Definition of Affiliate marketing:


 * Affiliate marketing** is a marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more [|affiliates] for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate's marketing efforts. Examples include rewards sites, where users are rewarded with cash or gifts, for the completion of an offer, and the referral of others to the site. The industry has four core players: the merchant (also known as 'retailer' or 'brand'), the [|network], the publisher (also known as 'the affiliate'), and the customer. The market has grown in complexity to warrant a secondary tier of players, including affiliate management agencies, super-affiliates and specialized third parties [|vendors].

A Web 2.0 site gives its users the free choice to interact or collaborate with each other in a [|social media] dialogue as creators ([|prosumer]) of [|user-generated content] in a [|virtual community], in contrast to websites where users (consumer) are limited to the passive viewing of [|content] that was created for them. Examples of Web 2.0 include [|social-networking sites], [|blogs], [|wikis], [|video-sharing sites], [|hosted services], [|web applications], [|mashups] and [|folksonomies].
