I really want to start making money online but I am still unsure of how to become part of an affiliate marketing company. The one thing that I have been looking into is the type of thing where you sponsor a link for a website and then if that website creates income because of your link, then you receive a percentage of that revenue. PLEASE! If you know anything about this concept/process then please let me know!

2 things are needed google adwords account and http://www.clickbank.com account

sign up for both and pick something to advertise on clickbank, they will give u a refferal link to advertise and for everyone u get to join, part of the commission such as 66% of the money that is spent on the website go’s to you

advertise that link on google adwords

to advertise correctly you need to target websites like if its a mp3 your advertising you need to target lyrics websites.

good luck! and if you need me to explain more put in additional details ill check back and edit!

I know that affiliate marketing is oversaturated, but is there really any chance of making some decent money with it?

Some people work hard, and they make thousands. Some people work hard and they make next to nothing.

I’m new to affiliate marketing and I’m trying to find a step by step method that can pretty much walk me through the entire process without all the "my method is best" type speeches.

Anyone read a good book recently that can talk to you and not at you?

Thanks

i haven’t read the book regarding marketing but i had gone through lots of websites which gave me lot of different ideas and knowledge and from that the best i liked were strategizeblue.com and ebizsubmit.com which help and guide to promote the business

How do people make money from home doing affiliate marketing? How do they find out what products they can sell for someone else? How do they generate web traffic? How hard is all of this? Is a home-based business only meant for a very few select group of people?

Affiliate programs are the first choice of most newcomers to net earnings because they have many advantages:

1. All you have to do is to join a merchant program as an affiliate and send visitors to the merchant site

2. All other work such as making a sale, delivering the product or service, receiving payment, attending to the complaints or making a refund, is handled by the merchant site.

3. The merchant site also sees to it that you are paid commission when a sale is made through your efforts.

4. You are also rewarded when a sale is made through the efforts of an affiliate referred by you to the merchant site.

All easy and simple. But most affiliates soon find that in spite of their best efforts they are not making any money.

This is because the affiliate earnings depend not on how many visitors they send to the merchant site, but how many of them buy the product or service of the merchant.

So just sending visitors to the merchant site is not enough.
You can do this easily by joining traffic exchange or autosurf programs. Your merchant site will be seen hundreds of times but it will not make a sale. This is because these visitors are not interested in your site. They are looking at it to earn credits so they can show their site to others.

This is not to say that traffic programs have no use at all.
I have used them successfully to build my downline in free-to-join programs, but have never made a sale through them. Most members of such programs are promoting their own programs. They could get interested in joining other opportunities, but would rarely go for a product themselves.

So if you want to earn from affiliate programs, the thing to do is to send interested visitors to your merchant site.

Who is an interested visitor?
This is the visitor who reached your site by himself. He is looking for the product you are promoting. This is why he took the trouble of finding it from a search engine or from the particular kind of ads or forums.

This visitor is red hot for a sale. He is already interested in your product. If he finds what he wants on your merchant site, he is very much likely to look at the product’s features, mentally compare it with other similar products, ask for more information by giving his email address. All this can lead to a sale and a commission for you.

How to target interested visitors
The best way to reach interested visitors is promoting your products through search engines submissions, placing catchy ads, posting in forums or through your own website.

This may sound daunting to newcomers at first but all these are do-able with a little effort. You can get help for mastering all these skills from the resources freely available on the internet.

Joining right affiliate programs can also help a good deal to gain affiliate mastery. While great many affiliate programs give you a few text ads and banners and be done with you, there are some programs that give valuable training to succeed.

Be positive
Most newcomers to internet earning fail because they expect to be rich in a week, if not overnight. When this doesn’t happen as it rarely does in real life, they get discouraged. They are also influenced by others who like them tried but failed to earn with affiliate programs. The result — they give up, frustrated.

The reality is that nobody becomes rich overnight in internet marketing. You have to work at it consistently. Most important of all, banish negative thinking from your life and believe that if others have succeeded, you, too, can and will.

That perhaps is the most important ingredient for your success.

I was looking into the entire Adsense thing and noticed that traffic is a must for this to work and then i came across Affiliate marketing. I signed up for Clickbank but can REAL money be made with affiliate marketing? I’m a good writer but I’m not sure that advertising someone elses product is a good money maker. Any thoughts on whether Affiliate Marketing is worth it? Thanks

its a lot of trial and error !! but once you get the hang of it, it will really pay off.

Let’s say, you’re selling something for $1000 and giving $400 commission per item to each affiliate (40% commission).

What if people who want to buy your product are smart enough to sign up as your affiliate, buy the product, pay $1000 and get $400 back, thereby ending up paying only $600 nett.

Wouldn’t it spoil the whole affiliate marketing structure?

In your example, you are only going to get $600 in either case. You are always going to be "losing" the $400 as a selling fee to your affiliate. So you have to price your product so that $600 is enuf for you to make a profit and stay in business.

You have hit upon the weakest part of the "affiliate" business model. If you can cut out the middleman, you can save a lot of money. In the 1950’s everything went thru "wholesalers". Now they hardly exist.
