We've all come across the adverts on the internet that pop-out like mad Toys about earning 'Thousands on Google' or 'Make thousands a day working from home!' These are usually joined with a jpeg of a couple grinning from cheek to cheek in complete and truthful happiness. Amazed by the idea we involuntarily click to uncover a story which quite simply seems like a re-written children's story from some place where money is everywhere.

Apparently you are able to in Your house for a couple hours a day doing next to nothing and cash just magically starts being sent to you. Suddenly everyday becomes Holiday, the loan is paid and all in the world is well.

Now I am not going to be the bearer of sad news but I'm here to be the prophet of some facts.

it's a fact that You are able to work minimal hours a day from home on the internet and make staggering sums of money. It is a fact that to many people looking at you sat there it will look like You're doing nothing at all. The Fact of the situation is it is not that simple.

Let Me begin by going into what Affiliate Marketing is.

When certain companies have products that they are looking to market online they without a doubt have to promote it. We know that you may be in possession of the most amazing product in the world but if it isn't marketed properly it will most probably go nowhere. To be honest You could have the AIDS vaccine but if You don't get it to the right Pharmaceutical Organization then it's going to help no-one. Could you try to think of having that wonderful serum and giving itto some hole in the wall company that has about 3 customers? What good is that going to do?

Individuals with services to sell know this and so after the product is marketable they now search out avenues to market it.

If the Individual has masses of cash to use on advertising and promotion then they can get ads on Prime Time TV, take out huge billboards, get whole cities blanketed in posters, radio ads, planes flying banners trailing off their tail wing, strippers wearing their custom made lingerie and a mass of other ways but also recall that the idea is to make money so promotion costs should be kept as low as possible within reason.

This is where Internet Marketing and Affiliate Marketing come in.

Affiliate Marketers get an account with a 3rd party website that will process the payments from the companies that own the products they are marketing. The 'middle-man' websites also give them a list of products that they can promote.

After discovering a service that they believe they can market an Affiliate will begin using numerous ways to market the service and for each sale they will receive a commission from the company that owns the product through the 'middle-man' website that tracks each referral with a special link given to the Affiliate.

Internet Marketing and Affiliate Marketing can be split up into 3 parts; finding something to market, knowing how to market it and knowing where to market it.

Without all 3 parts to this puzzle You'll be in the most frustrating of problems. Knowing how and where to market something is useless without being able to find something to market. Having something to market and knowing where to market it is useless without knowing how to market it.

What must be understood is that some of the amounts paid out can be quite substantial and some even pay on a monthly recurring basis per sale. Here lays the large amounts of money that can be made. Here also lies the problem as without the proper coaching or understanding of how to market a product there is no way to make money as no sales = no commission = no beach house.

The fact about most of the offers You see is that they will always leave out one piece of the puzzle or quite simply not explain that even though You're at home which is lovely You must treat Internet Marketing as a business.

Successful Marketers working 3-4 hours a day reached that stage because they understand fully the 3 pieces of the puzzle.

Reaching this stage as with everything takes time but when You do the rewards are definitely worth it.
