Skimlinks.com - Outsourcing Affiliate Marketing

Skimlinks is a service that is geared towards publishers who are looking into a viable approach to affiliate marketing. Basically, clients focus on their community and the content that they want to get across, while the company takes care of merchant management and tasks such as network synchronization and the addition of links.

In order to use this system, the client has to add the skimlinks plug-in to his site, and content links which are created from that point onwards are automatically turned into affiliate links. If the user ends up making an actual purchase by following any of them, then a commission is paid to the client.

So far, the system is a publisher-only service, and merchants are not offered direct services. They can, however, request to be added to any existing program to become part of the system. It will be quite interesting to see if services geared solely towards merchants are implemented in the future. For the time being, this site stands as an interesting resource for publishers wishing to maximize revenue via affiliate programs which are easy to implement and put into practice.

'Outsource your affiliate marketing and generate revenue from your content easily.'

It offers any publisher added outreach and visibility.

Will support for merchants be eventually introduced?
