What are affiliate programs?


Here are a few definitions:

  • Affiliate Programs, are arrangements in which an online merchant pays affiliates a commission to send them traffic or sales.
  • A program that allows other companies, or individuals, to market a company's products or services for a commission fee per item sold.
  • Affiliate marketing is a method of promoting websites in which an affiliate is rewarded for every visitor, subscriber, customer, and/or sale provided through his/her efforts.

Basically, as an affiliate, I build a webpage, website or blog where I post links to a merchants site with whom I have an affiliate agreement with. People then come to my site and click on a link which takes them to the merchants site. If they buy something, I receive a commission.

The great thing is that I am able to sell other peoples/companies products without having to deal with the production, shipping, customer complaints or anything else associated with the product.
