Preferred Link Types for Affiliates

June 20, 2010 by Shawn Collins

Affiliates were asked “What are your preferred link types?” for the latest Affiliate Summit AffStat Report.

For every method of online marketing, there are many affiliates out there leveraging it for affiliate marketing, but there are still too many affiliates using antiquated methods.

More than 25% of affiliates prefer banners as affiliate creative, the most popular option, which was closely followed by text links at 24.5%.

Preferred Link Types for Affiliates

I tend to focus on particular products from merchants, and I guess I am on the endangered species list, because only 0.4% prefer product photos.

Then again, I like that few affiliates are doing what I do – it makes things easier for me. Keep running those banners – 468×60 banners rock!

Over eleven-hundred and fifty affiliates were surveyed on their methods, preferences, and strategies for the 2010 Affiliate Summit AffStat Report.
