What is affiliate program?
Making money online through affiliate programs is similar to making money online through referrals but the difference is that for one to make money online through affiliate program, the referral has to lead to a sale. You will be paid a commission for each successful sale.
For instance, if the person you referred purchases a book worth Ksh. 600. You will be paid about Kenya Shillings 200. It is one of the best and most genuine ways of making money online. However, the only problem with making money online through affiliate program is that it takes time for one to make a purchase.
