Bone Fish takes a leap in the right direction

At the start of the year, Bone Fish Ltd introduced a new 100% bonus scheme with very attainable and very realistic targets to help all affiliates generate more commission than ever before. This scheme pays out 100% commission on all new sales that are made over-and-above an affiliate's bonus target. Bonus targets are set in accordance with an affiliate's individual sales history - and thus, all affiliates are given the chance to smash their targets and take home that bit more. Due to the fact that Bone Fish reassesses all targets on a monthly basis - and revises them accordingly - most affiliates are finding that their goals are changing each month. As such, Bone Fish Ltd wants to make it easier for affiliates to identify what targets they need to hit in order to reach their objectives.


See your monthly bonus target online

If you take a look in the online admin centre under your affiliate account, and head into the ?Statistics section, you'll notice that down the left hand menu there is a new link to a new page titled "Bonus"Here, you can view what your new monthly target has been set at (this may or may not have changed and largely depends upon your previous month's sales figures), view the sum of your actual sales, and view how many sales you have left to make before you shatter your target.

Also on this page you can see how this information relates to your performance history and thus, you can see what quantity of commission you're likely to make at the end of the month. The required daily average gives you an indication of what you have to achieve on a daily basis to make hitting your target a likely scenario; the average sale is the current mean price that your site charges its members for a subscription, and your estimated commission looks at the larger picture and gives a realistic representation of what you could be taking home.

With the new bonus page that lies within the online admin centre, identifying your objectives and targets couldn't be simpler. Take a look and see for yourself. It's reasonably self-explanatory, but if you do require more assistance with this matter, feel free to contact the affiliate team at: affiliates@bone-fish.com , or contact us through our online help desk at http://www.bone-fish.com/.


Keep track of your traffic

This month there are even more innovations and advances afoot at Bone Fish Ltd. After having received numerous requests regarding the inclusion of a conversion tracker, Bone Fish has finally gone ahead and included this commodious feature to the service.

Now, by entering the admin centre and by adding a tracking code to the "HTML Edit" page, affiliates that have employed CPC marketing campaigns or similar can better track conversions for both the "registration" and the "payment confirmation" pages. With this feature affiliates now have more control over the marketing of their sites, and can adjust their bids based on the actual performance of each individual campaign, ad and ad variation for their networking site(s).

The team at Bone Fish Ltd listen to their affiliates and always do their utmost to take heed of suggestions, queries and issues put to them by their associates. So if you have something to say, an idea you would like to try out, or a feature that you think would improve the service as a whole, email us: mike.fitzgerald@bone-fish.com and we'll place it under discussion.
