I would suggest not deal with affiliating on your company website, but concentrate on making conversions for your services.
BUT! There are tons of ways to make it work great. It depends on what kind of website your company is running.
Example: You sell products for pregnant woman and after your conversion on your "Thank you page" show several offers like books or video-courses for new mothers
Another way if you want to be in internet marketing - set up a separate website for that in a related niche as your company + you will get a good hompage link in the future

Some affiliates can sell millions of dollars worth of products per month.
The real question.... is your website, shopping cart, product range, pricing, conversion rate and commission percentage worth it for a superaffiliate?
Just a warning... there are a lot of young, hungry, highly skilled, smart, well financed affiliates with the resources needed to rank quickly for very competitive terms. Once they get a foothold in your space the level of competition could go up several notches.
Where will that put you if you decide not to support affiliates?

What's the best way to go about making Duplicate Content Pages on my domain for affiliates?
Hello, I would like to make a bunch of duplicate pages of my site's Home Page, that way affiliates of mine can have a page of their own with links specialized to themselves littered throughout the page. What's the best practice going about this without jeopardizing domain authority from tons of duplicate content signals firing off?

Ecommerce affiliate marketing comparison engine
Does anyone know if there is such a thing as an ecommerce comparison platform for affiliate programs? Something that would say, take a particular product, and let the user compare between Amazon, eBay, Walmart (all would be through affiliate programs). Does such a thing exist? Or is such a thing even feasible? oops, sorry for multiple posts, please let me know if i can delete somehow

Anyone Have Any Experience With Catch Marketing?
I was recently approached by Catch Marketing about a service they provide that uses a product data feed to create hundreds of pages with "unique" (algorithm generated) content on a subdomain of a website targeting long-tail keywords not already driving traffic to the site. It's an affiliate type setup with a commission-based fee structure. Admittedly not the most elegant solution to driving long-tail keyword traffic but my company is short on resources and long on revenue goals. I'm not really interested in hearing about creating awesome unique content written by a human as the better solution here; although I understand and aspire to those ideals the reality is that I have 60,000 products to market and I'm the only one who writes product content - after I tend to my other responsibilities. Has anyone used or heard of this service? Your feedback appreciated.
