By Mathieu Bisson

The idea is to build affiliations with sites selling products which have a good reputable products which will in turn also help you in getting targeted consumers. This turns into a win-win situation for both.



For example if you are a garment manufacturer and make sports clothing you can have affiliations with other sites selling sporting goods like shoes, equipment, helmets etc and have your ad placed on their sites while having theirs on your site. A genuine customer will definitely click on your site to buy a product complementing his purchase from your affiliate and vice-versa.



This way you start making money online simply and easily by affiliations. The other option is digital products like services, e-books, courses etc for which you can get affiliates by asking ClickBank and various others like them for CPA programs (called "actions") for products people can buy and download instantly. You will not be sending traffic to a sales page where people have to buy something in order for you to get paid a commission, but instead you will get paid for them to take return actions like filling out a survey, an e-mail form, entering a ZIP code etc.



You will not have to develop a product or deal with customer issues or processing orders for the marketplace, and often you will find that the owners providing free tools and resources to help you in your promotion efforts.



With affiliations you start making money online by a very simple process, no money or special talent.
