Affiliate programs

Affiliate programs are an advertiser's way of generating revenue through the use of other companies/people. We will use ClickBank for example, when an e-book is submitted to ClickBank it is submitted with a sales page and an affiliate program. The affiliate programme will offer the opportunity for others to sell the product and in return a percentage of the sale price is given to the affiliate. If you take this book for example if you were to submit it to ClickBank and offer a 49% commission to all affiliates who sold it, affiliates would sign up to the ClickBank affiliate program and find this book in the lists of e-books and a hyperlink would be issued with a personalized ClickBank ID integrated inside the link. Place the personalized link on a website, in e-books or generally anywhere that the advertiser would think that will generate traffic. The personalized link will direct the customer to the sales page of this e-book. If they read it and buy the e-book you will receive 51% commission. So if 1000 people sell your e-book for you that's $25.50 x 1000 = $25,500 which is quite a nice little earner for writing an e-book.

Joining affiliate programs on Clickbank and promoting other peoples e-books is even easier than writing your own e-book. Being an affiliate is easy money for very little work it is that simple. Can you now imagine how much money you would have made if you were an advertising affiliate of this e-book? 49% commission earned from every sale, say you sell 1000 that's $24.50 x 1000 = $24,500 for only advertising and selling one guys e-book "WOW" now can you see the importance of affiliates in Internet Marketing. Here is a list of some of the top affiliate program companies. Please take some time to join and browse as these affiliate companies have thousands of affiliate partners. I think you


will be quite amazed at which companies you can actually be related to:

www.cj.com/home.jsp Commission Junction has some of the best affiliate programs available. http://clickbank.com As mentioned above, ClickBank offers commission on all types of e-books from independent Authors.

www.tradedoubler.com/pan/public Tradedoubler is very similar to commission junction in most respects

www.affiliatefuture.co.uk Affiliate future in my opinion is not as good as the other three but it still has a lot to offer.

http://www.linkshare.com some excellent companies to choose from here

These are but a few of the affiliate companies out there, you can also become affiliates of stand alone companies for example 888.com have an excellent affiliate program 1 and 1 internet hosting also have a good program. No matter which companies/programs you join you will always make money from affiliates and your revenue will always grow.

If you were to write an e-book about hair loss for example then in the e-book you may want to place a resources page somewhere in the contents. On this resources page place your affiliate advertiser's link, which you acquired from Commission Junction, affiliate future, ClickBank and so on. Then as discussed earlier sell your book with resale rights and wait for the commission to come in! It's that simple. Take advantage of all the ways you can use affiliates and it will pay off.
