9 Best Affiliate Marketing for Beginners in 2022

Throughout this article, you’ll see examples of many affiliate marketing for beginners. But what’s most important here are actually affiliate networks. Many people use these terms interchangeably, but a network is a place where you go to find the individual programs.

9 Types of Affiliate Marketing

Amazon Associates

Amazon Associates is the absolute best affiliate marketing program for beginners.

You can sign up for its affiliate account in just a few minutes, and it sells virtually everything. So you’ll be able to promote Amazon products, regardless of your niche.

That said, its commission rates are very low. You can see up-to-date rates on this page. But as of this writing, most of the rates range from just 1–3%.

All the Big Box Stores

Like Amazon, all the big box stores have affiliate programs that are really easy to use. Also like Amazon, their commission rates are pretty poor. But they are an easy way to get started while you grow to eventually move to better-paying partners.

These include:

  • Walmart
  • Target
  • Home Depot
  • Lowes
  • Staples
  • Etc

Avantlink

AvantLink is super easy to sign up and get started. Some of the best and highest-paying affiliate programs available through AvantLink include:

  • FFL123.com | 50% commission | Firearms/Tactical
  • Super Speciosa | 40% commission | Health/Wellness
  • Reddiyo | 30% commission | Cycling
  • Wedding Hashers | 30% commission | Custom/Personalized Products
  • Sprinkle & Sweep | 25% commission | Pet Products

ShareASale

ShareASale is another popular network for affiliate partners. It also lacks in the reporting department but is good enough for beginners.

Some great affiliate options on ShareASale include:

  • Northwest Registered Agent LLC | $100 commission | Business Registrant
  • Promaster | 15% commission | Photography
  • Print Games Now | 35–45% commission | Printing/Games
  • FreshBooks | $55 commission | Small Business/Finance
  • Aviron Interactive | $110 commission | Fitness

Commission Junction

Commission Junction (CJ) is one of the oldest affiliate networks out there, founded all the way back in 1998. Because of that, it has one of the widest selections of affiliate programs.

Some cool programs on CJ include:

  • Slova Cosmetics | 20% commission | Bath & Body
  • US Service Animals | 25% commission | Pets
  • Puraclenz | 25% commission | Equipment

Tune

TUNE is great due to its excellent reporting dashboard and ease of use. However, it’s a bit different than the others on this list. Instead of being able to browse its affiliate partners, you have to find someone using its platform to use TUNE.

Rather than recommending specific partners for this one, apply to become a TUNE media partner. Once you sign up, it will automatically connect you with the best affiliate partners for your specific niche.

Impact Radius

Impact Radius has been extremely successful in the affiliate space, with brand partners including Airbnb, Adidas, Lenovo, and more.

One of the nice things about Impact is that it will continually recommend you brand partners based on your niche and current partners. This makes it easy to find new affiliate programs with minimal effort.

Some great affiliate options on Impact include:

  • Canva | 16–80% commission | Graphic Design
  • Pure Hemp Botanicals | 50% commission | CBD
  • Thumbtack | 30% commission | Services
  • Hyphen Sleep | 18% commission | Mattresses
  • Skillshare | 40% commission | Education

Refersion Marketplace

Refersion is one of the most successful affiliate software out there, with big brand name partners including Amazon, Shopify, and BigCommerce. Its dashboard is super simplistic and easy to use, which is great for beginners.

Some excellent brand partner options on Refersion include:

  • ZUGU iPad Cases | 15% commission | Phones
  • Peejamas | 10–20% commission | Kid’s Clothing
  • Bodhi Dog | 20% commission | Pet Care
  • LUNA Sandals | 10–30% commission | Footwear
  • Bare & Bones | 20% commission | Food

Rakuten

Last but not least, Rakuten Advertising is another of the oldest affiliate networks out there that started in 1997. Like CJ, it suffers from dated-feeling interfaces but has a wide selection of brands. Overall, Rakuten interface is poor, but it does have some interesting affiliate programs.

Some options for beginners include:

  • Valise Homewares | 14% commission | House Goods
  • Ryderwear | 4–10% commission | Athletic Clothing
  • Trafalgar | 10% commission | Leather Goods
