Q:  What are Info Products?

A:  "Info products" is the affiliate marketing shorthand for e-books and software.

Promoting info products is practically an industry itself.  Some affiliate marketers steer clear of promoting physical products or generating leads (two other popular forms of affiliate marketing), and stick exclusively to promoting info products because of info products' higher profit margins.

Info products usually mean e-books and software.  Info products usually revolve around a few basic themes or niches:

• Make money.
• Lose weight or dieting.
• Love.
• Sex.
• Entertainment.

Online ebooks are almost exclusively some type of "self-help" book, always non-fiction and never fiction.  Software usually revolves around the "make money" theme, and even more precisely, around the "get rich quick" sub-theme.

Clickbank and PayDomCom are two of the most popular affiliate programs that offer info products.  Clickbank is the premier info product affiliate marketing program, with PayDotCom increasingly eroding away at Clickbank's standing.

Info products are delivered on-line and are not available in any hard media (CD, DVD, etc.)
