Expand Your Business With Affiliate Marketing

If you want to sell your product more efficiently, affiliate marketing is another good option to choose. By using this method, your product could be sold more efficiently as other e-retailer will do the work for you. They will receive payment based on the rate that appointed upon the agreement for every product sold.

Starting Affiliate Marketing

You could register under affiliate networks like Commission Junction, Sharesale or Link Share. They will handle the tracking and money - and charge you a healthy percentage. Those companies charge a few thousand dollars to get your affiliate program established. However, there are smaller affiliate network to hire and they cost you less. Remember to choose wisely.

But you could start the affiliate program without the affiliate network with installing the affiliate tracking software under your server. You can buy a CGI tracking script - or you can start an affiliate program by writing your own script. If those two options aren’t applicable to you, you use a web-based affiliate tracking systems. They will charge you monthly.
