Independent survey highlights the maturation of affiliate marketing and growing opportunities for advertisers and publishers.

Forrester developed a hypothesis that affiliate marketing has become a mainstream way for advertisers to reach their customers, with significant impact on how both advertisers and publishers approach the affiliate opportunity.
