3 methods of earning in Affiliate marketing

In affiliate marketing, there are three types or categories of marketing. they are pay-per-click, pay-per-sale, and pay-per-lead.

Pay-per-click: This method in affiliate marketing is directly dependent on how many visitors arrive at the merchant (Amazon site) through your link. This one is more beneficial as the marketer as long visitors check on the merchants regardless of whether sales were made or not.

Just say that clicks from visitors on merchants' sites earn a commission.

Pay-per-sale: Just as the name sounds, you get paid as you sell. So long visitors purchase products through your affiliate link, you earn commissions for it. A very common form of affiliate marketing.

Pay-per-lead: This takes the form of payment based on the number of visitors to the merchant's site.

What validates visitors' presence is when they fill out the form provided by the merchant.
