What should you know about affiliate marketing commissions? First and foremost, you earn a commission when you sell a product. If you are promoting an eBook that sells for $40, you would earn a percentage of the sale, as outlined in the affiliate agreement, each time you make a sale. 🙂
Affiliate marketing commissions vary by product, by the company, and by selling price. I’ve found that most commissions range from 20% to 50% of the selling price. In my opinion, the industry average is about 40%. I earn between 25% and 40% commission on the different affiliate products I promote on this website. So, that is a real world example. 😀
If you are new to affiliate marketing, you need to educate yourself. I’ll give you a brief overview below, but you should spend some additional time surfing the internet, learning the ropes of affiliate marketing.

The Brutal Truth

Since selling is a numbers game, you must work the numbers. Obviously, you won’t make much money by putting affiliate links on a website that only gets 100 visitors a day. You might get a sale or two a month, maybe. But if you have a high traffic website with relevant, high-quality affiliate links, you can earn a small fortune. 😛
