Family Coats Affiliate Program

Do you have a website or blog related to family crests, coats of arms, heraldry, or just nationalities in general? Becoming an affiliate and selling my products is an easy way for you to earn some extra money.

Below is a table that depicts the commission tiers.

You will notice that the the program starts out at rate of 15%, which is fairly competitve when compared to other affiliate programs out there. You will also notice that the commission quickly jumps to 22%, which is an excellent rate, and is actually 2% more than I myself make per sale. Level 3 and Level 4 offer unprecented comission percentages, but in all honesty, will be more difficult to reach for the casual affiliate. However, they can be obtained by those who take marketing very seriously.

This site will describe two different ways you can make money by helping refer sales to my shop.



The first way is very simple. You can sign up for a Zazzle account and obtain an associate ID. You can download the instructions here. It should honestly take less than 5 minutes.

From there, you can link to any of my pages or products just by appending ?rf=yourassociateID to any URL. yourassociateID should be an 18 digit number that you obtained from Zazzle by following the above instructions, for example 112233445566778899.

For example you can link to my entire Zazzle store.

Normal URL: http://www.zazzle.com/coatsofarms
New URL: http://www.zazzle.com/coatsofarms/?rf=yourassociateID


Or you can link to an individual product (ex. Coddington Family Crest).

Normal URL: http://www.zazzle.com/coddington_family_crest_tshirt-235885918583187844
New URL: http://www.zazzle.com/coddington_family_crest_tshirt-235885918583187844?rf=yourassociateID


Or you can link to a section of my shop (ex. Italian Family Crests)

Normal URL: http://www.zazzle.com/coatsofarms/gifts?cg=196057227110653025
New URL: http://www.zazzle.com/coatsofarms/gifts?cg=196057227110653025?rf=yourassociateID


You can link to any page within my shop just by attaching ?rf=yourassociate ID to the end of the URL.



This method will involve a little more work, but can be more profitable. I have developed a tool that basically allows you to recreate my entire database of designs on your own website. So you could have all of my products for sale on your website, say example123.com. This gives you access to a store that would take you hundreds hours to create on your own!

You can see an example of how it works here:
Sample affiliate website

You basically can let your visitors search for all of my designs. The main difference will be that the URLs that lead to the individual Zazzle products will have your associate ID appended to them, so that you can receive credit for the sale.

I hired a computer programmer to create this tool for me. If you have knowledge of some basic programming, you will be able to install it yourself. Please download the affiliate kit for the proper files and instructions. If you cannot install this on your own, I can hire my programmer to help you, or just install it for you.

Please email me if you are interested in this programmer. I can help answer any questions you may have. I will work with you.
