Affiliate Programs


Make your website earn money for you!  Affiliate programs are an arrangement in which an online merchant web site pays affiliate web sites a commission for sending them traffic.  Affiliate Web sites post links to the merchant site and are paid according to an agreement based on the number of sales generated from people who click on links from your website.

Commissions earned can be very generous, and, more importantly… little work is required on behalf of the site owner.   Everyday items can earn your organization income on a regular basis.   This is a simple fundraising method for any organization that has a web presence.   The only time and effort involved is in creating the original link and asking your members to support the sites you are affiliated with, and your web developer can do this in minutes.
