Affiliate marketing is a way of making money by promoting the products of another company for a commission on each sale he/she generates. Commission rates will vary, depending on the company and the product. Affiliate marketing has been around for MANY years and it's not going away anytime soon.

I hope that clears things up.

Affiliate is; where you promote seoclerks by telling a friend on an email, and when they sign up and make money off of SeoClerks, you will get 10% commission on all sales -> This is half (50%) of the profit SEOClerks makes for each sale.

Affiliate Marketing is when you sign up on a site to become an affiliate marketer in which you would be given a personal link which you would post on the net. Whenever someone clicks your link and signs up or buys a product from the site then you'll get a pre arranged commission to be credited to your account.

Affiliate Marketing sounds great and it looks very easy to earn from it but don't be fooled because a lot of affiliate programs are out there to scam people. You won't get paid correctly because you won't really know how many have used your link and that's a loophole that site owners and or their staff uses to scam affiliates.
