I just posted some information about the company Viglink.com whose goal is to monetize the links on your website by matching them up with existing affiliate marketing programs.
I just discovered Skimlinks.com based out of the UK who also launched the same concept. They’re also starting a push into the US market. I’ve signed up for an account to do a little comparison.
If you’re interested in monetizing your links, and you don’t want the hassle of affiliate programs, check them out. Let me know what you think.

A few days ago I received an email from my brother and business partner simply titled “look.”
The only think in the body was a link:

After reading the article, I discovered a very interesting a simple solution to the problem I’ve always had with affiliate marketing. I’ve dabbled with a few affiliate programs, but I’ve always found it too time consuming and difficult to track and manage very many of them. I’ve got quite a bit going on in life, and really don’t have the extra time to dedicate to maintaining a bunch of affiliate programs.
Enter Viglink. If it does what it promises it will eliminate the hassle of maintaining your affiliate programs. For a cut of the profit, they take care of it for you. All that you need to do is drop a few lines of javascript into your website(s) and Viglink will monetize any links you post. No more messing around with the affiliates yourself.
Backing from companies like Google’s Affiliate Network, Linkshare, and Commission Junction prove that this is obviously one to watch.
I’ve just set up the code (a very simple process) and now it’s just time to wait and see what happens.
