How to Start an Affiliate Program That’s Actually Successful

from above article:

"

Disadvantages of an in-house affiliate program:

• Payment and commissions. Affiliate networks normally have a finance team that arranges invoicing and payment. When running in-house, you will be ultimately responsible for affiliates being paid.
• Reporting. When using a network or an agency, they are typically responsible for creating weekly report templates and measuring performance. If you want to get insight into a number of variables, this can often be quite time-consuming.
• Policing the program. When you manage the program in-house, you are responsible for ensuring that affiliates are promoting your brand ethically.
• Recruitment. If you are starting an affiliate program for the first time you can really benefit from working with networks that will instantly give you access to thousands of affiliates, a task which would be very time-consuming if done in-house."
