One of the easy ways to start making money online is through affiliate marketing. There are hundreds of affiliate programs online now. You can join as many as you want. You will not need a product or a website to start making money online with this method.

When you join an affiliate program, you get commission on selling a product. Usually you promote that product through the merchants website. This method is also known as direct linking or Google Cash Method.

You will get your own affiliate link from the program for each merchant registered on the program. You start promoting that website. People will visit that website; some will want to purchase that product. When a sale is made, you get a fixed percentage as commission.

The important think is that how you are going to advertise the merchants website. One of the easiest ways is to start advertising with Pay per Click Method. All the three main search engines, Google, Yahoo and MSN have PPC programs. Pay per Click means that for each click on your ad you will have to pay.

You can open a Google Adwords Account with $5. Similarly, you can open an MSN account for $5. Yahoo lets you open an account if you deposit minimum $30. All the three search engines also can give you a free $50 or $100 voucher also in the beginning.

This is just to entice you to start ppc by these search engines. But these $50 or $100 free clicks can help you test a few products. Open an account on these three search engines.

Select a niche that you think is popular these days. You can use Alexa or Lycos to check what are the hottest products. Choose a product. Make a campaign on these three search engines.

In the beginning dont set your daily budget more than $2 and choose your keywords carefully. The choice of keywords in PPC is very important. Think like you are the one searching for the product that you want to sell.

Thinking like a buyer, what type of keywords the buyer will write on the search bar to search for the product? Choose long tail keywords that have more than three words. Dont use general one word keywords. They get a lot of traffic but dont convert.

Google, Yahoo and MSN all three give you a free Keyword Tool that you can use to see what type of keywords people are typing to search for the product that you want to sell.

See if the website converts into a sale in about 100 clicks. If not, drop it and choose another merchants website. PPC is the wise combination of good keywords and a good website that can make sales in less than the amount of your commission per sale.
