Buyagift come up trumps with the best affiliate incentive ever
The Sky incentive that I was delighted to win back in July held the title for the best affiliate incentive ever - to date. But could they be about to lose their crown to Buyagift?
Take a look at this thread on the A4U Forum, Buyagift are giving affiliates the chance to choose what incentive they would like to aim for this year. And I don’t mean you get to pick between an iPod, USB something-or-other and a digital picture frame. None of that for Buyagift; just take a look at these prizes…

It’s always been one of my ambitions to drive across the west coast of the USA in a muscle car so that particular prize gets my vote. In the past I have to be honest and admit that I’ve never really promoted Buyagift - not because they don’t have a good affiliate programme, they do - but because I don’t have any sites in that niche and it’s a very competitive sector. But this year, if the drive across the USA gets picked as the prize I’ll change that and find a way to push Buyagift. So it just goes to show that an incentive like this goes a long way to getting new and existing affiliates excited.
I’ve talked about their affiliate manager Graham Keen before here and here. He’s one of the top affiliate managers in the UK and certainly knows how to inspire and motivate affiliates. Well done Graham on what could well be the best affiliate incentive ever.

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.

Looks like Buyagift are going to do it again, really good incentives and a chance to vote for your favourites.
Have already done almost that exact USA road trip, but would highly recommend it and been to Monaco as well, but not done the F1 car or powerboat so that would probably get my vote.
Away to look for a gadget domain

Those are good incentives, the Artic Safari is the one I would go for myself.

Great incentives, but don’t knock other merchants for trying - some of them have tiny affiliate budgets and do their best!
Still, no defence there for some of the blue chips with affiliate programmes….

Having been on the last 2 trips to Vegas with Buyagift the prospect to get to go on another trip would be amazing although I know my luck has to run out at some point.
The Arctic Safari is the one that gets my vote though, something that is really different and a once in a lifetime trip, although any of the experiences won’t be forgotten as Buyagift really do pull out all the stops!
