All courses are run by Hall of Fame Chefs and allow members to build their way from beginner up to advanced cooking techniques.
If you are in the kitchen niche you would probably not be able to base an affiliate program on this one however there are obvious add on opportunities for all spectrums of cooking levels and needs.

Amazon Associates
Alternatively, should you wish to set up your site up with a range from a few different brands or companies on the same site then you can do so via Amazon. Amazon provides access to a good range of kitchen related products and has a fairly good affiliate program as well. So if you wish, join the Amazon Associates program, locate the best products relevant to your site within Amazon itself and you can post links on your own site as per below:
Amazon's commission rates are not too bad and some prefer this avenue due to the sheer amount of traffic and trustworthiness that comes with a company site of this size.
How to find your own affiliate programs
As stated earlier, by outlining the sites above I have really just tried to give you a good cross section of the types of programs that are out there by listing the really good ones in each ‘category'. That does not mean that you cannot find affiliate programs that better suit what it is that you are trying to do within this space especially as I could never even begin to cover every kitchen related requirement or sub niche in the one post. Luckily for us, there is a simple way to find these programs online.
All you need to do is enter “affiliate: niche type” into your search engine (substituting ‘niche type‘ for whatever product it is that you are choosing to sell).
There are kitchen related affiliate programs for everything else that we have listed at the top of this page as well – you will just need to have a look around until you find one or two that suit your site. Once you have completed your searches, you can look through and find programs that:
- Relate to your niche/problems that you are solving.
- Have quality products – your brand can be severely damaged if you promote poor quality products.
- Have solid payment and customer service arrangement.
- Pay decent commissions.
- Have good testimonials covering commission payouts and quality of product.
In most cases, you will need to apply for the program before you are allowed to promote their products – don’t take this step lightly or you will be rejected. Affiliate programs will generally want to know:
- Your website name.
- Traffic levels.
- Why you want to join – (so I can make money by selling your cutlery is unfortunately not generally a good enough answer).
- How you plan to promote their products.
FAQ
What can you sell within the kitchen niche?
The online sale of kitchenware is a popular option with many options for homemakers, renovators and professional interior designers alike. Products that can be sold within this niche include appliances, furniture, tableware, dinnerware, table linen and even kitchens themselves.

I hope it has been helpful for you as you commence your own kitchen or cooking based affiliate marketing business and as usual, please do not hesitate to comment below if you have any questions, need some advice or have any experiences to share.

Introducing Wealthy Affiliate, My #1 Recommendation for Setting Up Your Own Online Business
When I started, I knew I wanted to work online, but had absolutely no idea where to begin! You see I had watched friends of mine run a sales party to sell essential oils and someone asked if they could just sell them online?
Then, as I sat on the bus heading into my office job, I started to wonder if I could do just that, sell essential oils online.
Anything to stop having to catch this bus to and from work every day right!
The trouble was, as I mentioned above, I had no idea how to even start.
So of course I started to look around online and found all these courses! They all promised me riches then took my money but left me with no riches!
Then I stumbled across the program that didn’t promise me riches, but told me it could help me get started even with no experience!
So I did that, joined Wealthy Affiliate that was it, and the rest as they say, is history!
But it doesn’t come without work!
That is the key here! I began on their starter membership and did the training! I then joined as a member and did some more training!
Each night after work, I would do a little more, then a little more.
And to cut a long story short, after 10 months I realized I didn’t really like writing about essential oils, so I sold the site for about $2000. But I had learned so much that I started another – about fishing and camping!
Then, after 18 months (by which time it had earned me close to $10k), I was offered $17k for the site, so I sold it too.
Now, through my travel blog, I’ve been able to fund my passion for travel and explore different places around the world.
In the past few months, I’ve been fortunate enough to travel to some amazing destinations, including Bali, Los Angeles, Dallas, Vancouver and Las Vegas.
The success of my travel blog has allowed me to fully fund my travels and explore new destinations with my family.

The kitchen to me is the heart of the home. As somebody who enjoys cooking, I do spend a lot of time in the kitchen, which means that having the right equipment, makes a big difference. I am always looking at what is available, so it is great to find these affiliate programs for kitchens and kitchenware, that I might even be able to promote some of the products that I like. Thanks for sharing all these possibilities.
My pleasure Line – Glad it was helpful
Paul
Thank you for giving us these suggestions about the affiliate programs we can join in the kitchen niche. So far, I have only joined one, the Nisbets program. And I haven’t had any results, neither god nor bad, so I haven’t formed an opinion about them. But I will join a couple more and see which works best.
Thanks Ann – let me know how you go
Paul
