The reason is very simple and that is the lucrative market available on the globe. People are coming online to research or find health related information and since they find health care products at significantly low price, they get lured to buy those products online rather going to the physical pharmacy and wasting their time as well as money. Genuine online pharmacies or online health stores provides same products that are available in physical stores at cheap price. So for affiliates there is a huge market to earn money with health affiliate programs where affiliates can get commission ranging from 10% to 50% of product price.
More are the options more will be the confusion – Which Health Affiliate Programs are best? Which affiliate programs are genuine? Who will provide highest Commission? Many such questions would be running in a mind of affiliate and we hope this article will help you up to some extent.
First of all you as an affiliate have to decide which market you want to target – natural products, Rx products, sexual health products, weight loss products. Sexual health products (Viagra, Cialis) and weight loss products (Reductil, Xenical, Proactol, Hoodia) are one of the highest selling products on internet and so are their affiliate programs - sexual Health Affiliate Programs and weight loss affiliate programs. Certainly you will get good amount of competition if you are trying to promote sexual health or weight loss products, so if you are new you can start with other products like women’s sexual health (Intrinsa) or smoking cessation (Champix) where you will find less competition. If you are well versed with Internet marketing techniques you can directly start with those products.
Once decided with the target market, you need to focus on websites providing those products and their affiliate programs. Checking for products is very necessary as you may find many generic version of products which are either not allowed or sometimes may not sold as much as brand products (you may find many generic version of Viagra, but they are not sold as much as Viagra is getting sold and the simple reason to it is the trust build on brand Viagra). Thus always prefer online stores providing brand products or brand as well as generic products but never prefer those selling only generic products. Apart from getting involved in genuine business, the added advantage of preferring brand products is that you usually get more commission on brand products compared to generic products and their conversion rate is also very high.
Find out legal information of the online store. It may be a possibility that online stores selling pharmaceutical products today may not be in existence tomorrow. So always ask for their legal information and try to get as much information as possible like their physical existence, their registration number, their phone number, from where they ship the products, etc. from their website and affiliate manager.

Usually affiliates make mistakes by getting lured seeking percentage commission value of an affiliate programs. There are many online health care stores claiming to give you commission up to 50% or even more. But always try to find out the actual commission value instead of commission percentage value. Calculate the commission value you will earn by selling one product and compare this with others. For example there can be two genuine online health care stores A & B selling two different products. Store A provides 50% commission selling generic product priced at $50 so commission you earn is $25. However Store B provides 20% commission selling brand products priced at $150 so the commission you earn with Store B is $30. Also the conversion rate of brand products is always higher compared to generic products.
The above factors would be visible to you before joining any affiliate program and thus you can make a smart choice of working with good and genuine Health Affiliate Programs using above factors.
If you find all the above factors good, sign up with them work with them and see what banners and promotional tools they provide. Find out how affiliate manager interacts with you. See what is the response time from affiliate team? Are they providing payments on time? Write about them and let other know about their affiliate program. If they are good let other know about their positive points if you find them bad complain about them.
