Based on various polls and surveys, we can confidently state that around one-fifth of affiliates are using affiliate program directories to find programs to join [more in my Are Affiliate Program Directories Dying? and Effective Affiliate Recruitment Through Affiliates’ Eyes posts].
The only logical question to follow this data is:
What are the top affiliate program directories to submit my program information to?
Here’s a list I’m suggesting:
- AffiliatesDirectory.com
- AffiliateFirst.com
- AffiliatePrograms.com
- AffiliateRanker.com
- AffiliateScout.com
- AffiliateSeeking.com
- AllAffiliatePrograms.com
- AssociatePrograms.com
- JamAffiliates.com
- Top-Affiliate.com

Great post as ever Geno.
There are several on that list that we have not submitted our program to yet so thanks!
Great list, I’ll take a closer look.
Andy and Andy, glad you’ve found the list of help.
Great List Geno, Will definitely look at it closely.
You can add another, affiliateprogramslocator.com
Nice list Geno!
I’ll also list a newer affiliate program directory… AffiliateLister.com
Out of that list, which are the creme de le creme (excuse my French spelling if that is wrong .. lol … but seriously, I will submit our affiliate program to all of them, but just curious as to see what kind of results others are getting.
Crème de la crème… close, just missed those funky E’s 🙂
I took the liberty to save you some time and add your “Seeds of the Month Club” affiliate program to http://www.AffiliateLister.com.
Please take a look and let me know if anything needs to be updated.
p.s. Really like your site – very clean.
Geno, love the list and totally agree, more and more of our affiliates find niche offers using directories.
For our network, it’s important to be listed. Something lots of programs and networks forget to do; make sure the directories (ones who support this) have access to your offer’s API feed.
When networks pull on your offer API, they’ll be able to provide searchers specifics on the offers your program or network have.
This list is very old. Consider adding AffiliateWatch, its a much more up to date platform.
Thanks Geno for the list.
