Affiliate Window launch truly fantastic Offers Blog

I’ve said it time and time again…the Webgains blog is brilliant and why don’t all affiliate networks have a blog that communicates their merchant’s special offers, discount codes and bestsellers etc. to their affiliates?

Well Affiliate Window have been listening and today launched their Offers Blog and it too is brilliant. It’s full of some great special offers, deep links to hot products, competitions, giveaways, contact details for their account managers and lots more. Well done AW, this is a fantastic way to communicate really relevant and useful stuff that affiliates need and can use - all in one place. I’ve bookmarked it and will visit daily.

On another note, CJ launched their “news and promotions blog“ over a year ago now and it’s STILL in beta and it’s STILL frankly awful. It doesn’t contain anywhere near as much information as it should - I feel as though the author has just slapped the bare minimum of info on the posts to get the message across. It’s badly formatted, contains some coding errors, hasn’t been categorised properly and is published using the most tiniest font in the world so you can’t even read it even if it was worth reading. It’s a real underwhelming effort from one of the biggest global affiliate networks. Come on CJ, sort it out please. In fact pay me and I’ll consult with you on how to make it brilliant.

Hi Kieron,

Thanks for your comments. Just to add, this is our second network blog and was created specifically to feature promotional material. When the original blog was devised we wanted to ensure it contained industry comment and discussion of salient isssues rather than be swamped by a procession of offers.

However we realised we needed to present incentives, competitions and codes in an easily accessible form, hence the birth of the offers blog.

If anyone would like additional information featured or has any comments please let me know.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin, yes I’m aware of your original blog I was just highlighting how good the new publisher focused blog is. Well done, a great tool for all your affiliates.
