As far as I know, it’s only if they buy. But like I said, the cookies last for 30 days you might have forgotten about the shoes you clicked on an aff link for 3 weeks ago, then buy something else and the % commission will still go to that blogger.Do you get any money if someone clicked through but never purchased anything?
I get the feeling a lot is maybe gifted in some way? Or she’s buying and returning. It’s something I don’t really understand either, cos even if you’re earning a decent amount you still have to be careful. Unless you’re a millionaire or somethingHow does she afford to buy so many clothes and pay her rent and bills? I'm genuinely baffled. Does having affiliate links on Instagram really pay that much?
It's not really your money. The brand gives the influencer a % of the total cost of any order placed through an affiliate link. If you found a product or bought clothing because an influencer posted about it, it's kidn of fair that they get some money from that. You wouldn't have bought it if they hadn't posted about itI don’t understand it. Can anyone with good maths work it out ?like surely people aren’t even that stupid to swipe up on aff link these days ? If I like something they recommend I just search for it myself rather than giving these influencers my £££
ASOS give influencers vouchers for a lot of the purchases they make, I've seen smaller influencers admit this so the larger ones are definitely getting it too.I get the feeling a lot is maybe gifted in some way?

Yeah I know it’s not my actual money that’s going to them but my point is purchases made will profit them. Although saying that, I haven’t bought anything Lily has raved about in years as her style isn’t to my taste and I personally don’t like the brands that she shops at.It's not really your money.

That’s what I assumed. That there was some kind of monthly allowance or something. That definitely makes sense!ASOS give influencers vouchers for a lot of the purchases they make, I've seen smaller influencers admit this so the larger ones are definitely getting it too.
Such good idea ! She’s 30 now and a lot of us have grown up with her and her content is just not relatable with the excessive buying anymore. I know she doesn’t like talking in-depth about the details her health but I’d love to see videos on living with a chronic illness. And like you said, dating stories, especially in your 30’s would also be fun and relatable !!Think she lives with 3 others at least. Glad that she is having fun living with mates (Dahl, I think, am i butchering her name, hope not) wish she'd do some vlogging of housesharing stuff. Maybe some reviews of her dates etc. Might break up all the afd link swipe up and ads for new look / pll dresses. She is mentioning going to the post office a lot, so i assume she returns all of what she buys regularly.
I feel like a lot of people still aren’t aware of how affiliate links work. I know I wasn’t too I read about it here. I wasn’t aware of them staying in your browser. I do think there needs to be a lot more transparency around them with people who use them.I really don’t agree with people having to conform to dated society standards, 30 is still so young.
My dislike of affiliate links is them staying in browsers for 30 days and I don’t believe most influencers, like Lily, have ever made their audience aware of this.
Especially when influencers use clickbait, underhand tactics to get people to click on affiliate links, refusing to say where an item is from and only doing a swipe-up, etc. If they were really wanted to share they would just say it on IG.
Everyone knows the websites Lily shops at exist, if you click her link knowing its affiliate but still want to buy that item of clothing then I don’t see the issue. But why should Lily then be financially rewarded if you go back on that website to buy something she’s never linked to, or is new to the website a few weeks later?
Ah just to be able to drop everything and pop to IKEA on a weekday afternoonno one:
lilly: swipe up for the mirror i broke!
how many stories does she need to post about breaking a mirror and buying a new one? i feel like a few of my brain cells died watching that
She is forever going to the post office on her stories...i assume to return her ugly cheap pll dresses. She used to make good vlogs, miss them. Wonder if we will find out what happened to aheirs when she goes home for Christmas.I’m pretty sure she returns at least half of what she photos. In the last few weeks she has put comments up like ‘been in leggings all week’ on her IG stories but everyday before has been posting done up outfits making out like that’s what she’s been wearing to get the aff links out.
I think she does some big orders. Does her hair and make up, takes a fuck tonne of photos in a day then does sod all in joggers for the next two weeks!!
