Hello there Sea Changers. Welcome back to my series of program lists to assist those of you looking to fund your sea change with affiliate marketing. Today we are going to take a wander into the diet and lifestyle niche with a look at my best 10 Vegan Affiliate Programs to fund your lifestyle this year. Interest in the Vegan niche is growing online and with a little work, could be one that turns out to become quite lucrative as an online business.

Before we begin however, I am conscious that there are a number of different areas or sub niches within this subject hence the quantity of affiliate programs to choose from may be just as large. So how have I picked my best 10? Well… I really just wanted to give you a good cross section of what is out there so I did some searching around and checked a few out and chose them by looking at:

• What they offer
• Commission rates
• Payment terms
• Cookie duration
• Application processes
• Affiliate/Marketing materials provided

Before we start however, let’s have a look at what I mean by the term ‘vegan’ and how it can be incorporated within an affiliate marketing website…

What do we mean by vegan?

As I have mentioned above, there is quite a lot that we could look into when it comes to making money online with veganism and/or the vegan lifestyle – which is generally looking at those who choose to abstain from the use of animal products within their daily lives. So for this post, I have tried to cover a good cross section across vegan related sites covering:

• Vegan food/recipes
• Vegan clothing
• Vegan lifestyle
• Vegan supplements
• Vegan cosmetics

And of course anything else you can think of when it comes to veganism… So, if you are looking to set up an online business in this space, let’s check them out below.

What can affiliate marketers promote?

There are essentially no real barriers to what affiliate marketers can promote when it comes to vegan related products. There are however some things to be aware of as you run your eye over vegan affiliate program possibilities that may suit your site. These are:

1. Know your audience, some are looking for specifics and want the best whilst others are hoping to just get their products on a budget. Choose your affiliate sites accordingly.
2. Those living a strict vegan lifestyle will not take risks if they don’t trust you or your affiliate site. Make sure the programs you choose are reputable and have good recourse options if the purchaser is not happy.
3. Those purchasing for a family members, or are new to the whole vegan thing will need to know exactly what they need and that the products you are promoting will fit in with their daily needs. Make sure your programs can provide the products to back up the information that you are covering.

That said, stats show that people will spend money on vegan products online if it can make their lives easier so as long as you are meeting their needs and solving problems, then you are on the right track. And to give you a boost, let’s have a look at 10 programs that I have found below:

1. The Vegan Kind Supermarket

The Vegan Kind Supermarket is a massive UK based vegan site offering a great range of products – in fact, products to cover absolutely every aspect of vegan’s daily life. There is so much there that we could not even begin to cover everything here but their main categories include:

• Food and Drink
• Health and Beauty
• Household
• Gifts and Accessories
• Ethical fashion
• Pets
• Eco Living
• Books

This is a great site to base an affiliate marketing business around – especially if you are aiming centre on the generalist vegan related niche.

Added to this massive array of above – literally an entire supermarket’s worth of products – is their subscription service. This allows customers to set up a monthly delivery of vegan staples delivered to their door. Shoppers can search by requirements or brand and there is also a great range of recipes, meal ideas and a blog.

• dietary supplements (vitamins, minerals and herbs),
• hard-to-find specialty foods,
• organic body and personal care products,

This list above probably doesn’t do the site justice but all in all, there are so many vegan related products here that it would make a great one to base your vegan related affiliate marketing business around.

5. Nutriciously

Nutriciously is an all encompassing site aimed at assisting those who are looking to transition into a vegan lifestyle. Their site does appear to be aimed at this outcome first and sales second with most products, e-books, recipes and programs offered free of charge. Their saleable product range appears to be based a small range of e-books and guides.

As above, you are probably not going to make a lot of money from this site however I see it as a must add to any niche aimed at the Vegan lifestyle or assisting those new to veganism. There is so much here to assist in terms of reader information, blog post ideas and obviously the promotion of their programs and e-Books.

8. Vessi Footwear

Now, if I am being honest with this next one, I am not sure if Vessi Footwear is a great product that just happens to be Vegan or a Vegan product that just happens to be pretty good. Anyway, Vessi Footwear offers a small range of “110% waterproof”, lightweight sneakers and running shoes made from their patented Flashknit material and are animal and chemical free as well as ethically produced.

Obviously as a small site it could not sustain a vegan based online business on its own however, as with many of the above, it would make a great addition to any vegan general, fitness or lifestyle niche as well as any other clothing or outdoors type arrangement.

Commission Rate: 10%

Payment Terms: Monthly

Cookie Duration: 30 days

Application required?: Yes, Vessi Footwear’s affiliate program is managed by Share-A-Sale. You will be required to apply for an account then for the Vessi Footwear affiliate program. You will need to enter personal and website information as well as promotional plans and platforms to be used.

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 vegan 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.

FAQ

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 vegan 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 vegan 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 – there is even a vegan travel program there – wow. 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 vegan snack bars is unfortunately not generally a good enough answer).
• How you plan to promote their products.

Conclusion

So… There are 10 of the best vegan affiliate programs to work with this year. I hope it has been helpful for you as you commence your own vegan 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. Oh, and especially comment if you have any experience with these, or any other programs as well.

Until next time

Have fun
