  1. What do I need to become an Affiliate?
    Nothing - except your desire to be an Affiliate.
    The GAST Affiliate Program is included FREE with your membership.

    You don't even need a website (although having your own website helps). You can promote our product via search engines, postings in internet forums, or simply email to all your friends and people you know with your Affiliate Link to our GAST website.

    If you have a website all you need to do is to send your contacts and connections to our site via a special link (called 'Affiliate Link'). If he or she joins, you will get 10% of the sale value.

  2. How do I know I will be paid for my referral?

    When the visitor follows your Affiliate Link to our GAST site, our Affiliate System registers this referral and places a cookie on his or her computer.

    When the visitor joins GAST, the Affiliate System checks for the cookie (if not found, checks for IP address of referral) and credits your account 10% of the purchase value. This process is absolutely automatic. All your referrals will be properly tracked for you.

  3. How is the payment handled?

A few ways to make money with our Affiliate Program

  1. Write a review of our Association and its’ purposes, letting people know how good it is. Include your Affiliate Link at the end of the review. Post your review to free sites such as GoArticles.com and EzineArticles.com.
  2. If you own an email list of newsletter subscribers or other people who have opted in to receive email offers from you, send them an email telling them about our website, and feel free to use some text from our homepage in your email. Include your Affiliate Link at the end of the email.
  3. Create a free blog (web log) at sites such as Blogger.com including your Affiliate Link. Then "ping" your blog at a site such as Pingomatic.com, so it gets picked up quickly by search engines.
  4. Join popular social media or marketing forums such as WarriorForum.com, and make frequent contributions to popular threads there. Be sure to go into your forum profile and edit your "signature".
