How to know which affiliate networks are legit

**eggman2001** · 08-18-2006, 03:35 PM

I've been doing some adsense on my adult content site but haven't had much luck with it, so I've been thinking about doing some CPA to make money. There seem to be a lot of adult affiliate programs, but how can I find one that is legit and won't rip me off.

That would be the reason why adsense does NOT allow adult oriented sites...

They seem to be fine with mine. I'm just not making as much as my traffic should get me.

Check out Google Adsense's Program Poilcies:https://www.google.com/adsense/policies It clearly states:

Quote:

Site may not include:
...
Pornography, adult, or mature content
...

Yea, unfortunately google adsense doesn't deal with adult stuff

But they have no problem showing it to you when you search.

just research. read thru here and on blogs to see which ones are legit. Key will be making sure it accepts your type of traffic. If you are unsure contact them.

Quite a few of the CPA affiliate networks are legit. The best thing to look for is if they have good contact details and you could also try contacting them and seeing how fast they relpy or even if they reply.

But the main thing is, any cpa affiliate network could be legit, but will you follow the TOS. Although Adsense seems fine for your site, it clearly says in their TOS that adult sites are not allowed and if they find that you are putting ads on an adult site then they can easily close your account anytime without pay. TOS is there for a reason.

I just thought that I would mention it as I wouldn't want anybody to get there accounts closed in any program especially if they earn a good amount of money.
