WELCOME!

Welcome to the Edmund Scientific’s ScientificsOnline Affiliate Program!

GETTING STARTED

1. Text Links and Creative Graphics: Portals to Profits 
 

Links and banners are the portals that lead to affiliate success. If they're attractive and easy to find, visitors will go through. Links and banners also serve to make sure our affiliates get paid. A code embedded in each banner and text link identifies your site and tracks your sales and commissions.

All of our banners and text links are available from LinkShare. Log on using your password and select the most effective tools for you to promote Edsci-Affiliates.com.

Our links and banners are updated regularly to keep them fresh and seasonal, and we create new ones for special events. We also work with our affiliates to create custom designed banners and links that best suit the needs of your web site. Banners can be of any size and feature any product or product line.  They can be static or animated. You can even provide the wording. After all, who knows your customers better than you?

2. The ScientificsOnline Customer 
 

Knowing who your audience is and what they're looking for is vital to successful affiliate marketing. Knowing what products we offer on ScientificsOnline is of equal importance because that will help you drive better, more qualified traffic to our web site which should result in more sales for us, and larger commissions for you.

The typical Edmund Scientific customer is male, between 36-50 years of age, has a college education, is married, and has a salary of between 50-75K. They are hobbyists and science enthusiasts. They love anything to do with science, exploration and nature. They love strange gadgets, unusual lighting, and unique techie toys. We see approximately 50% of our business from January to September and 50% from October to December. Parents looking for educational but fun science gifts for their children are a big market for us.

We add between 200-250 new products a year to our web site with plans to add many more in the seasons to come. For the stargazer and nature observer, we carry carefully chosen selections of telescopes as well as other optical instruments such as binoculars, spotting scopes and magnifiers. For the science hobbyist and science fair participant, we offer build-it-yourself kits, components, and robots. For the home scientist we carry microscopes including the latest in digital microscopes, chemistry labs, unique tools, balances and scales, and more. Our complete product line covers physics and electronics, magnetics and magnetism, solar energy and technology. Products range from serious science to science fun.

In truth, if someone cannot find something they need on ScientificsOnline, then they really didn’t want anything at all.
