Advantages of Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is one of the most efficient, rapid and cost effective ways of generating revenue on the Internet for many reasons:
To start with:
You do not (usually) require any extra financial investment to start beyond your normal website set-up, hosting and advertising costs. i.e. you do not need to pay anything  for the product because you are not actually selling it, merely directing potential clients to it. You are the (pre) salesman so you get paid a commission.

Next, as an affiliate you don’t even need to use your time to write a sales page, receive the payment, develop, test, produce, store and deliver the product or services, answer enquiries, provide pre or after sales support - all this is handled by the merchant. So you get paid just for sending traffic to the vendor.

Affiliate marketing is also brilliant from the merchants’ point of view as they can get massive numbers of affiliates to promote their products and drive traffic to their websites sales pages for free without needing to pay anything unless the product is sold. This multiplies their products exposure, increases awareness and greatly cuts costs especially since they are able to advertise their products to clients they would never be able to target through usual channels.
