Working at home seems like a dream for a lot of people.
Most of us grew up thinking we would have to follow suit with everyone else and get a normal day job, work until we retire and then that was it.
Thanks to the internet though, all of that has changed.
Work at home opportunities are now abundant and if you have a computer and internet connection you can earn a high five figure income or even six to seven figure income, all just with the internet and affiliate marketing.
Affiliate marketing is a very simple concept that can have very serious results.
A lot of people use this form of marketing to generate an income right from their own homes with nothing more than their home computer.
But how do they do it? Well, the way affiliate marketing works is very simple.
Let's say someone is selling a product they created like a digital eBook that teaches you how to grow gourmet mushrooms from home.
You could create a blog about why it's great to grow your own edible gourmet mushrooms at home and send people through your designated affiliate link and earn a commission on every copy of the eBook you helped to sell.
The real goal is to generate traffic through your specific links so you earn more commissions for every sale.
You can even promote physical products through sites like Amazon.
com or eBay as well.
Using a blog to host your website and affiliate links to send traffic through is one of the best ways to make sales.
The reason is simple: blogging is easy to get into, set up and maintain.
You don't have to learn how to design websites or code anything and you can basically drag and drop everything you need until you're up and running.
It's an extremely "user friendly" way of making money online.
