All this means is you post links to products on your blog, your readers click the link and you get a small commission if they buy from that link.
A lot off times the links will have a 30 day cookie period meaning that if the reader clicks your link but doesn’t buy at that time it will remember them for 30 days and if they make a purchase within that 30 day time period you will still receive the common for that sale!
