When I first joined ShareASale, I really didn’t do anything with it because the whole platform was confusing to me at the time. Now that I have a little blogging experience under my belt and have worked with other affiliate companies, I kind of figured out where I should be finding links, and how to apply with the companies I wanted to promote.
I discovered that some of the companies and brands that are readily available on the platform offer incentives for working with them. For instance, they’ll pay you a certain amount to promote their current sales/deals on social networking sites and through blog posts. Some of their blog posts are pre-written and will be attached to the email for easy copy and paste. Just be sure to add a little bit to the post to help out your SEO since you don’t want the same exact blog post that someone else posted. Google doesn’t like that!
Make sure you have applied to ShareASale if you’re not already a member, and once approved, make sure to join the companies listed below.
These are some companies on ShareASale that pay you to promote with blog posts and give you affiliate referral bonuses to refer other bloggers to join with them.

After I joined these programs and shared a few posts, I am now sitting at a total of $332.50 earned overall. Not bad for very little work in my opinion. You’ll also need to earn $50 in order to be paid each month, but you can set this higher if you wish to wait for a big chunk. I know I don’t care to wait since every little bit of money helps out NOW.
I can’t say I’ve heard of this affiliate program before but I definitely have to check it out!! Being unable to work with bills piling up every little bit of money made helps. Thank you so much for the information! 🙂
This is a good way to earn money and promote products as well.

Very Cool Site… 1st time hearing about it, but it seems like a good way to earn some extra money.
I have signed up for one or two of those program but I need to be better about promoting them. Affiliates can be a great residual income if you remember to include the links 🙂

This is useful information. Sometimes people think they’re unable to make money, especially if they are at-home parents or unable to drive to work. Good stuff.

Thank you for sharing this!!! This is good to know!
I didn’t know One Kings Lane paid you to promote. I have had my account with them for a while and havent linked it anywhere because I wasn’t sure where to fit it in. Maybe I need to get my affiliate emails more often. I have a couple I have through there that I get a decent price for posting. Its a nice addition because I don’t seem to do as well as some with affiliate links.

ShareASale is a great affiliate program to work with. I actually am affiliated with a lot of companies through them.

I’m glad to see where the share a sale things are coming from… I have been seeing them a lot lately in links.
ShareASale is one of my favorites and probably one of my more consistent forms of income when it comes to blogging. I love how easy and versatile it is.

I’m part of Share A Sale as well but still trying to figure it all out. Thanks for this great list. I will have to check them out.

I know a few people that do utilize this program and really love it! I may have to look more into it!

Even though I have mostly veered away from affiliate programs, I have been affiliate marketer since 2004. I must say Shareasale is the best affiliate program around!

I have been checking on these types of programs. Thanks for this I will check on it. It would be nice to start making a little more money from my website.
I appreciate pre-written posts. However, the challenge is also how to make the work outstanding when there are several people catering to the same market.
I am signed up with a lot of merchants with Share A Sale and I love them. However, I am not signed up with several of the ones you listed. Heading off to check them out (via your referral links so hopefully you’ll make some extra spending money!) and probably sign up with a few. Thanks for sharing your list! I have a similar list on my blog (under “For Bloggers” tab) if you ever want to check it out.

Thanks, I’ll head over to your site and take a peek!
Wow! Thanks for writing this post. I made a account with SAS site but I really didn’t know how to make any kinds of money I tried several companies and made posts and promote them but not even a dollar I made. I will try it your way and I hope I am able to make atleast half of you.
Thanks again!
