The final step is to launch your Network Profile completely. You will need to create a short biography and indicate how you want to drive traffic to your merchant.
Becoming a successful affiliate still requires work. Having a proven blueprint to get you there definitely helps out. This can speed up the process, help you make more money faster, and learning from the masters is a great way to become one yourself.

When you join an Affiliate program and choose the products that you want to sell, sellers provide you with a unique affiliate code that you can use to refer traffic to the target site. Most affiliate programs will offer ready made text links, banners and other forms of creative copies whereby you only have to copy the code and place it on your website to start referring traffic. When interested visitors click on these links from your site they get redirected to the product site and if they purchase a product or subscribe to a service you as the referrer make a commission.
Build relationships. This is a key feature in affiliate marketing. You have found your audience, you know what they want and need, now the only thing to do is to find who they look up to. Who do they share the most, or talk about with others? These are the influencers in your industry and they will have the most impact on the people in which you are trying to place your product in front of.
