What is an Affiliate program? |
| |
An Affiliate program is a form of advertising, on the Web, where companies use special marketing programs to reward Affiliates (typically consumers or small businesses), for driving traffic or business to their Web site. Affiliate Programs allow Affiliates to place links to, products, categories or special promotions on their site to encourage site visitors to buy merchandise. Each time a visitor clicks on a text or banner link and purchases merchandise, an Affiliate earns money!
