In the past, I have always focused on the mid to high paying affiliate offers. I was never a high volume guy I guess from my experiences with online retail sites I have owned and operated. No matter what you sell, you always have to deal with customer service, so why not make 5 times as much on the product you are selling if you are going to have to deal with stupid people? Well, that is and was the mindset, but recently I have realized that there is probably some money to be made using the “freebie” offers that every affiliate network has available. The “freebie” offers are called that because the offeree does not have to shell out any money to get a chance to win something or get some “free” software. Nevermind that the company offering the “free” software is probably going to sell your information to 200 other affiliate networks. Anyway, the point is, I am going to be testing out some of these freebie offers on some organic search sites as well as via some PPC arbitrage sites to see how they perform. The nice thing about offers like this is that they are designed to appeal to a wide audience and there is a ton of traffic that you can throw the offers at. This is good for testing as you will find out quickly if your offer works and it is good for scalability as there is a hellovalotta traffic to put your offer in front of, if and when you create one that works.
