Busy Fashion Site - Which Affiliates to use?

[Brassneck]

Tweet

My fashion blog - Catwalk Fashion|Latest Fashion News| Beauty News | Celebrity Fashion | Fashion Offers | Beauty Offers - is now pretty well established with 1500 daily visitors and growing.

I want to now take the affiliate side of things seriously, but to be honest I don't have too much experience.

I have 5 decent ad spaces on the right hand side of my site - 1 250 x 250 and 4 125 x 125.

I've pretty much had the same merchants since the summer - the big ad (NEXT) converts pretty well, however the others haven't really done much despite plenty of click thrus.

What would be your top 5 fashion / beauty stores to feature on there?

Thanks
STephen.

If you want a wide range of fashion from designer brands (DKNY, MaxMara etc) to high street (Warehouse, Miss Sixty) why not look at joining the House of Fraser affiliate programme.

We have full support from both Commission Junction & Linkshare teams and I am happy to assist here too.

Have a look at the brands available online at House of Fraser here and here for more details on the House of Fraser affiliate programme.

Chris,

Out of interest do you have any stats on how well House of Fraser converts from a visitor to sale ratio.

I had previously promoted them and found (for me) it to convert v poorly in comparison to other name high street retailers.

This combined with Linkshares comical reporting lead me to drop them.

Which is a shame as from a shopping perspective they are my favourite shop to use.

The whole process left me scratching my head wondering how it had done so badly for me.

It would be interesting to see your overall conversion stats to see if it was just me or there is a conversion problem.

Cheers

Dessie

Nice looking site. I pulled the plug on catwalkfashions.org.uk as we were too similar. (and have too many other fashion blogs)

Domain is available cheap if you ever want it :tup
