Below is a short list of different types of adult affiliate programs. You should visit each sponsor for complete explanations about their programs:

Raw
The sponsor pays you each time a surfer clicks on a link to the sponsor’s site. If the same surfer clicks on a link twice, you’ll get paid twice.

Unique
Sponsor pays each time a “unique” surfer clicks on a link to the sponsor. Unique is defined as a surfer that hasn’t been to the sponsor’s site from you or anyone else for a specified period of time. If the same surfer clicks on a link twice, you’ll get paid once.

Blind Links
You use whatever misleading text or links you can to get the surfer to click on the link to the sponsor. This isn’t allowed by all sponsors and you should pay attention to Sponsor’s terms and conditions.

Per Impression
You get paid according to how many times the sponsors advertisement gets seen on your page.

Per Sign Up
You’re paid when the surfer signs up. It’s a one time payment. This is mostly used these days and I would recommend you start with this type of sponsorship.

Partnership
The sponsor pays you a percentage of what the surfer pays whenever they pay for membership/access to the site. It pays each and every time the surfer renews their membership.

Email
Pays per verified email address. A surfer enters their email address and the sponsor sends a confirming email. When the surfer responds to the email from the surfer, you get paid.

Commission
You earn a percentage based on how much a surfer spends at a sponsor site. This is typically a sextoys store.
