Affiliate marketing networks are platforms that connect advertisers (brands or companies) with affiliates (publishers or marketers) who promote the advertisers’ products or services. These networks act as intermediaries, facilitating partnerships where affiliates earn commissions for driving traffic, leads, or sales to the advertisers.

Here’s how they work: Advertisers join an affiliate network and list their offers or campaigns, specifying commission structures and terms. Affiliates browse these offers and select ones that align with their audience or niche. Using unique tracking links provided by the network, affiliates promote the products through websites, blogs, social media, or paid ads. When a user clicks an affiliate link and completes the desired action (purchase, sign-up, etc.), the network tracks this and credits the affiliate with a commission.

Affiliate marketing networks simplify the process by providing tracking technology, payment processing, and reporting tools, making it easier for both parties to manage campaigns efficiently.

One popular example in the performance marketing space is 7Search PPC, which offers pay-per-click advertising that affiliates can leverage to promote offers with precise targeting. 7Search PPC combines the benefits of PPC campaigns with affiliate marketing strategies, enabling affiliates to maximize traffic and conversions while advertisers get measurable ROI.
