Yahoo! Search Marketing Now Allows Direct Linking
Here’s a real policy change for YSM (Yahoo! Search Marketing) according to the lastest CJ Wire newsletter from Commission Junction:
After more than six months in the making and much customer feedback and testing, we are pleased to announce that Yahoo! Search Marketing (YSM) has recently updated its editorial policies and will now allow U.S. publishers to direct link to their advertisers. In the past, YSM’s editorial policy prevented publishers from linking directly to their advertiser partners and required that traffic be sent first to the publisher’s Web site. The new policy eliminates this restriction and opens a much broader search marketing opportunity for publishers.
This YSM policy change is the result of a strong relationship between Commission Junction and YSM. We have spent more than six months working with YSM to enact the new editorial policy and are very pleased that this effort has resulted in changes that are sure to create opportunities for our publishers and advertisers.
We find this policy change exciting on several levels. First, this is a significant shift for YSM and could be a great opportunity for your search marketing campaigns. Second, you heard it here first – YSM has asked us to communicate this change to the affiliate community. Third, the work we’ve done with YSM on this policy change is just another example of our commitment to listening to and speaking up for our publishers.
Although I’m sure there will be lots of blog buzz heralding this change over the next few days - I won’t be dancing in the streets as competition and click prices over at YSM increase and worse, as more affiliates choose a linking method that does nothing to build either their lists or their business in the long-term.

Click2Sell: Clickbank Has Some Competition
Have you heard about Click2Sell, the new online marketplace that has positioned itself as a direct competitor to Clickbank and Paydotcom?
While chatting with one of Click2Sell’s owners, Vytis, I learned that the Click2Sell group really took Clickbank merchant and affiliate complaints into account and built a much-improved marketplace and affiliate network.
Unlike Clickbank, Click2Sell permits the sale of physical products (as well as digital goods and subscriptions) and does not charge its vendors a set-up fee. Better still, managers can track and control affiliate activities - meaning that they can actually communicate with their affiliates.
Wow! WHAT a concept!
So impressed was I about Click2Sell’s features, that I wrote a review that includes a fairly exhaustive list of Click2Sell’s major features and benefits called Click2Sell Review: Clickbank Has Some Competition.

SBI! Owners Speak
I know I haven’t written much about the SBI! (Site Build iT!) web site building recently, believing that webmasters will become more self-sufficient in the long run if they start their business by going the blogging route with BlueHost and Wordpress.
That plan may be too much of a stretch for some new webmasters, however, and where SBI! is an excellent fit.
Rather than list the 100’s of features and benefits of Ken Evoy’s SBI!, I thought it would be better if you saw videos of SBI! owners saying exactly what they love about the website builder.
There are 12 videos on this page and you’ll see why everyone from work-at-home moms, retirees, regular guys and even 6-years - with a WIDE range of interests - can manipulate SBI! with ease.
Better yet, Ken is having his annual I Love SBI! $100 Valentine’s Day Special… valid only until the stroke midnight on February 14th, 2008.

Clickbank Offers International Direct Deposit
I received an email yesterday announcing that Clickbank is making International Direct Deposit (XACH) payments available. I had to look at the email several times before I realized that it wasn’t a scam. 
Here is a snippet from that notice:
You are receiving this e-mail to inform you that ClickBank has a new method available to provide payment to you on your ClickBank account(s). ClickBank is pleased to offer a new service, International Direct Deposit (XACH), for direct deposit of your ClickBank account payments! XACH offers a fast and reliable method for direct deposit of your account payments in your local currency. Best of all, XACH is offered at no extra charge, including conversion to your home currency which is done at published market rates.
The benefit to XACH payments is that they are sent on the same day that checks are normally sent out - either the 1st or 15th of the month - and Clickbank advises that it typically takes “1-2 days for Canada, 2-3 days for Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, The Netherlands, and New Zealand, 3-4 days for Austria, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, and 4-5 days for Spain” - or considerably faster than by snail mail.
If you are a Clickbank affiliate, check your mail for this notice. It includes information on how to contact them to arrange interational direct deposits by either phone or through the website.

Aweber Feedburner Integration
Aweber announced yesterday that their RSS-to-email tool now integrates with Feedburner’s tracking and publishing service.
By result, bloggers who use both services and convert their feeds to email newsletters using Aweber’s Blog Broadcast will now see their subscriber statistics within the Feedburner interface. They will also see a spike in subscriber numbers displayed on the Feedburner ‘chicklet’.
Justin Premick, Education Marketing Manager at AWeber also predicted that “The more subscribers you can boast, the more likely new visitors are to subscribe to your blog, and the more likely companies are to want to advertise on your blog.”
This is excellent news for those of us who have wanted to connect with our Feedburner subscribers on a more personal level by customizing the email that we send out to them… and now with the help of my all-time favorite autoresponder service provider, Aweber, we can!
