Step 9: Using Affiliate Programs

Does your web site make you money?

You can make money by joining a sponsor's affiliate program. It's as easy as placing a link or a banner to another web sites products or service on your web site. This can be very lucrative if you have a busy web site.

When your users click on the banners on your site you can get paid for each click coming from your web site or you can get paid based on what the person buys when they go to your sponsors web site. The links and banners have a tracking code embedded into them, this allows the sponsor to know where the visitor came from.

When you sign up with a sponsor, you will be given step by step instructions on how to place the links on your page. It's very easy to do and requires no maintenance.
