Affiliate marketing involves promoting other people's products online, often through social media sites like Pinterest.

If someone makes a purchase after clicking on a link that you have directed them to, then you earn commission from the company selling the product.

Becca explained that she takes a photo of the product from the website and then uses SEO and keywords to make the post search friendly.
