@kampero111 most professional affiliate tracking systems (including Amazon's Associate program) place cookies on prospect's PC, so that if your scenario happens, then the last affiliate who referred them still gets the commission. Some systems give the commission to the FIRST affiliate who made the referral. The bottom line is that smart merchants will give you the credit you deserve, so you help sell more in future. Dumb merchants will try and cheat, but they are only cheating themselves.
@Maggielove8 if you sign up as a cb affiliate then you get a link that YOU can post. They don't post the links for you. You place the links wherever it makes sense - just don't spam your links to everyone.
@Maggielove8 Hi Maggie - you place affiliate links on your own website/blog or in paid ads like pay-per-click or banner ads. To learn more about affiliate marketing you can check my site with /sah after the website domain.
Anybody with a link like that in there description is a scumbag. Period. You are not selling Oops, you are just scamming people.
Great Video Peter!
Nice explanation. Thanks.
in germany it is!
let me point out that this is not necessarily the case. You would need to be approved by the affiliate marketing company before you can start promoting the merchants products. If you don't have a website, chances are you probably won't be approved the company. so it's best to probably have a website at the very least.
ok thank you
it's like any other income - why would it be different?
is there tax income on affiliate marketing?
Hi Steve - If you want to be an affiliate you need to find vendors/merchants who have an affiliate program for their product. If they don't then suggest to them that they start an affiliate program. Merchants either have their own (private) aff. programs or you can find affiliate offers in networks like linkshare, hydra, commission junction etc. Usually the merchant has a link on their site that says "make money" or "affiliates". The links are found from within their affiliate system.
That is Affiliate Marketing in a nutshell. Thanks for simply stating it the way it is. Anything you love you can usually find a company willing to pay you a commission for promoting it.
This is a good explanation of affiliate marketing. If you don't have a website and you don't know how to build one, you can easily start with a blog on blogger. Start your own blogger, post various articles around the subject of the affiliate product and place your affiliate links your articles.
Yes you can. Wherever people can click on your affiliate link will work... if they buy or whatever has to happen for you to get paid. But just don't spam links everywhere.

hi im with a affiliate company and would like to talk to u personaly because i have serious questions i dont really ever use you tube but plz leave me a message letting me kno if we can talk thanks
The merchant who has the affiliate program will pay you in different ways. Some are check, some paypal, some both. Read the merchant affiliate program description for details. It might be 30 days or more before you are paid and there also could be a threshold before they pay you (e.g. min $100 or min 2 sales etc.) If you want to retrieve money from paypal you need to hook it up to a bank account and some countries are supported differently due to national banking systems and practices etc.
i need to know if a customer purchased an item from your affiliate link and you want to retrieve the commision amount from your paypal account. how would the process work will they send you a check in mail? will the money be sent to your bank account? and do you need a bank account to retrieve money from a sale you made through paypal?
