Default What are affiliates

I am new to online poker so apologies if this is a dumb question, but what exactly are these affiliates I keep seeing mentioned on the forum? I get the impression that whatever they are they are not universially liked so I may draw some harsh responses but I am after just a description of what they are.

Thanks
Tsushima

poker affiliates=people that promote online poker casinos and get a reward for sending them players (usually 20-30% of the rake for as long as the players play). They can offer bonuses to players who open new accounts. There are several affiliates who post on 2+2, I'm one of them.

LOL. Do you really have 27 PMs? If so, that's crazy.

What are the advantage and disadvantages of being an affiliate and does it cost anything to be one?
