How Can Companies give you an iPod Touch for free?

I imagine that you are wondering just how this can work, how can these companies afford to give away a free ipod, free playstation 3, free wii or free HDTV? Well now i will explain to you how



This works on the basis of affliate marketing, these companies get paid for everyone who signs up for an offer, by the respective offer company, and that is how they pay for the free gifts. It is important to know that the freebie sites make a profit from this.



They also get paid for advertising the companies that are in the offers avaliable, making it a profitable situation for them.



The companies that are being advertised are having to resort to this kind of advertising because this seems to be a new and upcoming way of advertising, they are not getting noticed in magazines and on TV, so they are trying new methods.

Everybody Wins

 

A bigger breakdown of this system is:

  1. You sign up for a free trial with a company
  2. That particular company then pays a pre-agreed fee for every referral/sign up from the reward website
  3. You are getting a free iPod Touch, which costs £199-£300
  4. You need to get just 5 referrals to get your free iPod Touch
  5. The company then pays the reward site once you have referred 5 people to them via your link
  6. The Reward site gives you a iPod Touch with the money they made
  7. The remaining money is all profit for the freebie site.
