5. Does the affiliate program pay you good commissions for your effort? You will want to be paid well for all the effort, time and money that you will be investing on promoting the products. As a rule, do not go for any affiliate products that will pay you less than 50% in commissions.
6. Does the affiliate program allow you to earn multiple affiliate income streams at once? There are some programs that have 2 tier or 3 tier system. What the merchant do is that they will sell the customer another product after they have make the first purchase. If the customer buys both the products, you will be paid commissions for both the products. Do look out for this kind of affiliate program.
7. Does the affiliate program track correctly and pays on time? You will want to join a program that will be able to track that you have make a sale and credit the commissions to your account. Another factor is to take note that the affiliate program pays you on time.
8. Does the merchant’s website have a good strong sales letter and good conversion rates? You will want to ask the merchant what is the conversion rate of their website. The 2nd thing that you should do is to read the sales letter yourself and see whether you will be tempted to buy the products or not.

It might seem to be a little troublesome to go through all these criteria just to find a product to promote. But do not be lazy.

This will saves you lots of time and money in the long term.
