You are given an i.d. number which identifies you as an affiliate for that program. You can then use marketing materials provided for you to help sell their products. This can be as easy as placing an affiliate banner embedded with your affiliate i.d. right on your website. When someone clicks on the banner they are taken to a web page of the merchant and you have a chance to make a sale and earn a commission.

The commission for affiliates is generally based on cost per click, cost per lead or cost per sale. Google Adsense is an example of a pay per click affiliate program. You place Google script on your page which generates a list of advertisers for your visitor to view. When they click on an ad you make a commission.

Pay per lead is when you get paid to generate leads for companies. This can be nothing more than getting a name and email address. With pay per sale you get paid a percentage of the cost of the sale. Information products are great for this and affilitate programs like ClickBank offer thousands of digital products ready for you to sell.

Affiliate programs are easy to join and most of them will pay you on a monthly basis for selling their products. If you already have a webiste that gets traffic adding a few affiliate products to your site is a great way to offer more to your visitors and create an additional income stream for yourself. The key is to join affiliate programs that are relative to the content of your site. Because this does not require any money on your part to get started affiliate products are pure profit.

Most affiliate programs offer many differnet types of marketing materials to help you sell their products. This could include banners, email marketing messages, graphics, branded eBooks, solo ads, classified ads, and even marketing tips on how to sell their products.
