Now, time for some green affiliate program updates:
NETWORK UPDATES:
Having put an end to
the AdSense Referral program,
Google Affiliate Network (GAN) is fully
integrated with Google Accounts and already boasting
several merchants in the Lifestyles of Health and
Sustainability (LOHAS) sector. Many of these were
originally in the Performics network and include
Arbico Organics,
Garden's Alive
(excluding New York based affiliates like myself),
MicroPlace Social
Investing,
HebsPro,
CO Bigelow Chemists,
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters,
eLightBulbs, and
bamboo/cork flooring providers,
iFloor and
Build Direct. In case
you are wondering, online purchases of thousand dollar +
orders of bamboo flooring do indeed take place online.
One of our partner sites,
www.hardwoodbambooflooring.net
has converted sales more than once!
If you are not already
a member of GAN and don't have an AdSense account (it's
free), you must first

EXPO/NETWORKING UPDATES:
Last but not least, we
are pleased to report that the latest
Green Expo event in Los
Angeles was a major success. Both B2B and Business to
Consumer day events had large turnouts. The next Green

Green Affiliate Programs will be attending.
For merchants
attending the next Green Festivals event (San

Exchange have issued a warning that a Mexico-based
operation is sending out fraudulent contracts. Event
organizers warn all exhibitors to not sign anything
before first speaking with a staff member of
