Forced Mobile Redirects Take Users Where They Don’t Want To Go

Now available on your mobile device: all the crummy, spammy experiences you’ve come to expect from desktop.

Affiliate Linking And Data Collection: When Revenue Isn’t The Value

While affiliate marketing is hardly new – perhaps you’ve heard of Google and Amazon – for some publishers its real value comes from the data and optimization it enables, as opposed to the incremental revenue it generates. At least, this is what Alicia Navarro, CEO and co-founder of content monetization company Skimlinks, was led to... Continue reading »

Rakuten-LinkShare Makes Case For Merging Retargeting And Affiliate Spend

It would be generous to say the attribution puzzle is half-solved. A quarter or an eighth solved is more like it. But the direction is clear.

Platform companies are helping them, but their efforts can sometimes seem clumsy, calling... Continue reading »

Affiliate Marketing Going 'Mainstream' Says VigLink CEO Roup

“Affiliate marketing has gone much more mainstream,” says VigLink CEO Oliver Roup.  That’s his hope, at the very least, since his 28-person company is built on the commission-based lead gen business model that has been a cornerstone of web marketing.
