If this is you, then just get over any fears or apprehensions about giving away good content at no charge. Just give this a little bit of thought. The last time you went to the grocery store, were there people offering free samples of products? Of course the point behind that is you'll try the sample and then want to buy the product. Exact same thing going on in the affiliate marketing world. Instead of just putting up a bunch of affiliate links to the products you are selling, write a review of each product. People will be more inclined to buy if you give them the pluses and the minuses in your reviews. You can more easily allow people to feel comfortable with you by using the approach of giving before receiving. If you run your own website and offer affiliate products, just remember who's always the number one priority - your site readers/visitors. Write your content for your readers, not just to sell products. Practically everyone can sniff-out a sales pitch pretty easily. If you offer high quality content that is useful, your readers will want to explore your affiliate links out of natural interest. Visitors are more inclined to trust a site that makes them feel like they come first before making sales. You can discover for yourself that websites built to develop relationships with readers will see more success than sites designed solely with sales material.

Try to use good business practices, always. Be efficient and fulfill orders as quickly as possible. Make sure that your links work and that the businesses you partner with are trustworthy. Only market the products you personally believe in. Remember... buyers will remember sellers! You know from personal experience that buyers remember bad products, and they probably will not do business with you, again. Tread carefully and your wallet will thank you for it. 

With affiliate marketing, you'll soon realize you can make money in many different ways. Don't forget, this is hands-down the most popular and loved method to earn money on the internet. Some people are happy to make a living promoting products that are thought up and created by others. You'll have the time to always be searching for something new to promote. There's no end to it. With some hard work and some patience, it is possible to earn a full time living just through the sales you make as an affiliate marketer.
