The arrival of the Internet has made things so easy. Need information? It’s only a few clicks away. Need to buy something? That too is just a few clicks away. Want to make money? That, too, can be just a few clicks away.
Being able to make money on the Internet is very attractive. There is no need for office space. Expenses can be very low. And if you sign up with an affiliate marketing program, there is no need for inventory.
At lot of money can be make with affiliate marketing but it is going to take time and hard work. Yes, you can set your own hours. You can work in your pajamas from home. You can work anywhere, even on vacation, if you have Internet access.
But there is still a lot of learning and work involved. Affiliate marketing certainly makes it easier to earn money on line. You don’t have to design your own web site because there are others that can do it for you. Affiliate marketing experts are available with advice, tips and hints. The people who run affiliate marketing networks want you to succeed. If you make money, they make money too. It’s a win-win situation for both of you.
That’s why I like MoreNiche. It has pages and pages of guides and tools that I have read and they are excellent. If you are new to affiliate marketing, sign up at MoreNiche. Even if you decide not to promote any of their products, the signup is MORE than worth it because of all the information available to new affiliate marketers.

Use ‘Content’ As An Affiliate Marketing Tool
A lot of affiliate marketers want to be able to work just a few hours a week and still make money online. The simplest way to do this? Content! Build a site that is so packed with good content that when a web surfer visits, they’ll want to come back again and again.
So how do you do this and for little, or no, money. There are several resources available. There are a lot of article directories on the Internet, such as ezinearticles, and you can use the content as long as you direct it back to the original article. Free resources are a great way to get your site started.
At some point, you’ll need to start writing original content. And the more original content the better your site will be.
You can check out PLC (Private Label Content) articles. These are not free and require a subscription fee. PLC are articles, e-books and manuals that are free to the subscriber. In general, they can be used any way the subscriber wants with a few restrictions such as not being able to claim copyrights.
PLC articles have the advantage of not having to add a resource box or a link back to the ‘original’ article. Depending upon the niche, a subscriber can expect to see 10 to 40 articles a month.
Another source of excellent content is the affiliate market site you are signed up with. The MoreNiche affiliate program is loaded with guides, tools and pre-written content. It is the easiest way I know of to get an affiliate web site up and running with lots of interesting content.

Write Articles to Improve Your Search Engine Rank
One of THE best ways to improve your search engine rank is to write articles for an online article directory. The nice thing about writing articles is that you can use it to promote either your whole site or a specific page within your site.
The Author’s Resource box is what you use to direct your reader. But for people to read your Author’s Resource box they need to read your article.
Your first challenge is coming up with an interesting title. Your title is what will or will not persuade people to read your article…all the way down to the Resource.
So how do you pick a good title? Lots of good titles start with ‘How do I…?’, ‘How can I….?’, ‘What is the best way…?’, etc. Once you’ve chosen a title, it’s time to check out the competition. Put the title into Google’s Search Box and check out what comes up. How many thousands of sites are you competing with? Maybe you will need to tweak your title, such as changing ‘How do I’, to ‘How you can’.
But a title with few competing sites could also be a title with limited searches. Next, put your title into Wordtracker and check out the search numbers. Maybe ‘How can I’ has a lot of competition but it might also have loads of searches.
Using these two tools, continue to tweak your title until you find the right combination of less competition and more searches. Then write an interesting article and put grab your reader all the way down to the Resource Box. And then make the most of the Resource Box. Direct your reader to your site by offering more, such as more information or a freebie.
