LinkShare started in 1996. I've been using them since the first began. There have been a few problems at times over the years, mostly related to some type of technical problems they were having. But, I've been pleased with them.
They are one of the big ones. They have a $1 minimum for payment and they have just very recently changed to making weekly payments.
There are other threads about LinkShare here in the Other Affiliate Networks Forum.
Links to searches dont work, so instead of Larwee's link you need to
go up to the search box and enter Linkshare.
(I've had that happen with other search links too - so need to go find out if it's a setting we can change or if that's just the way it is in Vbulletin, because the search feature is dynamic.)

I never knew that they actually had a $1 minimum payout freshold. I have also used them for around 3 or more years when it comes to earning money. I always thought they paid out once you hit $25 or something though unless that's just for international members as I don't see it worth sending a check for $1.01 or something. It would cost more than that for postage and the envelope.
Another thing I didn't know about this network then. Now that they are doing this it's going to definately attract some of the newbie affiliates and the small affiliates.
