You get bombarded every day with emails or pop ups while browsing the internet with the promise of making money online or “legitimate work at home jobs online”.

As a result I found the following:  Affiliate Programs are key to making money on the internet.

You are basically a marketer for a core product and when someone buys from your hoplink you get a little cash.

There are three keys to sucess for affiliate programs.

You need to have a well identified niche and it must me a niche you can leave a mark in.

A large email distribution for that niche market is crucial.

The ability to generate large traffic to your squeeze page- after all, who is going to buy it if noone sees it.

Two of the most popular affiliate programs you generally see are Ebay and Amazon. I’m not counting all the MLM businesses or the clickbank products since I consider those in a catagory themselves.

Ebay- The primary focus of making money with Ebay is for you to sell what you have to make money. While this method has never worked for me personally to make alot of money, it’s okay for a few dollars here and there.

There are some that do it and do it well enough by having hundreds of listings and sourcing products to sell that they make out ok. I found the cost of listing was a bit high, maybe their new price decrease will help encourage sellers to list their products but it looks like you still get hit with steep fees when the product sells. 

I also have been turned off by ebay for the pure fact that so many people are “making a living” on ebay that you end up having a hundred of the same exact product listed instead of individual sellers that were selling something they had around the house. I  preferred all the little sellers clearing out their house and selling what they don’t use- I just thought that was more fun and community like.

However, Ebay now has an affiliate program and this is of more interest to me. You sign up and get your ebay widget and if someone clicks thru then you get a few cents. It’s automatic… I like automatic. SQUIDOO has an easy pre made affiliate module that allows you to pick ebay products or fill in search terms and they will populate, take seconds to put one up.

The other popular affiliate program that can earn you as much as 10% of each sale is Amazon.com.  Now that Amazon sells so much more then just books, it is easier to find products that relate to your posts or articles and link to it or review it and get a quick easy sale.

Not sure how to get started making money on line with affiliate programs? I’m just finishing up a little report that shows you the steps, what to look for and how to evaluate affiliate programs to get the most bang for your buck. Until next time keep searching for legitimate work at home jobs online and leave a post on what works for you!
