Skimlinks

Skimlinks is a content monetization platform that helps online publishers earn revenue from their content by automatically affiliating product links. The platform works by identifying product mentions within a publisher's content and converting them into affiliate links. When a user clicks on one of these links and makes a purchase from the retailer, the publisher earns a commission.

Skimlinks focuses on automating the affiliate marketing process for publishers. Instead of manually joining individual affiliate programs for each retailer, publishers can use Skimlinks to access a large network of merchants.

The platform's core functionality includes:

• Automatic Link Affiliation: Identifying and affiliating product links within published content.
• Merchant Network: Providing access to a network of participating retailers and affiliate programs.
• Commission Tracking and Reporting: Tracking clicks and conversions to provide publishers with data on their earnings.
• Payment Processing: Handling commission payments to publishers.

Skimlinks primarily targets publishers such as bloggers, news websites, and online forums. The platform aims to simplify the process of affiliate marketing, allowing publishers to focus on creating content rather than managing individual affiliate relationships. It provides a single point of contact for managing multiple affiliate programs and tracking earnings across various retailers. Its business model is based on a commission split with publishers.
