They are ready to give a significant part of the price to somebody who directs customers to them. In case of products, the affiliate gets paid once – just after the customer makes the transaction. But sometimes the product is a subscription or a membership program, and usually in such cases the affiliate earns a steady percentage of the subscription fee for as long as the customer keeps paying. This way a couple of dollars invested in advertising can yield a steady income that is several times larger than the money spend on that advertisement. This is a very profitable business, with profits reaching several hundred percent, and, what is very important, this method works very fast. Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2007 8:49 pm
