BlueHost is a reliable hosting company which has been around for quite long. They have live chat support. (FREE Pay Per Click Advertising Credits + 1 FREE Domain)
Hostgator is a reliable hosting company which has been around for quite awhile. They also have live chat support. (1Cent For First Month – Coupon Code: jury)
Note: Sign up for web hosting plans with unlimited addon domains, unlimited MySQL & cpanel. I no longer use them because I have moved on to VPS (virtual private server) hosting.
Web Development

FTP Tools
FileZilla is a free FTP software that sits on your desktop.
FireFTP is a free FTP software that works with FireFox.
Affiliate Networks
ClickBank is by far, my personal favorite affiliate network. Over the years, they kept improving, now they even provide weekly payments & direct deposit to many countries.
PayDotCom used to load really slow, lately it has improved. It is still worth your time to take a look at it.
NeverBlue Ads is my favorite CPA network, they have really good offers & a neat interface. They have helpful affiliate managers as well.
COPEAC is a CPA network with really good offers. Their affiliate managers are always willing to help you whenever you ask.
Commission Junction is one the biggest affiliate network with the most offers. However, affiliate managers are not as helpful as those in CPA networks.
Pepper Jam is a very interesting affiliate network with good offers & helpful staff. They truly understand what an affiliate really want.
Market Health is an affiliate network with health related offers. Many times, they have better offers than many CPA networks.
PPC Networks
Google AdWords
Yahoo Search Marketing
MSN AdCenter
Email System
AWeber has the best email delivery rate, the best-looking interface, the best functions, most important of all, they have very helpful support staff. They are constantly improving to serve us better.
PDF (Adobe)
Primo PDF is a free software that converts from Word documents into PDF.
Easy PDF is an inexpensive software that converts from Word documents into PDF.
Office Software
Open Office is a free version of Microsoft Office & it works as well as the paid version.
Payment
PayPal helps you to receive & send payments quickly & easily.
Research
Google Search-Based Keyword Tool is where you get ideas for keywords.
Google Keyword Tool is where you can find keywords for your PPC campaigns.
Google Traffic Estimator is where you get quick traffic & cost estimates for keywords.
KeyWordSpy is where you can spy on keywords & ads from your competitors.
KeyCompete is similar to KeyWordSpy, it has lesser keywords & it cost less.
QuantCast is where you can find some demographics information.
Alexa is where you can find related websites in your market.
Tracking Tools
Google Analytics is one the best tools for tracking your traffic, especially for organic traffic. Long ago, it used to cost about $5,000 per license, Google bought the company & gave it away for free.
Prosper 202 is hands-down the best tracking tool for PPC marketing! I still find it hard to believe that such a solid tool is free. The support forum is extremely helpful & responsive.
AdTrackz may look like simple but it can do more than you think! If you are tracking other forms of paid traffic, (other than PPC), this will work well for you. This merchant that I recommend is really helpful, he even provides one free installation.
ClickBank Tools
CB Engine is a solid tool for affiliates to track ClickBank product sales and performance history for products listed in the ClickBank MarketPlace.
CB List Automator automatically sends a bonus to your buyer when they buy through your affiliate link. This will get you more sales & save you a lot of time.
EasyClickMate is a must have tool if you are selling your own products on ClickBank. Many affiliates would love you for using it!
EasyClickGuard protects your product downloads & it integrates seamlessly with EasyClickMate. Can be used for PayPal too.
EasyClickCombo is a package deal for EasyClickMate & EasyClickGuard. This package gives you much better value for your money.
