I can find no evidence to support this statement, on the contrary, the fashion sector is a growth market. Example, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.truffleshuffle.co.uk\">TruffleShuffle.co.uk<\/a> continues to climb, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lovehoney.co.uk\/lingerie\/sexy-lingerie\/\">LoveHoney.co.uk lingerie<\/a>, continues to climb, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yukka.co.uk\/\">Yukka.co.uk<\/a> continues to climb, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asos.com\">ASOS.com<\/a> consistently they have year on year growth.<\/p>\n<p>For the record and any dooms day prophet out there, the economic down turn will not affect the fashion sector so badly, how do I know&#8230; History shows us this. Dedicated followers of fashion will always have money to spend on clothes and music. In some ways it\u2019s a religion a cultural uniform if you like that defines who we are, which fashion group (youth tribe) we belong to and who we aspire to be like and all spurred on by the media and our peers. We will <strong>ALWAYS<\/strong> have money for those jeans, t-shirts, brands and such like, history and stats show us this. No war ever halted the evolution of fashion and no economic crunch will either. <\/p>\n<p> <u style=\"display:none\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.damnshow.com\/?breakfast_at_tiffany_s\">Breakfast at Tiffany&#8217;s release<\/a><\/u> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boohoo.com\">Boohoo.com<\/a> has seen a surge in overall business growth since it launched its affiliate program in January 2009 and whilst AffiliateProgramAdvice.com would like to take full credit and coo from the top of the dot.com tree we know its all about the relationships, logistics, margins and we all have our parts to play in the one common goal which is to increase new customer acquisitions, customer retention bottom line to make money. <\/p>\n<p><form style=\"display:none\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mettsalat.de\/?the_recruit\">The Recruit trailer<\/a><\/form>\n<p> We were chuffed to receive this email from Simon Booth (Marketing Manager at BooHoo.com)<br \/>\n\u201cJust so you are also aware of some of our progress since we all started working with Boohoo the site has gone from being the 33rd most trafficked clothing retailer in the UK to the 17th &#8211; according to Hitwise. Much of this is due to the extra traffic that has been pulled in from the affiliates as well as Boohoo&#8217;s increased investment in PPC and the increase in PR that is starting to be generated in key mags like More, Look etc.<\/p>\n<p> <em style=\"display:none\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jimplagakis.com\/?save_the_last_dance\">buy Save the Last Dance<\/a><\/em> In addition the affiliate campaign has helped to increase the no. of links to Boohoo and this has seen us jump to positions 1-4 for key terms on good old Google such as &#8216;womens fashion&#8217;, &#8216;women\u2019s clothes&#8217;, &#8216;party dresses&#8217; etc. (without being able to optimise the site either !)<\/p>\n<p>All of this has seen the average daily traffic to the site jump from an ave. of 18,000 uniques per day in Oct 08 to an average 33,000 per day in Jan and still growing. <\/p>\n<p>All this and we&#8217;re spending less on marketing than the company was before we started !!<br \/>\nSo once again thanks for your help\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>For sure APA and BooHoo.com still have much work to do in terms of affiliate commission claw backs, but we are working to resolve that and we will with the help of super star tech guy, Chris Lacey.<\/p>\n<p>The key to a successful affiliate program does not start with affiliate marketing. It starts with the client in terms of their own business, knowledge of product and demand, understanding their target audience, competitive pricing, website conversions, good key personnel that know what they are doing, technical know how and logistics even, once you get those metrics right, then let the marketing initiatives begin. <\/p>\n<p> <u style=\"display:none\"><a href=\"http:\/\/londongirlgeekdinners.co.uk\/?stigmata\">Stigmata dvd<\/a><\/u> The relationship between all parties, BooHoo.com, <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.affiliatewindow.com\/?p=233\">Affiliatewindow.com<\/a>, APA and of course the real stars of the show in this article, the affiliates.. are all working together, collectively and smoothly, <strong>we all listen to each other <\/strong>and accommodate where possible, now that\u2019s what I call team work!
