Where can I learn how to make money as a affiliate marketer?

[Tori]

There are several platforms you can use as a web presence - your own website, a blog or blogs or article writing sites like Squidoo: http://www.squidoo.com/lensmaster/referral/VickiSims The important thing is to create pages with unique and interesting content about a specific topic that people will find interesting or helpful to read and then add links only to products that relate to your topic. You can then use social media like Facebook and Twitter to post links to your pages or blogs to help get more traffic.

Personally, I would suggest starting with Squidoo: http://www.squidoo.com/lensmaster/referral/VickiSims The site gets a lot of traffic and you can earn income directly from Squidoo from sales of Amazon products and if you look around at what others have written you will learn a lot about how to create an interesting page that will attract traffic and, as a result sales. You can also add links to your own affiliate program products in the modules.

You will probably need to create some pages first before applying to affiliate programs because many of the better programs will want to look at your pages before approving you for their program. Here are some affiliate programs that are fun and easy to use:

You don't need a website to earn from Zazzle - you can set up and create your own virtual shop using your own photos and graphics or you can just get an associate code to earn commissions from referrals to other people's products: http://www.zazzle.ca/?rf=238110270365818601 You can post relevant product links on your webpages or blogs or on social media sites.
