What Are Affiliate Networks
Affiliate networks are common throughout the net. It’s where merchants offer their products or services to be sold by someone else. Hopefully you! They will pay you a percentage or flat fee for your efforts based on pay per sale, pay per lead (subscriber) and pay per click. Becasue they are affiliate NETWORKS there’s a lot of merchants offering their stuff for you to pick from.
An easy way to earn some additional cash is to find merchants offering products or services related to you website or interest catagory, look for merchants that pay per lead an offer an incentive to the subscriber. This way you’ll cash in without asking your visitors or members for any money. In fact, they’ll be getting something for free and you’ll get paid.
There are also networks specialzied in delivering digital goods like software and ebooks or maybe an internet service of some kind. When you would like to sell digital goods you’ll find that ClickBank is the most known and probably around the longest. The downside on clickbank however, is that you’re able to purchase through your own affiliate link, which many people do for obvious reasons…save money on their purchase. To overcome that issue you could offer a bonus for ordering through your CB affiliate link. The better the bonus, the more likely people will exsually buy through your affilate link.
