After a whistle-stop trip up to bonnie Scotland to see some faces old and new we’re back in the office getting some great new campaigns up and running as well as a fab competition and an exciting new launch for dgmAffiliates.
We have launched an exciting competition for dgmCompare Broadband. All you need to do is create your own dgmCompare Broadband creative in dgmPro and host it on your site for the rest of August. Everyone who creates at least one creative and records a click in August will be entered into a £1000 cash prize draw. It really is that simple! The closing date for the competition is August 31st so you still have time to get it up and running. There’s plenty more info on this here.
The phenomenon of social networking is gaining prominence both in how we use the internet in our daily lives and increasingly to conduct business. With LinkedIn achieving increasing stature, dgmAffiliates are pleased to be the first affiliate marketing network to bring the power of social network to our interface. All you have to do is sign up for a LinkedIn account and keep it up to date to enhance your attractiveness to advertisers and maximise your chances of being approved onto programmes.

As the British summer looks like it has now come to a sorry end, there’s no better time to start playing round with the new features and competitions that dgmAffiliates have to offer.

Tips on Promotion
- The Broadband + phone packages tend to deliver high volumes of sales
- The broadband + TV packages will deliver less volumes but the commission is much higher
- September, October and November are key times for broadband packages sales. TV packages also become more popular as signs of the winter draw in.
- Tiscali converts very well so expect it to fly as soon as you add it to your site, so think about how you promote the products and look at pushing the higher value products to increase commissions and ROI
