Virtual Affiliate Program Launches

Posted by Adam Viener

Second Life has been on for forefront of what I call Economy 2.0, where people are making real world cash buying and selling goods and services in the virtual worlds of massive multiplayer online games (MMOGs). Today I received an email from Linden Labs, the makers of Second Life, indicating that they have moved to a totally virtual affiliate model. Here is how it works:

1. You have to have a Second Life account to be an affiliate of theirs.
2. Your new affiliate URLs will be tied to your Second Life Accounts
3. You will receive 1,000 Linden Dollars for each Premium account referred.

So no more US Dollar Payments for affiliates, you will have to play to be paid....

Interesting... Thoughts?
