What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is the process of earning a commission by promoting other people’s or company’s products. You find a product you like, promote it to others and earn a piece of the profit for each sale that you make.

 It is a simple method where you sell others product or services and earn a some commission for it. This is as simple as this and the whole process as to how you get into it is also simple.
  • Big companies such as HP, Apple and Microsoft simply go to certain affiliate marketing providers and provide them with their ads about their products and then pay them for it.
  • You go to the people (who are the middle men) and get the products which may be available in the form of Banner advertising or text links and so on.
  • Then you place them on some relevant posts or places on your website or blog.
  • You’re done.
Now when the people would read your post or visit your website then its quite obvious that they see your ads and click on it. And if they buy it then you earn a commission on it. This is the process and the term called affiliate marketing (the term that may be sounding confusing to you)

In short words you affiliate yourself with a certain product and work for it to get it sold. You can also use other ways such as Facebook or Twitter to promote it but I don’t recommend it. You can use them to promote your website with the product and get it sold.
