How it works?

affiliate program solution live demo

In Short

  1. We set up and host your affiliate program. Your affiliate program website will include whatever content you choose, and will describe your affiliate program in detail for potential affiliates.
  2. Your affiliates will interact only with this affiliate-program website, where they will find your ad code, see their comprehensive reports, and contact you if necessary.
  3. You track and manage your affiliates through your manager account on AffiliateHarvest.com, where you are in control of everything (affiliates, settings, payments & rates, your eCommerce website banners, reports).

Affiliates

"Affiliates" are the partners of your eCommerce website.

  • Your affiliates interact only with your affiliate-program website.
  • When an affiliate is applying for your program, you must confirm his email address and/or wait for your confirmation, depending on your account preferences.
  • From their accounts on your program website, approved affiliates can:
    • Find code for the banners and text links of your eCommerce website.
    • View comprehensive real-time reports of their affiliate activity.
    • Ask for payment once they have fulfilled your affiliate program minimum.
    • Contact you on any matter.
  • To see an example how your affiliate program website would look like, have a look at our own affiliate program website, powered by the affiliateharvest.com platform.

Managers

"Managers" are eCommerce website owners who run an affiliate program powered by us. (you)

  • Affiliate tracking takes place on AffiliateHarvest.com, where managers (you) have a manager account.
  • When an affiliate is applying for your program, he must confirm his email address before you can approve him.

    • Upload and manage their advertising materials.
    • Manage affiliates: Approve/Reject new applications. Change affiliate details (i.e. Rates). Write Emails.
    • Approve/Reject Leads and/or Sales.
    • View real-time aggregate and affiliate-specific reports, including ad impressions, clicks, leads, and sales. Our reporting displays GeoIP data as well, so that you know not only the IP of each event, but also to which country it maps to.

Working Principles & Platform Integration

  • Ads on all affiliate websites for all managers are served via our servers, and impressions are counted.
  • When a web-surfer clicks an ad placed on one of our managers' affiliate websites, he will be redirected to our servers, where a 30-day cookie will be implanted. Next, without even noticing that he visited our servers, the surfer will be redirected to the ad-specific URL (each ad has its own target URL).
  • If the payment model includes a PPC component, the affiliate will be credited with the click.
  • Simple Integration:All that is required for a full Integration of your eCommerce website with our platform is a single <img> element in your thank you page!
  • We also require that you create a dedicated email box from your eCommerce domain that will be used solely with your AffiliateHarvest.com-powered affiliate program.

More Benefits

  • When using other promotion methods like PPC, your ads will appear on your publishers' websites in dynamic form (javascript etc'), and will not be followed by the various search engines. When a user clicks one of your ads served by AffiliateHarvest.com, we return a 301 "permanently moved" response, so that search engine count the link on your publisher's website as a "vote" for your target URL.

Even if your affiliates are not generating sales revenues, you will earn extra additional traffic because they place your links on their websites.
