Hi everybody,
I'm not sure if this is the right section to ask a question like this, so apologies if it's not.
Anyway, I am about to launch my first product.
I have done lots of affiliate stuff before, as well as ppc so I can get over most of the barrier to entry humps, and everything is ready to go at this point.
The problem that I am having is getting really good information about what kind of backend to use for my system.
Right now I am looking at Amember and Butterfly Marketing, but I would just as soon go with Joomla. haha
What I need the backend to do is relatively simple. It must:
The main thing is that it will be a subscription service, where people will get something every month, and I'm going to offer a monthly recurring commision for affiliates, so that, and the upsell process should be as smooth and automated as possible.
I know that there are people here who have gone through their own product launches before, so if anyone could make some recommendations for me or give me some suggestions, that would be great.

What I need the backend to do is relatively simple. It must:
- have the initial page be a squeeze page where traffic can opt in to get something for free
- After opting in it should present them with their free download, as well as some long copy and video for my one time offer
- It needs to track affiliate ID's so that my affiliates get paid for any referrals they send
- Should have a members area that includes a forum or even a simple bbs
- Needs different levels of membership (i.e. those who only opted in, and those who bought, with the ability to do different mail campaigns to different user groups)
- Should be as easy to install and run as possible, because I didn't get into this racket because I like working hard.
