Hi guys.

I'm very pleased to announce that my new company Uberhype will be responsible for the digital & search marketing for the Easy Computers group of companies.

This is a boon for me and i'm very pleased to say the least. The Easy Computers web portfolio as you will no doubt be aware is hugely successful, with a string of awards to their name.

Part of our remit is to manage their affiliate programs, namely:

Laptops Direct (Affiliate Window) - Laptops Direct - Buy Cheap Laptops in the UK. Laptop Computers, Cheap Notebooks, New Cheap Laptop, Used and Refurbished Laptops. Find bargain Laptop Computers for Home or Business.
Direct TV's (Affiliate Window) - Direct TVs : Cheap Plasma TVs, Cheap LCD TVs, Cheap HDTV and Cheap TV Accessories
Aircon Direct (Affiliate Window) - Air Conditioning Direct
Servers Direct (Coming Soon)

I would like your comments on the above programs. Existing affiliates of any of the above programs, is there anything you would like to see? Anything you would like to be done differently? Incentives? Can and do you make good money?

For those that have considered the programs and decided against it, why was that?

I would appreciate any information you can give me, so i can help the guys at Easycom make their affiliate programs even more successful.

I ought to add that there is no intention to leave Affiliate Window at this time.

Honest answers are welcomed, good or bad.

Thanks a lot chaps.

Stu

Hi Stu,

The big problem with both programs (Laptops Direct and Direct TV) in my view is the large telephone number in the top right hand corner of the screen on every page, which obviously reduces the conversion rate quite significantly.

If this could be removed, I'm sure affiliates would be happy to spend more time promoting these programmes.

Couldnt resist some keyword stuffing there could you, Stu.

Good luck with it.

I also bought a laptop from laptops Direct recently and have been very pleased with it. I think the biggest problem is overcoming the big store names such as PC World, Dixons etc. But their prices are great so that's the driver for me.

cheers

Hey Stu,

How's it going? Any update on whether the phone numbers are likely to be removed from the site in the near future?

Cheers
Nick

The creatives also include the URLs which isn't helpful. Some promo copy would be useful too.
