Entertainment hobbyist site NextPlanetOver.com signed
partnership deals with RocketCash and LinkShare Corp. designed to increase the
site’s visibility.
NextPlanetOver.com’s deal with RocketCash, which enables teens without credit
cards to shop on the Internet, will allow NextPlanetOver.com to draw teens to
the site by offering them the chance to purchase NextPlanetOver.com products
through their RocketCash accounts.
“Teens represent a huge target for us because they are some of the more
aggressive entertainment hobbyists,” COO David Reid said. “They make a
natural audience for many of the products, including comic books and graphic
novels, that we offer on our site.”
Through affiliate marketing company LinkShare, NextPlanetOver.com will be
able to offer specialized fan sites the ability to display customized
NextPlanetOver.com storefronts and receive a commission for every product
they sell.
Financial arrangements were not disclosed.
NextPlanetOver.com offers original articles and online forums, and sells a
range of comic books, games, action figures and other popular entertainment
products.
In addition,
NextPlanetOver.com has partnered with Stan Lee Media to operate the official
online storefront at StanLee.net.
