I got all setup with Motive and Ryan was set as my AM who is a great guy, btw.  We talked for a little while and I figured I would give a few campaigns a go. Motive matched what I was getting at my other networks so payout was not an issue. As it turns out my first month with Motive I did over 10,000 in revenue and was setup on weeklies after 1 week with the network.

Not many networks are willing to hook you up with higher payouts and faster payments after a week but Motive did. Which ranks them pretty high in my book. It proves that they are willing to work with affiliates and that they are on your side not the advertisers.  These guys are a top notch network! If you are not working with them let make sure to sign up.

I wasn’t keeping up with the status of Tyler’s contest since I hadn’t expected much with motive. But I ended up wining first place for the 3rd time awarding me a 13” MacBook. I personally have no need for it so I decided to give it to my girl friend as a 3yr anniversary present.  It’s the base model but still a 1,000 prize for only doing what I normally do anyway. Check out the pics before I gave it to her.

Motive is seriously a first class network. They paid me on time, fast as hell, and worked with me to bump my payouts to be competitive. I highly recommend you sign up with them and see how easy it is to start raking in the cash.

So I hit up Tyler Cruze’s site and find the token super affiliate cartoon guy so now I know this guy is legit.  I mean all super affiliates need a cartoon guy which is why I have one but mine is from istock. So I read a couple of posts and it seems for the last 7 months all he has done is have affiliate contests! Sign up under his link make him money and you could win a crap ton of prizes.  The top prize for 100k in revenue is a Segway!

After this I hit up Zac Johnson’s website for the first time ever.. token cartoon guy so I know I am at the right place and guess what.. Another contest! Same network as a few of tyler’s to, seems motive and xyz are giving out tons of shit to get more publishers. Same thing…sign up under him make him free cash get prizes.  Top prize for 300k revenue is a freaking smart car. Though I highly doubt he will ever get a guy doing 300k a MONTH under him. But hey if it works for him..

Anyway I am starting to see a pattern here..to be a true super affiliate my goal needs to be to get as many readers as possible and then hold monthly contests, or constantly post about how much money my blog is making. Ill have to make that one of my goals for 2009….

I want to note a few things though. I do a fair bit online, this month I will probably break 100k in revenue NOT PROFIT. So these things are really tempting, I would love a free Segway but I trust my main network (Ad4sDough) and I know I am not getting raped by scrubbed leads. That Segway is tempting but who do you think is really going to pay for it in the end…
