I have some questions regarding the links to your advertisers and affiliates. Basically these are based on my wanting to make sure that I am utilizing your links so that they are as profitable as possible for you.

First, do you receive the same commission from the companies regardless of what link we use to get from your site to theirs? For example, is the commission the same if I use an advertising banner as if I used the price search and linked from there?

Do you receive the same commission if we link to another site from ADT and add titles into their shopping cart as if we utilize your shopping cart for all titles and then link to the same site?

Do you get the same commission from all of the stores? I know that if I had the choice of two stores with the same price, I would certainly choose the site that would be more profitable for you.

If I were to link from your site to another, and then bookmark that address, would you get credit for any future visits to that site if I used that bookmark? Many times I will go directly to a site, and it would be nice if I could still give you affiliate credit.

Whatever information you can provide, without violating any confidentiality agreement that you might have would be appreciated.

Hi Bill - First, thank you for wanting to support the site - we REALLY appreciate it.
Most links within our site have affiliate codes attached. We receive the same commission on all of them.

Banners are the only "paid for" advertising on our site. We do not receive commission when someone clicks through a banner. However, there would be no Adult DVD Talk without advertisers. So either way you're supporting adt.

It's all the same. The shopping cart transfer is only so you don't have to add things twice - just a measure of convenience. The only reasons some stores don't have that option is because they chose not to implement on their end, don't have the time to implement on their end, or they don't have in-house developers.
There is some variation, but we don't receive 'special' commission from any of the stores. We get the same as any other of their affiliates. Almost all stores have their affiliate commission publicly available on their sites.

Frankly, we would prefer to get the standard commission rate of 10% if that would help stores keep their prices down. Lower prices = more sales - it all comes out the same in the end (except of course that the consumer pays less.)

Depends on how the store's affiliate program works. We provide a means to bookmark stores with our affiliate code on the store info pages.

Did I miss anything?

Thanks again, Bill.

BTW - I should add that while we share the commissions on Kickback orders, we would really like to see more and more people using the program. The more people that use Kickbacks, the more we become a group buying force, rather than a bunch of individual shoppers. It's really a win-win situation for everyone.
