Affiliate Marketing - A Quick Overview For Beginners

It's simply a kind of marketing in the internet where marketers sell products or services of certain merchants. Those Internet Marketers earn commissions on sales. Most of the merchants even also pay them for clicks and leads to their promotional websites.

If you are looking for an extra income stream and haven't started your Affiliate Marketing journey, then you better do! Why?

Here are some reasons why...

With Affiliate Marketing,

1. You don't need your own products to sell. Your merchant does the part for you.

2. You don't have to process any payment. Your merchant will do that for you.

3. You don't have to take care of any of shipment. Your merchant will do the job for you.

4. You don't have to take care of those customers' complaints. Your merchant will also take care of it. (though, you have to be very careful in determining which merchants should be your partners. Never pick lousy ones).

Plus...

1. Most of those affiliate programs are free to join.

2. You will have your own promotional site of the product.

3. You can sell several products from several merchants.

4. With smart strategies, you can generate up to thousands of sales when you are asleep!

The most effective way for Affiliate Marketers to promote their merchants' products is through rich-content websites. Have no idea what rich-content websites are? I guess I just have to explain about them in another article...
