Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate Marketing is a
popular method of
promoting web businesses
in which an affiliate is
rewarded for every
visitor, subscriber
and/or customer provided
through his efforts. It
is a modern variation of
the practice of paying
finder's-fees for the
introduction of new
clients to a business.
Compensation may be made
based on a certain value
for each visit (Pay per
click), registrant (Pay
per lead), or a
commission for each
customer or sale (Pay
per Sale), or any
combination.
The most attractive
aspect of affiliate
marketing, from the
merchant's viewpoint, is
that with this pay for
performance model, no
payment is due to an
affiliate until results
are realized.
