    They have to keep their mild mannered alter egos secret you know, or the ones that they love could be put at risk. With great traffic comes great responsibility.

    Hi Richard,
    There are plenty of 'super affiliates' who peruse these forums. Checking it out I can't see that you've posted full details of your offering to affiliates yet. What I'd suggest would be to outline your program: your commission rate, cookie, conversion rate, any incentives available etc and see what feedback you get. If you have had limited interest from affiliates so far it may be simply that your offering is not attractive enough or that you haven't got the word out properly.

    'super affiliate' is so generic, you just need matching to affiliates who have traffic that will work for you.

    Im yet to meet an affiliate who is classes as a super affiliate in every sector, there are some that come close. Talk to your network if you have one, see whos active in your sector, talk with them and just come out with it - "whats it going to take to get you to promote us" they might say an increase in commission, they might tell you how to improve your site. The point is they are active in your sector and know what will work so listen to them.

    To searches on google for terms you wish you appeared on in the natural results, chances are some of these sites are affiliates - email them. If they aren't a merchant they are affiliates (just some of them dont know it yet).

    Well the moderators of this forum read like a who's who of the affiliate world.

    Some of the rest of us aren't bad either....perhaps we're the "very good affiliates".

    As Dan says, it's not just finding a "super affiliate", it's finding the super affiliate for you. Now, I think this term is too well worn. Someone who isn't necessarily a super affiliate for anyone else, could end up beng your top performer.

    Its more about finding people with the right traffic stream and areas of interest than blindly looking for these caped crusaders of the affiliate world.

    That said, a lot of affiliates with special offer / discount code sites can drive serious traffic. If you can offer discount codes within your margins, it can be a good way to tap into that particular revenue stream.
