What is Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is a modern variation of the practice of paying finder's-fees to individuals who introduce new clients to a business.

It is a method of promoting a web site, in which an affiliate is rewarded for every visitor, subscriber and/or customer provided through his efforts. It is basically revenue sharing between two web sites where the affiliate site normally provides free advertising for an ecommerce site and is being compensated based on performance, such as sales, clicks, registrations, or a combination of all.

We can help you build and manage a successful affiliate marketing program to generate additional traffic on your web site and increase your sales dramatically.
