Maximize your revenue opportunities. Partner with top-tier Advertisers through the tyBit search engine. A Partner, also known as a Publisher or Affiliate, is an independent party with web traffic and a user or subscriber base. They promote the products and services of Advertisers to their end-users, members or subscribers on tyBit in exchange for a commission on leads or sales generated through the tyBit Search Engine and Ad Module. Partners include OEMs, Media, Service Providers, Software Companies, Social Networks and Internet Access Providers. tyBit will display Advertisers’ ads, text links, or product links on your Web site(s), in e-mail campaigns, or in search listings that have a pinpointed relevancy to what your end-users search for on your Web site(s). A Partner is paid a 30% to 40% commission of gross revenue generated through searches by tyBit when the end-user takes a specific action, such as clicking on a PPC or KWR ad, watching a video ad, filling out a form, subscribing to a service (both lead examples) or making a purchase (a sale). tyBit's network provides Partner Publishers with opportunities to team with leading Advertisers while having access to millions of searches, links and offers on a daily basis. As the Market Maker, tyBit provides a Partner total transparency by publishing the performance metrics of all Advertisers, their respective ads and the ads of Partners and Publishers within the tyBit Marketplace. Additionally, strategic advice and featured weekly Advertiser offers are available to tyBit Marketplace Partners through newsletters and the Partner Back Room Module, our comprehensive online resource. Top-performing Partner Publishers who qualify have a distinct advantage in meeting their objectives and getting maximum return for their efforts with our Partner Module.

Performance based advertising is paying for actions taken by a consumer as they occur on the Internet, rather than paying up front for advertising space. It is also any type of revenue sharing program where a tyBit Partner / Publisher receives a commission for generating a lead or sale for an Advertiser.

An ASP is an online network that is accessible through the Internet instead of through the installation of software. It is quickly integrated with other Web sites and the services are easily implemented and scalable. An example of an ASP is the tyBit Affiliate and AdVAR programs where anyone can resell advertising in tyBit, and as an Affiliate, have a revenue share for displaying tyBit ads on their site.

A commission payout is an amount of income received by a Publisher for some quantifiable action such as selling an Advertiser's product and/or service on the Publisher's Web site.

A click-through refers to the action a consumer takes when they are referred from one Web site through a link or advertisement and they are taken to another Web site. Click-through ratio is the percentage of clicks for the number of advertising impressions displayed.

An impression is the viewing of an advertising banner, link, or product on the Internet. Every time the page loads an impression is created.

When you sign up as an Advertiser, you select keywords for your ad campaign that are most relevant to your Web site or business. Ads are displayed in tyBit from most visible and clicked on (top middle three positions) and down the right hand side (remaining seven positions) on the first page of a search. You bid against competitors for those keywords for one of these position. In any of these positions, we can serve text, banner or video ads. Your ad position is determined by either Pay-Per-Click (PPC). With PPC, you are only charged when someone searches for your type of business or organization and then click on your ad, either taking the searcher to your Web Site or playing a video commercial. You can also bid and register a keyword for 24-hour periods and assure your ad position at a flat rate regardless of the number of clicks. This is called Key-Word-Registration (KWR).

CPA is a metric for online advertising where a rate is set for every action that is taken by a user. Typically this is when an Advertiser will place some tyBit checkout code on their shopping cart or online order form when a lead is actually converted to a sale by tyBit. The Advertiser would pay a % above the bid price.

CPM is a metric for online advertising where a rate is set for every thousand impressions.

RPC is one of many reports provided to Partner Publishers and Advertisers that measures the ability to convert clicks into commissions. For Publishers, an Advertiser's RPC shows how well that Advertiser converts traffic into actual sales or leads. For Advertisers, a Publisher's RPC shows how well that Publisher sends relevant traffic to Advertisers' sites. RPC is published as a reporting feature only in tyBit’s Ad module and Partner Module.

The conversion rate is the percentage of visitors who take a desired action. The action that determines conversion is determined by the Advertiser and may be a click through or sale on the Advertiser's Web site, a completed lead form, or another action.

An Advertiser has a product or service it wants to advertise and sell via the Internet. tyBit Advertisers simply sign up and create their ad campaigns. A tyBit account manager screens applicants using criteria such as the Advertiser's business model, objectives and ads to provide assistance in maximizing the Advertiser’s return on investment. Advertisers pay to activate their programs and must also meet a monthly minimum in transaction revenue or pay a monthly fee if the minimum is not reached. To set up their programs, Advertisers must be creative in how they advertise their products or services, in the form of banners, text links, or product links. We recommend that Advertisers have a dedicated person or resource to manage their programs for the best results.

Partner Affiliates may create a tyBit account and become an Affiliate at no cost and begin earning commissions immediately. Partner Affiliates are Partners with less than 500,000 end-users, visitors or subscribers. Fully qualified Partner Publishers with over 500,000 end-users must contact a tyBit representative because of the private label and/or co-branding aspect. All Partners must regularly generate activity within the network (within six months) in order to maintain an active account that tyBit supports. Partners must have a valid email account to complete their applications. As a Partner, Publisher and/or Affiliate, you can monitor your transactions in the tyBit Partner or Affiliate module. For the best results, you need to have steady traffic to your Web site, and you need to deselect irrelevant ads and only allow ones that are best suited to your site and your audience.

Partners, Publishers and Affiliates need to be able to copy and paste HTML code and place it accurately within the code of a Web page or within an email.

tyBit supports multiple action types. An action can be a sale on an Advertiser's Web site, a lead, or any other objective the Advertiser wants to accomplish through its Publishers. With a sale action, an Advertiser pays a Publisher a flat rate or percentage of the sale price when a purchase is made on the Advertiser's Web site. With a lead action, an Advertiser pays a Publisher a flat rate for each visitor the Publisher refers to the Advertiser's site that signs up for a service or fills out a form. Many Advertisers also successfully run a "hybrid" program, which is a combination of the sale and lead programs.

Advertisers can upload a large variety of ad types that are all IAB (Internet Advertising Bureau) compliant. These link types include banners (in a variety of sizes), text links, product links, and other advanced link types to include videos in the tyBit video player.

tyBit aggregates each Partner's, Publishers, or Affiliates’ total commissions earned each month from all the search and ad display transactions and issues a check for the previous month's transactions. Until a Publisher's account balance reaches the minimum payout, tyBit rolls over the previous month's earnings into the following month. Publishers may choose to receive their payments through a check in the mail or, if they are a resident of the U.S., through direct deposit to a designated bank account. There is no charge for this service.

tyBit promotes each new Advertiser to help it get started and recruit Partners, Publishers and Affiliates to its program. However, tyBit can only provide Advertisers with the tools to manage their accounts. The extent and speed of an Advertiser program's success depends on how well the program is managed, how much the Advertiser promotes and recruits for the program outside the network, and how much effort is put into learning the tyBit tools and using them regularly and effectively.

tyBit assigns unique Partner, Advertiser, AdVAR and Affiliate IDs. We know from where a tyBit search or content matching originates and which Advertiser’s ads are displayed and clicked through. We provide full and transparent reports to all participants in our network.

tyBit accepts Advertisers from almost every country, and our Advertisers can target and serve ads geographically from local to global or demographically, to certain Partners with unique demographics based on common origin such as age or race, or common interest such as education, sports, or health. Advertisers can maintain accounts in any supported currency. Partners have the option of selecting the currency in which they want to be paid. If a currency is not supported, there is a small surcharge to convert it to the desired currency.
