How to Make Extra Money in This Weak Economy

As the economy continues to worsen worldwide, more and more people are turning to the Internet to make extra money. A great way to make extra money online is by using affiliate products. Affiliate products are created by a merchant who pays you a commission each time someone who you refer to their website makes a purchase. Commissions can vary between 20% and 75% of the sale price.

It is an easy business to get started in because the merchant takes care of all of the details. The merchant creates the product, designs a quality sales page, delivers the product, takes care of all sales questions and problems, and sends you a check. In short, the merchant takes care of everything. Your only job is to refer traffic to the merchant’s sales page and cash checks.

For those reasons, the use of affiliate products is very popular with people who are trying to make extra money online. But that doesn’t mean that it is easy. Getting traffic is the thing that is difficult.

If you are trying to earn extra money online, you probably can’t afford to pay for advertising, so you need to use free techniques to generate traffic. One of the best ways to get free advertising is through the use of articles.

Well-written informative articles that provide valuable information related to your affiliate products can be very effective. In each article, include a link to your blog or affiliate program. When people read your article, they will click on your link, and generate traffic.

Good articles are frequently noticed by the search engines and this brings you even more traffic. This technique is very effective but does not work if you only write 1 or 2 articles. You have to write many articles to generate meaningful traffic.
