How Authors Can Generate Affiliate Book Sales

Looking to get others to sell your book for you -- and help them make some money?

There are three primary ways to locate affiliate programs for your website:

1.      Consult affiliate program directories

2.      Work with a large affiliate network that provides the platform for dozens or even hundreds of advertisers.

3.      Research individual merchants to see if they offer an affiliate program.

A simple Internet search will reveal many directories to help you connect with suitable affiliate programs. Here are a few places to start looking:

·       Best of the Web Directory of Affiliate Programs (http://botw.org/top/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Authoring/Webmaster_Resources/Affiliate_Programs/)

·         Associate Programs (http://www.associateprograms.com/directory/)

·         Affiliate Seeking (http://www.affiliateseeking.com/)

Other companies that have established themselves as a central marketplace of different merchants offering products and services for sale include Commission Junction (cj.com).  ClickBank (clickbank.com). Link.Share (linkshare.com) and

ShareASale(shareasale.com).

Through these companies, you can market the whole merchant site or a specific product from the central site. The activity you generate is tied to your personal affiliate code, and the respective merchant sends you a commission check.
