Affiliate Marketing and It’s Advantages

Submitted by iodinesalt
Thu, 14 Feb 2008

The concept of revenue sharing has been around for quite a while, long before the internet. But the idea of affiliate marketing has taken it to new levels, and become a staple form of advertising and bringing in business for all types of e-commerce.

Online merchants find affiliate marketing highly advantageous due to the fact that it presents little or no risk to both the merchant and the affiliate. It works base on the principle that the affiliate earns a commission based on a percentage of the sale or fixed amount, either through on-line links on the affiliate’s website, through email, blogs, RSS feeds and any other kinds of on-line communication.

Some merchants (only about 1% of affiliate marketing) use a cost-per-click remuneration system, which simply means that the affiliate earns every time an internet searcher clicks on an advertisement on their site or email. However, due to fraudsters taking advantage of this method (creating ad-ware, sending spam, or useless indexing sites) this form of remuneration is not preferred and becomes too risky for merchants to use.

Affiliate marketing also bears no cost on the merchant in the original set-up – in other words, it costs nothing to place advertising banners on affiliate sites, and there is only a cost if a lead or sale has been generated (which is advantageous for all). Merchants also get to set the parameters, and decide on the incentive schemes. Thus, it is a very inexpensive (but highly efficient way) to grow a business.

To the affiliate, it is the simplest and fastest method to make money on the Internet. An affiliate can leverage on the products and sales pitches that are already created by the merchant, and simply focus on bringing traffic to the sales page. A commission is earned once a sale is made when someone buys through the affiliate link of the affiliate.
