What are "Impressions" (or "Views") and "Clickthroughs" (or "Clicks")?
An "Impression" (or "View") occurs when one of your customers sees one of our promotional links on your site. "Clickthrough" (or "Click") means one of your customers took action, clicked on one of the ReligiousNet.Com promotional links, and as a result has been transfered to the ReligiousNet.Com site.

How does ReligiousNet.Com track impressions, clickthroughs, and valid orders?
Once you put an ReligiousNet.Com promotional link on your site with our special HTML we start doing all the tracking for you and evaluating your performance and orders. Embedded in that HTML is a unique identifier that we use to identify all referrals coming from your site. Once a customer enters our main page, or any category or product page he receives an HTTP 'cookie' a unique identifier stored in his machine . This certifies that if he or she orders even after he visits other sites (e.g. to compare, or see his bank account) the order will still be correctly identified as yours.

How do I get my viewers to click on the ReligiousNet.Com links?
There are lots of ways! First, put up more than one link - and put the ReligiousNet.Com links in prominent places. Place these links in context by sharing with your users a personal testimonial. Also, it has been found that links placed on the lower right corner of pages get more clicks. ReligiousNet.Com is always working to develop and test new internet marketing concepts. But we also know that no one knows your visitors -and their referers- better than you, and so we allow you the freedom to use our resources as you judge more appropriate towards this effort.

Once you join the program and become an active member, we will share our resources with you towards the agreed promotion.

Other than the ReligiousNet.Com home page, what other kinds of ReligiousNet.Com pages can I promote on my site?
You can promote any individual product page or category you wish. We allow that because we want to let you apply your marketing since we believe that you know your visitors more than anyone. You may link category pages as well. In general you may link to any page on our site except statement and agreement related pages. In the coming months, ReligiousNet.Com will be expanding its already huge product database and offer new exciting array of new products and services that you will be able to promote to make even more money! We are also preparing to to start a multi-tier affiliate program through which you may get commission of your refered affiliates. Being at the top of the ladder by signing up now may prove very important.

How can I increase my commissions?
ReligiousNet.Com appreciates very much the affiliates that work effectively and continually. Each month we evaluate all of our affiliates and offer better deals to the best of them as an incentive for new work and a 'thank you' for your past work. Also, once we work with an affiliate for a long time and our affiliation matures our monitoring resources can be lowered for these affiliates and so the cost and risk of maintaining you as a new affiliate becomes your revenue as time passes. In general, we wish to form a faithful and trustworthy affiliate team, something like a business family. For this reason our strategy is to offer extermely large commissions as the affiliations matures. We target at having affiliates that work at a 25% total price commission! This commission is on average over the products equal to our profit margin! This is how much we value this program.

How does ReligiousNet evaluates its affiliates for offering increased commissions?
We value our affiliates primarily based on the total views of the promotional links or banners, on the total number clickthroughs and on the sum of total number of their orders since joining the program the total time of participation, and the prompt reaction to the reported statistical trends. Secondarily, we take into account the clickthrough and order ratio (clicks/views and orders/views respectively), the amount of large orders (more than $100) and the percentage of returned orders.
