Some people think that affiliate marketing centers on promoting a product from a particular brand/ website with your link as the only way to be successful and be a good a good affiliate marketer but that’s not true.
What is affiliate marketing:
Affiliate marketing can simply be defined as an agreement between you and a company/brand/website or an individual to promote a product / service and in return get a commission from the sales through your link. This link can be a promo link or just a referral link.
If you successfully promote your link for people to test a product, do survey on a site and get paid, listen to music and get paid, use an app and get paid, watch ads and get paid, play game and get paid, visit a site and get paid e.t.c, you are already an affiliate marketer as far as you will get your own commission when your referrals buy or use the services provide by that particular company, firm or individual. In other words, affiliate marketing does not center on promoting only products from a particular company. Promotion of services is inclusive and it is not channeled to any particular company or firm.

Affiliate marketing is now a more lucrative job than the 8 to 5 white collar job because you work as a boss and nobody orders you around.
With affiliate marketing, you a have prior knowledge of some goods and services before you will relate it to people to test. This helps you as an individual to always be the first to test new technology before it gets deep into the market.
