By creating your own affiliate marketing network you can
increase your internet presence, resulting in increased
sales while paying for performance based advertising.
Traditional advertising is not cheap and you pay for the
ads regardless of the outcome. If you receive no sales
or sales leads from your advertising, the money is wasted.

Affiliate marketing allows you to have your ads
potentially placed on thousands of other sites and you do
not have to pay anything for them unless they return
results. Best of all, you have the option to choose which
sites display your ads and the types of ads that are used.
Tracking information is built into the links so you can
tell how many impressions your ads are getting, how often
the ads are being clicked on and how much sales are being
generated by the ads.

Whether you run your own affiliate program or sign up with
an affiliate market corporation to run it for you, the
choice of which websites to use as affiliates is still up
to you. You may want to review sites that request to
affiliate with you to determine if it is the type of site
with which you want your name affiliated. You can also
determine the pay structure. If affiliates believe your
commission structure is too low they do not have to sign
up with you. Of course, if it not worth their time and
effort to add your links to their page, you will have no
affiliates working with you.

Another hidden advantage to using affiliate marketing is
the increase in the number of links that point to your
website. Many search engines use that information as part
of the logarithm in determining your position in their
rankings. The more quality links that point to your site,
the more that score is worth. Of course, not all links back
to you will be viable and if a search engine believes you
are getting links just for the sake of having links, it
can also hurt your position in the rankings.

Primarily you can choose to pay for visits to your site,
or for visits that result in a referral or a straight
commission percentage on any and all sales. You also can
determine at what earning level the commission will be paid
to keep from having to send out commission checks for
miniscule amounts. Typically, earnings must hit at least a
certain threshold of $25 for instance, before being paid.

Running your own affiliate marketing network keeps the rest
of the profits at home, but having another company operate
it can free your staff’s time to concentrate on customer
service as well as following up on referrals you may receive
through the affiliate marketing program.
