The premise is simple: reward sites that help to generate sales for your
business. An affiliate program works much like a salesperson at a department
store - affiliates direct people to your site through a specially-coded link
and get commission on any sales they helped to create.
How Affiliate Programs Work:
- Choose an affiliate provider or providers (such as
Commission Junction®, Link Share® or ClickBank®) to help you set-up and
launch your program.
- Affiliates (also known as publishers) will sign up
for your affiliate program through your affiliate provider, who will
manage your affiliates with unique tracking URLs.
- When an affiliate puts a link or advertisement on
their site, it will use the tracking URL that they receive from the
affiliate provider. Visitors that click on that link or advertisement
are then tracked by your affiliate provider.
- Each purchase on your reseller storefront will also
use a tracking URL on the confirmation page that will allow your
affiliate provider to track which publisher should be credited with
creating the sale.
- Through your provider, you'll pay a commission to the
affiliate publisher who helped initiate these sales.
