I've received my email from HubPages, telling me I have to remove affiliate links from some of my Hubs.
My ShareASale Hubs are not on the list.
So if you're looking for additional ways to monetize your Hubs, it looks like ShareASale is acceptable.
Thanks for the tip, will look into it! How has it worked for you?
They're reliable and easy to deal with. I only have one or two links here on HP so I'm not earning much from them - but I think it would be possible to do well with them, given the right topics.
It should be okay to use these because they have real products, and you generally have to pay quite a large sum just to become an affiliate with them to start with!
Large sum of money, I dont think so, or at least the affs that I am signed up with at Shareasale. . you You have to apply to the affs you want and wait for approval. I have never been asked for any money. . . just some examples of my writing.
Oli is talking about the merchants. They have to make a substantial deposit to become a member, so you can be fairly sure only serious suppliers will bother to join up.
Thanks Marissa for clearing that up, now I see what he meant. Sometimes I have seen the merchants have "low funds" or something like that.
I also have some links to Affiliate Future, whose standards for merchants are very similar - but they have been flagged.
Thanks for the information! I'll have to check them out.
All of my affiliate linking is done on my site, and I just use my Hubs to link to my site. It seems like a lot of traveling for the person to get what they want, but it seems to be working for me! I'm making sales and Hubpages isn't marking my hubs.

I've seen some hubs with affiliate links on them... such as from Commission Junction. Is there a HubPages policy on using these types of links?

Last night I went in an edited a capsule so that it would be full width, which is what HP wants everyone to do. The article I edited has been published and featured since 2012. When I went in and edited, however, the editor that read it decided that it was no longer going to be featured. I was told...

Hi everyone,I'd love to hear how you are using HP for your SEO efforts. Any tips or suggestions? I run a celebrity gossip site and use links from my hubs to feed traffic. I also have so e customized ads that I created from Bannersnack that are linked to a few of my hubs here. Thanks!
