I don’t know

Could somebody please explain how does affiliate marketing work, and how do people make money from it.
P.S: I need only answers no links to join some groups and thereby asking to pay certain amount to proceed. Thanks.

There are various types of affiliate marketing "techniques" to make money, but the most common way is to join a company’s affiliate program and start getting people to go to their website through link you may have on either a basic website, blog, or social media site etc… The links that you provide for people click on to go to an affiliate company’s site tell the affiliate vendor’s what web site sent them the customer and will track how much commission the affiliate marketer will get (which usually based on sales) and will send payment to the affiliate who directed the customer to them.
Many affiliates who are profitable at this business will use their websites to harvest emails "legitimately" first. They do this by providing good content on their sites that readers are interested in. They then will ask for an email address to which they might send a free e-book, have a newsletter to subscribe too, or perhaps have a very educational video that can be watched. Many good marketers will then send good legitimate content to their potential customers that is useful to them, then "soft sell" sell them a product that will give them a commission for sending their buyer to the seller’s site.
The Super Basic Steps of Affiliate marketing in 5 steps:
1. Put up a website
2. Sign up for an affiliate program that you feel has products that you have the ability to promote well
3. Add the affiliate links that are provided from the affiliate program you signed up with to your website.
4. Continuously work to Optimize your site to be found in the major search engines and get visitors
5. Find more products and keep promoting and building your site

Affiliate marketing is a REAL business. If you take it seriously and work hard at it, I honestly feel anyone can succeed. It’s hard work, but well worth it. I heard that 99% who attempt internet business of people never make any money, and it’s mostly because they quit too soon.

There are many books you can get at local libraries that can get you educated on the subject. I recommend watching YouTube videos by lisa3876, my wife says she was the easiest for her to understand the concepts and really excited her to try and get started.

By the way, when doing your research, be warned that affiliate marketing "educational" websites are usually trying to sell you something and can be VERY persuasive. Try not to buy anything if you can help it unless you are 100% ready to proceed and the seller has a minimum of a 30 day return policy so you have ample time to really review it. I’ve spent thousands on my education to build my affiliate business and can tell you that if you work at it consistently, it can be done.

Good luck!

I just started a strictly internet businees around a week ago, and I am curious to hear what the experiences have been from other internet business owners.

All topic-related stories are welcomed, but I am ideally looking for :

1. Internet businesses that opened within the last 2-3 years.
2. Retail (preferably clothing) related

How did your business do at the start? Was it dead and then started to build slowly? Did it start off hot and then die out? Did it start hot (or not) and has it pretty much stayed that way the entire time?

Nothing happens over night I dont care what it is. My Online businesses started off as pure crap and I had to work 2 full time jobs. But that was 3 years ago. Now im self employed. just remember when your in business for yourself to save as much money as you can or to invest in other things because their will always be up and down moments.

I am currently an international student studying in California under an F-1 Visa. A friend of mine asked me to take part in affiliate marketing with him but I am not sure whether this is permissible under F-1 Visa requirements in the United States. Can someone help me please?

Legally, I do not think you are allowed to do so. You certainly cannot accept checks from an Affiliate.
If your friend would incorporate, and provide some type of service to the student body (ie: computer help) in addition to affiliate marketing you may be able to accept payment from his corporation.

It is somewhat doubtful that the USCIS would approve something like that.

My advice? Help your friend out, and have him buy you beer, food, books, etc.

Actually I am considering getting into Amway’s MLM(Multi Level Marketing) business. Can anybody tell me, how is it? I mean is it scam or c an we really get rich by working as the Individual Business Owner. It will be appreciated if anyone who has done it or doing it, tell about their experience..
Thanks in advance

It’s not a scam but very few people actually make much money out of it. The products are nothing special and are a bit overpriced. There is a wealth of stuff on the internet about them.

I tried it a long time ago and never made much out of it.

I don’t want to make spam, I only want to promote my business, by email marketing. I need some real good, and long email lists, if you can help me, please tell me a site for FREE from where can I get this. Thanx in advance

No..free..lunch……….you have to pay for them………..

And can you tell me if multi-level marketing works at all? I know that pyramid scheme is illegal, so I want to know if that’s the same as MLM.

MLM works and is the vehicle responsible for helping many people on the road to find financial independence, typically within 2-5 years.

There is, however, much confusion and misunderstanding concerning this business model.

A pyramid scheme has no real product so commissions are based on bringing new people into the scheme who in turn also bring new people into the scheme. It’s usually the people at the top that get the most while those at the bottom get very little. Eventually all pyramid schemes collapse because there is no real product being sold.

MLM, on the other hand, usually has a very real product that is sold either by retail or through members personal purchases (usually both). Members are encouraged to build a network of distributors to market the product.

In MLM you can earn more than those at the top if you apply some effort.
In a pyramid scheme you can never earn more than those above you, so when investigating an MLM company see if you can find out if there are people earning more than their sponsors, (this is the crucial test to weed out pyramid schemes)
