The new affiliates4u

[Matthew Wood]

It's been a fair few months in development, but we are really excited to be launching the affiliates4u.com beta this afternoon.

This new release will increase the exposure and professionalism of the industry by offering a suite of extra features that enable you network, learn and build stronger relationships with others in the channel.

With the new site you have the opportunity to create social networks by starting communities which you can manage. Members can also sign up for, create and invite people to events across the world, etch on other members whiteboards, provide testimonials and give other users an insight into their thoughts and affiliate marketing lives with the 'thought bubble'

The forum is still very central to the site, and we have added new forums including Affiliate marketing 2.0, social media, viral marketing, web analytics and usability.

In addition we now have a growing number of expert bloggers covering topics such as paid search, SEO, eCommerce and viral marketing. The new 'affiliate' and 'merchant' universities provide a specialist area where new affiliates and merchants can learn about the many aspects of affiliate marketing.

In true social media style, the community can review, back' or 'slap' member and expert blogs, encouraging educational and innovative contributions to this exciting industry - the most backed contributions feature on our main homepage and industry round-up newsletter each week.

We look forward to adding more functionality to the website in the coming months, if there is something that you would specifically like to see then please speak to us.

I hope you enjoy looking around the new site.. on a personal note I'd like to thank all the members of the existem team here in Bristol who have been working hard to get this ready for you today.

Have fun!

Matthew

Reminds me of the move from the old ezboard site.
That must have been a fair few years ago now.

Looking good - just need to get used to it

[Julie H]

I like it - it looks very comfy.

[Kandevil]

It's all different colours but the same thing underneath for the forums, which doesn't quite feel right yet, but that will pass and there is so much more than just the forum to the site now!

[Adam_Hitflip]

The communities/social networking aspects look like they will be very useful too.

[Sinbad]

Very nice. I had to type in the URL twice before I realised I was indeed on the right site!

[DioBach]

Tidy stuff.

It's a bit slow loading at the moment, but I guess there's a rush on at the minute whilst everyone plays.

[Mitchy]

Nice one guys - big fan.

[drivetowin]

It looks really good - going to take a little while to find my way around and the performance has been a bit slow this afternoon but I guess that's everyone looking around and having a play with all of these new toys.

Only question is - the forum takes up enough of my time as it is - now how am I ever going to get work done!!
