"for products you might already use, go to the homepage page or dashboard and check to see if there’s an affiliate program" Great advice Peter, and how smart of you to be new to Medium and recognizing the benefit of using affiliate links so soon. It took me some time to start thinking seriously in that direction, even with a little previous experience. But the concept works for anything you sale, promote, or represent outside of Medium. When you really think about it, how cool is that? Since this is your thing, be sure to take a peek at my "Let's Get Paid" pub for some more useful tips on the topic. Nice work dude :-)
