Imagine you’re in a website that is selling products, but you still have some doubts on the product. You’ll obviously be looking for a contact information to ask the question.

As an affiliate webmaster, providing an onsite contact information helps you a lot, as many are forcing users to get out of the website to find the answers they’re looking for. So you’re driving traffic AWAY from the website!

One thing I hear a lot is that some people think that it drives a lot of spam. Sure you may get some, but if a real user actually takes the time to email you a question, that means that they are interested in some products on your website. Answer fast and with all the info they want and you just got yourself a sale!

To avoid the spam problem, you can always use a form instead of an e-mail link and that way all those unwanted e-mails will be reduced: a lot!
