Answers:

1. Q: What is the NitroMarketing Affiliate Program?
   
   A: The NitroMarketing Affiliate Program will pay you every time you refer a new visitor to one of our websites and that visitor purchases one of our products.
   
   
2. Q: How do the Nitro Marketing products work together?
   
   A: The NitroMarketing products work together in several ways.  When you signup for our affiliate program, you're given links to promote over 50 different products.  
   
   You automatically receive commissions from any product sales whenever a referral you send to ONE of the sites purchases ANY other product.

   The bottom line is you get referral commission at all sites for promoting any of your referral links. These products are in high demand, and the more people you refer, the more money you are going to make.  
   
   

3. Q: How do I get started with the affiliate program?
   
   A: It's a very simple three-step process: read and agree to the terms and conditions, fill out the Affiliate Application, and when we accept your application, you will be notified via email about how to link to us and start earning money.
   
   
   
4. Q: Can I participate if I live outside the U.S.?
   
   A: Yes, NitroMarketing products and participation in the Affiliate Program are available globally. If you live outside the US, your commissions are paid in US dollars by check on around the 20th of the month following the sale.  The minimum payment level is $50 for international affiliates.  
   
   
   
5. Q: Does it cost anything to become a NitroMarketing affiliate?
   
   A: No. The NitroMarketing Affiliate Program is free. (Click here to join).  
   
   
   
6. Q: Does my web site qualify for the NitroMarketing Affiliate Program?
   
   A: Anyone can apply for the program. However, NitroMarketing reserves the right to refuse any site, especially if it contains unsuitable material. Web sites that would violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right; encourage illegal activity or racism; or feature hard liquor, tobacco products, gambling, or materials, products, or services related to pornography will be deemed unacceptable for the NitroMarketing Affiliate Program.
   
   
   
7. Q: I don't have a Web site yet. Can I still apply to be an affiliate with Nitro Marketing?
   
   A: Yes, unlike most Affiliate Programs that only accept affiliates that have their own web site, we feel that everyone should be given the opportunity to be part of the NitroMarketing Affiliate Program.
   
   As an affiliate, you are given access to a private affiliate training area, as well as a private NitroMarketing Affiliates' Forum, where we teach you how to promote our products, with or without a web site of your own.  (Please see the welcome message you receive from us after you complete the registration process for full details)
   
   
   
8. Q: How does NitroMarketing track visitors to my Web site?
   
   A: NitroMarketing uses state of the art technology to manage your leads and sales. Our tracking system makes use of cookies to track your referrals for up to 12 months. Over 99% of all users have their cookies enabled on their browser (less than 1% of all users have their cookies disabled). The fact is that cookie- based technology is a reality that will remain a part of consumer tracking for individual Internet e-businesses for quite some time. In the unlikely situation that a customer has cookies disabled, then the sales that occur cannot be tracked, either by our technology or anyone else's.
   
   
   
9. Q: How can I keep track of how many people visit and buy from my Nitro Marketing affiliate link?
   
   A: Simply log in to your Nitro Affiliate account (see the welcome email) to access a variety of online reports, where you can track your click-throughs and commissions.  (See "Check Stats.")
   
   
   
10. Q: How much will I earn for each sale I refer to the NitroMarketing Products?
    
    A: For most products, you will receive a 25% commission on any of our products that you sell.  You also receive a 5% second-tier commission on any sales your sub-affiliates make.  For full commission details, please click here.
    
    
    
11. Q: When and how do I get paid?
    
    A: You will be paid monthly by check (USD) for the previous month's sales, providing you meet the minimum payment requirements below.  Commission checks are issued on the 20th day of each month. Please ensure that we have your correct mailing address and payee information.  
    
    
12. Q:  What are the minimum payment requirements for commissions?
    
    A:  The minimum payment level is $25 for US and Canadian affiliates, and $50 for all other international affiliates. Accounts owing under this amount will be carried forward to the next sales period until commissions have accumulated to the $25 or $50 threshold. Commissions against sales that are rejected upon credit card authorization or otherwise refunded or charged back will be deducted from your following commission payment. 
    
    
    
13. Q:  If I buy through my own link, do I get a commission?
    
    A:  If you purchase one of our products through your own affiliate link, our policy is to reverse the commission to the affiliate that originally referred you to us.  This is to ensure that all affiliates receive proper credit for their referrals.
    
    For example, everybody you work hard to refer through your affiliate links could sign up for the affiliate program and purchase from their own link, thus you would not receive any compensation for your efforts. And we want you to be properly rewarded.  We also have had two articles published related to this issue here:

14. Q: What technical skills do I need as a Nitro Affiliate?
    
    A: There are no special skills required, since we provide all the training you need to be successful.  Webmasters need to be able to copy and paste HTML code and place it accurately within the code of a web page or within an e-mail.
    
    
    
15. Q: How can I promote the NitroMarketing range of services?
    
    A: NitroMarketing will provide marketing tools that you can use on your site. Affiliates without a website can contact us for more details on how to promote our products - please contact us here.
    
    In addition, our regular NitroAffiliates Newsletter is full of advice designed to help you be successful promoting our products.
    
    
    
16. Q: How can I change my affiliate account information?
    
    A: To make changes to your account, just go to the Login Page.  You'll need to know your user name and password in order to access your account.
    
    
    
17. Q: What kind of advertising is prohibited?
    
    A: You cannot send unsolicited email (also known as spam) in any way, shape, or form. There will be absolutely no leniency in cases of unsolicited email, and affiliates in violation of this policy will forfeit their commissions and be removed from the program immediately upon verification.
    
    
18. Q: Do I get paid for NameStick domain renewals and monthly Trafficology members?
    
    A: Yes.   You get paid a commission when your NameStick customers renew their domains.  And you get a monthly residual commission for as long as your Trafficology customers keep using the membership.
