Using Affiliate Marketing To Make Money

By Seth Gobbin

People sign up to survey sites everyday hoping to make some extra income from home. They are usually under the impression that it is easy money because that is what they have been told or heard. It is true that you can make some money with these survey sites but in reality you cant really make that much unless you learn how to refer others to the sites.

At this time, the economy is in such bad shape that there are many people looking for ways to make extra money. This means it is a perfect time to be trying to find people to sign up and if you can get them to do it under your referral link, you stand to make some decent money.

One method of getting referrals is to print up business cards or fliers with your referral links on them and distribute them around town. They can be handed out, put up on bulletin boards, and distributed at the local college. Anyone who then signs up using your link will make you money. There are lots of ideas like that and if you are creative you can probably come up with more. However, if you want to do a better job of making referrals, you should concentrate your efforts online.

Online affiliate marketing is really the art of doing the same thing but doing it via the Internet. Companies routinely pay people for leads they can bring that will get the company additional business and sales. This is part of their advertising budget and is no different from the idea of getting business from more traditional advertising channels such as radio, television, and print ads. Most survey companies will give you a small reward for the business you bring to them and the Internet is definitely the best place to find that potential business.

If you know how to make a blog and get links to that blog, you can get it on the first page of Google and get some traffic. If it is the right kind of traffic, you will stand the chance of getting some referrals. Once the referrals start coming in, you will most likely make more than you did by doing the surveys. This is a very brief explanation of affiliate marketing and how it can be used to make money online. It takes time, patience, and work but it does bring in some money if you know what you are doing.
