"How does it work?
You must first register here. You log in to your account, then you build and customize your toolbar using our web interface. You select your payment level as well as your advertising choice and you are all set and ready to distribute your own toolbar. Each time a surfer installs the toolbar, you get paid!
The toolbar can be installed using an active-x, downloaded as an application or bundled into another application.
How does the referral program for affiliates works?
We offer a referral program where an affiliate can refer other affiliates and get paid 5% of their earnings. This means that for every install credited to an affiliate that you have referred, you get paid up to 1.25 cents without having anything to do! That's easy money! All you have to do is use the special link to send other affiliates to yoursitebar.com, and when they register for an account, they will be added to your list of referred accounts and you will get credits for each install they make.
Why use YourSiteBar and not another program?
YourSiteBar offers amazing opportunities to make money with your existing traffic without cutting back on your other revenues while promoting your own site and links. Because the surfer never leaves your site, the revenues generated with YourSiteBar simply add to your revenues from other cash programs. And by installing your toolbar on the surfers' desktops, you get more traffic to your site
We pay up to 0.25$ depending on the installed countries and stats can be viewed in real time.
