Question

Can I really make money online? Do affiliate programs work?

Answer 1

Yes it is true. However, it is a learned skill as well. It is not as easy as many elude. With the proper marketing/advertising you can do well. There are web hosts that specialize in assisting people set up websites to promote affiliate marketing programs of their choice. I would suggest that you look around at options so that you know you are getting the right match for your interests. The web host that I use is one of the few great web hosts who specialize in this area. You can take a look at them as one of your options. http://affiliatemarketing.sitesell.com/UnstoppableDreams.html

I would be happy to share some of my own experiences and tips as well.

Answer 2

Affiliate marketing is the best and easiest way to start earning money online and making a living through the Internet. The most common misconception about affiliate marketing is that one can make huge profits simply by slapping up a two-page website with no original content and tossing some affiliate links in it. Because of this, many people easily become discouraged and drop out their affiliate programs after a few days even before they get to receive their first dollar. Although with the right programs there is plenty of money to be made through affiliate marketing, this is not a scheme where you can get rich overnight. You will have to devote some time and energy to your campaigns to achieve that kind of wealth that you?re aiming for.

Dwain,



There are plenty of great money-making websites you can take advantage of.



The trick to making money online is to sort out the few legitimate opportunities from all the scams that are out there (some of which are mentioned in a few of the "answers" you're getting here, I'm afraid).



You can make money from online advertising revenue, by contributing content (writing, photos, blogs) to sites like eHow.com that share the income.



There are quite a number of other ways for making money on the internet. For instance, did you know you can listen to music online and get paid for it? (Really...I mean it).



There's a terrific list of totally legitimate money-making opportunities in this article:

Answer 8

YES IT IS TRUE.

Answer 9

Yes and no. If you aren't the owner of the product being sold or you don't already have a high-traffic website, then no, you aren't going to make any money at it. What you'll end up doing is spamming messageboards trying to get people to click your link, hoping that they'll buy the product and you'll get some tiny commission on the sale.



If it is your product or you have a popular site, then you stand a chance at not completely wasting your time.

Answer 10

yes it is true, however if you don't know the industry that your getting involved in, then you will need some help and training.

There are a lot of different home based business opportunities out there to get involved in. All with great income potential. I know quite a few people who have their own home based business that make an incredible amount of income running a simple business from home. Home based businesses do not cost a whole lot of money to get started either. They don't have the over head that traditional business have either. Almost everything in your home becomes a tax write off. Things you use every day.

I think the best one is in the telecommuniations industry with the largest direct selling Telecommunication service provider in the world. They are 15 years old with head quarters in Farmington Hills Michigan, Charlotte North Carolina, Amsterdam, Sydney and Montreal. They have been featured in several magazines like USA Today, Success, Fortune etc. Inc 500 rated them the 22nd fastest growing company in revenue in it's first five years. They are registered with the BBB and FDSA as well.

They market in services people use every day and pay for anyway. Services like Local and Long Distance telephones, Internet, Digital, video phones, Satellite TV, and all the major cellular phone companies like T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, Nextell, Altell etc as well. We save people money and make money at the same time. Every single month these people pay their bills, we make a percentage over and over again each month. Donald Trump has endorsed our company and uses the services as well.

How many people do you know, or know of around the world that uses one or more of these services or products? . A lot of people right? You can save them money and make money.

If this is an industry that you would like to learn more about, you should contact Tiffany at [e-mail] and she can answer any questions and go over everything with you.

Answer 13

Yes, you can make a lot of money in affiliate marketing - that is, promoting other people's products and services. But the thing is - you must follow the right strategies, and you must be patient.



The thing about affiliate marketing is that it is not a "get rich quick" scheme that some people claim it is - one advice for you here - if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is not true...



You need to treat this whole affiliate marketing as a business - and approach it with the same attitude like how you were to treat a brick and mortar business. Be consistent with your work and over time, you'll be able to see results gradually and this is where you can build a good income from affiliate marketing (and even a full time income from it).



I personally have made a 5-figure income from affiliate marketing using the right strategies and techniques - but it took me quite sometime, and lots of effort and patience. :)



If you like to know more about affiliate marketing, you may wish to check out a website I've created on it at http://www.squidoo.com/affiliate-marketing-on-the-internet where I answer the questions that people have about affiliate marketing - what works and what don't.



Hope this information will be useful for you. Good luck! :D

Answer 15

Affiliate programs work, but it is like any other business. It is work, not a free meal ticket. You will need to learn the affiliate marketing business and know that there are lots of sharks out there willing to take your money and not care about their reputation.



Anyone who is considering Affiliate Marketing should read "What the Affiliate Marketing Guru's Don't Tell You". It is a FREE download available at: http://www.AffiliateGurusExposed.com

Answer 16

Yes you can definitely make money with affiliate programs. One of the other contributors makes an excellent point about having a website with traffic. To make decent money ,it is important to have your own website with a consistent stream of free traffic from the search engines. One way to accomplish that is to have a high position in the search engines. There are some helpful videos on affiliate programs and how to increase your sales at the website below.

Answer 17

Yes it is possible to make very good money by joining an affiliate program. You do not have to own the product or have a fancy website. The company I am associated with allows us to control our own profit points on products and offers a generous commission if we choose to sponsor other people. Find a product that consumers want and that you would be proud to offer, because it's what you put into it that determines what you get out of it. (Trite, but true)

I wish you much success in whatever you decide.

Answer 18

I've been involved with a site for a while that rewards cash for simple tasks that take a mere couple of minutes. Most opportunities like this are scams, obviously, but, finally, I am glad to be able to say that I have found a legitimate website where one can make a decent amount of money without much work at all. Unlike scam sites, this one actually pays you when you earn your money. The minimum cash out is only $10, which is amazing! Again, I must stress how easy this site is to use, and I must also stress how legitimate it is. Why? Because I know how it feels to be scammed over and over. The links below will take you to the website. Have fun and enjoy your earnings. =)

Answer 19

Yes Affiliate programs do work but it is not magic. Select the correct products to sell, have a descent website and there will be potential.



Here is a great, illustrated explanation on how the whole affiliate concept works

http://www.buildoffers.com/demo/howitworks.asp



I like http://www.BuildOffers.com - There you can have your own website created and they do it in such a way that your site will be accepted in the affiliate chain networks... Something to do with compliance pre-approved content. Plus they offer live updates and many different products to choose from.



Good Luck!

Answer 22

money online affiliate programs work

Answer 23

MakeMoneyStudio is very different from all other programs

because it’s membership is FREE. There is no catch. I’ve tried it very recently and it is, in fact, free. This should be the first program you explore before buying anything else. It’s always great to learn free information first and then move on to paid programs.

Answer 24

Yes it is possible. Though you'll find you'll make more money via google adsense rather than affiliate progams... And you do need to know what you're doing too of course.



I make reasonble money via google's adsense :) It's pretty safe to say that google *arn't* scam artists eitehr, which is a massive plus!! :) Google lets you add your own adsense ads on a blog set up on their site - http://www.blogger.com - too, which means you'll have zero start up costs... (Just aim to write about what you know and/or your life, rather than aim just to make money via your blog). If you do want proper advice I have recommendations to a few books on my site at http://www.strange-frontier.com/money.html Which you can either get dead cheap by buying from one of the Third Party merchants - which means the books are 2nd hand - or getting them out of the libary rather than buying them from Amzon itself :)
