There’s been a lot of talk going on in the industry lately about Affiliate Jump, a “CPA Network” from eBook slinger Mike Filsaime.  It’s a bunch of garbage.  If you’ve read a good review, it was by a paid Joint Venture partner.  If you’ve read a bad review, it’s from someone who has either tried it or knows how ridiculous it is.

Do not pay to join Affiliate Jump or any other CPA Network.  CPA Networks PAY YOU, not the other way around.  Don’t believe the hype about the “automated website builder”.  If you’ve ever used an automated website builder for anything (think Angelfire, TriPod, or GeoCities), then you know how sub-par the results are.  Would you buy something from a GeoCities site?  Nobody else would either.

The eBook bonuses are not worth the price of admission.  There is plenty of advice for free on blogs and forums and by talking to your Affiliate Manager at a real network.  That’s right, real CPA Networks have Affiliate Managers, somebody who is personally vested in your success.  Someone that will give you payout increases and tips on marketing your offers.  Someone that you can call on a Saturday when something goes wrong.

Long story short, don’t be a sucker.  There is less opportunity for you to make money at Affiliate Jump then selling garage sale junk on eBay.  Try joining a real affiliate network.
