An Affiliate Program is a partnership with an online merchant who compensates you for any sales you send that merchant via links on your site or promotional e-mail.  An Affiliate Program is an easy way to earn money off the traffic your site may already be receiving.  Another option available to generate even more income is the multi-tier Affiliate Programs.  Multi-Tier enables the Affiliate to market to potential clients AND to other potential Affiliates.  This means you can utilize your access to both target audiences to maximize your earning potential.  Each time you introduce another Webmaster to the program, that Webmaster begins to market on your behalf and increases your revenue.

These affiliate programs have a structure similar to multi-level or network marketing organizations such as Amway.  The affiliate profits through both commission sales and sub-affiliate recruitment.  In addition to receiving commissions based on sales, clicks, or leads from their own site, affiliates in these programs also receive a commission based on the activity of sub-affiliate sites they refer to the merchant site.

Affiliates in these programs can keep making money from visitors they send to the merchant site for as long as the visitor continues to purchase goods or services from the merchant site.  This is leads to a continuous income stream when good products and service result in happy customers returning to purchase products for the long-term.

If you have a website, an opt-in mailing list, or if you are an entrepreneur, you can become an Affiliate.  All you need to do is put up a link or banner for a merchant of your choice.  You can also promote product links to your opt-in mailing list.  Then you sit back and watch your traffic make you money.

No.  Our program is very easy to use.  Account setup is instantaneous and all our links and banners are straightforward.  We provide a monthly affiliate newsletter with marketing advice and our resource center has everything you need.  If at any time you need help, please contact us for immediate assistance.

The quality of affiliate programs and the results you'll see will vary greatly from program to program.  This makes it important to choose the affiliate program you join wisely.  Important points to keep in mind are listed below.

1 - Stability of the company and program
This should be one of the most important considerations when evaluating programs.  Is the company financially sound?  Do they offer assistance with promoting the opportunity?  And, do they pay in a timely fashion?  Often, webmasters have been lured in by offers of high commissions, only to find out they will never see a paycheck, despite referring hundreds, or even thousands, of visitors.

2 - Compatibility and Synergies with your site
As you consider the various affiliate programs available, be sure to consider what exactly your audience might be interested in clicking-on and eventually buying.  Don't indiscriminately place banners all over your site because in many cases, you will turn-off your audience due to your site's over-commercialization.  Think of the affiliate program you join as an extension of your website.  It is a service you offer your visitors to help them find the products or services they are interested in, at good prices, and with a merchant they can trust.

3 - Opportunity for Repeat Earnings
A business normally cannot survive on one-time purchases.  Instead you must find ways to not only attract new customers, but also to keep earning from your existing customers.  As much as possible, join affiliate programs that allow you to earn commissions from your referred customers on an ongoing basis for as long as that customer continues to transact at merchant website. This assures you a lifetime source of income.

4 - Competitive Commission Structure
Compare various affiliate programs and their respective commission structures.  While you're at it, also check the frequency of payment (they generally range from weekly to quarterly) and the minimum dollar value you must accumulate before receiving payment (that ranges from $1 to $250).

5 - Free of Charge Entry
Entry to most Affiliate Programs is free of charge.  Be wary of programs that require a payment or 'membership fee' for you to join.  Many of these are notorious scams that play on everyone's interest in earning additional income.

Traffic passes through your website anyways, right?  Our Affiliate Program harnesses your traffic to help you earn additional income.  The way this works is simple: when a visitor to your site clicks on the India Herbs link you have provided, that visitor will go to one of our product sites.  Once there, if the visitor does a transaction, you earn a percentage of the gross proceeds in the form of commission.  If the visitor doesn't spend any money, we still log the visitor's IP address and cookie.  When this person returns again and makes any purchase on any of our websites, our system will know you referred the customer and credit you the commission.  Any customer that you refer to us will be associated to you for lifetime.  You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.  It's a win-win situation.

Anytime you need assistance, please email us and our team will respond within 24 hours.  We provide high-quality banners for you to choose from, everything you need to get started, and an email newsletter to keep you informed of the latest marketing news and ideas.  We are in the process of developing an extensive webmaster resources area to help you succeed in a BIG WAY.  In addition, as your referrals signup for our newsletters, we promote existing and new products to them on a regular basis to ensure they return to India Herbs websites to make purchases.  Superb follow-up customer service and affiliate support ensures that both your customers and sub-affiliates remain happy and you earn well-deserved commissions.
