Affiliate Marketing Networks You Need To Join
Fewer efforts, better payouts!
Hi there! Welcome to a new blog post.
Today I'll be showing you one of the easiest ways to earn passive income by joining affiliate networks and marketing programs. If you're a blogger, online business owner, or content creator this might interest you!
WHAT is Affiliate Marketing?
Well, is one of the best and easiest way to make money while blogging, by promoting products and services for other companies using a unique link, then when someone purchases the service or product you're promoting you will get a cut from de sale.
This is a good way to optimize your time and earn passive income while you sleep, or work on another project!
HOW does it work?
Write about a product or service that you want to share with your audience in a compelling way or that shows why you recommend it. And if someone purchases it, you'll gain a percentage of the sale, the amount will depend on which affiliate program you're using.
There are two main types of affiliate marketing opportunities.
Affiliate programs: These are offered by an individual company or product/ service creator.
Affiliate networks: These are third-party companies that work with multiple companies that have affiliate programs.
HOW and WHERE do I find which affiliate programs to join?
Find affiliate programs that match your brand and your audience and make a list of reputable affiliate programs that offer a good commission.
Once you sign up, you will be given a unique affiliate link. Once you share it with your audience it will be able to track your stats and your sales. You can promote your affiliate links every time you mention that product or service on your social media or blog.

This is slightly different than most affiliate programs, Viglink has connections with thousands of brands and will automatically add affiliate links to your posts if you mention a product or brand that Viglink has a connection with.
This eliminates the need to join multiple affiliate programs and also makes affiliate marketing easy, in my opinion, this is a great starting affiliate program for beginners.

This affiliate program is open to anyone and the commissions are significantly higher than most other programs. Builderall is web software that truly has it all.

Another program very similar is Shop Style Collective it allows you access to a ton of stores. You will earn 70% of a sale while they take the remaining 30%. You can search for products or stores and they will show an estimated commission amount that you will earn with each sale.
All of the programs that I mentioned above have their unique pros and cons but you're the only one that can choose which program(s) will work best for you, your content and your earning goals.
By this time, you must be wondering, how many affiliate programs/affiliate networks should you join?
The truth is there isn't a perfect number. My advice is that you join as many affiliate programs as you can within your niche. That is the only way to know which of those programs resounds better to your audience.
Have you applied to any of these programs yet?
I hope this guide was helpful to you! and I encourage you to join a few of them, it will change your blogging journey
