It is important to decide the product or service which you want to sell. You can sell anything from jewelry, cell phone, books to weight loss pills, laptops etc or any combination from the two. However, just figuring out a particular item won’t serve the purpose as you need to decide the product or service niche. If you are selling cell phones, then what type - iPhone, blackberry or both etc. Similarly, when it comes to weight loss information, you must provide your customers with the specifics of the product, such as reducing weights during summers or in a week etc. Pick a niche which you are comfortable in selling and further matches your skills.

Depending on your expectations, you will need to create a blog or a website in order to recommend others to use the product or service. It will serve as your platform to reach out to the intended market. You can create a free blog at bogger.com or Wordpress.com. However, creating your own website will require you to consume some of your own resources before the money gets rolling in. You can further choose article marketing where you write about the product and services and post it on various directories.

Essentially your model will consist of either a resource site, or a review site. In the former, you will constantly need to update your content so that users return to your site, whereas in the latter, you will write and rate the product which you are selling.
Make sure that you enter appropriate information, along with tons of keywords, on the product or service your are trying to deliver. Spread the keywords throughout the article so that it is easily found by your users. -

The next task will be to associate yourself as an affiliate. Make sure that the company is a reputable one and the products on offer are good quality. Whenever you will sign for a program, an affiliate link will be provided to you, where any person clicking on that link and purchasing the product or service will see you, the affiliate, getting a certain percentage from that sale.
