================== ARTICLE START ==================
Affiliate programs will enable a business to generate a lot of
traffic and therefore boost sales through promotion by third
party sales or sites. It's also a cost effective way to
advertise your products and services as you pay only for the
efforts that actually turn into sales.

Setting up your own affiliate system can be either easy or
overwhelming, all depending on how many
affiliates you want to recruit, as well as your payment policy
and the type of product that you are offering.

As for your affiliate systems, there are two options for your
business - outsource the entire system or run your own
affiliate system through your own web host. Each one boasts its
own advantages as
well as disadvantages.

If you have a small amount of affiliates, then you can run your
own affiliate software. If you plan to recruit a large number of
affiliates, then you will probably need to outsource. The reason
for this, is because you'll find it easy to deal with a large
number of sign ups, track payments, monitor clicks, etc.

Types of affiliates

There are numerous types of affiliates out there to choose
from. There's the pay per sale, there an individual is paid
only if a sale is generated from the affiliate's link. It's the
least attractive to people, unless the product is in high demand
and the most profitable for business.

Another type is the pay per lead, where you pay only for
traffic. With this type, the affiliate is paid only if a
visitor is generated from the site of the affiliate. It's
attractive to affiliates although costly to web site owners due
to the possibility of non sale visits.

Considerations

When setting up an affiliate, something to consider is whether
or not you'll approve affiliates manually or automatically.
It's normally recommended to start affiliate programs with your
established customer sites then progress to new ones.

If you are dealing with pay per clicks, you may have to control
the affiliates as the quality of visitors will be a huge factor
when it comes to the generation of sales. By manually
reviewing, you'll also be able to judge the website or
individual affiliates to see if it's in the best interest of
your company.

If you decide to use your own affiliate system, one of your
biggest challenges will be how to pay affiliates a percentage
of what you end up receiving from customers. To do this, you
can rely on software such as Affiliate shop to help you track
and manage commissions.
