Healthy marketing for your affiliate network

Healthy marketing for your affiliate network

Affiliate programs that were created three to five years ago and managed to survive are now doing relatively well with the base of affiliates. Due to the crazy variety of affiliate programs, many scam stories and fierce market dynamics, 99% of new networks close in the first six months. They don’t have a media resource, they don’t have good marketing, and as a result, they don’t have affs. And how to attract publishers?

In the previous part of this series, we talked about launching our affiliate program in the gambling vertical, you can read it here. Today we will plunge into a completely different industry – crypto. There are a lot of features for creating an affiliate network in this niche.
