Performance Marketing Alliance (PMA) Q&A at Affiliate Summit East 2008 I walked out the Performance Marketing Alliance (PMA) Q&A session at Affiliate Summit East 2008 in Boston, MA just a few hours ago, full of frustration and a bit of anger. I had to calm myself down first before I started writing this post. The subject is important and emotional for most of us, but emotions will not solve our problems and only make it harder to come to agreements and finding solutions that benefit every single one of us.
PMA and the New York State Law Issue

Yes, the show really does start two days before the keynote kicks off. Actually, it might be three days. I arrived early Saturday morning and I missed a few unofficial gatherings on Friday. Note to self: arrive in Vegas extra early for ASW ‘09.
I can’t really talk about the show because it has not really started. To

I agree with Jeff on many points, including the lack of innovation in the industry during the past five years. Why was there not much innovation you might ask yourself? In my opinion networks and also many advertisers did shift their focus and priority towards affiliate publishers who are not traditional affiliates in the first place. Those publishers use the affiliate or CPA tracking platform

The Affiliates of New York are proof of what small groups can accomplish. In the face of what has come to be known as the Amazon Tax, a rather short sighted law instituted by New York state, and the combined lack of guidance from many of the networks and merchants in the industry, this group has put together an excellent set of recommendations.
These recommendations provi

Before you get lost in the conference chaos and inevitable Boston pub crawls, I thought I should give my top five picks for sessions you can?t afford to miss:

The class action filed against ValueClick subsidiaries CJ.com and BeFree has taken a new turn with ValueClick proposing a $1,000,000 settlement fund to be distributed to members of the class action suit.
The lawsuit was originally filed against CJ after the legal team for the class action determined that CJ allowed software publishers to highjack commissions due to other publishers using methods including downloadable toolbars, purchase helpers and other hidden software.

address for the list, but you'll want to use one that is different than your primary address. Most Safelists will ask you for your contact email address that will only be used by the list manager for member communication, and a list email address to which you will receive the messages from other members. While it's true that many people won't read your ad email, if you join enough safelists and start reaching tens of millions of people a day with your ads, the numbers will begin to work in your favor and you will start seeing results.
FFA, or free-for-all sites are web pages that accept links to other websites at a high rate. Often the links are shown on a page that has 50 or 100 "rolling" links. As new links are posted, the oldest ones fall off. But other FFA sites retain your link for much longer or indefinitely. The value of FFA sites is debated in the marketing community but I personally think it is worthwhile, if only to get lots of sites linking back to your web site. In addition, there are FFA blaster tools that let you effortlessly blast your site link out to thousands of FAA in an instant. So why not do it?
Classified Ad sites are just that, the digital sister to traditional newspaper classified ads. There are a ton of free classified ad sites on the web that will accept your ad, as well as many that charge for their services. A typical model is the site will offer a free ad and after you post it, will entice you with paid upgrade for your ad to increase its effectiveness.
Blog and RSS feed blasters are services that will accept your blog URL or RSS feed URL (and most blogs provide you with a feed) to the site. The service then sends this out to multiple blog or RSS web directories that index your entries and help to get exposure for your site.
Submitting your ads and URL's to all of these advertising outlets manually, one at a time, is possible but you would be spending the majority of your time doing this instead of building your business. Finding good blasters is an essential part of a smart Internet Marketer's tool bag.
