If you\u2019re selling physical products like shoes or books, you might go through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cj.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Commission Junction<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/stephenfbrown.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/money-transfer-3588301_1280-1024x725.jpg\" alt=\"launch your own affiliate program\" class=\"wp-image-1464 lazyload\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/stephenfbrown.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/money-transfer-3588301_1280-1024x725.jpg\" alt=\"launch your own affiliate program\" class=\"wp-image-1464 lazyload\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Located at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cj.com\/\">www.cj.com<\/a>, Commission Junction is one of the largest affiliate systems in the world.&nbsp; They may be a little complex to set up, and they have certain rules you\u2019ll have to comply with, but they have a huge database of affiliates ready and waiting to promote your products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re selling digital products like software or eBooks, you might want to go through <a href=\"https:\/\/idevelopwp.reseller.hop.clickbank.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">ClickBank<\/a>.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/idevelopwp.reseller.hop.clickbank.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">ClickBank<\/a> is the world\u2019s largest seller of eBooks and other digital products.\u00a0 They make it extremely easy to run an affiliate program, and they take care of almost everything for you.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They handle the billing for you, they handle customer refund requests, and they can even handle some of your customer service questions.\u00a0 They\u2019ll even pay your affiliates for you.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/idevelopwp.reseller.hop.clickbank.net\" rel=\"sponsored\">ClickBank<\/a> does take a percentage of your sales, so if you\u2019re paying your affiliates a 50{495e61a8be0728ba5e4172c16a68a1b05f8df91b32cf783b0a6ac5a97f0ba813} commission, you\u2019ll be making quite a bit less than 50{495e61a8be0728ba5e4172c16a68a1b05f8df91b32cf783b0a6ac5a97f0ba813} yourself, because of <a href=\"https:\/\/idevelopwp.reseller.hop.clickbank.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">ClickBank\u2019s<\/a> fees.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also charge $49 up front to approve your product before you\u2019re allowed to sell through them.&nbsp; But you\u2019ll have fees with <em>any<\/em> billing solution.&nbsp; After all, they have to make money somehow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An alternative to ClickBank is PayDotCom.\u00a0 PayDotCom is very similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/idevelopwp.reseller.hop.clickbank.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\">ClickBank<\/a>, but with a few differences.\u00a0 With PayDotCom, you currently don\u2019t have to pay an upfront fee to sell a single product through them.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The money also goes to your PayPal account, which can be another big benefit.&nbsp; But for people without PayPal accounts, PayDotCom isn\u2019t going to work.&nbsp; You need a PayPal account to be paid, and you\u2019ll also have to pay your affiliates out of your PayPal account, as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How To Launch Your Own Affiliate Program If you have your own product, launching an affiliate program is a necessity if you want to reach your full profit potential.&nbsp;
