A user or customer supports a product or service in return for money from the seller or merchant. This is called partner marketing. The client, who is now called an “Affiliate Portal,” gets paid when their audience does what the sponsor wants them to do, which is usually make a purchase.

Affiliate marketing programs may be useful for writers and other content makers because they let them sell a product or service to their readers in exchange for a fee. Affiliates can make money by promoting things they like and getting a cut of the sales. You can keep track of your sales with affiliate links.
