How do you set up affiliate marketing for a website?

I've been an affiliate, an affiliate manager (certified, won industry awards etc), and now run an agency that also does affiliate program management for companies (among other things).

There are many great options out there for companies just starting out in the affiliate space. I'd recommend starting with an affiliate network such as Commission Junction, ShareaSale, Impact Radius or Linkshare. Each network has its own strengths and weaknesses, but all of the major and trusted networks do a good job of vetting affiliates, allowing you to refresh creatives often, and track activities and performance without too many headaches.

After picking the network and having the program set up, you'll want to have a good and knowladgeable affiliate manager to handle the program, provide new ideas for creatives, keep track of stats, recruit potential affiliates, and monitor those in your program for fraud etc. It's a rather demanding job, so many companies contract out with agencies such as ours as "OPM's" or Outsourced Program Managers to take care of all the details and provide a steady stream of income.

Let me know if you need any further help, insight, or program management!

I would do a cost-benefit analysis to determine whether to build or buy. If affiliate marketing is part of your core competencies and you need specific customization, then it may be worth the cost to build. If not, there are great programs out there that will allow you to run your affiliate marketing programs.

Affiliate marketing is simply a way to earn money from another company or individual by promoting their products or services online. Making money while you sleep is the dream for most digital marketers. Affiliate marketing is considered passive because you can theoretically earn money just by adding an affiliate link to your site. Affiliate marketing is popular among digital marketers since it is a straightforward way to earn some additional income without having to shell out any money in advance. It requires a concerted effort in pushing products and services through all possible online mediums. By investing your time in the right affiliate marketing strategies, you will gradually accumulate streams of passive income. Each time a sale is made, the merchant and the publisher each receive a share of revenue according to their contribution.
