Affiliate Marketing - Amazon

In 1997, Amazon.com launched the concept of affiliate programs into prominence (they weren't the first, but they were the first to do it big-time!). For the one person on the Net who doesn't know, Amazon sells books (and tons of other merchandise now) online... and only online.

Books, of course, offer information on millions of different specialized subjects. And there are millions of websites out there, on an incredible variety of subjects.

So Amazon figured, Why not convert those sites into specialized, niche book shops for us? We will pay a commission when a site refers a customer who buys a book.

And that is how Amazon started one of the first affiliate programs (also called associate or referrer programs).
