Examples of actions are buying a product, requesting to be contacted by a sales agent or signing up for an online service. For example, if we have a site that talks about cars, our readers will potentially be interested in an insurance service. In this case, you could display a banner of an insurance company with an affiliate program that allows you to earn a percentage on each of the readers who take out a policy.
The secret to making money from affiliates is to advertise only personally tested products and use the affiliate link not with a traditional banner, but within an article.
We could write a post comparing various insurance companies online and, whenever we write the name of the insurance company, use the affiliate link.
Readers who buy a policy thanks to our article will generate a profit for us too.
