General Answers:
|
What do you do with the email address I provide when I sign up?
More specifically ... Will you post it online?
|
|
Your email protection is top priority. Never will it be posted on
any web page or in the code. Even in the secure control panel, no
email addresses are ever reachable for harvesting. And, of course,
never sold to any third parties.

Advertiser Answers:
|
How do I know when my ads will run?
|
|
Each ezine that you subscribe to will send a confirmation email and a schedule of when your ad will run. Watch for these email to ensure a smooth transaction.
|
|
I am getting too much email ... I can't keep up. What do I do?
|
|
If you simply create folders for each ezine you are subscribed to, it makes managing the incoming mail easier. Make sure you check the account each day. Read and then purge anything you do not need to keep your mailbox from going over the limit. This process should only take a few minutes each day.
|
|
How can I remove myself from an ezine?
|
|
The best way to remove yourself from a specific ezine is to look at the bottom of an email from them. Most likely they will have specific instructions on how to remove your name from the list. Remember that any ads that have not been run after you unsubscribe will not be run. If the directions at the bottom of the email do not work, please login to your control panel and use the remove section to send a removal email to the publisher.
|
|
What happens if my ad is not accepted into the program?
|
|
The Ezine Ad Team will work very hard to accept the ads that are submitted. If it is decided that an ad will be rejected, a full refund will be given.
|
|
Do you guarantee the number of hits my ad will receive?
|
|
The success of you ad can be determined by many factors including your ad copy or the categories of the ezines you chose. For this reason, the Ezine Ad Team cannot guarantee how many hits your ad will get or how many sales you will make.
|
|
Why would my ad be rejected?
|
|
The only time an ad will be rejected is if the content is againt the rules, or if there is a problem with the ad and we do not receive a reponse to our emails.
|
Publisher Answers:
|
Will you test the ads so that they do not to contain spam filter triggers?
|
|
I will be personally reviewing all ads before they are sent to
Publishers. If any aspect violates the rules, it will be rejected. I
also reserve the right to edit their ad to avoid spam filters. You, as
a publisher, will also have the right to reject any ad or edit it to
protect your ezine.
|
|
Will you test the domain names from the ads so that not to be blacklisted?
|
|
In the review of the ad, I will be tracking domains that are black
listed and rejecting them. And if you find a problem ad sent you, you
have the right to reject it.
|
|
What is the deadline for publishing an ad?
|
|
Deadlines are not too strict as each publisher has their own
schedule, but I would like to see ads run in a timely basis. As a
feature, if you feel you are getting too many ads, you can log in and
?suspend? your ezine until you are caught up. You can start and stop
the ezine listing at any time. (You would still be responsible for
running ads already sent to you.)
|
|
I am just staring out as a publisher, will you accept me?
|
|
Though all ezines are reviewed prior to being accepted, we welcome all new publisher who wish to grow thier list with targeted subscribers.
|
|
How do I submit an ezine to join the Ezine Ad Team program?

Login to your control panel and click the "My Ezines" Link. Once open you will see a kink to add your ezine. Once submitted, a representative will review your ezine for approval.
|

How do I update my subscriber counts?
|
|
Login to your control panel and click "My Ezines." Next to your ezine name, click the "Quick Edit" button. Once you click the button, you will be able to enter your new subscriber numbers and hit update.
|
|
I need to take some time off from the program, do I need to drop out?
|
|
No, simply login and click "My Ezines." Next to your ezine name you will see a gree "Active" button. Click this to suspend your ezine. A yellow button means it is suspended.

Affiliate Answers:
|
How are commissions paid?
|
|
Payments will be paid either through PayPal or check. You will be
able to request a payout anytime your account reaches $5.00 or more.
|
|
What affiliate program do you use?
|
|
My affiliate program will be done in-house. It will be
coded and tracked through this program only. In the control panel, you
will be able to see how many sales you bring in, what the total sale
was, what your commission will be, date, etc. You will also be
notified by email once a sale has been completed. Future features will
include link tracking.
|
|
When are commission payments paid out?
|
|
Right now payments will be sent on a request basis. If the program
grows large enough, I will set up a twice monthly schedule.
|
|
What does a commission on all sales mean?
|
|
For ads purchased using your referral id, you will make 60%.
Example: If the customer purchases $25.00 worth of advertising, and your commission rate is 50%, your
commission will be $12.50. There are no hidden fees. Future releases are expecting to
have several upgrades that you would be eligible for commission as
well if they purchase during the checkout process.
|
|
How do I get credit for a sale?
|
|
Each time a user clicks to the Ezine Ad Team website, a cookie is stored on their computer with your referral id. If anytime within the next 72 hours they make a purchase, no matter who's link they click, you will receive credit.
|
|
I did not get credit for a sale that I am sure I referred. Why?
|
|
It could be one of two reasons. Either the user had already clicked on a referral link from another member and the cookie had already been set to give them the credit. They get 72 hours to claim the sale. If it is not a case of another affiliate being in front of you for credit, then it may be that the user blocked the use of cookies on their computer, in which we have no control.
