PayDotCom is one of the simplest affiliate networks to use for both vendors and affiliates. There is of course no cost for affiliates to join and promote as many affiliate products as they wish. Although the selling fee for each product is technically split between the PayDotCom vendor and affiliate, the vendor pays 100% of the fee and then recoups 50% of that small fee by subtracting it from the affiliate's commission. The PayDotCom system keeps track of these details.

For vendors there are fee credits which can be purchased through PayDotCom in advance which can dramatically reduce the vendor's total fee costs. Affiliates are not eligible for any type of fee credits.

Vendors are allowed to join PayDotCom and list one product initially for free. PayDotCom vendors who wish to sell unlimited products can do so by upgrading with a small, one-time fee. Once one sale for a product is made it will be listed in the PayDotcom marketplace. There, affiliates may select to promote it for the commission which the vendor has established. Most commissions given are in the range of 50%.

A vendor begins the process by creating a sales page and specifying it's location in the product's setup in PayDotCom. The sales page for the product must be hosted in a hosting account owned by the vendor. The sales page contains the PayDotCom buy button which the code is generated for in the vendor's product setup area. The vendor specifies the price for the product in the setup which results in the correct amount being shown on the buy page and resulting PayPal page. All PayDotCom sales go through PayPal.

Once a sale for the product is completed, the buyer is directed to the thank-you page which the vendor listed in the product's setup. The thank-you page is created and hosted by the vendor in the vendor's hosting account. This page is where the buyer normally receives instructions for how the product will be delivered.

All PayDotCom sales are immediately deposited directly into the vendor's PayPal account. It is then the vendor's responsibility to pay any affiliate commissions due. These commissions are due no later than 30 days after the close of the month in which the sale was made in. PayDotCom offers a mass-pay download with which vendors can easily pay all affiliate commissions with one payment process.

Refunds are the responsibility of the PayDotCom vendor since the buyer made payment directly to the vendor via PayPal. The vendor is free to establish their own refund policy. Refunds should be done via PayPal's refund link found in the PayPal transaction details page. If done in this matter, the PayDotCom system will receive notification of the refund and will deduct the commission from the affiliate's commissions due.

Affiliates may promote unlimited products. An affiliate usually begins the process by visiting the PayDotCom marketplace and selecting a specific product to promote. There in the marketplace the affiliate can join that vendor's program. After joining the program, the affiliate can retrieve their affiliate link to the product in their account's list of active products.

PayDotCom affiliates are free then to promote the link with various methods. Successful affiliates use PayPerClick, their own website, or both. Beginning affiliates often use unproductive methods such as free classified sites and rented email lists. An affiliate's best choice in promoting PayDotCom products is with an optimized website which attracts natural search engine traffic.

PayDotCom affiliates are far better off choosing products which are not in competitive areas. Unfortunately, too many beginners choose to promote the very competitive Internet marketing products. The intense competition in these areas makes success extremely difficult for all but the very experienced marketers.

Once sales are made, the PayDotCom system automatically keeps track of the total vendor sales and corresponding affiliate commissions which are due. Most PayDotCom vendors pay by the 15th of the following month which the sales were made in.

For additional help and answers to questions, PayDotCom has a forum for users. Both vendors and affiliates may post questions and comments there concerning all aspects of using PayDotCom. The forum link can be found in the help section located on the home page of PayDotCom.
