Exploring the World of Affiliate Marketing
Stuck at home? Want to make extra money without a car? Don’t have easy transportation whenever you want? Not a problem – you can earn a full-time income from home with just your computer, your Internet connection – and a willingness to put in the hours of work that it will take.
Introduction: How Affiliate Marketing Can Help You Earn Extra Income Without a Car

First things first – if you want quick riches – go buy a lottery ticket. This isn’t fast… you won’t pay your rent next month, you won’t even be able to buy a cup of coffee three months from now. What you WILL be able to do is make a full-time income day or night, waking or asleep, 24/7. The only problem is, it takes time to ramp it up. And you can’t speed up the process – it’s just going to take the patience of Job.
Affiliate marketing can be done at home, at the beach, at a park, while camping, pretty much anywhere but while you’re asleep or at the gym. All you need is something to type on, and an Internet connection. And you don’t even need the Internet much of the time, you can create content, and upload it later. No car needed.
Since you’re reading this – you almost certainly have everything you need to create a full-time income online – but do you have the desire and willingness to work? I don’t know the answer… do you?
Understanding the Basics of Affiliate Marketing and How it Works

Affiliate marketing is the very simple process of telling people what product they should buy that will solve their problem. Watch me as I tell you what hosting package you should buy – and see how I make money from helping you.
That’s really the whole process – you tell people the answer to what their looking for – you want to know how to make extra money without a car – I want to earn extra money with this website. We can team up, and both of us will win!
Now… doing this – influencing people to buy the exact product that will pay you for referring people, works very very very slowly – if you have to go person to person and spend time talking to them.
So creating a website – and posting your helpful answers for uncounted thousands of people to read is the way to a full-time income. And there’s just one wall stopping us.
That one wall is Google. You gotta get past Google to see those thousands of people coming to your website. Before you can convince people that you have the answer to their problem, you have to convince Google.
And this simply takes time… 8 months to a year or more.
This is why you’re not going to buy a coffee with your earnings next month…
Now, you might be asking yourself – what can you help people with? I don’t know the answer to that question – I only know what *I* can help people with. I’ve created many Affiliate Marketing websites over the years – and I’ve made money doing so – and always in hobby niches. But always in areas where I knew more than the average person.
What topic do *YOU* know more than the average person?

The first choice you make is going to depend on what your expertise is… and make no mistake, I’m no “expert” on Affiliate Marketing – I don’t have to be. I JUST NEED TO KNOW A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN YOU DO.
Is there anything you know a little bit more than other people?
Do you play guitar? Can you teach others how to play? Tell them where to buy a low cost guitar?
Do you work in a Doctor’s office? Can you tell people the best tricks to get low cost medical care?
Are you a whiz at basketball? Can you teach people how to sink 3-pointers?
Can you grow Cactus better than your neighbors? (I just saw a website on succulents that is making over $300,000 a year in profit!)
Once you’ve chosen a niche, it will be much easier for you to find affiliate products you can sell. Keep in mind that traffic to your website can always be monetized – whether you write your own book to sell, or just use Google Adsense to put ads on your site – you’ll make money if you can attract people to your site.
Crafting Engaging Content to Drive Traffic and Increase Conversions

So you’ve chosen your niche, you may even already have an idea of something to sell on your site, perhaps something from Clickbank or Warrior’s Forum – how do you get people to your website?
It’s simple, and it’s right in front of you right now – I sat down and wrote this post … I’ve worked on it for about an hour, and I suspect I have two or three more hours before it’s finished. When it’s finished and posted on CheapAffiliateMarketing – it will sit there for many years to come, drawing traffic to my site… whether I’m awake or asleep… whether I’m hard at work writing another post, or whether I’ve not worked for a week straight.
No car is needed.
What *IS* needed is 1,000-3,000 word posts… and a lot of them. As I’m writing this right now, I have 9 published posts, and 6 more ready to go. I originally started publishing once a week, but have upped that to two posts a week. I publish a post every Wednesday and Saturday.
If you want to convince Google that you are serious about how to make extra money without a car, you’ll need to do something similar. Look for questions about your niche (as I did right here!) and write an answer… the longer the better. I’m shooting for around 2,000 words with this post, and if it goes longer, I won’t cry about it.
The longer posts will end up ranking on Google for some of the strangest keywords you could imagine, but it doesn’t matter to you – it will end up in traffic coming to your website. And that means money in your pocket.
Tips and Strategies for Promoting Your Affiliate Links Effectively without a Car

Okay, I’m lying to you… for the life of me, I can’t figure out what a car has to do with Affiliate Marketing. I could own a car lot full of cars, and not manage to get even one more single person to visit my website.
What’s important is that you can build a website earning you a life-changing amount of money without leaving your house. No car is needed.
Once you have a website in your niche – and you are writing your posts, and posting them weekly, success is just 100 posts away… you can then take those same posts, and re-purpose them. Quote from them on social media platforms, and direct people to your website.
Create podcasts out of your posts, and again, direct people to your website.
When you get to the point where you’re building your email list – you can again, point your list to your newly written content and gain more traffic.
If you know anyone who has a large presence on Youtube, Pinterest, TicTok, Instagram, etc… ask them if they’d mention your website.

When done correctly, you could start earning money with as few as 30 posts, but your goal should be nothing less than 100 posts. With 100 posts, you’ll have a wide enough net of content to attract a healthy stream of readers to your website – and this translates to the answer to the question of how to make extra money without a car.
When enough money is starting to come it, you can then take a small percentage of it, and begin to pay other people to write content for your site. Your goal is to work yourself out of a job. You want the infamous “4 hour work week” – and its achievable if you’re willing to put in the hours to write good content for your website.
The future development of your website is going to be done with you as the manager, directing a team of other people who will continue to grow your site with fresh content. I plan on retiring with the income from this website, what about you?
Avoiding Common Mistakes and Pitfalls in Affiliate Marketing without a Car

Most mistakes can be corrected on your website – a website is not a static thing, it’s constantly changing as you add new content, correct old content, and perhaps change the way the website looks. Keep this in mind – your website is like a marathon, not the 100-yard dash… you’ll be working on your website for years to come, so don’t demand perfection right now.
The one mistake that you cannot correct is a lack of patience.
If you don’t begin with the knowledge that this is a long process and that making money from your website is as much as a year or more away – you’ll lose heart, and stop posting. That’s the death knell for your site, and you’ll never end up earning money with affiliate marketing.
I like to budget one day a week for this website. For 8 hours every Saturday, I’m writing new posts. One day a week to look forward to a lifetime of retirement income – is that so much to ask? People have turned their websites into million-dollar businesses – so is 8 hours too much to ask?
You can make many mistakes on your website, but only a lack of patience cannot be corrected in the future. You WILL make mistakes in niche selection, website design, website SEO, and many others, but you will correct them as you learn. My first website was created in the 1990s, yet I’m still correcting things for better results.
So don’t worry so much about common mistakes… only worry about not budgeting enough time to be able to write and post a new 1,000-3,000 word post every single week.
