How To Set Up Your Affiliate Links

LOGGING INTO YOUR ACCOUNT:

Our affiliate program is administered through Commission Junction –- so you will need to go to www.commissionjunction.com and enter your login ID and password to ACCESS your account. If you ever forget your login, just click on "login help" on that same page. Once you are inside your publisher administration area, you can view click-thru and commission statistics, get code to add new links to your site, and update your personal information -- just follow the TABS at the top of the page.

NAVIGATING TO THE LINKS PAGE:

Getting started is easy…

1) Log in to Commission Junction at www.commissionjunction.com
2) Go to the "Get Links" tab on your publisher admin page, under the "General Categories" tab, choose "Home and Garden" and then"Furniture".
3) If you do not see OnlineOrganizing.Com, increase the amount of affiliates that you can view or click on the next page.
4) Choose "OnlineOrganizing.com". This will generate a popup page that describes each affiliate's program. Scroll to the bottom of this popup and choose "apply to program"
5) Check back on your publisher account within 48 hours and you will have been "approved" and then you will be able to Click on "View Links"

THE DIFFERENT KINDS OF LINKS YOU CAN CHOOSE FROM:

Once you are at the "View Links" area, you will find a variety of link OPTIONS -- text links, graphic links, full articles that you can put on your site, even our entire product catalog as a "virtual storefront". And different links go to different sections on our website -- our product catalog, free tips, information about becoming an organizer, newsletters, etc. So it's easier than ever to send visitors to a SPECIFIC page. If you would like a link to a specific product or page and don't see it in the "Get Links" area, let us know and we'll see if we can add it.

SETTING UP YOUR LINKS:

Just select the link you want to add to your site and click on Get HTML CODEat the far right for that link. All you have to do is copy and paste the code into the appropriate spot on your website. The code will already have your unique publisher/affiliate information embedded in it -– so whenever someone clicks on that link and makes a purchase, the system will record the sale in your account. Please do not attempt to CHANGE the size, colors, or layout of the graphic links -– if you need another size or help formatting a link to fit your site, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.

WHAT KINDS OF LINKS CUSTOMERS ARE LOOKING FOR:

Our customers are across the board -- pretty much anyone who needs to get organized! We sell to individuals, families, businesses, schools, and even government agencies. The types of PRODUCTS each might buy are different -- but all have the potential to earn you big COMMISSIONS. For example, a large company is more likely to buy several metal filing cabinets or enough binders and desk organizers for an entire department -- while a family that is organizing the whole house might purchase several thousand dollars worth of closet systems. And many of our customers order dozens of small items (books, tapes, racks, software, and miscellaneous home/office organizers) at once, creating an order worth a couple hundred dollars.

LINKS FOR PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZERS:

Not only are Professional Organizers great customers for our organizing products (for both themselves and their clients), but we also sell a number of products that are geared more toward helping Organizers succeed in BUSINESS. If you are part of the organizing community, you can let organizers know about the many start-up manuals, marketing guides, mentoring programs, and promotional products we offer. You might include a link on your site encouraging organizers to join our REFERRAL network (at OnlineOrganizing.Com Referal Network) -- you earn a commission on their registration fees. You can also link to our OnlineOrganizing Academy TRAINING PROGRAM (at http://www.onlineorganizing.com/BecomeAnOrganizer.asp?content=C11EnrollInTraining) for new organizers -- a full training lesson sells for $400, so that's a nice high-commission item.

LINKS FOR POTENTIAL ADVERTISERS:

We offer a number of ways for business to ADVERTISE with OnlineOrganizing.com (at http://www.onlineorganizing.com/Advertise.asp?content=C09SponsorOptions) -- and these purchases can also earn you a commission. Just send any potential advertisers to our site through your affiliate link, and when they check out, your account will be credited for the commission.

OTHER SECTIONS TO LINK TO:

As a recognized leader in the industry, we've also developed a strong organizing COMMUNITY that loyal visitors return to for help -- with discussion boards, blogs, live advice, newsletters, and free tips. If you're looking for a way to provide additional VALUE to your visitors, you can link to these different sections as well. And don't worry, each of these content pages offers suggestions of organizing products that relate to that topic -- so you still have plenty of chances for a sale!

INCLUDING OUR CONTENT ON YOUR SITE:

The key to a successful website is CONTENT -- that's what increases your search engine rankings and keep visitors coming back for more! We can provide you with dozens of ARTICLES (with your affiliate link embedded in them) that you can post directly on your own site to improve your content. We have articles on organizing your space, time, paper, and mental attitude -- as well as articles on being a better small business person.

PUTTING UP LINKS THAT WILL DRAW TRAFFIC:

You have to give people a REASON to click through a link -- so just putting up a banner or graphic link without any description generally isn't as effective as including some text with it. So even if you do use our graphic links, be sure to include a DESCRIPTION -- a couple of sentences explaining why people should follow that link and what's waiting for them on the other end. If you need help with this wording, let us know and we'll be glad to send you something appropriate. And if you have any questions about merging our links into your web design or layout, give us a shout and we'll be happy to help.

OUR PRODUCT CATALOG:

One of the fastest ways to really boost your commissions is to set up our product CATALOG on your own site. You have two options for doing this:

1) Set up a simple banner link to our main product catalog page (found in your "get links" selection at CJ)

2) Set up a link to any product in our catalog by clicking "view products" (in your "get links" section at CJ) and then typing a product name or keyword in the search box

3) Set up our "virtual storefront" that allows you to link directly to any -- or all -- of the products we sell at OnlineOrganizing.com

SETTING UP A VIRTUAL STOREFRONT:

This option allows you to link directly to any -- or all -- of the products we sell at OnlineOrganizing.com (instead of simply linking to the main product catalog page and requiring visitors to search for the product they want). Visitors will come to your site, see each product listing and be able to add them to their CART directly through your site –- then we handle the checkout. It’s almost like you have your OWN catalog of thousands of products, without the work. If you are interested in setting up our product catalog, please contact the Commission Junction Technical Support team:

1) Click the "Contact Us" link in your CJ account manager

2) Click the "Go" link under "Ask a Question"

3) Type "Request Product Catalog" in the subject line

4) Type "Request Product Catalog" in the body

5) For the category, scroll to "Data Transfer (Publishers)"

6) For the subcategory, scroll to "Product Catalog (Publishers)"

7) Submit the request and be sure to get a reference number

Technical support will provide you with the code you need to place our entire catalog -- or any individual products -- on your site. Please note that while setting up simple banner links is free, there is a $200 programming fee for including the virtual storefront on your site -- but that's a one-time fee for all of Commission Junction, and allows you to set up any other affiliate storefront on your site, as well.

THE KEY TO HIGH AFFILIATE COMMISSION LINKS:

You can't just put one banner up on your site and expect to earn thousands of dollars a month in commissions. You can earn a nice passive income from your OnlineOrganizing.com links, but you need to do a few things:

  • put up LOTS of links -- link to different sections of our website, link to many different products, include our articles and other content as links, and talk about OnlineOrganizing.com in your emails to your own site visitors -- give people lots of opportunities to earn you some commissions

  • include some kind of DESCRIPTION explaining why people should visit that link -- a graphic banner isn't nearly as effective as you putting up a paragraph with it telling people that you think OnlineOrganizing.com is the greatest organizing resource on the web or highlighting a specific product that you love and recommend they check out -- make it PERSONAL and they're more likely to click through

  • promote our SALES and web specials -- we will send you information on our monthly sales, organizing holidays, and events at our site so you have new ways to promote OnlineOrganizing.com each month


  • don't forget that you can also earn commissions on ANY website sale, not just the products in our catalog -- if you bring us a new site advertiser, encourage organizers and speakers to sign up for our referral network, help us to sell our OnlineOrganizing Academy training programs -- or anything else -- you earn a COMMISSION on those sales too!
