PepperJam Network (PJN) is one on the most highly anticipated CPA affiliate networks, generating a significant buzz amongst the industry elite due to the fact that it was created by affiliate marketers for affiliate marketers. I eagerly signed up last week and have been exploring the PepperJam Network publisher interface and reporting tools thoroughly before writing this initial review. Any regular readers of this blog should be familiar with the fact that I only prefer to “work with” and promote only the most professional, transparent, established affiliate programs. PepperJam meets up to all three criteria in that it has a transparent business model, is extremely professional and was established by a very reputable organization.
If you haven’t heard about PepperJam or you’re one of the few publishers who hasn’t already joined PepperJam Network CPA affiliate program, here’s the basic information their website :

Pepperjam Network (PJN) is a next generation affiliate marketing network, which addresses two primary issues that have been lacking in the affiliate marketing industry for years: (1) poor and unreliable communication tools and (2) lack of transparency. With PJN, affiliates and merchants can communicate in real-time via Pepperjam Chat™, thereby providing a reliable communication system to build better, more profitable partnerships. PJN also provides affiliates and merchants with a measure of transparency, which helps to establish trust and lays the groundwork for open, long-term, profitable relationships.
PJN is designed to make the experience of affiliate marketing profitable and educational for both merchants and affiliates. Unlike most other traditional networks PJN uses Web 2.0 technology to provide affiliates and merchants with an easy-to-use, clean interface. In addition, PJN offers industry leading SID-level tracking and reporting - this robust technology is especially beneficial to search marketing and sophisticated super affiliates that want to take advantage of the most up-to-date technology available to track at the keyword level. ATTN BLOGGERS: The Pepperjam Network Referral Program is a great opportunity for you to make money by referring your readers to join Pepperjam Network.

For those of you familiar with the Commission Junction publisher interface, PepperJam’s layout is similar in it’s cosmetic appearance but as soon a you start navigating around your account, it becomes apparent that PepperJam is not your “average” affiliate program and there’s some serious horsepower lurking under the hood of this muscle car of affiliate programs. Comparing PepperJam’s publisher tools and reporting features to a second rate network such as ClickBank, PayDotCom, ShoppingAds, AuctionAds, etc is like comparing a 1971 Ford Pinto to a 1969 Hemi Charger. While both may get you from point “a” to point “b”, it’s what’s “under the hood” that that counts and from my inspection, PepperJam is a 426 Hemi Big Block compared to a bicycle with a lawnmower engine duct taped to the back wheel (see illustration)
I’m not going to go into extensive detail about PepperJam’s publisher interface and setting up ads in this review although in the process of preparing this review, there was so much to say about PepperJam that I decided to break this article into several seperate posts that I’ll be publishing later this week. I’ll also be publishing an article entitled PepperJam Secrets, Tips and Tricks for my RSS feed readers only, so be be left out. Be sure not only to join PepperJam but subscribe to my RSS feed as well.
Happy Publishing,
Dave
