Whether you’re a student, between jobs or just looking to make a little extra money on the side, affiliate programs are a great way to earn some easy money without having to leave the comfort of your home. In this article we’ll explain how you can earn money online by joining an affiliate program.

Affiliate marketing allows you to partner with a brand and earn money by promoting their product (or service) online. After you sign up, most companies will give you a special link – called a unique affiliate link – that you can share. When someone clicks on your link and/or purchases the product, you will earn a commission

The main benefit of joining an affiliate marketing program is being able to earn money passively. Most affiliates do not need to dedicate a significant amount of time to promoting the product, and are able to earn commission after simply sharing information about a product or service with their followers, friends or family. 

Most affiliate programs, including ours, are completely free to join. That makes affiliate marketing programs a low-risk, potentially high-reward side jobs.

Anyone can become an affiliate, but certain brands or companies may have more specific requirements.

If you use social media, author a blog or run a website you’re already set-up to reap the benefits of affiliate marketing. It’s up to you to research which brands or products/services would fit well with your other content to find the best affiliate marketing programs for you.

However, keep in mind that there are some regulations surrounding affiliate promotion of brands, product or service – especially in certain industries. If you live in certain countries or are under 18, there may be some additional restrictions. Research these rules before you dive head first into a new side job.

Each affiliate program handles different rates. Typical affiliate programs offer commission ranging from 5% to 40% per sale. Here at Phen.com, we pay affiliates 40% commission on all sales, which translates to about $19 in earnings per bottle sold.

It is important to look for affiliate programs that offer quality products or services that are of some interest to you, your audience, friends or family. After you sign-up for one or more affiliate marketing programs, you can begin promoting the product or service on your social networks, blog or website. Affiliate programs usually offer pre-made advertising material such as banners and photos for social media.
