Each business model consists of many elements, thanks to which the operation of a given model is improved and more effective. Affiliate marketing is no different. Affiliate networks, advertisers, affiliate programs and of course affiliate publishers… But these are not all the factors that make up this branch of internet marketing.
An often overlooked, but equally important factor is the existence of subnetworks and their coexistence with each of the aforementioned elements of affiliate marketing. What are sub-affiliate networks, what are their advantages and how do affiliate networks such as MyLead cooperate with subnetworks? Let’s find out!
What are sub-affiliate networks?
A sub-affiliate network helps publishers monetize their traffic sources, i.e. blogs, websites or social channels, by joining affiliate programs provided by various affiliate networks. It also offers services and support to affiliate publishers – often bloggers, influencers, content creators and website owners.
A subnetwork is therefore an external network that works with another affiliate network as a regular publisher. The subnetwork has its own publishers that do not need to be registered with the parent affiliate network and communicate with the system only through the subnetwork.
What do sub-affiliate networks gain from cooperation with affiliate networks?
The cooperation we talk about in this article brings advantages not only to advertisers or affiliate publishers, but also to the subnetworks themselves.
Win-win situation
Sometimes, advertisers prefer cooperation with larger affiliate networks. There may also be an exclusivity agreement with competing networks. Additionally, it takes more effort and time to engage with multiple advertisers.
Cooperation with an affiliate network will therefore allow you to circumvent the problem of exclusivity for a specific network or the potential waste of time by direct contact with advertisers. At the same time, it will provide your publishers with more programs, which will bring more profit to your subnetwork.
One deal, unlimited possibilities
In the case of establishing cooperation with MyLead, it is enough to accept the regulations for the subnetwork to receive access to over four thousand affiliate programs. Thanks to this model, as a representative of a sub-affiliate network, you do not have to worry about direct contact with advertisers, where one contract often equals access to one campaign only.
Publishers looking for solutions
Assuming that meeting the needs of the publisher is the most important thing in this business, remember that it is not always the rates that are most important, but the flexibility and solutions that the subnetwork can offer. When choosing a place to earn online, the publisher will often focus on the support offered or possible payment methods. Subnetworks also often offer their own services or tools that will make the earning process easier. This is what publishers want. And the more publishers, the greater the profit of your subnetwork.
MyLead – the network worth working with
At MyLead, we focus on openness, partnership, professional service and safety. This makes us an ideal partner willing to start working with sub-affiliate networks.
Here are the factors that distinguish us from other networks:
Wide range of activities
Thanks to our openness to various models and categories of affiliate programs, we create an ideal environment for various advertisers. Including those offering products and services promoting which is often not accepted in advertising networks, for example from the financial or investment industry. Thus, we provide them with access to a wider group of publishers, which translates to effective customer acquisition. Our strong suit are offers from the dating, betting, gambling and forex/cryptocurrency categories, and for some time now, we have been strongly developing in the e-commerce field.
What’s more, the affiliate programs available in our offer are targeted at many locations. This openness also benefits subnetworks with publishers from different locations. Let’s also not forget that publishers often promote affiliate programs outside of their country of origin.
Excellent customer service
While other platforms focus on a very business approach, MyLead focuses on partnership in relationships. This is the principle we follow when dealing with publishers, advertisers and sub-affiliate networks. Our team is happy to negotiate individual terms of cooperation. When contacting the manager, we provide immediate approval of access to the campaign or assistance in selecting the best offers for the subnetwork, and if necessary, we offer the possibility of organizing a new campaign “on request”.
In-house anti-fraud system
Our internal anti-fraud system allows you to sift out self-generated leads. The advertiser thus receives the highest quality of traffic. The sub-affiliate network, on the other hand, gains information about frauds that may have gone unnoticed. Thanks to this, the network cooperating with us is able to react faster, cutting off its publisher operating in a manner inconsistent with the rules of the program, and thus improve the quality of the traffic provided.
The anti-fraud system we use was created in-house and is available only in the MyLead affiliate network.
