There are fewer ways of making money with
the net than there used to be. Schemes that paid you money for just looking
ad ads or websites are long gone. It doesn't mean there isn't money to
be made though. Many sites offer some sort of associate or partner plan.
The idea is that website owners (you have seen our page on Free Webspace haven't you?) pass customers on to these sites and earn commission
on any sales. Some are slightly different in that if you introduce a new
agent you can earn a percentage of their earnings too. Note that many
of these schemes are untried and no guarantees are made. Two simple rules:
(a) check the scheme is legal in your country (some are "multi-level
marketing" & might be confused with "pyramid selling"
which is often illegal) and (b) don't pay anybody any money!

Clear out your loft
You can sell practically anything on Ebay. It's a great way of clearing out stuff you don't want but can't bear to throw away. Another idea - how about selling stuff you've pick up cheap at car boot and garage sales? You can become an affiliate too, earning even more money.
Join an affiliate scheme
One of the best ways to make some money is to join an affiliate scheme. What happens that you sign up as an affiliate, carry advertising and links to their website and they pay you commission when they make a sale to a customer you refer. Many will also pay you fpr referring webmasters who sign up. Some are better than others but the most important thing is to make sure the schemes you sign up with will appeal to your visitors.
Lots of companies run these schemes so we've set up a special area of the site with affiliate scheme information. Just click on the link above to get started.
Sign up with Vstore and you can set up an online store where you'll earn between 5 and 10% commission on sales. They actually run the business and supply the goods you just advertise and collect commission. After choosing between many different ranges of products you can then personalise your store with a range of styles and colours. You can also change the text on the home page.
Amazon run an associates scheme where sites referring customers get a share of the profit on items sold. general referrals eaarn less than those for specific items. The idea is to create an online store featuring items from Amazon's vast stock.
mutual.net is a free UK ISP with an added twist. They are offering subscribers shares - 1000 went to early customers. Money for nothing? Well maybe, the shares are not worth much at the time of writing, but it costs nothing to register and you do get free internet access!
