Affiliate Window launched their own blog.
It’s nice to see that one more affiliate network joined the idea of having their own blog as an additional opportunity to keep in touch with their affiliates and merchants.
I would like to wish Affiliate Window good luck with their new blog and hope it will be constantly updated with useful information.

In my previous article “Which affiliate network?” I listed the main
requirements/criteria that are important for me when I choose an affiliate network.
In this article I’m going to list the UK affiliate networks that I prefer to work through.
I would highly recommend them to the people who are looking for reliable networks but haven’t signed up yet being not sure of their choice.
Note: Please, have in mind that the links below are affiliate links (of course each one affiliate marketer would put affiliate links, would this business exist if we don’t use them
).
Paid On Results (POR)
One of my favourite UK affiliate networks. I’ve never had any problem with tracking.
They offer great tools (easy deep linking, content units, free feeds, commission
payments via PayPal, fast and helpful support, 2nd Tier Commissions …). What more do you need from an affiliate network!? Ahh, yes … well converting merchants. 
Well, POR doesn’t have thousands of merchats, but most of the merchants
they work with convert very well.
Affiliate Window (Digital Window)
After a short “nap” AffiliateWindow took their well-deserved position in the affiliate market. For the last year they have made many improvements of their affiliate
system - new (or improved) tools, free feeds, fast support, fresh ideas, good number of merchants.
I easely added them to the group of my prefered UK affiliate networks.
One thing that would be nice to see them offering more options for commission payments for their international affiliates - PayPal or Direct Deposit.
Affiliate Window is one of the affiliate networks that requires a payment of (5GBP) to sign up (if your account is approved the same amount will be added to your affiliate commission balance). I’ve never regret that I’ve paid this money and started working with them.
Webgains (now a part of Adpepper company )
The network that I always deal with with a pleasure.
Great support, good affiliate tools (iSense Ad Creator, deep link generator, free data feed url generator), “problemless” tracking.
Cons - no PayPal or Direct Deposit commission payments for their International affiliates.
Buy.at
Another leader on the UK affiliate marketing.
During the last year they also made many positive changes - new management area v.3, new affiliate tools (Creative HTML, Content / Link Engine), product feeds, improved stats, very good tracking. Recently I started working with Buy.at more actively and I will do more often exactly because of the changes they made.
Cons - Sometimes you might have to wait TOO long to be approved for some of their
merchant programmes. And again - no PayPal or Direct Deposit options available for their International affiliates.
