Affiliate programs are very popular way how to earn money online these days. But how do affiliate programs work? These are simply pay per sale programs which allow the affiliate (owner of affiliate website which promote merchant’s products) to make money (commission) every time when the customer find the merchant product and buy it through affiliate website. Many merchants prefer affiliate programs because this kind of promotion is cheaper and it is 100% effective because they pay commission only for sold product.
New relationship
Affiliate programs are very popular way of promotion and there are huge amount of affiliate websites. That means huge and still growing competition between affiliates what leads to lower commission earnings for each affiliate owner. Attract potential customer is still harder. To become successful affiliate these days means working much more than in the past. The classic relationship between affiliate and potential customer based on the sell-buy process simply not work that well as it used to. Customers are changing they are more demanding and less perceptive. The online advertising is pushing from everywhere people are just disgusted and simply not react. Therefore the relationship between affiliate and potential customer should change. Rather than pressure selling affiliate should focus on recommending. Instead of creating “another affiliate website”, try to create website which is focus on reviewing products from your personal point of view. You should tell your referrals how the product helped you, how it really works and what the main advantages are. Be honest and don’t push. At the end of the review put simple link to the merchant web. If your review will be credible the referral will be tend to buy the products. This is what a lot of affiliates still don’t understand, they just want to sell products actually this attitude just discourages people from buying.
