The HockeyMonkey.com affiliate program allows website owners to earn commissions by placing HockeyMonkey.com advertisements on their sites.

AffiliateTraction's CEO, Greg Shepard, explains the benefits of an affiliate campaign: "Internet retailers take on less front-end risk by paying for a sale only after it's made. Performance advertising allows merchants extensive promotion with cost-effective results. Costs are incurred only when impressions convert, offering free branding in the process. We utilize our experience, knowledge, relationships, and reputation to optimize clients' programs. HockeyMonkey.com is a great merchant to promote through the affiliate channel. Their offering is niche, and their target audience is made up of enthusiasts, which is perfect for affiliate marketing because their advertisements will be placed on relevant sites with little initial investment."
