Most of the companies working with affiliates design their own advertisement, whether through graphics or text and give the affiliate sites the choice of different sizes and styles of ads to fit in with their overall website design and color scheme. These ads are also linked with an embedded code to track the number of visitors that each of the affiliated sites send their way, the type of ad that is used and how much they spend on the company's site.
