No, affiliates are not The Gluten-Free Mall® employees and are considered independent contractors. As such they are subject to the tax laws that govern independent contractors for the state where they do business. We do not withhold taxes from affiliate earnings, and it is their responsibility to pay taxes on the money they earn as affiliates in our program.
By far the graphical banner links to our home page generate the most clicks and sales. The larger the banner the more clicks and sales it will generate. You can experiment with the various banners that we offer to see which one works best for your site.
Many studies have shown that the areas on Web pages that have the highest click through rates are located in the top-area of a site's home page, and that the top-right area may be the best position for the most click-throughs.
To maximize your affiliate revenue you can place multiple banners in different areas on your site. You are also able to create specific content such as blog posts, articles, recipes, etc and link them to specific products that are mentioned in that content! Social Media content is also a very effective way to generate a large audience!
