I’ve self published. I need to find a way to track referrals from other sites that buy my book at my site (affiliate program, shopping cart). I currently use paypal for purchases now. Do I need to change? There are soooo many – I don’t know which one would work for my purpose. I don’t make a lot of money from this so don’t want one with high monthly fees. Any help would be appreciated.

As a self-publisher, signing on with any of the above companies will allow you to have and track your affiliates. In fact the companies will do it for you. So it is hands free.
Will only charge you based on sales. in otherwords, no sales, no charges.
I am a self-publisher too.

Hi,
I have a lot of experience marketing small companies online (I have 3 companies). One of the best ways is to sign up at business directories and protals. These are basically listings of businesses (simliar to the phone book). The advantage is that these portals usually get a lot of traffic and they’re ranked high on Google because of all the quality links they contain.
My favorite portal is called Directory Exclusive. I signed up a few weeks ago because they’re giving a away a free business card holder when a person enter’s their company info. I received it in the mail 3 days ago =)
I don’t know if they still have that promotion, but you can try to get the free card holder here:
Good Luck

I would go with Share a Sale. They are inexpensive and easy to set up plus they are one of the most trusted Affiliate brokers around. I know a couple of people who have used them and they are very happy with the service and quality of affiliates that this broker attracts.
Create a video blog…instantly.
Paypal does not have an affiliate program software that allows you to track which of your selllers sold your book
Use Clickbank or 2checkout — they charge higher in terms of commissions but they have allow you to set up an affiliate program
