Earning Potentials of Sundry Affiliate Marketing Programs

Like marketing experts like to say, everyone is in affiliate marketing business to make money online. Depending on your experience, skills and expertise, how much people make in the business varies from person to person. Some merely earn a second paycheck from it while others earn full-time income from it. What is involved is simply to help product merchants sell their products/services and the affiliate marketer earns a commission for his efforts. That is why selling products or different kinds of services with the use of affiliate marketing programs helps to provide real opportunity for marketers to earn income. Many not only get momentary profits in form of commissions/bonuses for each new customer they sign up, but also constant payments and even residual incomes for their efforts. Some publishers in the mold of webmasters, social media influencers, bloggers and other online entrepreneurs can make some affiliate sales today which may become a constant source of income for them for over quite some time in the future. 


 
As affiliate marketers, everyone’s earnings directly depend on how efficiently they convert potential customers into buyers. The more paying customers they have, the more the commissions they earn. That is exactly where the money really is. What assures the steady flow of commissions/bonuses is that you must be ready to fine tune and hone your marketing/promotion skills on daily basis.  That way, you can learn to understand and master the main needs of your customers/buyers by constantly analyzing your inbound traffic flow and adjusting your ads to get more and more inbound traffic. Your main duty as an affiliate marketer is to promote products like hell to attract customers and consequently more bonuses/commissions. The icing on the cake is that you can do all the required promotional activities from the comfort of your home or from anywhere in the world provided there is internet service. Above all, you have the opportunity to work at your own pace, run your business at your own time and as you deem fit while remaining your own Boss.

Even though there is a very high level of competition in affiliate marketing business, there is room for everyone to make some money depending on their marketing skills and capacity. Any seriously ambitious person with the right drive can achieve some measure of success in the business.

Because of commissions/bonuses paying differentials from one affiliate program to the other, what marketers earn also varies along same lines. A huge percentage of online marketers don’t get to make substantial money at all. Of that percentage, only about 5% gets to make good money in substantial sums but for everyone in it, the potentials are always there to make money and they are very enticing. Don’t get carried away when you hear some affiliate marketers say they make up to $10,000 per day. Even though this is a possibility, it is not very common. Only very few and indeed a very small minority of affiliate marketers get to make money in that range.

Generally, the higher the income sums, the lower the percentage of affiliate marketers who earn income in that range. Here is a general overview.

$0-$1,000/month

$1,000-$5,000/month

$5,000-$25,000/month

$25,000-$50,000/month

$50,000-$100,000/month

Above $100,000/month

From various affiliate programs, affiliate marketers who get to earn from $0-$5,000/month are well over 60% while those who earn above $100,000/month are well below 1%, which is mainly due to the huge competition out there. Internet marketing skills and experience tend to make a whole lot of difference in what every marketer gets to earn in affiliate marketing.
