If you are considering starting an online business but don't know where to begin. You can start by signing up for an affiliate program.

Why?

Affiliate marketing programs allows you to earn income from promoting a merchant's product or service. It works best if you have a website or blog.

For instance, if a visitor browsing your web site or blog clicks on your affilate link, it could result in a purchase or opt-in for downloads or newsletters on the merchant's site. So you get a commission because the merchant invested in the affiliate program for lead generations and sales.

Here is a list of eight strategies to increase affiliate commissions:

1. You must select the right product to promote. Get a product which offers excellant compensation. You should promote a product that pays a commssion that is worth your exertion and time. Also, it very important to select a product from an affiliate program that pays affiliates in a timely manner

2. Get a website and write a free eBook or report you can give away. Offer the free e-book with a double optin in sign-up. When a visitors signs up, you save their email address for future offers. The double opt-in sign-up will let your visitor know you will be emailing them in the future.

3. Create an online newsletter or e-zine, and promote your affiliate products in the newsletter. The newsletter allows you develop a relationship with your readers. This relationship builds trust which will result in future sales because your subscriber will have confidence in your recommendation and purchasing the affiliate product.

4. Choose an autoresponder for your website which will send emails, newsletters, e-zines, or other correspondence easily.

5. Write articles and submit them to article directories. These will provide a link back to your website where your affiliate products are advertised. People won't know how to pruchase products or services you promote if they never see your website.

6. Join a forum related to your niche and promote your affiliate product in the signature line of your posts or articles. Forums have tons of great information that you can use to promote your affiliate products.

7. If you are a newbie and cannot afford pay-per click ads, search for "free classified ads online" in any search engine You will get a slew of sites that offer free classifieds. Many internet marketing forums offer them too.

8. Use a portion of your commission payment to invest in your affiliate marketing business. These funds can be used to purchase pay-per-click ads and to track how successful those ad campaigns are.

As I mentioned before, spend some time on forums where affiliate marketers gather. You will learn of other options available to promote your affiliate products. Also, keep in mind that, to continue promoting your affiliate products as much as you can because if your are not promoting your products these eight strategies are worthless.
