When operating a home based business online there are basically there are two types:
- Affiliate Marketing
- Network Marketing
The first, affiliate marketing, provides an income for thousands of people all over the world. Affiliate marketing can best be described as a retailer. Like all retailers you will get paid a commission for selling other people’s products.
One of the easiest and most popular ways to make money online is affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing can be done without owning your own website. You don’t physically hold the goods or exchange payments or inquiries about any of the products. All any affiliate marketer does is promote the products, the rest is handled automatically at the wholesaler and you get paid commission at a set rate (70% is not uncommon) according to the product.
One of the top Internet marketing affiliates is Rosalind Gardner. Her book, The Super Affiliate Handbook has everything you will need to know about making money online as an affiliate marketer. A former air traffic controller, Rosalind Gardner now earns well over $400,000 a year as a “super-affiliate” by doing nothing more than selling other peoples products online.
Network marketing on the other hand is a business in which a group of distributors is used to build and expand the business. An excellent example of this would be Amway. You not only make money on your sales but also on the sales of your team of distributors, or downline. Another name for Network Marketing is multi level marketing or MLM a system in which you can get paid on sales made by your team several levels deep in your downline. Multi level marketing is a completely legitimate business representation and should not be confused with pyramid marketing (which is illegal) where only the person at the top (usually the program owner) makes money.
Network marketing is a great way to build a significant income in a very short period of time. Choosing the right program and with a little effort anyone can make money easily and quickly with network marketing. In addition to making money fast, network marketing is a system that enables you to use time as a leverage to build a business that will pay you residual income for years to come.
The fastest and easiest way to make money today is through network marketing. With the advent of the Internet it is now possible to build a worldwide business very quickly, no matter where in the world you reside. The top network marketing company is SFI where network marketing is combined with affiliate marketing.
The easiest way of setting up a home based business that will earn multiple streams of income is to start your home based business by following an established model.

Make Money Online Working At Home As An Internet Affiliate Marketer-The Basics
Affiliate marketer or network marketer are two of the simplest ways to make money online from the comfort of your home. No specials needs are required; no hidden talents for success; cost is minimal or zero while the earning potential is infinite. Anyone who has average intelligence can become a network marketer. All you need is a willingness to learn, patience, and perseverance. The sky is literally the limit.
What is Affiliate marketing?
Affiliate marketing on the Internet simply means you are selling other peoples products for a profit online. There are two ways in which this can be achieved. One is by sending prospective buyers to your clients sales page or send buyers to your website where you list the benefits of the product. When a customer goes to your website you can “sell” them the item either by a product review or an ad; both of these methods can be accomplished through a website or a blog.
Another way affiliate marketers make money is to produce their own “info” products; but the majority of Internet marketers earn enough money without the aggravation testing and research on their own products that they therefore leave that part to others.
When you become an affiliate marketer one of the first things you need to learn is how to promote products online. There are several ways in which this can be achieved. One is through placing ads on the Internet through either paid advertising sites, pay per click (PPC) advertising, article marketing, placing banners and ads on their own websites or blogs. Whichever way you choose to advertise make sure you understand the advantages of all forms.
The Written Word
Article marketing is just one way in which to promote a product. You don’t have to be a writer to write a short article. You could pay someone write it for you. You then take the article and submit to free article directories on the Internet, called Ezines (ezine is short for “electronic magazine”). On each article you submit you will have a ‘resource’ box; in that box you put your name and a link to web page of your choice.
It is very important that you submit your articles to these article directories the sole reason being the largest article directories are given priority status in the search engine rankings. If you put your articles only on a blog or website chances are no one will read them.
Individuals who seek information about products will be more likely to read your article in an article directory, click the link in the ‘resource’ box for more information. Those who are interested enough will make a purchase through your website link and you will get paid the commission.
Because articles stay on the article directory site forever it is even possible that years from now a well-written article will bring the affiliate marketer sales.
What is “Viral” marketing and how does it help?
When you publish an article on any online directory the chances are pretty good that another Webmaster will post the content on their websites, providing the articles are reasonably well written. The webmasters are then required to post your “resource” box along with the article, which in turn provides a link back to your website (called banklinking). The more backlinks you have to your website from other sources your standings in the search engines will increase.
The most important part of any article you submit is your resource box. Anyone reading the article will then have access to your product or website and be able to make a purchase using your link.
