

To translate this, those wishing to post affiliate links in this section must abide by the following rules

• The website or program must be a new one that you are not associated with (outside of being an affiliate marketer).
• You must provide 1 non-affiliate link and 1 affiliate link for the website or program. Do not attempt to hide the non-affiliate link.
• You must provide detailed information about the website and program. BHW mods will ultimately decide what is enough information.
• The affiliate link cannot be one for a competing website, marketplace, or forum.
