I thought it was relevant and pasting the whole article in didn't seem appropriate. My own experiences are summarised in the article: "I did have a home-rolled affiliate program for Perfect Table Plan <http://www.perfecttableplan.com/>, but I shut it down because the number of sales just wasn't worth the administration overhead. Some of the affiliates never sold a single licence." If that seems rather 'thin' it is because I decided affiliates wasn't for me before I wasted too much time on it. But I have also talked top quite a few other indie developers and misvs about affiliates and included their feedback in the article. YMMV obviously. best regards Andy Brice http://www.perfecttableplan.com http://www.successfulsoftware.net [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
