Previously on this blog I’ve bemoaned the lack of new affiliates. A few potential reasons for this: barriers to entry are higher than they used to be; more merchants so affiliates are spread more thinly; it’s harder to make money than it used to be.
However, something else to consider. 5 years ago, tech savvy entrepreneurs became affiliates. Are they now developing apps instead?
Cost of entry is lower, money earned comes through quicker and more transparently. Something for networks, agencies and merchants to consider?
