affiliate marketing question

[sparkey]

Hi there, can someone help with above please, I've signed up and been approved and have a couple of ads going on our site, what this question is, I see you have a cookie for the ads 30 or 45 days, so if you place the marketing code in your site do you have to change it after that time or can you leave it there and the marketing firm change it,or do you take code out and replace with new.

ps what are the good affiliate companies in Uk

Thanks

Normally, you just put the ad code into your website and that's it.

The Affiliate company do everything else for you. The cookie is normally for 30 days, and they work on a last one dropped. So if you have an ad for X Company, a visitor clicks on it and then decides not to bother, visits another site with the same advert, then revisits X Company, that second affiliate would get any payout if the visitor purchases.

There's a lot of affiliate sites out there, we use a couple. The snag is you could give over a hundred clicks to X Company a day, and not make a single penny. The overall percentage of sales is fairly low.

Good luck.
