Win Nickycakes’ Xbox360
Posted on April 8th, 2008 in Affiliate Marketing
Pretty simple really. Sign up using this link to Advaliant, be the first to earn $1k in commissions, and Nickycakes will send you an Xbox 360. Not only that, but he will personally school you in COD4 on xbox live.
So why the contest? The Cakes has been working with Advaliant for a little while now, and they’ve really hooked him up bigtime, and he’d like to show his appreciation and spread the word a little. Also a little referral commissions never hurt anybody. Like Nickycakes has said in the past, he will never promote anything on this blog that he hasn’t personally used and found to be good.
Recently, Nicky made a post about what makes affiliate networks stand out from all the rest, and they hit a few of these points on the head.
- First and foremost, are the affiliate managers. These guys are pretty knowledgeable when it comes to the affiliate marketing game, and are around nearly 24/7 to help out with whatever. Nicky’s AM took him and his girl out to eat a couple times at ASW in Vegas, and when the airline lost his girl’s luggage, they offered to hook her up with whatever she needed. They’re always tryin’ to hook the affiliates up with higher payouts, and help them with whatever they need for their campaigns.
- They focus on quality, not quantity. One big issue in choosing a network is finding decent offers to promote. These guys have offers you wont find anywhere else with retarded high payouts.
- They have an in-house tracking system that works like a dream. Cakes has never seen any delay in leads showing up or anything.
- They pay on time. Cakes has already gotten 6 figs of commissions from them, and never had a problem with payouts.
Last month, the people Nickycakes referred to Advaliant made an AVERAGE of $2300. That’s a little bit out of control. They have a ton of offers that would be great to promote on facebook, let alone some killers that Cakes is doing well with in other areas like content network and search.
Anyway, enough about Advaliant being awesome. Go sign up and you should get approved pretty quick so you can get in on the contest early. If it’s taking longer than you think it should to get approved, hit up Cakes on IRC, MSN, AIM, Twitter, Teamspeak, whatever and he’ll try to get you approved faster.
A few rules about the contest. This is for new referrals only. Sorry to the dudes who have already signed up and are banking big time. Not gonna let you guys scoop the 360 in 12 hours after this post hits. Not like you guys couldn’t afford it at this point anyway =P. Also, Nickycakes isn’t going to pay shipping if you live in some forest village in Cambodia.
It’s unlikely that you’ll need any help from Cakes on what offers you should try promoting, since the AM’s there are so good, but if you’re really struggling, feel free to ask for help.
Anyway, here’s the link to sign up again. Keep it real, and good luck.

have to agree advaliant do seem quite good & keep in touch easily.

Advaliant really is THE affiliate network. I agree 100% with the cakes on all the points he listed. They have the best AM’s and their tracking is great!
Too bad I can’t enter to win the 360, but since I referred cakes to advaliant…I can buy like 50 360’s.

Thanks for the heads up on this network cakes.
I have a few new campaigns to run, so hopefully $1000 should be easy enough!
Haha!

In reference to SlightlyShadySEO: I have had the pleasure of paddling Nick’s behind on several occasions. You can start packing that XBox up right now!

@Cakes - thanks for the props, you’ve been stellar to work with so far!
@Everybody who applied to Advaliant - I’m working heavy on the pending apps, (the response to this contest has been crazy), if you’re getting impatient feel free to get in my face on AIM/Skype: geoffmarcy or MSN: geoffmarcy@hotmail.com (I’m up late and kinda always workin’ so don’t worry about bothering me). Anyways, looking forward to making you all money bags!
