A home based affiliate business is an excellent way to earn passive income online without customer contact. This article will show you how to create multiple income streams from your website.

What Is Affiliate Marketing

In a nutshell, affiliate marketing is a business relationship between the vendor, an online merchant, and you, the affiliate or associate.

If you refer people to the vendor's store, and they buy a product or service, the vendor will pay you a commission.

It is a Win-Win situation. The vendor effectively has thousands of independent website owners referring customers to his/her website store.

The vendor does not have to pay any salaries or related sales personnel expenses. He only has to pay a commission to you after a sale is made.

You on the other hand also benefit. You do not have to:

  1. develop any products
  2. have a merchant account to process credit card orders
  3. ship any products
  4. communicate with the customer
  5. store products
  6. pay to become an affiliate

You can start a home based affiliate business with very little money, part-time, and work the hours you desire. Successful affiliates earn over $100,000 annually.

Affiliate Business, How It Works

Let's say you create a fun website about vacationing in Orlando Florida.

Tens of thousands of people search for information about Orlando Florida every day.

They search for all kinds of topics including Universal Studios, Disney World, manatees, Blue Spring State Park, golf courses, or Pirate's Dinner Adventure to a name a few.

They find your website by searching on keyword topics mentioned above.

They read your pages of great interesting content, they check your recommendations, they click on the link to TravelNow.com to book a cheap flight to Orlando. You get paid a commission!

Of course they need a place to stay for a few nights, so they click another link to AllHotels.com and reserve a room on your recommendation. KaChing! You earn another commission.

They might even click your affiliate link to Amazon.com and buy a tour book, map, and a novel to read on the plane and at the pool side. KaChing! Another commission earned.

Site Build It! makes this happen.

The Secret To A Successful Home Based Affiliate Business

The key to success is building a content rich website that gets lots of visitors. Your content consists of interesting informational articles based on keywords that people type into search engines.

Tools, such as Site Build It's Brainstorm It, help you find those keywords. I use this tool to not only find those keywords, but to help determine which keyword people use the most and which one is the most profitable for the situation.

A lot of the tedious work and technical obstacles are removed when you use Site Build It. Grandmothers and teenagers, without any technical programming skills, have built successful websites with SBI.

As you write your information articles, your warm up your readers to you. They begin to trust you and they view you as an expert on the subject.

When you make a recommendation to try a product or service, they are willing to give it a try. As long as you steer them with honesty and integrity to your reputable vendors you will succeed as an affiliate marketer.

The free eBook "Make Your Content PREsell! by Ken Evoy (available only to SBI's website owners) explains in great detail the secrets to pre-selling, the art of warming up your website visitors.

You can download the free 193 page eBook "The Affiliate Masters Course". (new window opens)

This book, also by Ken Evoy, CEO of SiteSell, Inc., goes into great detail on how you can become a high-earning affiliate champion. This book is considered the bible of affiliate marketing online.

You will need the free Adobe® Reader to view and print this book. (new window opens)

While you are on the "The Affiliate Masters Course" page, be sure to join the SiteSell's affiliate program. There is a link at the top of the page.

I consider this to be the best affiliate program online. Once you join SiteSell's 5 Pillar Affiliate Program as they call it, you will be able to download additional free eBooks that will help you earn money online and build a home based affiliate business.

You don't need a Site Build It website to build a home based affiliate business, but you would be crazy not too!
