Hi Jeremy and everyone else,

I love the book!

I have been in the process of checking out different affilaite networks, and came across Kolimbo. They offer a lot of the tools and training for things you recomend in your book.

Many of their merchants have datafeeds and what they call kb stores to convert raw datafeeds into stores. For free.

Please let me know what your experiance has been with them, I am thinking of doing a mini site with benefit cosmetics.

Thanks,
Gomer

I have limited experience with Kolimbo, but based on my experience it is a very reliable platform. Kolimbo is the same company who created the software that powers "My Affiliate Program".

I have one merchant on this platform, and the checks and reporting are very reliable.

Best,

Jeremy

Reporting is pretty minimal compared to CJ. You have to add your channels before you use them in your links, so you can't code channel tracking on the fly.

Beware of your email address that you use on Kolimbo. While the one click log in to your KB merchants is convenient, it is unsecured, and having only one email address means you can't tell who may have sold your address. Also, Kolimbo does some "recruiting" for their merchants, using MegOptIn, or whatever their email blaster service is called. You'll see a link to opt out of the list for the merchant, even though you never opted in.
