Join the LinkShare UK Network |

Three leading high-street retailers have joined the UK network this month |
 |
 |
 |
Leading high-street clothing retailers French Connection and Great Plains have both launched their first ever affiliate programs. Links of London, the British contemporary jeweller founded in 1990 and now a global brand, has also launched in the UK network.
They join a number of brand conscious retailers who have affiliate programs with LinkShare UK like Net-a-Porter, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, SpaceNK, Elemis and Myla. These advertisers have all shown that it is possible to build an affiliate program while protecting your brand with access to the “right” publisher partners and brand protection and monitoring tools.
The UK Network has a diverse pool of quality and relevant content sites for high-level brands.
Some examples of these are highlighted below:
