Before we dive into to uncovering the definition of Affiliate Marketing, I would firstly like to share with you why you should bother learning about Affiliate Marketing at all.
Why Learn About Affiliate Marketing?
-
You can make money online from home, a beach, a quaint cafe, your bed… Wherever you have a signal and can access the Internet you have the ability to make money using Affiliate Marketing.

You can either develop this income stream to supplement your main income or develop it to grow and eventually become your main source of income.

Over time, affiliate marketing has the ability to become a passive income. If you have not come across the term passive income before, this basically means that you carry out the work once, and then continue to receive payment for your efforts. (In appose to active income, the usual form of employment exchanging your precious time for money, and then… repeat). This means that affiliate marketing has the potential to enable you to make money even whilst your asleep!
So to sum up why you need affiliate marketing in your life; it gives you freedom to make money anywhere, enables you to help your readers and allows you the possibility to make money while you sleep… Pretty awesome right?!
What Is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate Marketing is where you, the affiliate, place an affiliate link on your social media account, website or blog, and earn money when people purchase a product through your link.
Essentially you are converting your readers into customers for the affiliate company that you are promoting products/ services for, and receiving a commission from that conversion.
A form of passive income, once you have created a blog post such as a review containing your affiliate links, it takes minimal work to maintain that original blog post, whilst earning money years after creating it.
I have come across bloggers who still continue to make thousands from an affiliate blog post that they had created around 5 years previously. A pretty clever investment!
Another brilliant bonus of affiliate marketing is that it is very affordable. If you want to invest your time into something that can bring you rewards, but you don’t have much spare cash for bigger investments, affiliate marketing is a great way to start!
You can begin from your social media account or purchase affordable web hosting and create your own blog platform to share your affiliate links.

Affiliate Marketing has the added benefit that you are not responsible for any order processing, dispatching etc. It is less work than creating a product yourself. Simply promote products/ services that you believe in and promote them anywhere you want!
