Member Q2. What is QMTP?

QMTP is a web-based communication system which is spam and virus free! It provides a quick way for subscribers (or friends and family members) to leave a brief private note to a channel publisher or to any Quikonnex member. By simply clicking on your special QMTP link, anyone can send you a private message.

Both publishers and members can also view and manage their messages securely from our QuikView channel viewer. Publishers can also view and manage their QMTP messages on a channel-by-channel basis through their Quikonnex Channel Manager. Either method is secure and password-protected.

Member Q3. Why do you have an Affiliate program?

This technology is new, has been referred to as "disruptive" and we felt it important to provide a healthy "thank you" to all our members who spread the word about Quikonnex. Our affiliate program pays 20% on referrals that become Publishing Members.

Member Q4. Who can participate the Affiliate program?

All Quikonnex Publishers and free members are automatically set up in the system to take advantage of our affiliate program. Each is issued an affiliate ID number at sign up. If you can receive money from PayPal, then you are welcome to participate in the Quikonnex affiliate program.

We use PayPal exclusively as the means to pay our affiliates their commissions. When commissions earned are $25.00 or greater, Quikonnex will send you your earnings via PayPal monthly.

Member Q5. How does the Affiliate program work?

It's Easy!  Find a publisher whose content you like and add your affiliate ID to their subscriber page URL and that's it. You will probably want to use your favorite publisher's subscribe page URL, but you could choose any Q Channel subscriber page URL. If you prefer, you can also use the URL for this special Quikonnex channel you are currently viewing, or use the URL for Qsearch, our powerful, media-rich search engine.

For example, a subscriber page with a URL of
"http://quikonnex.com/channel/subscribe/quikonnex/123"
will allow the affiliate with the ID# 123 to receive the referral fee for any Publishing Member that joins from that page. Member/Publishers can also recommend other publishers and receive credit for those referrals.

As a member, you will have access to the affiliate section of the forum, where you can gather or share marketing ideas, and even venture with other publishers or members. You will also have access to the Affiliates area, where you can construct your own ad campaigns, and track them to determine which are the most effective. You will also be able to monitor your earnings in this area.

It's a real WIN-WIN opportunity.

Member Q6. How are affiliate sales tracked?

Your affiliate ID is a number that is assigned to you automatically by our computer system. You can see this number when you access the affiliate link in the member's area. That is the number which you will append to any Quikonnex URL which you share.

Visitors to Channel Pages, Subscriber Pages or other advertising pages provided by Quikonnex are tracked via a special cookie that is placed on their computer. When that visitor joins Quikonnex as either a publisher or a member, that cookie is read and identifies the referring affiliate. The publisher or member is then credited with the sale and/or new referral.

Member Q7. How do I advertise Quikonnex?

Quikonnex highly recommends that publishers and members promote their own personal/business websites. Placing a subscribe link on your own website (or a list of recommend channels) is the best way to advertise your channel.

Frame in the channel page on your website as well so visitors can see your articles. This way your website will receive traffic and Quikonnex can help you manage the content of your website. Creating great content will provide you with new subscribers and referrals.

Under no circumstances should you send out unsolicited email (SPAM) referring to the Quikonnex.com domain. Quikonnex does not use email and has ZERO tolerance for anyone utilizing spamming techniques to promote a product or service.

Member Q8. What goes on at the online Publishers Workshops?

The Qheads, Carolyn and Jim, the founders of Quikonnex, demonstrate new and enhanced features of the service, take questions and make announcements about forthcoming upgrades. Any member is eligible to become a co-publisher on any Q Channel, at the discretion of that channel's publisher. Publishers, co-publishers and potential publishers all attend these meetings to learn and to share ideas and information about how to maximize the use of their channels to build their business.

All our members have an open invitation to attend these meetings, where they can meet the founders, other publishers and get a greater sense of the Quikonnex community. These meetings are invaluable for those who are considering upgrading their membership to full publisher status.

Member Q9. Can I upgrade my membership to a Full Publishing Member?

Absolutely!  It takes some folks a little while longer to realize how easy it is to become a publisher. You might want to subscribe to some of the other publishers to read and/or promote their channels just to see how it works. But, if you have any writing ability and information or knowledge you need to share with others, you will very soon realize that publishing your own Q Channel is the smart thing to do.

Perhaps you will see channels as a way to just keep-in-touch, network, even request information ... the interactivity of Quikonnex channels truly takes all the limits off traditional Internet communication. You are welcome to attend any of our online Publishers Workshops to learn more about the service. Ask questions, think it over, and when you're ready to start publishing your own Q Channel, we'll be right here!

Member Q10. If I cancel my Publishers Membership, can I still be a free member?

Sure, canceling your Publishers Membership will only cause the deletion of your Q Channels, and access to the Channel Manager and Publishing Members Forum.

You will retain your QMTP system, QuikView, access to the members area and forum and participation in the affiliate program. Your affiliate information will not be deleted unless you request it, nor will you lose any referrals as a result.
