Most people would shy away when we start talking about home based business in affiliate marketing for the simple reason that they really don’t fully understand how it work and they don’t want to sell goods and services. If you take a closer look into affiliate marketing, you will find out that it does not necessarily mean peddling or offering goods and services to your friends or family members. In fact, affiliate marketing is really a system of income sharing and cost sharing.

How does a home-based business on network and affiliate marketing work? Network marketing work by recruiting members who will use the product it is selling. The system is multi-level where a person who becomes a member of the network can recruit a friend or a family member to register under his or her network. Every time the recruit purchases a product of the company, the recruiter gets a commission. The good thing about network marketing is that you do not only get a commission on your direct recruit but also on the purchases of your recruit’s recruit usually up to the fourth level. Some networking companies give commission up to the eight level of recruits which really a big advantage if you have a wide network.

Affiliate marketing is a great way for anybody to start a home-based business. The most common reason that people do not get started in affiliate marketing is because they are not aware of what it entails. The basic definition is that affiliate marketing is a method of promoting websites in a way that affiliates are rewarded for sending visitors or customers to other sites. As far as affiliate marketing is concerned, compensation varies depending on the type of program that you are involved with. In some cases you will get paid or have to pay for each visitor that you send or receive. In other cases, compensation is based purely on customers buying products or services.

Many people have benefited for network and affiliate marketing. People who set up home-based business in network and affiliate marketing have succeeded in earning huge income from their networks. The key to success in the networking business is helping each other build a wide member base. A member who helps his or her recruit in recruiting more people would benefit and most likely enjoy the benefits of earning commissions from their recruit’s recruit so it is really a good idea to help each other.

The many critics who would say that networking only makes the people on top of the network rich while those at the bottom will not get anything. Well, that is a matter of opinion. The system is really about pooling of resources by creating a network of consumers. If you build a network, not everybody could be on top at once but everyone will have a fair chance of making it to the top if one will work hard enough. A home-based business in network and affiliate marketing is created to function as a team business, meaning you help each other out. The idea really is to help each other add more people to the system so that you can reach your goal and in return help others do the same. In effect, as you help those people below you to reach another level of the network, you will also be helping yourself reach your goal.
