How to Make a Monthly Four Figure Income As an Affiliate Marketer
Everyday your importance as a big player in the promotion of global business continues to increase.
This is evident in the way companies or product owners are ready to reward you heavily with as much as 25% - 70% for your work.
Affiliate marketing networks though not the owners of the products they showcase, take it upon themselves to promote affiliate programs for their own benefits, after all they get a percentage of the sales value too, but not anything near what you make as an affiliate marketer.
This elevation of affiliate marketing in online business promotion has brought so much to bear on the affiliate marketer in form of heavy competition that bothers on both black hat techniques and the use of sophisticated software and money to get the best results and commissions.
This level of competitiveness in online affiliate marketing is being fueled not by product owners, merchants or affiliate programs as they are known, but by the affiliate networks who work as sales and clearing houses or go-between for both the merchants and the affiliate marketers.
The Networks are constantly exploring new markets, looking for and signing on affiliate marketers in places where this type of business was not in place a few years ago.
Examples are Asia and Africa from where an army of affiliate marketers are hitting the Internet daily.
To make themselves attractive for competitive edge, affiliate networks have minimized the cost of running their businesses and now charge very low commissions from a multitude of affiliate programs, making it possible for the affiliate programs to also pay you huge commissions.
For both the affiliate programs and networks, it is a numbers game.
Small profits from thousands of affiliate programs is good business for the networks.
The affiliate programs also use the same paradigm to pay affiliates huge commissions.
But for affiliate marketers it does not seem that most of them are getting their hands on the juicy commissions.
Why? They lack the knowledge necessary to run affiliate marketing for profit.
Most affiliate marketers do not break even when they invest money in affiliate marketing, because they don't do things right.
