Enter the world of affiliate marketing. If you have never heard this term before don't be mystified. Affiliate marketing is just the relationship between a product developer or distributor and you (the affiliate). They have a product that they are trying to present to a given market and you help them by sending potential customers there way in exchange for a commission. Your task as an affiliate is to direct traffic to their site, providing them with potential customers, so that you can earn a commission for your contribution to their sale.
There are many different types of products that you can be an affiliate of. Electronics, informational resources, computer programs, dating sites, mortgage lenders, cell phone services, etc. etc. You can check with places like cj.com and clickbank.com to get an idea about what's out there. You may also start to notice links in the bottom of websites that offer certain services that say "become an affiliate" or something of that sort. There are more opportunities out there than you could possibly ever cover.
So how do you get and redirect these potential customers to your clients. There are numerous ways to go about it. There are campaigns through google, yahoo, and MSN, called cost per click advertising where you bid on keywords(words people use to search for things in a search engine), and get your ad displayed for the customer to see. These are the "sponsored links" that you see on the side and top of the search results when you are browsing. If the person clicks on your link, you are charged whatever you bid on that keyword (bid costs are proportionate to keyword popularity), and the user is redirected to the product sales page, where if they purchase, you get commission. There are many other ways to disseminate your ads that don't cost, but you have to be creative, such as creating your own website and placing the ads there.
The key to success is finding a niche that is profitable without being too competitive, experiment with different products, and evaluate the effectiveness of your campaign keywords. There are many methods and approaches, as long as you are targeting your potential customers well you will have a high enough conversion rate to make a good profit. There are allot more details to learn, as this is just a summary, but its all easy to understand. If you are interested in pursuing the opportunity you should gather more knowledge on the subject.
