There is no one size fits all magic bullet answer here. Anyone who answers trying to help is just shooting in the dark.
So many unknown factors.
The apple affiliate program through Performance Horizon Group has over 100 countries and pays out a flat 2% on iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, Mac App Store, and of course the online computer store.
The platform is OK and you can place a pixel to see how your campaigns are performing.
The cookie only lasts for 24 hours so if he person doesn't make a purchase immediately then you do not get credit.
As a side note I bought my last computer through my own affiliate link and it did not track through.... so I question their tracking.
If you are doing computers specifically I recommend using the Amazon affiliate platform. They sell apple products and are the same price plus ship faster. They also pay on a tiered structure starting at 4% and going all the way up to 8% depending on the volume of sales you generate.
Amazon is not available in all states though.
If you are building a business around the apple affiliate program think twice (just my 2 cents).
There are tons of gaming offers on clickbank. Big market there for that.
Yes if you have a site that has traffic these can be great streams of revenue. If you google my name and check or Adsense check you will see me holding a check and what can be possible :)
