iBRANDZ Affiliate
Marketing Management Services
Affiliate marketing is a
marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for
each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate's own marketing efforts.
Examples include rewards sites, where users are rewarded with cash or gifts, for
the completion of an offer, and the referral of others to the site. The industry
has four core players: the merchant (also known as 'retailer' or 'brand'), the network,
the publisher (also known as 'the affiliate'), and the customer. The market has
grown in complexity to warrant a secondary tier of players, including affiliate
management agencies, super-affiliates and specialized third parties vendors.
Affiliate marketing overlaps with other Internet marketing methods to some
degree, because affiliates often use regular advertising methods.
Those methods include organic search
engine optimization, paid search
engine marketing, e-mail marketing,
and in some sense display
advertising. On the other hand, affiliates sometimes use less orthodox
techniques, such as publishing reviews of products or services offered by a
partner.
Affiliate marketing—using one website to drive traffic to
another—is a form of online
marketing, which is frequently overlooked by advertisers. While search
engines, e-mail, and website
syndication capture much of the
attention of online retailers, affiliate marketing carries a much lower profile.
Still, affiliates continue to play a significant role in e-retailers' marketing
strategies.
Managing an
affiliate program in the right way is extremely important when it comes to the
success of such a program.
