Affiliate program publishers place specially formatted links to advertisers' websites on their webpages, mobile web pages, or within apps. When a visitor clicks an affiliate link on the publisher's webpage, the advertiser's website (often a landing page) opens. If the visitor makes a purchase at the advertiser's website after arriving there from the publisher's website, the publisher receives a commission on the sale or a flat fee, depending on the affiliate agreement.
