Generating Revenue
To generate revenue as an affiliate, you need to send traffic to the FindLegalForms.com site. The users/traffic can be either directed to the to FindLegalForms.com Home Page, to a particular form category (i.e. Power of Attorney Forms) or even to individual products (i.e. California Durable Power of Attorney). Each link directing traffic from the affiliate's site to the FindLegalForms.com site contains a special code that allows us to track sales generated by each different affiliate.
To send traffic, you need to place banners, buttons or text links on your site. We provide a selection of free professionally-designed banners, graphics and links that affiliates can use to promote the forms and send traffic. You can use our banners, graphics and links or you can design your own. Our banners and text links can be accessed from the Banner HTML code and Product HTML code links found in the Main Affiliate Page (after you login).
Getting Started
The simplest way to get started is by placing some of our ready-made banner ad code or text link on your site or in your opt-in newsletter. To do so:
- Click on the "Banner HTML code" link above.
- Find the banner/text ad you would like to use.
- Copy the HTML code on the right side of each banner/text ad
- Paste/Place the HTML code into the appropriate page on your website.
That’s it. Your site will be on its way to referring customers and generating commissions.
As explained in the terms and conditions we will pay affiliates a commission equal to twenty-five (25%) percent of each sale (after deduction of credit card processing fees and any consignment/royalty fees) for all new customer form purchases that were generated through the links between your Web site and ours, and for which we have received full payment.
How to customize and make your own text ad/link:You can create your own text-ad to drive more potential customers to our program. The link syntax should be the following:
http://www.findlegalforms.com/forms/partner/XXXX
XXXX - should be replaced your username.
Example:If you created a text phrase such as 'Find Legal Forms Here!' and if your username is 'johndoe', the customized link code should be:
<a href="http://www.findlegalforms.com/forms/partner/johndoe">Find Legal Forms Here!</a>
Miscellaneous
Please be sure you are using correct link format. Misspelling the link or your ID may cause a problem with visitor-tracking, resulting in lost sales and commissions.
Studies have shown that if you put the graphic or text link at or near the top of your website, your conversion rates (i.e. how many forms you will sell per ad display or click-through) will be much better!
