Awin
Make sure when looking for brands to partner with that they are within your niche and you stand behind them. Readers know when you are being ingenuine and it will only hurt your business in the long run.
It costs $5 USD to join, but you get that money back once you’ve made your first $5 in commission.
Some big brands that are on the Awin platform include Etsy, Hyatt, and HP.
Share a Sale
It is completely free to sign up and one of the more beginner-friendly affiliate marketing platforms, from what I have found.
ShareASale has hundreds of merchants to team up with, so no matter what your niche, you are sure to find a few that match your interests.

Commission Junction
It’s free to join and easy enough to get started.
I recommend waiting to join CJs until you have consistent traffic as you need to refer at least one sale within the first 180 days to stay with the program.
