Fivelead.co.uk, seriously?
Watch out TradeDoubler, Buy.at etc because there is a brand new affiliate network on the scene, and judging by the quality of their pitches they could soon be stealing your business. Yes it’s fivelead.co.uk and they’re taking the UK by storm.
This was a recent comment that I received on this very blog. It wasn’t an email to me, which is the normal way to do business, it was actually a comment left on another post, totally off topic. Here it is word for word…

Well I’m really glad that they found my blog “really outstanding and attractive”. I’m also delighted to hear that they can make my business “high” and have such erm “big” clients as “ipt pdv” and “e circle” (???)
I was going to post a positive response to Sanjeet’s comment but I didn’t want to make him “regretful”.
What I’m listening to right now: Mary Mary - “Get Up”

Welcome to my blog. My name is Kieron Donoghue and I run UK Offer Media Ltd. I thought it would be fun to post a daily (well hopefully daily) blog, writing about my experiences in Internet Marketing and more specifically Affiliate Marketing. I'll include some personal stuff too, probably about my other passions, music and cars. Please feel free to post your comments and thoughts too.

They list TalkTalk and Scottish Power as clients on their site as well as an address in India lol.

We get constant emails and calls from them trying to get us to promote their crappy campaigns. Their poor grasp of the English language is hilarious to say the least. Used to bring a smile to my face, but after the 20th call I have to admit that I’ve resorted to being outright rude in order to get rid of them. Still I expect we’ll get the same spam email next week commenting on the attractiveness of our site
