Internet Business - What is Affiliate Partner Program?

What is Affiliate Partner Program?

 

 Internet Business

Studying and Deciding..


I read a lot of articles regarding this program. And I am quite hesitant to try it for some reason.

I've been blogging some products and services yet I don't get that much in return particularly when it comes to monetization of my blog.

So, I decided to do some research about Affiliated Program. And give it a shot.

How does Affiliated Program work?

Commonly known as an associate program. Which I'm having right now,  as an Amazon Associate.

To keep it simple, it is a relationship in which a merchant pays you as the affiliate for your links to his site. The affiliate is paid only with certain percentage whatever the amount is when an actual sale is made by the merchant as a result of your link.

Now you know


Example = A site visitor saw the affiliate ads on your blog, the customer was interested in the new iPhone X  currently advertised (for example). Then the customer clicks the ad. It will be redirected to the merchant's website showing the new iPhone X, with specs and all. If the customer decided to purchase it and proceed to check out. Automatically, the Affiliate will earn a commision from it. However, it depends on how much would be the percentage. That's it. Bang for your buck.


Earning revenue from the ads on my blog is very helpful. It's a passive income for me.
But it would be better if I can do affiliate partnership as well.

So I decided to get in partnership with the biggest and leading platform for E-Commerce in the Middle East covering UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt.
