Making money from your Web site is possible when you adding a few ads to your Web pages. It's easy too.
Yes, it's true. You can make money from your Web site. How much depends on how big your site is, how your site is organized and most importantly, what your site's about. Some subjects just make more money than others. It's true.
There are a couple different ways you can make money from your Web site, the obvious way being that you sell something that people will buy. But that's not what this is about. I'm not talking about selling items that you have to supply and ship. This is much simpler.
The first step is signing up for an affiliate program, and the next step is adding affiliate ads to your Web pages. That's pretty much it. Strategically placing your ads is important too.

Here are a few of the Affiliate Programs that you can sign up with to help you make money:
- Google Adsense - You may or may not be admitted into this program. Google has a lot of rules about who can and can't use their program. If you do get in, remember to never click on your own ads. This is a pay per click program, and if you get caught clicking on your own ads, and you will, you will be dropped from the program fast. These ads are mostly text ads, but are very eye catching and are self-updating. By this I mean that you place the code on your page for an ad and Google figures out which ads to put on which pages for you. This is really easy and is a big money maker for a lot of people
- Amazon.com - This program is a pay per sale program. You place a link to a specific product on your Web page. If someone clicks through to Amazon.com and buys something, you make money. A lot of people buy from Amazon, so if you place the right ads on the right pages you just may make money from this.
- Commission Junction - Use with caution. This is probably one of the biggest affiliate programs on the Net. Because of this, there are some rules you need to know. If you don't make money in six months they will charge you a fee and close your account. I'm not sure of the exact rule, but I had this happen to me once. This is a pay per sale program, and they have a lot of companies to choose from.
- LinkShare - This is also a pay per sale program. They have a lot of companies you can choose to use. Place ads for companies that are similar to your site, and don't choose too many. It's tempting to choose a lot of different companies to place ads to but don't do it. Using the same ads on many different page is actually better for getting your readers to click on them.
- Affiliate Fuel - Some of these ads are pay per sale and some are pay per lead. The companies advertising here are different than the kinds of companies and ads you will find on other affiliate programs.
- BeFree - Very similar in structure to LinkShare and Commission Junction. This is a pay per sale program.
