Affiliate Marketing is an entire chapter of Online Marketing.

Affilliate marketing systems consist of ads links or banner which are tracked by companies or agencies. The income is based on PPS (pay per sell) and PPC (pay per click). There are other possibilities but PPC and PPS are the most profitable.

Basically there are affiliate marketing agencies which provide affiliate marketing systems everyone can join, such as Zanox and Trade Doubler. Alternately some companies propose affiliate marketing systems anyone can join, Amazon or Ebay for example.

In addition to that there are internal affiliate marketing systems such as the one Facebook uses. Basically each Facebook member can advertise whatever he wants inside the community by clicking on the link “Advertise” and then by quickly and easily selecting some data to cross in order to define the affiliate marketing campaign: typology of people, location, keywords etc.

I used it to advertise the launch of my professional personal website and found it very expensive.

Nevertheless I’ll give it a go again to advertise my brand new social network next year.

Any question?
