Skimbit

Skimbit is a London-based company started in 2006. Their key product is Skimlinks, a simplified affiliate marketing tool for publishers.

Skimbit has a range of products. They initially launched with social decision-making tool Skimbit.com, and then the white-labelled version of this service Skim-in-a-box. They developed an innovative business model and technology for monetising user-generated content using affiliate marketing.

In 2008, Skimbit commercialised this technology and launched it as Skimlinks. It helps blogs, forums, and content sites the ability to earn revenue from affiliate marketing with no technical or admin effort. Skimlinks turns links on content sites into their affiliate marketing link equivalents on-the-fly, so publishers can focus on creating qualtiy content rather than creating and maintaining affiliate links.

Skimlinks is integrated with over 10 international affiliate networks, and has thousands of merchants in its system.

In 2009, Skimlinks won Best New Entrant, Best Use of Technology in Affiliate Marketing and Innovative Affiliate of the Year at the A4U Awards, and is shortlisted in the NMA Awards and The LinkShare Golden Link Awards, while CEO Alicia Navarro is up for Entrepreneur of the Year at the National Business Awards.
