Thanks for all the input so far, I've made a few alterations to the program in the hope that this will have an effect:
Firstly I've increased the levels of commissions, this allows affiliates to earn up to triple commission if they perform well. Do performance incentives really work in getting affiliates to market a program harder or not?
Also, everyone has been insulting the current banners - 'drab', 'lifeless' etc. - so I took the liberty of having three new full sets drawn up which are now live on the system. They are more colourful and 'move around' alot more. I had no idea that affiliates were so picky about the colour of the banners they use! Anyway, I hope they meet approval, if you could give any hints on styling that affiliate prefer I'd appreciate it:
