Can you imagine a marketing that is directly making you profit? Probably the best kind of marketing, that is still working only online because it makes tracking available thanks to information technology. Here is an example.

Affiliate marketing is a method of promoting web businesses in which an affiliate is rewarded for every visitor, subscriber, customer, and/or sale provided through his/her efforts. It is a modern variation of the practice of paying a finder’s fee for the introduction of new clients to a business. Compensation may be made based on a certain value for each visit (Pay per click), registrant (Pay per lead), or a commission for each customer or sale (Pay per sale), or any combination.
In this marketing anyone who wants can promote your product, and they will be paid appropriately. But some companies care about future and potential costumers so they if promote them they will pay you for every visit, subscriber etc. Pay for performance.

Having an affiliate program that is successful is not as easy anymore. Although some consider affiliate marketing as a hoax, it is a legitimate way to profit and needs hard work.
