36 Key Terms in One Line Each

Affiliate marketing: introduce a product and earn when a conversion happens — reward triggers on the result, not the ad placement

Kingfin / OlympTrade: Kingfin is OlympTrade's official affiliate program (by LIVINGTONE OVERSEAS INC.). OlympTrade has been a FinaCom member since 2016

Referral link / dashboard: your exclusive URL that records results, and the panel where you check them in real time

RevShare vs. CPA: RevShare = continuous share (stock-type), CPA = fixed reward per conversion (one-off)

Approval rate / LTV: the share of conversions confirmed as rewards; the total value one referred person brings over time

Minimum payout / tiers: the lowest threshold to withdraw; the rate rising with track record

Cookie / SubID: records a click for a set period to tie later registrations to you; your own tag to separate where conversions come from

Impression → CTR → CVR: displays → share clicked → share of clickers who converted. Trace where readers drop off

EPC: average reward per click — a "money" metric for deciding where to spend your time

GA4 / Search Console: free tools for where readers come from, and how you rank / get found in search

SEO / search intent: making articles easier to find; matching what the searcher truly wants. Misreading intent is why articles don't rank

Long-tail keyword: low-volume but specific compound queries — the territory a new blog aims at first

E-E-A-T / AEO: Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trust; and optimizing to be quoted as "the answer" by AI search

Internal links / backlinks / dwell time: connect your own pages; earn external links naturally; rewrite to keep readers longer

UTM parameters: source / medium / campaign tags to measure external traffic — never on your own internal links

Engagement: likes, reposts, replies. Reactions matter more than raw follower count

Funnel: learn → interest → compare → register. Social for awareness, blog for depth, link for the referral

CTA / LP: the prompt to the next action; the page the reader lands on. Position and wording move CVR

Representation law: "definitely earn / income guaranteed" may be an exaggerated claim. Kingfin's terms prohibit it too

Stealth marketing regulation: hiding that something is an ad is regulated in Japan since Oct 1, 2023. Show "contains PR"

Disclaimer / rel="sponsored": state limits and risk honestly; mark affiliate links for search engines
