With more and more companies turning to online marketing in a bid to increase their sales generation and client base; the need for such tools as affiliate marketing has never been stronger.
Yet the process of becoming an affiliate is incredibly simple.
What is affiliate marketing?
In simple terms, affiliate marketing involves joining an affiliate program; basing your website around a particular business product/service; setting up links to their main website and turning the visitors you attract into buying clients.
Do all that and in a matter of minutes you could be earning a commission of up to £200.
Okay, so how do I get started?
Firstly, you need to find an affiliate program that best suits you. As we are writing this there are hundreds of affiliate programs online, so take your time to read through their material and pick a program filled with merchants you can easily promote. Once you find one that appeals to you, you then need to join.
How do I do that?
Whilst on the one hand some programs will require you to fill in an online application that enables merchants to assess the suitability of your website for their products; the vast majority work under a very different system.
Instead when you join them you will be offered access to numerous merchants and sales items that you can freely pick and add to your website.
Affiliate marketing – what does it entail?
One of the definite perks of entering into this niche is that it is inexpensive, easy to do and you can do it all from the comfort of your own home. It is truly a lucrative opportunity for any serious web publisher who is looking to increase their cash flow.
Admittedly building a website, getting it ranked on Google, building traffic and generating sales will take some time to begin with, but the potential cash flow you can generate from becoming an affiliate is well worth the time and effort.
Out of the 125+ programs we reviewed and tested, "Genuine Income Streams" was the 2nd best performing program.
The author Robert Wass provides top-notch information that cuts right through the fluff to deliver a straight forward system for making money online.
After going through the program the first time, we realised the author of the program, has very extensive knowledge on how to make money on the internet. His system is very streamlined as compared to the other programs we tested. The program doesn't waste time talking about unnecessary technical stuff but goes straight into the ad system and guides you step-by-step on exactly how to set it all up.
Besides the advertising money making system that is the mainstay of the program, "Genuine Income Streams" also comes with a large number of bonus packages that are easily complete programs by themselves. Some of these packages are sold individually elsewhere on the internet for a lot more than Robert charges for access to his entire program.
Recently, he just added a few new bonus features that really helped beginners like us. The first is a ‘Limited Time Offer’. Robert is offering you a fully functioning professionally built website for their that is 100% automated and ready to start making money online immediately. This bonus alone is worth £349 but right it completely free, to all new members. Our guess is that this won't be free for too long and it will probably be taken down very soon.
The program was originally priced at well over $50 but sometimes they have occasional special offers. We bought our package at $37 and thought it was a complete steal.
(Update: Robert and his team are doing a special promotion right now and is offering the program for less than $10!) The program also comes with a 100% money back guarantee so we had nothing much to fear for trying it out.
This is the program that made Margaret £483.25 in the first week and is by far the No. 2 choice from the 125+ make money sites we reviewed.
Limited Time Offer – Get Instant Access For Only $7.97!

Top tips for affiliate success
As we mentioned before you cannot simply offer a website filled with advertisements. The best way to succeed in affiliate marketing is to tailor your website to your audiences needs and to ensure there is enough content to get them to convert.
1. Choose a Market Niche
Weight loss pills, property courses, insurance… there are thousands of merchants on the internet looking to be represented. Now before you sign up to any make sure you choose an area that peaks your interest; one that you will enjoy writing about and know you can turn into a profitable niche.
2. Create Powerful content
You’ve picked a niche, found the best affiliate program for you… now you need to write the content.
Your website is essentially a consumer resource, so the content you produce here needs to be what your readers want to see and read about. To achieve this try to include product reviews, gift guides and product advice to keep them interested and make your product appear more credible.
3. Track your progress
Most good affiliate programs will offer you the technology to effectively track your sales and ensure that you receive the commissions you deserve.
Another bonus of these detailed reports are their ability to help you keep track of which items are selling best and which are failing. With this data you can plan ahead, amend your product choices and build an affiliate marketing strategy that is guaranteed to keep your site growing successfully for many years to come.
Are there any other perks?
Many. The main being that affiliate marketing is hassle free.
Compared to most marketing niches, affiliate marketing is an expanding business with more companies wanting to join it in a bid to help increase their online exposure.
Yet as an affiliate, representing their products is more appealing than you can imagine.
Low Start-Up Costs: free to join, many affiliate programs will now provide you with a personalised website, plus content (articles, reviews, press releases) that you can re-write and put onto your site. The only expense you might come across is website hosting fees, which you can easily avoid if you have already got a website that you can modify.
Minimal Hassle: your sole job as an affiliate is to sell products/services. The stock, inventory, distribution and customer service involved in supporting this product is the responsibility of the merchant. Not yours.
Quick Results: easily the best feature about affiliate marketing is that it allows you to start earning money within a short space of time. With a little time and commitment to begin with, you can set up a simple website that will allow you to start selling your product within a matter of hours. Plus by also marketing your website through the utilisation of SEO (search engine optimisation), email marketing, blog posts and newsletters, you can increase your sites successes even further.
