How to make money online with affiliate links

One simple answer: Persistence.

As reported here, you can (and should) make money with affiliate links in your blogs.

I've been using affiliate links in a couple of my blogs for about 6 months now.  I've yet to make BIG money...or that much, really.  But, I'm seeing sales and earnings, so that's a positive.

You should promote affiliates you enjoy -- and that you use.  Readers trust you when you establish that YOU really use the products you are essentially selling. 

Don't just choose random affiliates because you think they are neat.

Target your affiliates to your audience and to YOUR actual taste.  This will attract readers and encourage them to click.  And that's half the battle!

So, add affiliate links to your mix of income streams.  Along with ads, they can be a great source of income.  But, only if you PERSIST.  You have to keep at it, pay attention, and constantly engage.
