How does affliate marketing work?

Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing strategy where businesses reward affiliates for driving traffic or sales to their products through the affiliate's marketing efforts. Affiliates promote the business's products using unique tracking links, often on their websites or social media. When a customer clicks on the link and makes a purchase, the affiliate earns a commission. This model benefits both parties: businesses gain exposure and sales, while affiliates earn income for their promotional efforts.
