Not Just Another List
There are so many tools available today for home businesses that when we are searching the massive matrix of the web, it can often leave us confused and thinking that it is impossible to know what to do.
Affiliate marketing tools for beginners is something valuable to have for quick reference without having to look through dozens of places to understand what something is.
In the same way, it can benefit more seasoned marketers in that there are so many tools available that no one has seen or heard of them all.
That Is why I created this Affiliate Marketing Directory of Tools
Do You Need A Directory?
Affiliates need tools and resources in the competitive world of marketing today, so how do we know what tools we need? And how can we find out what is even available when the information is scattered everywhere?
I know for me, starting was frustrating as I looked for various services and tools and often spent a great deal of time doing so.
While this list is small, I am trying to make sure there are tools for many different areas of need when working from home on a computer.
I will update the list often and keep descriptions small and to the point of the companies listed here.
Affiliate Marketing, along with other types of online businesses, all require us to have, understand, and use various tools.

What Makes This Any Different?
You can find many top-ten and top-five lists all over the web for just about anything you want.
However, the listings often contain only products or services that a particular website is affiliated with and can earn commissions.
And if there are two-thousand choices, do you only want to know five of them?
It may very well be that the best fit for you is not on that list. Not because a business is not in the top-five or top-ten firms for that particular service, but because they have no affiliation with other websites.
This list is all that you see. There is nothing wrong with it, and many of these lists are very informative and can quickly get you to a provider for whatever it is you want.
While this is entirely understandable, and no one has a complete list of everything available, being able to find the best tool for you is what is most important.
I have my top five lists as well, but I also have directories in which more than 95% of the listings are for companies for which I have no affiliation.
When searching for something on a Search Engine, you may get back 456,000 results on the keyword you typed in the search box.
Most people only look at the top one or two listed, and those are now paid ads that are put in front of the most relevant results of your search.
However, when you are in a hurry or just from habit, your eyes look at the first listing and assume that is the number one result when in fact, that was most likely a paid advertisement.
Not only is Google continuously changing the rules to the game, if you do figure them out, line up with the stars just right, and rank high in the search results, you still may not make the first page due to the paid ads.
After all, they have to eat, right?
IT DOES NOT MAKE THEM THE BEST COMPANy for what you need. So when your search results are displayed, just pay attention. Perhaps the site with the paid ad is the best choice for you, and if so, great! Just know what you are looking at.
Here is an example of how a search result looks. On this one, I added the Ad where it identifies what type of effect you are seeing. And while there seems to be more and more of these taking up the top spots, they can be mixed into the results and not only on the top.
About 14,100,000 results (0.55 seconds)
Ad Neatfreaker.com Directory For Custom Closets – Neatfreakerneatfreaker.com › custom-closet-directory
Dec 16, 2019 – Welcome to the best Custom Closet Directory on the web. Here you can find many of the very best websites offering closet solutions as well as.
There are thousands of excellent companies in every area of business, yet for their lack of SEO conformability, or lack of money to pay for expensive ads, the do not show up in search results.
Many of these companies are far better than what pop’s up in the search results.
However, we are all conditioned to think otherwise and assume what we see must be the best. Sometimes this is true but not always the case.

I have affiliations with companies for which I mark “affiliate.” It merely means that if you choose to visit the site through my link, I may receive a commission if you make a purchase.
It costs you nothing extra, and you are never obligated to buy or sign up for anything.

Awesome list!! Very clean and organized, makes sense after seeing the site name 🙂
This is a great list filled with some really good sites. I already use quite a few of the sites that you have listed so I am excited to check out a few of the other ones to see how they will be able to help me out in the future. Definitely saving for future reference, thanks!!
Neatfreaker has quite a well laid down marketing contents that I believe can easily convince anyone..My own opinion is that I believe it would do them more good if they could just break down some of its trade lines into little understandable contents to enable easy and quicker understanding of its market lines.
Wow! This is a very comprehensive list of affiliate marketing tools, coming in very handy. Its amazing that the affiliate world has such rich easy to use resources that makes the journey easy. I really find snappa and canva very indispensable for the rich collection of images that really catch attention and delivers that professional look to a website. The fact that you can also get reviews for your websites from sitejabber is a game changer. I also find rank math very very helpful in creating my contents as it makes my SEO goals and ranking very very easy. For anyone interested in succeeding online this tools directory is a must have. Your observations about google and the placement of paid ads at the top of the search list has been a point of discussion with my team and we figure out that it also helps to place paid ads at intervals to boost the chances of organic traffic. Thanks for creating this directory you have just made my day
You are very welcome, and your gracious comments just made my day as well!
