Disappointingly there aren’t many affiliate marketing programs around for the modelling industry, however I am sure as more and more retailers look to the Internet to increase their sales, we shall see more programs for us to promote online.
Currently the only affiliate program I have found is run by OnTracks. The program is run in house and despite the low commission amount, which is 2% of sales value. The program does track effectively and also converts well.
If you are looking to add links to OnTracks from your model railway website you will find that ‘deeplinks’ will convert better. e.g.
You could link to the section about Hornby Train Sets - click the link for the example.
Apart from the 2% commission they are paying the only other thing that lets them down is the severe lack of creative, however they are happy for you to take anything you need from their website when it comes to images and graphics.
You can sign up to the program here, adding links is easy, you just add you affiliate id variable to the end of any URL on their website.
Share and Enjoy:
