# Step 2: Apply to Affiliate Programs

Affiliate programs let you promote the brands and products you already know and love—and naturally promote new brands you're interested in. They’re a great way to earn consistently on your content by sharing commissionable links or promo codes! These programs are often evergreen without a start and end date.
