Therefore, you are going to have to sell a lot of products depending on what you are promoting. That said, there are affiliate programs that pay a lot of money for sign ups or other forms of action which include a purchase. Even though you are only making a percentage of the full sale, you could still earn a lot of income from being an affiliate if you promote the right products. With other forms of Internet marketing when you sell your own products, you will be able to keep every penny you earn.
