Talk about a different kind of affiliate program. Imagekind, through Share-A Sale, offers an affiliate program where people can purchase images instead of other types of programs. Frankly, I was surprised by it, and I like the idea so much that I’ve signed on as an affiliate, and at some point I’ll be adding a block ad of some kind to my sidebar.
Imagekind allows people to post their images on their site for purchase, and if you, as an affiliate, get people to go to the site, then you get a piece of their commissions for sales of their images. Because the prices vary so drastically on this site, believe it or not, you could make a commission off an image anywhere from $10 to $10,000; yup, that wide a range. I’m just imagining someone purchasing a print of that magnitude and being able to get a piece of that; nice!
You can go through the gallery and select images that you like and market those specific images. For instance, here’s one that I absolutely love, though I’ll probably never make it to France; click on it if you’d like to purchase it:
Of course they offer banner ads like what you see below, but there’s more. By joining this program, there are other programs you can add to the mix. For instance, Random House publishers is someone you can market for, along with Electronic Boutique, Rugman, Ace Hardware, and about a hundred others.
Anyway, this is another affiliate that adds some diversity to the norm of affiliate programs, and I think it will add a new quality to my blog site. At least I hope so.
