What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate Marketing is a set of skills that we can use to promote other people's products and get paid a commission on the sales. We act as the middlemen in the transaction by connecting buyers and sellers, and only get paid once the transaction occurs.

For product owners, this is a great arrangement because they only pay for your work when they make a sale vs paying per click or impression.

You've seen Affiliate Marketing at work all over the internet. Pretty much every blog, social media creator, and many informational websites utilize Affiliate Marketing techniques. Think about all the products you've seen promoted or reviewed that had links to that very item? That's Affiliate Marketing at work.
