So you want to make money online, who doesn't? Who wouldn't want to make money sitting at their computer right from the comfort of their own home?

Lets start with the people who don't have a website. How can you make money online? Well you can make money through affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is basically selling other people's products to receive a percentage of each sale. If you want to do this I recommend joing clickbank (www.clickbank.com) or commission junction (www.cj.com). These are two of the larger "middlemen" for affiliate marketing.

So how exactly do you market these products? There are many many ways to do this and I will cover some of the basic ones. You can post on forums, advertise in chat rooms, advertise on services such as myspace and write articles (which is what I am doing now). Now these methods are all free.

Some the paid methods include PPC, paid targeted advertising services and paid classified sites just to name a few. The effectiveness depends on the time you put into it and also that you know what you are doing, which takes time as everything else does.

I believe having your own website is much easier. The reason being you can use all the above methods, but you will be directing everyone to the same place - your web page. Also when you have your own web page you have control over your sites SEO (Search Engine Optimization). SEO is basically things you do to get your web site a higher ranking in search engines. This is very important in order to be successful in this business. Do you ever go to the 100th page when you search for something? I don't think so.

Either way you go it is possible to make money online. Your success depends on how much you work at it. I know that is cliche, but it is true.
