Have you ever clicked on a product link from a blog, coupon or review site? If you have, the chances are you’ve clicked on an affiliate program link and they made a commission off that click or conversion.
In this article, we want to tell you more about the power of affiliate marketing, and more specifically the benefits for businesses and content creators, such as bloggers. We will also give you some useful tips on how to pick the best affiliate provider solution for you, as well as answer some of the most frequently asked questions. We will also briefly talk about the potential threats stemming from the use of affiliate marketing.
What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is the process in which an affiliate is compensated for generating traffic or leads for a product or service. In most cases, affiliate marketers are paid commissions either one-time or recurring. As an affiliate, you earn commissions through purchases made using your referral link. Depending on the business model, some businesses have pay-outs based per click but most pay per conversion.
The Brixly affiliate program pays you for every conversion recurring, meaning you will always get paid as long as the referred service is still active. As a business, we also hold one of the highest retention rates in the industry – this means more commission, for longer periods of time. Some of our affiliate partners have referred thousands of clients to us, and get paid each and every month!
Can I start Affiliate Marketing with no money?
Of course! At Brixly, we even give you £10 free credit, as a goodwill gesture to start with. We do not expect you to spend money to join our fantastic program; we want you to make money.
Here are a few more benefits of joining an affiliate network:
- No need to chase payments; the platform handles it for you
- Choose products or services that make sense for your audience, without the need to provide their technical support
- Some affiliate networks offer rewards and incentives—so the more you sell, the better your commission rates may be
- Access to analytics and reporting tools so you can track your progress
Pros

There are some cons to affiliate networks. For example, some offer very low commission rates or require sites to have a specific amount of traffic before they can apply. Overall, however, they can be a powerful way to monetize website traffic.
Cons
- Less control – You won’t have full control over the product in question.

Affiliate Marketing Strategies
Affiliate marketing is a low-cost form of digital marketing, beneficial for both affiliate marketers and Brixly, forming an incredible partnership. There are several ways to affiliate market our products. Below is a list of ways you can promote our products to maximise your profits and reach a wider audience.
Review sites
Review websites are a great way to affiliate market because they are targeted. You should consider partnering with websites or platforms that review products. With most product/service review websites, the products reviewed contain an affiliate link. Even better, you can create your own review site to build an audience! When you know and serve an audience well, you create a whole slew of opportunities.
Coupon Affiliates
Coupon promotions are one of the best affiliate marketing strategies because people are always looking for the best deals and promotions. They work particularly well during specific periods, such as black Friday, boxing day, Christmas day etc. Affiliate coupons are the same coupons we are used to in advertising & marketing that are used by affiliate marketers to bring attention to the product and recruit new customers. Coupons can benefit everyone in the process because the user gets a discount, the affiliate gets a commission and the product owner gets a sale.
Blogging
Blogging is increasingly getting popular and is one of the most widely used affiliate marketing strategies.
As a blogger, you can write regular unique content about the products on sale. If someone clicks on your unique link and buys the product, you will get a commission for that sale. With Brixly, you would automatically get 10% of that sale. Bloggers often build and maintain a large email list of subscribers, meaning affiliate partners could also benefit through email marketing. Website traffic could also be sent to our products through website banner ads, mentions and text links embedded in the content.
Influencer Marketing
In this modern day, partnering with Influencers is a great way to market your products online because of their audience. You could become an influencer if you have a large social media following. More specifically, influencers provide marketers with reach and the ability to sway the purchasing decisions of real people.
