Affiliate Programs

When it comes to monetizing your adult website, creating an affiliate program is a great way to do so. It allows independent affiliates to earn commissions by promoting your products or services. It also has the added benefit of driving traffic to your website and generating sales. 

To help you create an affiliate program that works for you and your business, Adult Site Broker will walk you through the best affiliate programs. We will also outline best practices for you and your website to help you get the most out of this strategy. 

What is an Adult Affiliate Program? 

We have previously discussed some of the best affiliate programs in the adult industry. To recap, affiliate marketing is the process by which website publishers, such as webmasters, content creators, or influencers, earn a commission by promoting a brand’s products or services.

It’s become a popular way for companies in the adult industry, including dating sites, cam sites, fetish sites, OnlyFans models, and sex toy sites. Adult companies expand their reach, and individuals can earn passive, scalable income online by promoting products or services they believe in.  

Why are they Beneficial for Adult Websites? 

Offering an affiliate program on your adult website provides a host of benefits. These include low setup costs, the ability to drive traffic, and the ability to generate sales by building trust as people buy through their favorite influencers’ or content creators’ affiliate links.  

Best Practices for Adult Website Affiliate Programs

To help get you started, we have set out some best practices for our adult affiliate program below: 

Stay Up-to-date on the Latest Software

Ensure you are up to date with the latest trends and affiliate software to help your affiliates succeed. 

Commission Rates

Your commission rates attract affiliates. Look at what the rest of the industry offers. Usually, between 5% and 20% per sale, and select a commission rate to attract the most affiliates. Paysites pay 50% and more.

Terms and Conditions

Ensure your affiliate program terms and conditions are clearly stated and fair for both youur company and your affiliates. 

Choose the Right Affiliates

Given the niche nature of adult affiliate marketing, choose affiliates that suit your brand and business needs. Such as working with sex-positive influencers for sex toys or dating sites, bloggers, or OnlyFans models to promote your porn tube sites 

Invest Time in Onboarding

The best way to get the most out of your affiliate program is to invest time in onboarding your new affiliates. Such as ensuring they have access to their affiliate link, access to the affiliate platform, and the right software and marketing tools to succeed.   

Maintain Open Communication

Even after onboarding, keeping an open line of communication helps the affiliate program run smoothly. 

Share Analytics

To help your affiliates succeed, share detailed analytics on which products are selling, their click-through and impression rates, sales, and total revenue earned. This allows them to optimize their content to better promote you and your adult website. A good affiliate platform should do this for you.

Incentivize Beyond Commission

From referral programs to friendly competitions and leaderboards where affiliates can earn prizes for the most monthly sales, offering your affiliates more ways to monetize beyond commission can help incentivize them to promote your products. 

Automate

Automated payouts on a weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly schedule, automated tracking for affiliate links and coupons, and intelligent affiliate rules can help automate your affiliate program so you can focus on other areas of your marketing and adult website.
