In this article I'm going to talk about making money with articles and where to find affiliates for your niche website. To make money with articles that you place on websites, you will also need a variety of good affiliate programs that will help you to generate more revenue. That is why it is important that you know where to find affiliates and that you choose the best affiliates for you and your niche site.

When you pick an affiliate, it is very important that you determine which companies you will profit best from based on the frequency that the product is likely to sell. There are several types of affiliate programs and some will offer you more money from a sale than others will. However, before you get hazy-eyed by dollar signs, remember that some products are bound to sell more than others. If you sell on product four times a year from an unknown company that gives you $100 per sale or sell a well known product 3 times a week at the rate of $10 per sale, then you will make much more money with the $10 per sale product.

Often times large well known companies will offer a very small profit per sale because they are established and know that their product is likely to sell well. Small, unknown companies, on the other hand, need all of the promotion they can get. Also, because these companies are unknown, their products are more likely to sell less frequently.

When picking affiliate programs to promote on your site, the most important rule is to pick products that would be of interest to those who would likely visit your niche site. Otherwise you will be promoting a product to a group of people who do not even want nor need it. If your niche site is about parents of young children, then simply promote baby products etc. If you niche site targets gardeners, then promote gardening products. Therefor, if you're going to promote gardening products to parents of young children, you are almost guaranteed to not make a profit no matter how much money the affiliate program offers for a sale.

Lastly, there are two main ways to find an affiliate program for your niche website. You can sign up with a company that manages the accounts of hundreds of companies, big and small, and apply for the products within these accounts or you can do a web search for companies that would match well with your niche, visit their websites, and see if they advertise an affiliate program.
