Not too long ago I shared some tips for choosing the right affiliate programs. It turns, out a lot of you have thought of joining some but haven’t yet. Today I’m sharing a few of the big money affiliate programs that have worked for me.
Big Money: Affiliate Programs That Pay Bloggers!
*This post contains affiliate links
Grammarly
Alright, so the first merchant that I want to share with you is pretty much my favorite. Some of you might already know that English isn’t my first language. I first heard about Grammarly from another blogger. I ended up adding the application to my browser and started using it right away. The basics features are free to use, and you can upgrade to a premium account for even more features. After using it for a couple of days, I was hooked. Not only is Grammarly a big money program for bloggers, but it’s also a very useful tool. You can test out Grammarly for free. Trust me; you will be hooked!
Sale Commission: $20.00
Lead Commission $0.20
PicMonkey
If you are a blogger, then you already know all about PicMonkey! I use this tool for a good majority of my photos. It’s also the tool I refer to new bloggers. PicMonkey is free to use and has a lot of amazing features. I love using it so much that I signed up for membership two years ago. Sure, if you have the funds you can get Photoshop, but PicMonkey is very easy to use for someone like me, that doesn’t know how to use Photoshop.
Sale Commission: 50.00%
Aloha
Aloha is brand new to me. I recently joined this program, but I have not tried any of their products yet! Their referral bonus is very attractive, which is what led me to join their affiliate programs. If you love tea, you will love Aloha. They offer a broad range of delicious teas.
Bonus: They are currently offering Free Trial of Superfood Smoothie Kit! GO! (ended)
Sale Commission: 10.00%
Lead Commission $10.00
That’s just a few of the affiliate programs that pays bloggers.
Other Affiliate programs that I’m using (via Share A Sale)
Stella & Dot
Cents of Style
GlobeIn
BONJOUR JOLIE
StudioPress by Copyblogger Media
Zazzle
Mixbook
Gymboree, Crazy 8 & Janie and Jack: Not sure I wanted to share this one because I seriously spend WAY more money buying clothes for my kids than I make with them.
There you have it, top affiliate programs that pay bloggers. As I mentioned before, there is more, but these are the ones that I’m currently using.
Are you using affiliate programs on your blog/site? What are some of your favorite programs? If you are new to the affiliate program, check out my post on tips for picking the right one for you.

Amanda Love says
I signed up with a few but I’ve now pulled all affiliate ads off my blog. I like the clean look without all the ads at the side. Gymboree and Zulily were the ones that really paid for me. I miss the money but I can live without it. 🙂

I haven’t used any of these. I shy away from affiliates because I don’t know them, I guess. Some day I may give it a whirl.
Alaina Bullock says
I love this list! There are several on here that I already work with – and they happen to be my favorites! It’s amazing how much being an affiliate can bring in if the company is a good one!
Ashley says
Great info to have! Thanks for sharing!
Kristi Kirk Trent says
Psst. Your title is grammatically incorrect.
“Big Money: Affiliate Programs That Pays Bloggers!” should read: “Big Money: Affiliate Programs That Pay Bloggers!” Substitute “Pays” with “Pay.”) A plural subject (dogs, basketballs, Programs) takes a singular verb (growl, roll, pay), whereas a plural subject takes a plural verb.
Don’t worry. It’s a common mistake. 🙂
Marielle Altenor says
Oh no! Thank you for pointing it out! Updated it now!
Kathy Kenny Ngo says
I use some of these apps and I never even knew that you could actually earn from them. This is a piece of great news.

Holly @ Woman Tribune says
I really envy the bloggers out there who can make a significant amount of money with affiliate programs. I haven’t gotten it down quite as well yet, but I am a member of Grammarly’s affiliate program already. I am loving the sound of Aloha, too. Definitely worth learning more about.
