Turning blogging connections into a passive income stream with Get Blogged’s affiliate programme

Get Blogged is a marketplace platform where brands come to find bloggers and influencers to help promote their products and services. Whilst Get Blogged already has a steady stream of brands and campaigns, we operate an affiliate programme to help grow the number of brands and opportunities on our marketplace.

So, with that said, every blogger who joins Get Blogged is issued with a referral link and the opportunity to get paid commission whilst helping us grow our brand community.

Forget those affiliate schemes that only pay out once, or where the commission rate drops after the first sale. The Get Blogged scheme aims to provide affiliates with an income for the life of the brand.

So, in practical terms that means that there are various commission triggers over the brand lifecycle explained below:

Get Blogged Affiliate Plans

How does the Get Blogged affiliate scheme work?

Everyone starts on Plan 5, which would work as follows:

1. You refer a brand that signs up to Get Blogged for free and then verifies their email address (that’s your first £5 earned.)
2. The referred brand creates a campaign for free, then Get Blogged approves it and it gets advertised in the Get Blogged Marketplace (that’s another £5 earned.)
3. The referred brand hires a blogger and you earn 5% of the amount the brand paid the blogger. (For example, if the brand paid the blogger £100, you earn £5.)

But the opportunity to earn doesn’t end there. Brands hire an average of 2 bloggers per campaign, so in the example above, you would have earned £20 from that one brand referral.

The real magic happens when the brand comes back to run more campaigns and collaborate with more bloggers over a longer period of time.

We have an incredible retention rate for brands; they use Get Blogged for an average of 6 – 9 months of the first year they sign up. Also, brands typically increase their budgets month after month once they realise how incredible blogger marketing is.

How this blogger earned over £1.2k from one brand referral

In September 2021, our savvy affiliate decided to leverage their existing brand partnerships and referred a brand to Get Blogged. This simple action led to a fantastic outcome that keeps giving – £1270 in commissions and counting!

But let’s break down exactly how this happened.

As you’ve discovered above, Get Blogged operates an outstandingly generous commission plan. The moment the affiliate’s referred brand created an account, they started earning money. But the earning potential didn’t stop there. Each time the brand launched a campaign or collaborated with bloggers, our affiliate continued to earn a commission.

This brand was no one-hit-wonder. So far they have run an impressive 43 campaigns on Get Blogged, collaborating with 138 bloggers. This ongoing activity set up a continuous flow of commissions to our affiliate’s pocket month after month.

The key takeaway here is that with Get Blogged’s affiliate programme, you’re not just making a quick buck. You’re building a long-term income stream. It’s like planting a seed and watching it grow into a money tree!

Here’s a breakdown of how the affiliate commission was earnt during 2022 and 2023:

Because I love a table, this is a breakdown of how the commission events contributed to the overall earnings for this one affiliate who is on Plan 5:

WHAT IS THE GET BLOGGED AFFILIATE SCHEME?

We operate generous commission plans which means you can make money upfront and over the lifetime of a brand signup. As soon as the brand user you have sent to Get Blogged creates an account, you earn a commission. It doesn’t stop there! You continue to earn commission on each campaign they list, and each hire the brand completes. Most of the brands using Get Blogged go on to create multiple campaigns and will, on average, hire 2+ bloggers per campaign… month after month! This means you can build an income stream that pays out over the long term.

Why the Get Blogged affiliate scheme is different

Forget those affiliate schemes that only pay out once, or where the commission rate drops after the first sale. The Get Blogged scheme aims to provide affiliates with an income for the life of the brand.

So, in practical terms that means that there are various commission triggers over the brand lifecycle explained below:

Get Blogged Affiliate Plans

How does the Get Blogged affiliate scheme work?

Everyone starts on Plan 5, which would work as follows:

1. Affiliate refers a brand who signs up to Get Blogged for free then verifies their email address (£2.50 earned.)
2. The referred brand creates a blogging job for free, then Get Blogged approves it and it gets advertised in the Get Blogged Marketplace (another £5.00 earned.)
3. The referred brand hires a blogger and the affiliate earns 10% of the amount the brand paid the blogger. (For example, if the brand paid the blogger £100, the affiliate earns £10.00.)

But it doesn’t end there. Brands hire an average of 3 bloggers per blogging job, so in the example above, the average affiliate would have earned £25 from that one brand.

OK, OK, I realise I am not selling it YET. But read on…

The magic happens when the brand comes back to post more jobs and hire more bloggers over a number of months.

We have an incredible retention rate for brands; they use Get Blogged between 6 – 9 months of the first year they sign up. That’s not all, because brands typically increase their budgets month after month once they realise how incredible blogger marketing can be as a tactic for increasing business.

That’s what I am here to show to in this amazing case study.

How one blogger affiliate earned over £600 from one brand referral

The case study we have here is an incredible story of one blogger who referred just one brand. The brand has been using Get Blogged for over 8 months now to help grow their business and there is no sign of stopping.

We work closely with this brand (and most brands for that matter,) to bring campaign inspiration and authentic bloggers their way. The brand we’ve highlighted here typically posts around 5 or 6 new campaigns a month, then hires between 6 and 10 bloggers from those campaigns.

Here’s a breakdown of how the affiliate commission was earnt between Aug 21 and March 22:

This is a breakdown of how the commission events contributed to the overall earnings for this one affiliate who is on Plan 10:

We caught up with the affiliate and asked them how they referred this particular brand (names are not disclosed as requested by the affiliate):

For total transparency, and because we love a table, here’s how the commission built up over those 8 months:

This affiliate didn’t stop with the one brand referral, they built a simple system to convert their blogging clients to a Get Blogged clients, and it’s building an income stream that continues to pay out as mentioned below:
