Economy Down, Dollar Weakens, Recession Affecting Affiliate Programs
Affiliate Marketing
By: David Tan on 26 March 2008
With the economy (US) looking towards doing a nose dive, affiliates may be in need to tweak their monetization strategies. Consider what programs will then be adversely or positively affected?

Probable Negatives
  • Programs related to:-
  • Luxury items & Expensive Products
  • Investments
  • Donations, Charity
  • Tours

Probable Positives
  • Discount Products - Plenty of stores out there that sells heavily discounted, clearance sale year round products.
  • Programs with lots of regular coupons
  • Cheap entertainment - like watch tv on the internet software
  • Loans
  • Porn, tobacco, liquor - higher demand for stuff that distracts you from real life
  • Chocolate, Ice-cream
Some programs will get higher focus and there may also more focus on foreign affiliate programs. Especially with the weakening of the dollar
