In order to make money in the field of affiliate marketing, you will need to promote the affiliate products using the affiliate links. You can post these links on forums or blogs. Yet I will suggest you to promote the links using your own website.

So, the question here is how you should create and design the affiliate site. As a matter of fact, you do not just create a site without any plan. You will need to consider the following issues when you are designing the site.

#1 You will need to first of all search for some affiliate programs. If it is possible, you should search for a few programs which will provide products in the same niche. To this end you can try to see if networks such as Commission Junction and Azoogle to see if there are such products.

#2 In most cases you will be creating a content site. You have to ensure that you are creating a website which is related to the products you have found. You will need to create a website which is on a particular niche related to the products.

#3 The contents of you website should be related to your niche. If you are creating a site on wedding, you will need to make sure that the articles you post on your site are relevant to this topic.

#4 You may think that you need to have a lot of fancy graphics or images in order to attract the visitors. However, the fact is that a simple site can also work very well. However, you will need to make sure that the articles are easy to read and the site is easy to navigate.

#5 You may consider hire a ghost writer to help if you are not really good at content creation. However, you will need to tell the writer clearly the tone and style of the articles you would like to have.

#6 One last point is that, you will need to make sure that you do not join too many programs. In most cases, you will need to create one website for each program. And you may not have the time to promote so many programs.
