If you have recently started to look for extra money online, you are no doubt facing the difficult task of insufficient resources, knowledge and capital to start any online promotion. You might even face information overload and all sort of scam trying to make you spend your money to get your online business started.

That is exactly what I faced when I first get started online. With little internet knowledge and not enough money, what should you do to earn your first dollar online?

I spend my days researching on the internet and found a quick and easy way to earn online money. This quick and easy way is affiliate marketing. With affiliate marketing, anyone, with or without a website, with or without a product, can earn a decent passive income online.

The reason why affiliate marketing is such an excellent money making machine is because it allows you to tap on other people's success and start your business quickly. You are selling other people's ready products at no cost on your side. Best of all, you get paid a commission every time you get a sale.

The commission that you will be getting can range from 50-75).

There are many ways to promote affiliate products on the internet. Your budget usually will determine what is the best path to take. Some opt to advertise on pay per click services such as google. If the product you have chosen is popular and converts well, you can earn huge income. On the other hand, if the product you have chosen is not converting well, your advertising money will go down the drain.

There are many internet marketers who make thousand of dollars every month. How do they do that? As a newbies, the easiest way to kickstart is to study other people's sales process. When I was a newbies, I used to look at websites and study the way they promote the products. Alternative, you can learn from selected guru who has huge successes on the internet can guide you in the right direction. Be selective in choosing the right mentor as there are many scams on the internet. Choose one who is creditable and whom you trusted.
