Hydra Network is a CPA network that offers both advertisers and affiliates a highly structured, personalized, performance based solution for their marketing and advertising needs. Hydra Network is a virtual cornucopia for affiliates due to the wide variety of programs and offers available at your fingertips. Channels of promotion include email submit, search marketing, banner advertising, popups, contextual advertising, incentivized promotions and pretty much anything else you can think of as an avenue for promotion.
With Hydra Network, I pesonally find myself conjuring up new methods of promotion when skimming through the offerings listed on the network. More often than not, when I am looking for a targeted offer, I’ll incedentally stumble across a promotion that seems like it would perform well and adapting my marketing methods to match the newly discovered option. This is one of the greatest strengths of a high-performance affiliate network.
The other aspect of Hydra Network I find refreshing is the vast majority of offers require no pre-approval before you set out marketing them. There is nothing more frustrating than getting an idea for a new program but having to slow down and wait for an approval to promote the program. I particulary dislike that aspect in networks such as Commission Junction, where sometimes I’ve waited weeks for a slacker affiliate manager to approve my application to their program. Evidently they don’t realize most of us marketers work on impulse and slowing down a potenitally lucrative affiliate by making them wait for approval is a death sentence for any serious advertiser.
The Hydra Network publisher interface is very easy to navigate and I simply love the campaign listings where you are presented with all the necessary details to seek and choose campaings you might be interested in. One thing you’ll notice when browsing through the campaigns is the amount of $20+ lead generation programs that convert like crazy if you know how to effectively exploit the niches they fall into.
Here are some of the basics facts about Hydra Network :
Overview : Established by pioneers of the Internet marketing and advertising space in 2001, Hydra Network today is a leading performance-based advertising network, and named as one of the United States’ top ten fastest-growing private companies on the 2007 Inc. 500 list.
Fraud Prevention : All affilaites are pre-screened via telephone by an affiliate manager before acceptance into the network. My screening process was very pleasant and the rep who called me was very knowledgable and informative. In our conversation, she made aware of some of the more lucrative offers available on the network. How’s that for support!!
Tips : The best tip I can offer for maximizing your potential with Hydra Network is to take some time and look through as many offers as you can before jumping in an promoting only a few. There is quite a bit of information and a wise affilaite can gleam new markets and avenues if you open your mind to the different offerings.
Service and Support : Absolutely brilliant support is what keeps Hydra Network in my personal list of premuim CPA Networks. If a network doesn’t provide you with at least an account manager you can call on the phone or at least email for help, run away and find a solid network like Hydra where you are valued and treated equally regardless if you’re a big or small affiliate.
Hydra Network Payment Options: Affiliates can opt to receive payments by check, ACH, Paypal or Wire Transfer. Payments are sent out on a Net 15 basis and there is a minimum payment amount of $50.
Affiliate Best Programs Opinion : In my opinion, Hydra Network is on the fast track to becoming an industry leader because of their wide variety of high paying promotions, tremendous support and service, ease of operation and flawless tracking. If you’re a serious affiliate marketer and you haven’t at least checked out what Hydra Network can do for you, you’re missing out on one of the greatest networks in the industry. There’s something for everyone and if you can’t make a buck with Hydra Network, you’re in the wrong business.
