Benefits of Affiliate Marketing In 2021

What is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is simply registering yourself to an online affiliate network or company. In this case, you can earn money from affiliate networks on a commission basis or pay per click.

Types of Affiliate Marketing

• Commission-based: simply meaning if someone places an order from an affiliate partner’s website you earn a commission from the sale. The money you earn depends on the requirement from the affiliate partner. Affiliate partners are simply brands/ businesses that join affiliate marketing to help market their products better. A good example of this Rewardstyle.

• Pay-per clicks method: If your affiliate URL is simply clicked on you can earn money from simply sharing the URL and getting people to click on it. If you are able to convert those clicks to sales, then the more money you make! A good example of this is ShopStyleCollective.

(Note: Affiliate promotions can be in form of links, discount codes and banners).

Some examples of Affiliate Marketing programs I have used include:

1. Amazon Associates
2. ShareASale Affiliates
3. Rakuten Marketing Affiliates
4. CJ Affiliate
5. Google Adsense
6. ShopStyleCollective (*highly recommended for fashion, beauty and lifestyle content creators*)

I even created and launched my very own affiliate program for my jewelry and apparel brand – E’s Element.

E’s Element’s affiliate program is a good example of a commission based affiliate program.
