As the name suggests, the Homegrown Cash v2 adult affiliate program is all about amateur content, arguably the best in the niche. When it comes to amateur content, the Homegrown Cash v2 sites appear to be the real deal with exclusive honest-to-goodness user submitted pics and videos, and not the so called amateur and ex-girlfriend style content you will find on most other supposedly amateur sites. Granted, some of that content appears to come from producers who scout amateur models and amateurs promoting their own sites, but the added diversity should only add to the user experience.

Summary
Affiliates should take note of the ‘v2′ – apparently Homegrown Cash has migrated to NATS 4.1, and in doing so has effectively created a second affiliate program. None of the sites or content included in this review can be found in the original programs webmasters area, though a pair of niche sites and their corresponding promotional tools have not yet made the transition to the revised program. It is unclear if those sites will continue to update or even track visitors and sales – if so, then a separate affiliate program review may be warranted since affiliate logins do not appear to be shared.
While the Homegrown Cash v2 sites are very nice, some affiliates may be disappointed in the quantity of promotional tools. At present there are only thirteen galleries in total, and all of those are photo galleries belonging to the same site. However, there are considerably more promotional videos available in downloadable, embedded, and hosted formats, though affiliates should note that many of those videos appear to be professional and not amateur submitted content. Affiliates should also note that while RSS feeds are available, they are of the type to quickly grab the latest promotional tools and not suitable for importing directly into a blog or publicly displaying in a site widget. Potential and existing affiliates should be pleased to know that the Homegrown Cash v2 sites do not appear to employ any of the indexing tricks that some other adult affiliate programs use to give their own pages indexing advantages over those of their affiliates. The most common of which are affiliate pages that contain noindex meta tags or canonical links pointing to versions of the same page without affiliate IDs, effectively telling the search engines that those pages without the IDs is the preferred page to index, or robots.txt files that are often used for the same purpose.
While Homegrown Cash v2 has some very nice sites and content in the amateur niches, the paucity of galleries may make this adult affiliate program ill suited for those affiliates who primarily use galleries in their promotional efforts. Affiliates who primarily use hosted, embedded, or downloaded videos, however, will have much more content with which to promote this program.
