Kris Jones emailed us this week to let us know that PepperJam is launching Pepperjam Network today, a new affiliate network which the company has been working on for almost 8 years. Being affiliate managers themselves, Pepperjam has applied affiliate best practices to their network along with a wishlist of applications which include ease of reporting and transparent communications with the Pepperjam team for publishers and affiliates.

They already have some major brands under their network, especially that of fashion designers like Rocawear and different t-shirt companies. One of their major affiliates which stands out the most in the search marketing world is SEOmoz, which is using Pepperjam Networks to promote its SEOmoz Premium program.
Pepperjam Network is also open for new merchants, so if you manage an affiliate marketing program for your client, consider Pepperjam Network to market your product.
