Article Marketer Not Paying Affiliate Commissions
Article Marketer Commission Problems
It has come to my attention that Article Marketer are currently not paying their affiliate commissions - or at the very least are severely behind on payments.
I had already emailed them a week or so ago because I hadn’t had a payment in a while and then yesterday I read this post over at the Warrior forum posted by a friend of mine, Jeff Schuman.
It’s a pity that companies like this don’t treat their affiliates better. Who wants to promote a company that falls behind on payments? Certainly not me!
I have to say though that I could count on one hand the number of times I have not been paid by merchants on over 7 years of doing business online. Affiliate product owners have a great track record. No matter how small the payment has been 99% pay up.
If Article Marketer are going to bring this good record down then they will pay the price. Affiliate marketers will no longer promote their service, they will also lose the trust of their customers when the word gets out through online discussion forums and blogs like this AND eventually they will go out of business.
If Article Marketer are prepared to allow affiliate commissions to go upaid then in my opinion it will not be too long before they stiff their customers too. I happen to be a lifeimt emmeber of their Article Marketing service, so I sincerely hope this does not happen. Time will tell…
Submityourarticle.com has paid me on time every time. This is a great affiliate marketing service and has a first class affiliate program too.

[...] Number 5 really chaps my butt. Never mind the fact that they do not have money to pay their affiliates. It is obvious I am not the only one as I have posted in several Internet marketing forums about Article Marketer and several people are having the same problem.
