    For those who don't get it:

    Icrontic gets a chunk of the revenue from anyone that arrives at Newegg from an Icrontic link and buys stuff. Cannon posted so he could get IC its share of the dosh from the above links.

    Also, thanks for buying my shit.

    Is this 'commission' I suppose based merely off the affiliate link or do you guys earn an amount based off the total value?

    Either way I'm totally going to do this from now on.
  • primesuspectprimesuspect Beepin n' Boopin Detroit, MI Icrontian
    It depends on the affiliate. Most are percentage-based (Newegg, for example, is something like 1-2%). A very few are flat-fee commissions (usually things like signing up for subscriptions and super big-ticket items, etc.)

    Our most lucrative affiliate, by far, is Amazon.

    Do you get the same kickback if we use the affiliate links as you do if we post the links here first? If the latter is more lucrative you jerks are going to learn WAY more about me than you want to :)

    AFAIK, it only works for sites they have an affiliate program with. So not all links are going to make them any money.
  • primesuspectprimesuspect Beepin n' Boopin Detroit, MI Icrontian
    Almost every site out there that has an affiliate program is aggregated through our affiliate provider, Skimlinks. Basically, there are thousands of sites. If you post a link here and they sell stuff, there's a really good chance it'll be affiliated automatically.

    Ok, cool, my bad.

    It keeps 80% of Icrontic's active members returning to the site so, in a manner of speaking, it does.

    Doh! I just got stuff a few days ago and forgot this. Someone remind me next time I'm ordering things.
  • SnarkasmSnarkasm Madison, WI Icrontian
    Tell us the next time you're ordering stuff - which, incidentally, will probably end up reminding you that you should do this. :P

    This thread should contain the full list.
  • GargGarg Purveyor of Lincoln Nightmares Icrontian
    Can we get a permalink to one of these lists in the footer or sidebar? More of us will see it, and it'll be easier to remember, since we'll see it all the time.

    Several times I bought stuff without the affiliate links because I searched in vain for such a list on the forums.
  • RyanFodderRyanFodder Detroit, MI Icrontian
    I just made links to the ones Brian posted in my book marks list. I didn't have any other ones so this worked out well.
  • RyderRyder Kalamazoo, Mi Icrontian
    making sure I did this right. I went to Newegg from the link above and then just shopped. That should work, right?
  • primesuspectprimesuspect Beepin n' Boopin Detroit, MI Icrontian
    Yes :)
