When I’m on the lookout for an affiliate program, the first thing I look for is the payout. Based to the type of offer you earn from 10% to even 8o% of the sales did through affiliate programs you’ve choosed. According to the amazing affiliate marketing infographic below(View full size here), at least 41% of affiliates promote health, sport and fitness related offers.
As someone that preaches being radically transparent, and in order to understand the service I used to double my monthly revenue stream, I decided to share all the affiliate networks that make me generate money. These are all services that I use and that I want to reccomend you because they worked with me and are companies that I trust.
