I logged into Commission Junction today to see this:
The timing of this is pretty curious, if you ask me. Right on the heels of Google Affiliate Network and their declaring that they’re 86’ing the referrals. So what’s up now Calacanis – SEO still bullshit?

Well no one can fault them for a timely announcement…I wasn't aware that this was a service. They definitely make it sound new & shiny.
“CJ Search” has been an offering since I was there in 2004. We had a program at Be Free in '03 that turned into CJ Search when the companies merged.
Back then it was primarily PPC management. I don't know when they rounded out the offering to include paid inclusion and SEO.
Just the same, the announcement is certainly timely.
SEO is even more bullshit now than when Jason said that because of video, Twitter, RSS, FriendFeed, etc adoption.
The CJ thing is to round out their services for merchants and provide a PPC solution, which networks have to have to compete (especially now with GAN).
Pretty interesting how things have changed in the last few years in the aff network space!
Long live SEO!
