Affiliate marketing is a proven way to make money. However, I warn that it is no where near simple or uncomplicated. There are literally hundreds of 'gurus' on the internet offering their own 'tired and true fall-safe' programs and methods that promise you riches beyond your wildest dreams. Don't get involved with these folks on a paid basis. I think you can garner a lot of information from these characters, but none of it is worth spending money to learn.

I am NOT involved in affiliate marketing in anyway at all, but I have also looked into it enough to know that it can be quite profitable. I also have become aware of the very real fact that to do this in a successful way a considerable amount of money will be required for a host of reasons (the gurus will not tell you of these until they have you hooked) and even more TIME will be needed to devote to the endeavor than one might think. Personally the time requirements needs were what kept me from pursuing this venture, much more so than the investment of money.

Good luck!

I've also checked that opportunity out. Some are scams where they will tell you to pay a one time fee to own a website that sales things and you get a certain percentage of the money each time someone buys something on the website and they will get traffic to the website for you.
What they don't tell you is that they will either charge you a monthy hosting fee even if you ask if they will or not , they sometimes do anyways and you don't get traffic to it without figuring out how to get people there yourself. You have to advertise it and hope people will see your ads and buy something from there and if they do how do you know for sure the company isn't lying and not showing people are buying from your website when they really are.
Some places like that break rules of the companies that they are referring .They become referrals basically for lots of companies and make lots of websites with the companies icons that go back to the company to buy things. When, the company has a rule against that. The rule is to only have there icons on your site only and not to make it for other people. I know because later on I decided to be a referral for walmart for example and make my own website with walmart and other companies on it but I couldn't get traffic for it and people would reither go to walmart.com there self then to go there from my site LOL.  There is other places where you can do that but getting enough referrals to buy things isn't easy. I've tried that opportunity out too. I'm not very good at getting referrals anywhere though LOL!

I signed up with Bestmark it is a secret shopper site. They  had one this week end where you go to a new carlot and act like your interested in buying a car. they would pay you 20.00  I didn't do it cause I feel funny about it i'm in no way really looking to buy a new car.They have other ones where you get a oil change and they pay 35.00 the cost of the oil change. it seems like a real company might want to check it out .

I am always looking for ways to earn more money online beings I can't work.  I want to earn at least $100 a month but would like to earn $400 a month which would be great.  I could get my teeth fixed, get my animals fixed (that people have dumped off at my house)because they need to stop breading.  Maybe finish remodeling my kitchen, living room and bathroom.

Amazon Mechanical Turk is going to be your best option, if you are in the US.

why you just don't go into the search engine and put in work at home and, a list of work at home jobs will come up but, one thing don't trust them all make, sure you do your research on them.  they can be tricky.

This has got to be the worst advice I have ever seen to help a newbie get started making money online! They might as well walk into a bar in the worst part of town and throw their wallet on the pool table.

This is a horrible way to go searching for ways to make money online. Trust me, I've been 'bitten twice'. Right now I'm trying to have my money returned based on a 'money back guarantee' and have not had my e-mails nor phone calls answered! One returned my money after threats to report them for Internet fraud! BEWARE!!! :angry7:
