Affiliate Marketing Profits

Two Tier Affiliate Programs

---

A two tier affiliate program allows affiliate marketers to earn additional money from signing up other affiliates. With a two tier program, affiliates earn commissions from any sales they make plus they earn a small commission when someone they have signed up as an affiliate earns commissions too.

The extra commission is not taken from the affiliate you have signed up though, it comes out of the merchant’s share of the sale.

With two tier affiliate programs, the more people you get signed up as an affiliate the more money you can make. Keep in mind however that getting them to sign up as an affiliate doesn’t usually earn you anything. Those affiliates then have to promote the products and make sales themselves before you’re able to earn any extra.

Promoting two tier affiliate programs can be quite lucrative over the long term.
