If you are an affiliate- you will want to consider promoting programs catering to individuals with bad credit. Why? Because of the tremendous demand!

Millions of consumers have less than perfect credit. In addition- in 2004 nearly 1.6 million people in the United States filed for bankruptcy – and that number is expected to increase in 2005- due to the new bankruptcy legislation that recently went into effect. In short- this is a HUGE market!

Okay- so we know there’s a market – but what products or services are people with poor credit looking for?

Here are some popular categories: Auto loans- credit cards- home loans- refinancing- checking accounts- personal loans- and information products (e-books- membership sites- courses- etc).

If you look at the number of searches done for bad credit related loans and financing- you’ll find that a lot of people out there are looking for the “right” lender to help them. Many of them know their local bank would probably turn them down in a second if they applied for a loan.

They need a lender that specializes in working with individuals with poor credit… or information that they can use to increase their credit score so they can qualify for an auto loan- home loan- credit card- etc. with their local bank. That’s where you come in!
As an affiliate you can direct them to various lenders and information products – and get paid for it if the person signs up for the service- or purchases the information product- under your affiliate ID#!

So where do you find such services and information products to promote. There are a few ways:

1) Search Engines: Type “affiliate directories” into your favorite search engine. Next visit the websites you find and click on the finance- credit or related categories. If you want to promote real estate related services (i.e.- home loans) for people with poor credit- you could see if they have “real estate” category.

2) ClickBank: Another ideal starting place is ClickBank.
Approximately 10- 000 vendors sell their digital products and services through ClickBank. In addition- there are over 100- 000 ClickBank affiliates.
Once you’ve signed up for their affiliate program- visit their Marketplace – you can go to the category “Money & Employment” and then click on the “Debt” link. It will provide you with a listing of all of the information products and services you can promote in the category.

3) Other Popular Affiliate Networks: In addition to ClickBank- other affiliate networks you will want to consider signing up with are Commission Junction and LinkShare. To find more affiliate networks- simply type “affiliate networks” into your favorite search engine.

4) Surfing the Net: Let’s say you come across a website offering a secured credit card which you’d like to promote. Look for a link (usually near the bottom or top of the website) that says “affiliates” or “make money”- or something similar. If there is none- email the site owner (they should have a “contact us” link) and ask if they have an affiliate program.

Hopefully this article has given you some ideas on how you- as an affiliate- can cash in on the consumer credit trend and provide a valuable service at the same time – matching individuals that have poor credit with the appropriate service or information product that will help them.
