33 Reviews of the Best Affiliate Marketing Forums

Here is a list of the top 33 affiliate marketing forums.

  1. 5 Star Affiliates 
    Alexa:  134,671 | Compete: 22,639 | Members: 7,000+ | PR: 4
    5 Star Affiliates is one of the best all around sources for affiliate marketing information and networking.  Linda Bouquet, the owner of the site, does a great job of providing free resources for anyone interested in affiliate marketing.  They specialize in helping new affiliate marketers get started and pointed in the right direction.  The forum is pretty active and all topics revolve around the affiliate marketing world. The moderators are also very quick to help and answer questions.  There is also a thread for affiliate managers to post their affiliate program for feedback and review!

  2. Affiliate Forum
    Alexa:  249,190 | Compete: 452,526 | Members: 2,000+ | PR:  4
    Affiliate Forum seems to sometimes be un-moderated with the amount of "spam" posts that are posted daily, but always has a few hundred active users online at any given time.  Posts can at times receive a lot of views, but responses are few and far between.  The fact that the domain is "AffiliateForum.com" guarantees them a certain amount of affiliate traffic, so even though there is a lot of spam, it's one not to ignore.  A thread for website reviews is also available here.

  3. Search Engine Watch
    Alexa:  19,877 | Compete: 3,357 | Members: 15,000+ | PR:  7
    Search Engine Watch Forums is a very popular forum for SEO and affiliate marketing topics.  The more active in the community you are, the more boards and threads that you have access to post to.  They have a small section dedicated to affiliate marketing but still gets a lot of traffic and attention.

  4. Affiliates 4u
    Alexa:  74,834 | Compete:  73,596 | Members: 26,000+ | PR:  4
    Affiliates 4u is a great forum with a lot of activity.  Based out of the UK, they focus on UK affiliate programs, but also has a section for all other countries as well.  The general affiliate marketing threads are universal, but they focus on talking about affiliate programs that are most successful in the UK.  This forum is very active, with 1,000 users online at any given time.

  5. Affiliate Link
    Alexa:  589,606 | Compete:  948,353 | Members: 500+ | PR:  1
    Affiliate Link is much smaller and less active than most of the affiliate forums out there.  There is enough activity to get some results from joining the community, but would not spend as much time as the rest of them.  You will at most see 20 or 30 active users online.  With only 575 total members, there are better places to spend time.

  6. Affiliate Helper
