An Affiliate Network connects companies with online publishers (such as bloggers!), allowing them to earn a commission through a link. If a reader clicks your affiliate link and makes a purchase, you’re going to make some money from it.
Related content: Click here (opens in new tab) to read my monetization guide about affiliate links! It’s where I go through all the options in detail.
Affiliate Networks are easy to join! All you have to do is fill out a form.
In order to get accepted into a particular brand’s Affiliate Program, you’ll have to apply. If you have a relevant, quality website that generates traffic, you generally have a good chance of getting accepted into their affiliate program and start earning a commission.
Below is a list of the most popular Affiliate Networks and their top 100 Affiliate Programs. They’re especially great for fashion, beauty, and lifestyle bloggers!
In order to be able to view the links below, you’ll need to be a member of the Affiliate Network.

Hi there,
Thank you for this website. It has been the greatest help for me. Can you please advise how you filled the tax form from LinkShare it is making me choose U.S. codes when I’m in Canada.
Many thanks!
There should be a separate form for international publishers! If not, let me know and I’ll try to help.
Hi, great article, made my day so much info in one place!! I have used Showcase Beauty’s program and made quite a bit from it -definitely worth including in your list: https://www.showcasebeauty.com/media/images/showcase/swcse_mediapack.pdf

Helpful blog post
Love! Love! Love! This post I’ve learned so much within this post and your other post as well. Thanks for all the informative info. Can’t wait to start my blog soon
Thanks so much! Good luck with your blog. 🙂
Great post, thank you for the information. I’m trying to contact more brands to get samples from them so I can write blog posts. I know that the affiliate links are great but unless I have a samples I can’t really do anything. What will be your suggestion?
Thank you
Thanks! You can always promote the products you already have or purchase and showcase them as favorites. If you have a small following, it might be hard to collaborate with the big brands, but consider smaller companies as well. They might not all have affiliate programs but it can help your blog and you can work your way up. I noticed you have a beautiful Instagram, so I would definitely focus on growing that account to get on brands’ radar. Good luck!
Thank you for the links! I am starting my retail shop and this is very helpful!
I am planning to run a blog that offers advice for aspiring models, are there any affiliate programs for such blog?
Please help
My blog is fairly new and I haven’t started any affiliate programs yet, but definitely want to in the future. In the meantime, how do I talk about brand names if I’m not in their affiliate program? Is that ok to do?
Thanks
Aimee
Yes, you can mention any brands you want (after all, it’s free publicity for them!). You can always change your links once you join the programs and get your affiliate links.
Thanks for a nice job. I am currently promoting some of the affiliate programs listed here and making a few dollars from them. But I must say that making money from affiliate programs is not rocket science; it requires hard work and perseverance. Affiliate marketing keeps evolving daily and any serious affiliate should be ready to change tactics and invest time and money in order to beat the competition.
You may need some traffic (but a few traffic is enough to start with) to get guaranteed success especially if the traffic is targeted. Whatever be the case, I have so much faith in affiliate marketing because of the relative success it has given me in the area of making money online.
Thanks once again. Do have a pleasant day.
These are some really great programs to start with, if they fit in your niche. AWeber, for instance, has a good pay out, but if your blog readers aren’t interested in building an email list, you’re not going to make any sales by promoting it. That’s why I love that you’ve also included ShareASale – no matter what niche you’re in, you’ll find something excellent to promote!
Comment *Hi.. I would like to know more about affiliate marketing.
I wrote a long post about affiliate marketing, so definitely check it out! Here’s the link: https://suzanarose.com/affiliate-links-bloggers-rstyle-shopstyle-linkshare/
Hello! Thanks for this super post. I tried to join to rent the runway program, but this is only by recommendation 🙁
Could you recommend us in order to apply this program? Thank you again!
A big hug,
Pattz.
This was so helpful! Thank you!
I have a question for you though – does CJ still work with lululemon? I don’t see them listed on the CJ site. If not, do you know any affiliate networks who do work with lululemon?
Thanks!
I’m not longer on CJ so I couldn’t tell you, but feel free to reach out to Lululemon and ask them about their affiliate program. I’ve done this in the past with retailers and most often, you’ll get a response!
Hi I’m just curious “ I used to make over $5,000 + …”
Did you quite affiliate or you are not making money anymore ?
Hi Lia! I never said “I used to” so you must have misread. I’m still in the same boat. 🙂
Thanks so much, absolutely super article and stunning website! Will be checking in for more info along my blogging journey xx
Thank you.
I’m living in Korea. I am also learning affiliate marketing. I surfed the web and found your blog. I got your blog inspired to discover an oasis in the desert.
Thank you so much for this! I have questions. I don’t see some merchants you mentioned for Shareasale and Linkshare. Why is that? And how do you view private merchants with LinkShare?
Awesome dear,,, This Article is so helpful for me. I was searching for some affiliate programmes for my website and your article is really amazing. I found it so helpful for me at all because you cover each and every source of affiliate programmes so beautifully.
