Perhaps, you have no prior knowledge of what affiliate marketing is all about.
According to Investopedia : ” Affiliate marketing is an advertising model in which a company compensates third-party publishers to generate traffic or leads to the company’s products and services. The third-party publishers are affiliates, and the commission fee incentivizes them to find ways to promote the company.”
In my point of view, to make the meaning of affiliate marketing simpler for you. Affiliate marketing is simply the act of connecting the buyers with the seller while you are collecting commission after each successful sale.
In this case, the goods can be physical or digital. It can also be a service, not necessarily goods.
