 | Affiliate selling is changing all of the rules about who can do what on the Web, who holds the cards, who owns the customer, and who makes the money.
The premise is simple: anybody with a Web site can earn commissions by directing visitors to other sites that actually sell something.
Affiliate Selling was written for anyone who: 1) is thinking about adding commissions as a revenue stream to an existing site; 2) wants to create a new site that generates affiliate commissions; or 3) is a merchant who wants to create their own affiliate program.
If you missed the first wave of the Web, hang on tight. The second wave is about to hit. Anybody who wants to can play, and we wrote this book to tell you how to do it.
