What is the Affiliate Network?
The Affiliate Network gives you the opportunity to generate easy income from your Web site by referring visitors to our service. It also gives you the opportunity to enhance your Web site with a valuable service.

BACK

How do I get started?
First, complete the short and easy online
Affiliate Network Application.

How does the Respond Affiliate Network work?
The Respond Affiliate Network is a relationship between you and Respond. You help Respond by referring buyers to our service, and in return, we generously compensate you for your help. You simply create a link to Respond on your Web site (we provide you with the available links and everything else you'll need to promote Respond). When your referrals use our service according to our Affiliate Network specifications, we give you a referral bonus to say "Thank you." You'll earn up to $10.00 when a visitor from your Web site links to Respond and submits a valid request or becomes a member of our business network. You'll be credited only for the first request submitted per unique visitor from your Web site, and once for every unique, approved business registration.

BACK

How do my visitors benefit?
Your link to the Respond Web site will give your visitors access to our innovative service.  Respond brings together local buyers with local businesses without the hassles of traditional yellow page searches. Your Web site visitors will appreciate you giving them the opportunity to benefit from Respond.

BACK

How much does it cost?
Joining the Respond Affiliate Network is totally free!

BACK

How much money will I earn?
You'll earn $10.00 when a visitor from your sites becomes an active seller in our business network, and $0.50 when a visitor from your Web site links to Respond and submits a valid request. You'll be credited only for the first request submitted per unique visitor from your Web site.

BACK

How often will I get paid?
You will receive payments on a quarterly basis in the form of a check. If your earnings are less that $50.00 in a given quarter, we'll carry the total over to the following quarter.

BACK

How do I create links to Respond and what types of links will be available?
Please check out the
Banners, Buttons, & Text Links section. Included are directions on how to copy images and text links to your Web site.

BACK

What if I don't know how to write HTML code or use my site development tool?
We've made our links simple so that all you need to do is cut and paste them right into your Web pages.

BACK

Is my Web site eligible for the Respond Affiliate Network?
Anyone may apply to the Affiliate Network, and most Web sites will qualify. However, the Web sites of all potential Affiliates will be subject to review prior to acceptance, and we may choose to reject any Web site that we determine to be unsuitable for our Affiliate Network.

Please note that Respond is currently only considering Web sites composed in English and based in the United States and Canada.

BACK

What is considered a valid request?
A valid request is one that is reasonable, legitimate, and complete and that has been approved by our internal quality control systems.
