It’s now time to select some merchants for my make money online case study. The couponcodesvault.com blog is coming together nicely and I’m almost ready to add some content.
To start this off I will stick with merchants from CommissionJunction.com to make things easier. The only exception will be Amazon’s Associate Program.
Here are the merchants I’ve selected so far:
- Amazon
- All Web Hosting companies available on CJ;
- Buy.com
- Shop.com
- Aperion Audio
- Apple Store
- 123InkJets.com
- Carrot Ink
- StubHub
- Hewlett Packard
- ShoppersChoice.com
I don’t know how these merchants will perform yet so I might add or remove some of them through the course.
I wanted to display some ads from TTZMedia but their service is always down! So I’ve decided to apply for a Chikita.com publisher account. I am waiting for approval and I’ll let you know how it goes.
Next step: install OpenX and to display some ads on the blog and then I’m ready to start adding content!
Stay tuned!

Nice case study! Think about non-english related marketing opportunities too…

Yeah in fact my primary language is french and I live in Quebec, Canada. I haven’t got to test out this market yet. I think that Canada is very web 1.0 and there aren’t much affiliate programs yet. The payout is also very low. For example, web hosting affiliate programs pay about $60 - $120 in the US whereas in Canada it pays like $20 - $25.
Still I wanna get in this market soon, don’t know if I’ll make a case study about it.
