Hi AJ, thank you for sharing your thoughts. I found the breakdown of the three different business models to be particularly helpful. Most affiliates often automatically assume Pay per sale is the only way to generate commissions, while a pay per lead model would be more profitable.
I make these types of commissions every month without having to leave my house. I can work from anywhere in the world, as long as I have my laptop and an internet connection.

There are several offers at Clickbank, Shareasale, and Digistore24 which can be promoted without having a website. Some useful channels include email marketing, forums, social media, and running paid promotions.
Let’s assume you register yourself with an Affiliate Network and decide to promote a product which is, say, a Coffee Maker. You promote it with various means like creating websites, posts on your site, PPC advertising, banners and text ads on social networking sites. Now someone clicks on those affiliate links and buys one or more products. Then that will be called a sale through your affiliate link. Once done successfully you will get the commission as fixed by that merchant.
For the first year, you should be all about content generation. Don't worry about your site's appearance or whether you need a logo or not. If you don't have content, no one will be coming there anyway.
If you want to promote physical products, there’s probably a better place to do it than Amazon over the long term if your niche is somewhat specialized.
Before you get started you probably are wondering how much you can make and what types of ways you can get paid.
LiveAgent is a subscription-based help desk software that helps businesses manage customer support inquiries.
The simple answer is – creation of content when you have no money and advertising when having money.
AM is the quickest path to passive income especially for those who don’t want to burn their fingers with product creation and the secret is targeted traffic.
And from doing a Google search we did find that they do actually have an affiliate program.
It’s free to join, and according to Amazon’s operating agreement, “the Amazon Associates Program permits you to monetize your website, social media user-generated content, or online software application.”
Out of all the places you can post affiliate links, this will make it the easiest to earn passive income meaning you can make money long after you put in the work.
In the end, as the last involved party in affiliate marketing, we have the consumer. The consumer is a person who sees the ad on a publisher’s website, takes action (clicks on it, submits info) which leads them to the advertiser’s website to complete an action (make a purchase, subscribe to service). It is what marketers call a conversion.
Here is a great clip from Scott Adam as he explains his time as a loan officer at a bank and how he would decide which person to give out money to:
