We have some new Free Postage/Shipping banners up for AbeBooks.co.uk as well as for AbeBooks.com. They're already uploaded to the affiliate networks. The usual sizes are up there, but if you need additional sizes please email us and we'll get them to you.
Free Postage has great conversions for many sites, including coupon and loyalty/reward sites, and since there's no minimum purchase it's a great offer for your visitors.
Here's a sample of what they look like:
Just to let everyone know that Heather will be at Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas from Jan 10-13th. It's three days of affiliate marketing seminars, talks, and networking. If you're coming and would like to meet up let us know.
Happy Holidays!
In the last few weeks there's been a lot of discussion in the affiliate world (at least in the US) over display advertising. Both sides of the argument are weighing in on whether banners and displays ads are an outdated form of advertising.There is an interesting article posted in ReveNews a few weeks ago -- sorry for the delay in posting it here -- on this topic.
Due to the increasing number of AbeBooks affiliate programmes in Europe (Italy soon to come – stay tuned!) my colleague Heather will take over the UK affiliate programme from now on. Heather is also managing our AbeBooks.com affiliate programme and is looking forward to bringing her expertise to the UK programme. The best way to contact us will remain the same, via our eMail address: affiliate@abebooks.co.uk
Thanks to all of you for making 2008 the most successful year yet for our UK affiliate programme! We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
