Woot Launches Affiliate Program

Wholesale distributor Woot.com, which Amazon.com acquired last July, launched an affiliate program this week. In its typical irreverent style, Woot called it, "a way to make our fans do the dirty work of attracting new members without us having to pay to play in Madison Avenue's leagues." Woot is publisher of the Woot.com Daily Deals website and Deals.Woot.com, a deals aggregator site. Commission Junction will administer the Woot Publisher Program and will provide publishers with third-party tracking, real-time reporting, and monthly commission checks. Residents of North Carolina and Rhode Island are not eligible for the program.
