The affiliate program you join should have clear and brief terms. You know, you don’t want anything too lengthy and that are loaded with areas that will scare off most potential affiliates.
The terms should clearly state things such as offering residual commissions, point out their low tolerance for spam, any type of information that affiliate should be aware of.
Some affiliate programs don’t allow their products to be promoted through text links in emails so always be sure to read the terms before you decide to start promoting any affiliate products.
With the new FTC rules and regulations that were just implemented, be sure you understand the legal ramifications should you disregard any of the terms that you have agreed to uphold. Remember, this is your reputation on the line.
