Affiliate marketing is one of the most popular ways to make money online.

I work online since I was 14 and I made my first money from affiliate marketing back in 2008.

Now in 2016, I promote more than 300 affiliate products and more than 20 affiliate networks on my niche sites.

I know how this whole making money with affiliate programs thing is complicated for newbies, so I will try to make it simple for you right here and right now.

So, I will write this articles for newbies, and if you have any questions you can contact me through my contact form.

What does Affiliate means and How does it work?

If you never heard about affiliate programs, or if you never understood it, I will try to explain you everything, in few simple steps.

So basically, there are websites and networks that sell different products, from books, gadgets, clothes and cars.

In the last few years 90% of these online stores started their own affiliate program.

Let’s say there is some PC ecommerce site online and they sell bunch of laptops in their store.

So, now you go to their site and you register with their affiliate program, what’s next?

If you are internet marketer, and you know how to sell PC-s, you can make tons of money with their affiliate program.

So if you are their affiliate now, you will be able to create unique affiliate link for each of their products from their store.

If their store name is www.pc-store.com, your affiliate link will probably be www.pc-store.com/youraffiliateID.

Now, when you create affiliate link for some laptop, you can send this link to bunch of people online, you can promote it on your own site, on youtube, on Facebook…

If people click on your link, and if they buy PC, you will get commission from that sale.

Affiliate program will usually use cookies to mark your visitor and if they buy anything from their site in the next few days you will get commission from those sales.

Affiliate commissions are usually in 5-30% range for different products.

I hope you understand this, you send people to some web-shop, Amazon.. and if those people buy something from that site, you will get commission because you sent them on affiliate product.

What are some of the best Affiliate Programs?

Amazon affiliate program is probably one of the best and one of the most popular affiliate programs nowdays, you can read my article on how to make money with Amazon affiliates on this link.

Amazon will give you 4-8% commission for your sales through their affiliate program.

One of the best affiliate programs similar to Amazon is AliExpess affiliate program.

AliExpress affiliate is even better choice to start with if you are a newbie, you can promote billion products from Aliexpress, and most of them are pretty affordable, gadgets and stuff like that, and people will buy that stuff more than expensive products from Amazon.

Aliexpress will also give you 5%-10% on your affiliate sales.
