| Ask Mr. D - Affiliate Programs
I see a lot of references to Affiliate Programs as a way to
boost revenues. However, I have never seen an explanation of
what an affiliate program is and how it works. I am a producer
of educational media and use my site to market my products. As I
am not getting much traffic to my site, I am wondering if an
affiliate program would help me.
I would appreciate any suggestions that you might have.
Signed,
Heron Gardner

Dear Heron,
What an affiliate program does is reward individuals (your
affiliates) for sending traffic to your site by placing a link
to you on their web-site or in their newsletter.
You then reward them by paying the affiliate a commission on
actions resulting from their link to your site. This commission
may be a percentage of the sale amount or a set dollar figure.
This is an excellent way to increase your traffic and revenues.
Imagine having hundreds, or thousands, of web-sites and
newsletters linking to your site. What could that do for your
business?
If you would like to check out some affiliate programs or
software, just go to any search engine and conduct a search for
"affiliate program" - There are a ton of them out there.
Good luck with your affiliate program.
