What's most important in an affiliate program?

[ActionGold]

Hi,
My name is Steve and I am the new Affiliate Coordinator with ActionGold. I am interested in what webmasters see as important when sellecting which program to sign with. Please take this poll as I am sure other affiliate programs are interested in providing you what you need for your business and your portals.

Thanks!

Normally in polls of this nature, I refrain from stating my position, but I really like this one.

I will clearly state that I voted for Honesty.

Although all the other points are extremely important and it will be interesting to see the final results...but in reality....without the honesty and integrity coming out of the backend....the rest just doesn't matter.

Hi Rick,
First of all, thanks for taking the poll. I hope everyone that has a look will take it as well. There are just too many of your for me to contact personally and see what are the important attributes we should focus on in our affiliate program.

As for the honesty choice, this is really the only intangable on the list and I almost didn't include it. This is one of those parts of a program that is built over time, but can be shared. Almost every forum has a Watch-out-for-these-guys list and before I make an investment or purchase, I always check the guy out. I am working hard to make sure our program will never show up on this list. However, I want to give you the tools you need so you can work with our program and focus on your business and feel comfortable with your business partner.

Cheers,
--Steve
