Suppose a homepage of a site, you find for example;
3 Referral Levels
Tier 1 – 10%
Tier 2 – 6%
Tier 3 – 3% etc.
The number of tiers and the referral commission offered for each tier
vary from program to program.
Sites usually pay commissions for member who recruits referrals (also
known as downlines). In order to advertise your referral link, you need
to go to your referral central. There, you will find the link which you
can use to advertise and gain referrals, a link to refer advertisers and
also banners you can use to promote to gain referrals. You can see the
members you refer in your EARNINGS area.
Tier 1 referrals are your direct referrals. The referrals in the other
tiers are your indirect referrals.
If a site is paying 10% referral commission for tier 1, it means, you
will earn 10% from their earnings. Similarly if the site is offering 7%
commission for tier 2, it means you will earn 7% commission from
their earnings . For Tier 3 it would be 5% commission.
You can also get referrals from sites as GetRef
This site runs on a credits system, where you earn credits by
joining other members designated sites under their referral links and
in return use your earned credits to offer other members to join your
site as your referral. This can bring varied results and personally I
have had great results. Its a free to join site, it lists all the popular
PTR/PTC sites and you can opt to buy credits directly from GetRef also.
BuyRefs - You have the ability to buy referrals at very low prices,
starting at $7.95 for 25 International sign-ups and various other optional
sign-ups (such as search friendly countries only, US members only
etc). The prices are very cheap and if you are absolutely struggling to
find referals for your sites then it may well be worth giving BuyRefs a
shot.
