[John Jupp]

There are also networks that are sort of in between. The minimum entry level is just that...your program is entered in the network's database. To receive promotion by that network you need to pay significantly more. Then if you seriously wish to promote the program you may also wish to consider paying for a Consultant to act as a Virtual Affiliate Manager. This alone will cost anything up to $2,000 to $4,000 a month part time.

Top affiliate programs will have up to £50,000 or more spent on them to launch. Medium sized programs will still spend up to £30,000 and the smallest of programs even with a £55 entry level will still spend significantly more in terms of preparation so the final cost will still be a few thousand.
