Be paid after getting results. Compared with the traditional banner ads where you have to pay up front and just wait if you earned any money later, affiliate programs are a little different. They require you to pay only whenever someone buys your product, meaning you only pay when someone gives you some profit. You do not ever have to buy advertising that does not work because you can test the copy of your ads and banners on the sites of affiliates for free.

Having an affiliate program will generate lots of traffic for your site. You may be able to use this traffic for free. If the site visitors do not buy they may be able to subscribe to your site or opt in list and then in this way, you may follow up with your product offers or even recommend other products through the affiliate program that you subscribed to.

You may also use the traffic to attract advertisers to your site and banner space may be offered on your site at a recommended premium rate. Better rankings in search engines will result in link popularity. Nowadays, link popularity is a big factor among the major search engines. The affiliates will link to your site in order to earn commissions and you can easily have many links for your site.

You will always win with affiliate programs. You don’t have to pay for advertising unless you make money first.
