Traffic Synergy is another affiliate network, but the beauty of this one is that it is local! They have an office at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town. This means that payments are made in rands, and minimum payout values of R250.00 are available, which is wonderful for those people who are new to the whole monetizing situation. Receiving your first cheque is an inspiring and motivating feeling, so to receive one, even if it’s just for R250, is a great feeling!

Being an affiliate network, once again, publishers and advertisers are taken into account. Traffic Synergy has a couple good advantages for each of these, I shall list them below:

Publishers:

  • FREE Quick sign up - start earning right away.
  • CPM, CPC, CPL, CPA campaigns
  • High Commissions & Fast, Ontime payments

Advertisers:

  • No Signup Fees
  • Promote your offer to thousands of our affiliates.
  • We handle the tracking and payment to affiliates.

Traffic Synergy was founded by Eric Edelstein, an inspirational capital venturist and entrepreneur, and someone I speak to occassionaly, who gives me excellent, sound advice. Eric Edelstein co-founded the search marketing company, incuBeta in 2003 and then went on to purchase affiliate network TrafficSynergy.com from the company. He is currently director of a number of company’s focusing both on online as well as offline ventures, spanning a range of different industries. He is passionate about the Internet and South Africa’s future online potential and still spends many hours keeping up to date with the latest trends relating to search marketing, affiliate marketing, social networking and blogging.

Another huge factor, which attracted me to their system, is the fact that each publisher is added to an msn list, which makes it easy to get advice. I have been assigned to Shelly, who is more than happy to answer any of my questions, as well as give me excellent advice. She has never kept me waiting on MSN for more than 30seconds, which is absolutely amazing in my opinion.

Dr Rochelle (Shelly) Levin - After completing her PhD in Applied Mathematics (cum laude) from the University of Natal at age 25, Shelly moved to Cape Town to be an equity analyst with AllanGray Asset Management. Realising the potential of online advertising, Shelly became a founding investor of Incubeta. Feeling the attraction on the virtual world, she turned to modeling affiliate pricing structures for a world leading online gambling chain, Carmen Media Group. Currently, when she is not gyming, running or absorbing every possible ray the sun will spare, you will find her strategizing and cementing the direction for TrafficSynergy.

All in all, this is probably in the top 3 affiliate network systems I have used during my experience as a web entrepreneur, and I recommend that anyone based in South Africa, MUST take a look at their system.
