Any Other Alternatives?

Hello. I am building a affililate store

I have found the below affiliate software from i dev direct:

http://www.idevdirect.com/idevaffiliate.php

My question is, I am looking for a cheaper alternative software for my ecommerce website? There gold package for $200 looks great and suites my need but need to factor in a lot of other cost.

Looking for all the options the gold package has but a free or cheaper option. Need for affiliates to be able to make banners, track visitors, make affiliate email links, etc.

Do you guys know any good hosted solution?

Good hosted Affiliate Software is Post Affiliate Pro.
Check http://www.affplanet.com/

There is even Free account which will fit you needs if you need just basic affiliate program. Or you can upgrade later to payed version if you will start to have more affiliates.

They have a monthly plan. For my 30k visitors, I would need a bigger package. Idev plan starts at $99 flat fee and in 1 year, would save more money with them

Any other good affiliate programs/software that has a hosted solution?

Here is a FREE Open Source may be good? I'm going to Try it on my new project.

peace out!
