AffSync Tools - Docs and Guidelines

Guide to get started with AffSync Tools.

We currently have affiliate programs from more than 40+ networks. Some with complete data and some with limited data. We aim to include more and create only a go-to source for affiliate marketing. We will also include self-hosted programs, which are required to be reviewed and collected individually. In the meanwhile, if you want us to include a particular network or data, feel free to submit yourrequest here.

The documentation below explains how to use each tool and what each filter allows you to do.

1. Affiliate Program Finder

Our affiliate research tool includes a variety of data for individual programs. Note that not all affiliate programs include all the data. We have included data that was available either through networks or through third-party data providers.

Here are the different parameters available.

Keyword and Niche Topic: Enter any keyword OR search from the huge list of niche topics from dropdown menu, and you'll find all the programs related to that particular search.

Conversion Rate: Enter the minimum and maximum conversion rates, and you can further filter your results or search the entire database based on that. You will only see results for realistic searches. For example, a conversion rate of 1 to 2.5% is standard. You'll see few results if you enter a conversion rate of 10% or higher. Even if you see those results, those conversion rates are generally only possible for a few products/services.

Average Order Size: What's the typical order size customers make? This data is based on orders we tracked.

Average EPC: Average earning per click sent by affiliates based on previous sales data.

Cookie lifetime : Generally, a cookie duration of 30 to 60 days is standard, but in some cases, it is lower than that and in some cases, it is higher. We have provided data precisely as per the details published by the network.

Locations: Some programs allow traffic from only specific countries/locations only. This is generally possible with physical brick-and-mortar stores that can't/don't ship orders abroad. You can filter the programs according to that, also.

Affilate networks : You need to sign up for the affiliate program through some affiliate networks or self-hosted software. You can view various affiliate programs according to each network. You can also further filter based on available metrics.

Currency: Currency of the store/seller or vendor they're dealing in.

Product type: You can sort affiliate programs based on the product type, such as B2B, Service, Info Products, Physical Products, eCommerce Stores, and more.

Commission Types: You can filter affiliate programs based on CPA (cost per acquisition) or CPS (cost per sale).

Commission Frequency: Whether it is a one-time or recurring affiliate commission. You can select one option and filter results accordingly.

Sort Options: You can select how to sort the data. You can sort them by conversion rates and order size, but more options will be available soon.

Here are some tips when searching for the best affiliate programs.

The KPI metrics provided are not available for all the affiliate programs. Also, provided metrics are averaged based on data we received. You can get better or poor performance depending on the traffic you send to these offers. So don't solely depend on these metrics but also rely on your own testing. You can use these metrics to filter and find the best-performing programs.

4. Content Sites Research

Each website that's receiving decent organic search traffic is a success story with many footprints.

If you're a niche blogger or affiliate marketer, our content site research tool can help you explore successful content sites and blogs. You can then study how these sites are performing so well, what backlink strategies they have, what kind of content strategies they use, and learn to avoid mistakes.

Our content site research tool only focuses on sites that are doing so well through organic search traffic. You can search the database by keyword and filter by various SEO metrics such as unique backlinks, total backlinks, DA, website age, and monetization methods.

Some niche sites often rank so well on search engines with zero or minimal backlinks. The reason is that they select the right keywords. Filter the database accordingly, and you'll find hundreds of sites like that.

You can also find high-traffic sites and find keywords they're receiving the most traffic for!

Go through the guidelines below for various search options available.

Search, sort and filter Options

Search traffic: Estimated monthly visitors the site receives. You can filter data to find high-traffic sites.

Domain DR: Ahref's DR for the domain. Low DR and High traffic sites mean sites that are organically doing well with few backlinks. You can filter based on minimum and maximum DR values.

Website age: When it comes to SEO, age is one of the factors. The older the site, the more likely they are to rank if they've constantly created helpful content.

Unique domain backlinks: Estimated number of unique domain backlinks the site has.

Search by Topic: Find sites by niche keywords. You can find competitors' websites easily by searching keywords.

Ad network or Monetization: How are these sites monetized? What networks they're using? You can learn about them and filter results accordingly. You can filter from more than 20 networks.

Sort options: You can sort results by traffic, backlinks, DR, total indexed pages, and age.

5. eCommerce Sites Research

Our eCommerce Sites Research tool works almost the same way as the Content Sites Research tool. However, the only difference is these sites are eCommerce sites and not content sites. So they're mostly selling products instead of monetized by any advertising network.

Reverse engineering these sites can help you find eCommerce and dropship niches and reveal their ranking strategies, such as keywords they're targetting, the traffic they're receiving, and estimated monthly revenue and so on.

You can filter these stores by the platform they're built on, such as Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Prestashop, and many more.

Notes

  • We update data for each of the tools several times a year. This also includes new programs data and an update in existing data. The data and metrics keep changing for affiliate programs or other tools, so if you find any discrepancies in data, note that it will be addressed sooner.

  • Data we provide for various tools are averaged based on historical sales records, industry standards, or based various calculations. It would be best if you used them for reference to filter out the programs, products, or niches. It is not necessary that you'll get exactly the same kind of results. You can achieve better or poor results based on your traffic and marketing strategies.
