What is an affiliate?

An affiliate is a commercial entity with a relationship with a peer or a larger entity.

Affiliate marketing typically refers to this Electronic commerce version of the traditional agent/referral fee sales channel concept. An e-commerce affiliate is a website which links back to an e-commerce site such as Amazon.com. When the readers of the website click on the link, they are connected to the e-tailer and if they purchase something the affiliate receives a small payment (depending upon the e-commerce site policies), usually a percentage of the money the customer spends. Affiliates can also be referred as publishers. The Hotel and Travel Industry uses affiliate marketing to a large extent.
