Do you want to earn affiliates commissions working from home? Want to enter the world of ecommerce without having to worry about customer service, stock levels or supply chains?

For many people making a career out of affiliates marketing this is a very lucrative way of making money, and one that doesn't take too much time out of their day.

However, many people are under the misconception that, before you can be an affiliate you need to spend a lot of time and money developing a site which can then be used to hold the affiliates links.

Thankfully this is not true, here are six ways that you can still earn lots of money from affiliates commissions without worrying about setting up a website.

Lets take a look now at all the potential of earning commissions from affiliates programs.

Forum Posts

You should know what a forum is. It's a place where people with a certain interest, or people from a certain location get together and talk about everything that interests them.

It's also an excellent place for affiliate marketers to find targeted visitors that are more likely to visit a site.

Here's an example:

Let's say you're interested in car modification and 'rice racers' there's a forum you happen to be an active member of and you are also an affiliate for a car gadgets site.

Because you are already a respected member on the site you will be able to seed your posts with links to products from the car gadgets site and members on that forum will gladly go to those links because they are interested in them.

As rules of thumbs go it doesn't pay to absolutely spam a forum as you will quickly lose credibility and will not get the same clickthrough rate from leads as you would if you were a respected forum member.

Social Network Sites

Another good place to get affiliates from is social network sites like Facebook, Twitter, delicious, dig, and similar social networks.

Like forums people with similar interests tend to gather together at social network sites.

The result?

You will easily be able to build a reputation as a person who links to interesting sites and knows all the best things to buy, resulting in high affiliate sales and many impressed friends.

Youtube

Videos are great ways of attracting leads to products. You don't even need to have the product in your hands as a slideshow with music often does just as good a job.

But video reviews (especially positive ones) do tend to get great clickthrough and conversion rates.

Blogs

While setting up a blog might seem as complex as setting up a website it doesn't need to be nearly as involved.

Blogspot, wordpress, typepad and many other blog hosting sites allow you to put together a blog with little or no coding experience.

And with sites like Ezine articles about you don't even worry too much about having to find content.

Review Sites

A review site is an excellent way to generate commissions because online customers always want to know what a product or service is like before putting down money on it.

One word of advice, try before you tell other people to buy and give relatively honest reviews otherwise your username will lack credibility in the future.

Adwords

Google adwords and other site engine pay per click programs can actually work in your favor. While it won't be free it can be a high turnover generation tool if handled correctly.

There you have it. With just a little time and a little effort you too could be earning healthy commissions online without a website. So check out the possibilities of affiliates programs today.
