Want To Earn An Income At Home? Become An Affiliate!
Earning income at home is not a mystery. It just takes some research. My research has led me to understand and seek out affiliate programs.
An affiliate program is an agreement you enter into with a company or person selling a product. You agree to promote that company or product (usually on your website or blog, but word of mouth works too) and they agree to pay you a commission for the business you send their way. It's a win-win situation!
When I first heard about affiliate programs I thought it was too good to be true. Then I thought it was SOOO easy! I found out a lot of the products I use and love had affiliate programs. It was easy for me to send the companies new business. I talked about their product so favorably that others wanted to use it too.
I've run into some really great companies offering affiliate programs. Here are the ones I recommend. You can click on the pictures to go to the company's website.
If you have any questions about any of the companies listed don't hesitate to contact me.
SBI! is the product I'm using to create this e-commerce website. SBI! has taught me all I know about building a successful and profitable website.
One way to measure a website's success is through their Alexa ranking. A low Alexa ranking is the goal for all online businesses. Here's my Alexa ranking to see for yourself how great a teacher the SBI! program is (my ranking has been getting lower every day since I started working on this site in early June '10).
If you want more information, I talk about how I found SBI! on my About SBI! page. I'm also documenting my journey in my Work From Home Moms Mini Blog.

ShareASale.com is a ten year old company that matches affiliates with twenty-five hundred vendors. Their site is like a huge vendor directory. If you're looking for an affiliate program that matches your site or blog topic, they probably have a few that are a perfect match. You can earn a commission on sales from affiliates that have signed up through you. They also give you a hundred dollars for every new merchant you send their way. Their merchants can pay you by pay-per-click, pay-per-sale or pay-per-lead programs.

The Old Schoolhouse Magazine is THE periodical to get if you're thinking about home schooling your child/ren. I have read this magazine since early in my journey and always have loved the practical guidance it gives. I love it so much I dedicated a whole page to talking about it here.

If you need another choice in managing your affiliates, take a look at iDevDirect. Their affiliate account area is user friendly, which comes in handy when you're new to the whole idea of being an affiliate. They start every affiliate off with twenty-five dollars in their account. They use pie charts to show the difference between impressions. They offer page peel links (which catches your eye because it looks like the web browser is peeling back in the corner and blowing in the wind) as well as commission alerts.
This is a fun program to be a part of because you look better while using their product! I've used T-Tapp for three years now to quickly get back down to my pre-pregnancy waist size. Teresa doesn't measure your progress by pounds. Her goal is to get inches off your waist and tone other areas.

I ran across this spelling program, and I think it's great. It's different than any other spelling program out there! My favorite things about it:
-- The program is multisensory, approaching spelling through sight, sound, and touch-- The lesson plans are easy to use and leave nothing out-- It works!
