What is affiliate marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a way of making money online by promoting the products of another company for a commission on each sale you generate.

People who promote products in this manner are called "affiliates", or sometimes "partners" or "associates". Most affiliates promote products through their websites or email lists, but you're not restricted to these methods: Basically, anywhere you can put a website address or a hyperlink can be turned into a promotional vehicle -- the only limit is your imagination.

Affiliate marketing isn't a pyramid-selling scheme, and it's not a tool for scammers and spammers. Affiliates are regular people looking to earn some extra cash from their websites, or individuals wanting a serious work-at-home business that they can perform from anywhere in the world, with serious earning potential.

Affiliate marketing: where you get to spend all day promoting someone else's product and getting paid a tiny commission for your troubles. It's like being a door-to-door salesman, but instead of selling vacuum cleaners, you're selling someone else's ebook or software. And instead of getting a decent commission, you're lucky if you make enough to cover your coffee habit.
But hey, at least you get to be your own boss and work in your pajamas, right?
