Hi there.
Me=Andi, 27 years old guy from NJ, working as a freelance with Inter-Dev Web Marketing, who also happen to host this site.
In the past years, I have been making my living from promoting stuff on the web. My main kick is learning new stuff and techniques of promoting and selling stuff on the web. I consider my self as very fortunate being able to work in this field and make a decent living out of it. I hope i can contribute some of my knowledge to the newbies out there making their first steps in the affiliate marketing world.
Cheers, Andi- the affiliate shark.

USA affiliate programs, are affiliate programs that are based in the US (the merchant) and allow affiliates that operate in the USA and deliver USA traffic to enrol in.
The reason why I, as a US affiliate, prefer working with these type of affiliate programs are because of the following reasons:
A. USA based merchants deliver their goods faster then other merchants. If my traffic source is mainly from the US, then i would like to promote merchants whom i know will deliver these goods quickly and easily, thus result in a higher conversion rate.
B. USA based merchants have a different approach to clients than other merchants from EU or Middle East for example. This is mainly due to the fact that, customer service in the US is outstanding, many of the merchant allow 30 days money back guaranteed and the US customer loves it.
C. Customers from the US, feel more secure when purchasing goods from US based merchants. I, as an affiliate would want to make them feel as good as possible, so that the transaction would occur.
These are only a few reasons, why i believe US traffic should be targeted towards USA merchants and advertisers. There are many factors other than prices and my commissions as an affiliate that will take part in choosing the most proper affiliate programs to work with, and as a US affiliate these are the ones i find relevant in my case.
