Affiliates
Do you own a blog, website, or regularly post content on social media? Do your posts provide help, suggestions, tips or guides for people? If so that's great and your readers/viewers want you to continue to work on putting this great content together. They don't necessarily expect you do this for nothing, for no reward. Your investment in time can be substantial if you add it all up. You might get disheartened or distracted if all the benefit is flowing one way, away from you. What if there was a way for you to get some benefit from all this? What if your readers/viewers/followers could, through their purchases, and at no extra cost to them, enable you to get some income from your effort? Wouldn't that encourage you to keep producing more great content for your followers?
How to Earn Money Online?
By joining the Vendexo Affiliate Network as an affiliate, you can choose advertisers/merchants that you would like to work with. If they have products or services which your readers/followers would be interested in, then you can use a special hyperlink in your content, or an advertisment alongside your content which, when clicked, will take the reader to the advertiser's website. If the reader then purchases from that website, you could earn a percentage of that sale. This does not result in the reader paying any more for that product or service. Merchants typically calculate a percentage of their revenue as a budget for advertising and marketing. They are happy to send some of this your way for sending them a customer.
The Vendexo Affiliate Network provides affiliates with a way to locate relevant products to mention in your content, to see what the commission rates are, and to locate creative text and images to use in their content, be that in a blog, website or on social media. As an affiliate, we make one convenient payment to you each month* incorporating the commissions from all products and services earned via the Network.
