CJ - Top Question

[ayushpant]

We all how merchants have been performing on CJ with those Network Earning Green Bars, and often tend to go with the Merchants which are performing better than other merchants.

However, couple of questions that often comes to my mind is that who makes money from these merchants. Answer to this is simple - Affiliates.

But, the second question is more complex - How did those Affiliates made money with those merchants? What kind of websites do they have? Wouldn't it be encouraging if we could see those websites, and learn from their strategies?

I understand that there might be too many copycats out there and top affiliates would obviously not disclose that information. But, something tells me that there is a way to find out that which websites are making money from those top merchants?

Is this topic worth a thought or plain garbage?

Comments would be helpful. Thanks in advance

Well it's worth discussing. But you are right top affiliates don't share their sites due to copycats and trying to protect their ideas from the competition.

You can always Google the merchant and find some affiliate sites that rank high. You won't know if they are top affiliates for that merchant but it can give you some general ideas - at least about ranking high.

The top affiliates for a merchant may not even rank high. They may have a big list or use datafeeds to pull in tons of traffic from longer keyword phrases, even though they may not rank on top for the merchants name or main KW.
