The Secrets to High Profit Websites

Affiliate marketing is when you promote another company’s website in return for a
commission. This commission can be generated in a number of ways, though the most
common is when a sale or lead is actually made from your advertising methods. Less
popular ways of getting commission could be based on if a company’s URL has received
a click, or if their ads received impressions, (which are simply the number of times an ad
has been viewed). Either way, promotional methods would be the same regardless of
how commission is generated. This means you would either advertise the URL directly
or use the URL within a banner. In both cases the URL would contain special coding that
would trace back to your affiliate account. This is done so you can be properly credited if
your visitors take the actions that a company desires.
