There are basically three ways on how to locate a target website’s affiliate programs. So here are the 3 ways:

First is to use affiliate program directories. Affiliate programs can easily be located using this service. Affiliate program directories are like the yellow pages of analog telephone industries. This is a very large collection of information that provides the searcher a broad list of options. An example of these types of directories is the Yahoo! Directory or the Open Directory project, called DMOZ. This is a kind of niche directory specializing in affiliate programs that are listed by sector, geographic location or property. It can also show the special characteristics and capacities of the programs that are listed.

You can also find information about affiliate programs in large affiliate networks. These networks provide the gateway for hundred of advertisers to find the affiliate programs of their choice, of course, depending on the needs of the company. The advertiser can browse through other websites in the network he is working with right now and find other good websites that the company expands into. The details of the web owner can be found within those sites, and makes the contact between advertiser and marketer faster and easier.

Lastly, the advertiser can visit the target website itself. If ever these locations do not give out any information pertaining to affiliate websites, then it may be possible that the website is part of a private affiliate program. In this case then, the only way to find information about how to avail of the website’s services is to directly contact the website owner for the inquiries.
