Detailed Affiliate Information

All products on this site are sold through Clickbank.com. As an affiliate, when you refer people to this site by promoting the products offered here, you'll earn a 35% commission on anything they buy.

For example, if you promote a membership at i-webmaster using your affiliate link (which Clickbank calls hoplinks), if someone you refer joins you'll receive a commission for that. If they buy another product, you'll receive a commission for that product too. If they buy 5 products (when I have that many added) you'll get a commission from all 5 products!

You'll be paid by Clickbank. They take your share out before I get paid. You need a free Clickbank account to earn commissions. If you have one, scroll down to the next section.

If you don't have a Clinkbank account yet, CLICK HERE to sign up for one. It's free for affiliates. Disregard the first part and just click the link to sign up. Clickbank uses "nicknames" for their affiliate links, so you'll need to make up a nickname. Once you have that, come back here and proceed with the instructions below.

Your Affiliate Link Code

To create your hoplink (affiliate link), copy and paste the code below into a text editor and change the part in red to your Clickbank nickname:

<a href="http://AFFILIATE.boogie.hop.clickbank.net" target="_top">CLICK HERE</a>

Change the word AFFILIATE to your Clickbank nickname. For example, if your Clickbank nickname is "buster5" your hoplink would look like this:

<a href="http://buster5.boogie.hop.clickbank.net" target="_top">CLICK HERE</a>

You're all set. You use that link no matter which product or products you are promoting. The link should take you to the Products page on this site. From there the user can learn more about the product you are promoting, as well as check out any other products that look interesting. You'll receive a 35% commission for each and every product the user buys, whether they buy the product or products you promote or not, however, I don't know if the commission is calculated before or after the Clickbank fees are taken out.

Disguising your affiliate link.

When the cursor is resting on a link, the link destination is shown in the status bar of most browsers. Some people may not click through if they see it's an affiliate link. Others may try to steal your commission by substituting their nickname in place of yours. Disguising your affiliate link increases the likelihood you'll get the commission you earned.

Here's how to disguise an affiliate link:

<a href="http://AFFILIATE.boogie.hop.clickbank.net" target="_top"
onMouseOver="window.status='http://www.i-webmaster.org'; return true;"
onMouseOut="window.status=''; return true;">CLICK HERE</a>

By adding the part in bold text, http://www.i-webmaster.org will be what the user sees in the status bar rather than your affiliate link. This is not unethical, it's protecting your commission from those who would deny it to you. Everyone ends up at i-webmaster just the same. Don't forget to change AFFILIATE to your Clickbank nickname if you copy the code above.

How Clickbank knows you referred the customer.

When your hoplink is clicked, it automatically triggers a Clickbank cookie to be set in the users browser that credits you with any sales, and at the same time the user is directed to the Products page. When your user buys something, the cookie tells Clickbank you referred them, and they credit you with the sale so you'll receive a commission.

That's all there is to it. You can promote any product on this site and use the same hoplink. I'll be adding almost all my products pending Clickbank approval.
