Hi Steve

Yes if done correctly and without to much B.S affiliate marketers can be a very good asset to any online business. They not only find many different ways to get your product noticed online but also into niche markets that maybe you had not considered. And all the vendor needs to worry about is ensuring that the affiliates are paid for each sale they make.

No sale no money is paid there really is not a better way to market a product for many small vendors.

Affiliate marketers will also do their share in making your business grow more by the day. They will contribute to your business’ visibility in the search engines and will make your sales grow.

Of course as an individual, you can also go so far when it comes to promoting and advertising your product. Affiliate marketers will be able to reach people who are beyond your reach. Come to think of it, if you are a vendor with a pool of affiliate marketers, it would be like having a team of people doing the promotions, advertising and selling for you.

Furthermore, you get free advertising! Payment for affiliate marketers will only be made if they are able to close a sale. In the process, the affiliate marketers will do the promotions for you.

The identification of the affiliate marketing industry as target for taxation is an unspoken testimony to the growth, popularity and financial enormity this industry represents. As states tread gingerly into this terrain questions of unconstitutional taxation will undoubtedly continue to arise. If juggling attempts with the constitution continue, the cancellation of additional affiliate programs may occur and the loss of affiliate income taxes will be felt. At this point it is hoped that corrective measures will be taken and the norm will be re-established. For the time being the states desperation to shrink their deficits may continue to tempt them to uncover taxation opportunities that sometimes don’t really exist. The affiliate marketing industry on the other hand will still thrive and grow as new programs develop and thus continue to prove to be a great way to earn money online.

Hi Pete and welcome to our blog…

Yes clickbank spend a lot of time looking out for not only their affiliates but also their merchants which can only lead to good things for them… As for the taxes it is very unfortunate for those that got caught up in all of this and hard their accounts closed.

For this reason that’s why it is always good to be diversified with different affiliate networks and even promotions.

Hi Mike… and welcome

Nobody is disputing that you need to pay tax when you generate an income from affiliate marketing… What was happening though is the affiliate networks were being asked to withhold money as tax payments, the result was they terminated anyone in those states from participating in any of their programs simply because they did not want to withhold money for tax.

Affiliate marketing profits should definitely count as income – after all, you are bringing in money for work that was performed. It’s as cut and dry as that! So, I would agree that taxes should be paid on any money brought in from affiliate marketing programs.

Thanks for the great post about ClickBank and taxes. Your post brought up a lot of interesting points that I haven’t thought about. I like how ClickBank isn’t just dumping states but adjusting how they operate.
