The affiliate marketing world has gained yet another service in the last few weeks with the launch of SkimLinks.

Aimed at blogs, forums, web applications, and content sites that want a hassle-free way to earn money from affiliate marketing, Skimlinks turns normal product links into affiliate links, with no intervention required by the publisher.

That sounds wonderful, but what exactly does that mean?

In simple terms the idea behind Skimlinks is that it does all the "heavy lifting" for you ie. creating the precious deeplinks that are more likely to convert. If you're going to link to an advertiser you're more likely to get a return on a deeplink than you are on a simple homepage link ie. linking to a product is better than linking to the advertiser's main site.

So how does it work?

The guys in Skimlinks have created a short video to show the system in action:
