Ferre is right, you have to find which affiliate program suits your system the best.
It is pointless me recommending one for you and you find a better one later.
This is where you will have to research into it dude. Unless you want to hire me that is

I covered my main point in the review of your site, but to reiterate and expand...
I was watching a video by Corey Rudl. Many loved him, many disapproved of his techniques. He sadly died last year in a car crash...
however, one point he made on this video was, with well targetted keywords, all your visitors will be after your product. Why else would they have searched for your chosen keywords? So, you can effectively build a one site page with one paragraph, a nice picture and a "buy now" button. Because you will have targetted your keywords so well, your visitors credit card is already on the desk in front of them.
What you need to do is look over your page and find out why it isn't converting. Tweak it, play with it, try things out.
Then you need to get more traffic.

I'll just put one more vote in for more visitors. PPC (pay per click) via Google adwords (as mentioned) or yahoo's Overture is an easy and quick start. I used PPC as an initial injection for targeted traffic while learning and practicing SEO.
|
OK, I want to comment on my own quote. yahoo's Overture actually has shown me very poor results compared to Google's Adwords. So if you had a small budget for PPC I'd focus it all on Google.

I thought Overture displays ads on Yahoo! and a lot of other Search Engines? Are all of them combined together inferior to Google's PPC AdWords?

exactly. but adwords of course does the same thing. I've just noticed that out of all the orders I've received this year as referrals from a Google or Overture ad, 99% have been Google related.
I get clicks through overture, but very poor conversion.

I just thought of another one that is helpful.
Translate your site and e-book into a few other popular languages. There are plenty of companies who will do this for you.
So many website owners overlook the advantage of having search engine placement in Spanish, French or any number of languages.
It may seem like lot’s of work but the payoff is there.
“Hottest Wholesale Sources”
May be tough to reach in the top 10 serp but “Las Fuentes Al por mayor Más calientes” may be much easier.

How to Add Translation Links
Here is the code which is taken straight from my website which will translate whichever page you have into 12 languages. Just copy and paste:
Quote:
<a title="English to German" href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=<?echo $currenturl;?>&langpair=en%7Cde&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8">German</a> |
<a title="English to Spanish" href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=<?echo $currenturl;?>&langpair=en%7Ces&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8">Spanish</a> |
<a title="English to French" href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=<?echo $currenturl;?>&langpair=en%7Cfr&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8">French</a> |
<a title="English to Italian" href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=<?echo $currenturl;?>&langpair=en%7Cit&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8">Italian</a> |
<a title="English to Portuguese" href="http://translate.google.com/translate?u=<?echo $currenturl;?>&langpair=en%7Cpt&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8">Portuguese</a> |
<a title="English to Dutch" href="http://world.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?url=<?echo $currenturl;?>&lp=en_nl">Dutch</a> |

Cut down some pics... from your site... your site loads too slow.... well this could also be a major problem... if people dont see some thing valuable in splits seconds then they just find new site and your business is gone... so make it a fast downloadable website...

I may be right off the mark, and it could be pricey but you could consider becoming a merchant and run your own affiliate program...
If your site is'nt an affiliate site now that is....
Is it your own stock???
I can put you onto a friend who is an affiliate manager if you like??
PM me if you do.
