>> Dont affiliates get paid purely on click throughs? No conversion required?
No, not all. I'd be a billionaire by now if this was true.
I've been in the affiliate business for 11 years and so far I've yet to come across any decent program that paid out just for clicks. Everything is conversion-based. For good reason - generating clicks is trivial and dirt-cheap, if you don't have to worry about conversions.
I found a few click-based programs a few years back. Turns out they were just monitoring conversions on the backend anyway, and dropping all non-performing affiliates.
- nickthemagicman 10y agoInteresting I thought it was the affiliates job to drive traffic towards the business and the business job to do the conversion. i.e. with sales and whatnot. So, I see, the affiliate is responsible for driving 'quality' traffic towards a business. It seems like industries like gambling and smoking and other vice industries would be the best place to be then?
- nickthemagicman 10y agoI didnt mean that as dengrative. I hope it didnt seem that way. I was actually pretty interested because I was looking to possibly try out affiliate marketing myself.
