How To Find The Best Affiliate Porgrams?



When you get started with affiliate marketing, the question uppermost in the mind is what the best affiliate programs are and where to find them. Seasoned internet entrepreneurs as well as the newbie’s alike have the same question in mind. What and where are the best affiliate programs?

To answer this question first you need to ask yourself several other questions. The answer to these questions will determine your answer for the first question. Sorry if that got you into knots but stay on.

What are you interested in?

What subjects do you know a little something about?

Then you can try to match an affiliate program with just about any interest you may have or know something about.

We now know what the type of affiliate program to promote is. The next step is to locate such programs. So where do you look for affiliate programs to promote matching your interest.

Clickbank.com

The first place to head over to is Clickbank.com. This is the platform for merchants to promote and affiliates to sell over 10000 affiliate products. This is the preferred source of the most popular programs. They tell you the percentage you'll receive on each sale and they also put it in dollars and cents. They also reveal other stats about each program that will help you to determine if the program you chose is right for you to promote. You now also have the option of promoting some language affiliate programs apart from English

The other programs mentioned below are not necessarily in order of importance. You can sign up in these sites and start promoting various products and services.

linkshare.com

LinkShare pioneered online affiliate marketing, and today runs the largest pay for performance affiliate marketing network on the Internet. With over 10 million partnerships in the network it is the most successful pay for performance network of its kind.

Commission Junction

This is available at cj.com. Maximize your revenue opportunities by developing sustainable relationships with top-tier advertisers. Perform and get paid for every sale and lead you generate. For qualifying publishers, take your program to the next level with their industry exclusive solution for top-performers.

Then there are numerous affiliate programs directly being offered by the product or company websites which offer stand alone programs of their products or services. These are searchable by adding your subject + affiliate program. As an illustration if you are planning to sell a program on ‘how to write a business plan’ you can search for “business Plan” + affiliate program in your favorite search engine. Alternately you can search for “Affiliate Program Resources” to find out different affiliate programs on and pick a program of your choice. The information super highway can throw up whatever information you need. If you type “affiliate programs” at Google and Yahoo you will get a huge list running into millions of possible affiliate programs

You don't have to browse through all the millions of pages. The first few pages should give you a fair list of what you want to promote. Try and stick with something you've got some background in.

Now you know where to find the best programs and how to find them, you can get started on your preferred affiliate program and start making your affiliate millions.
