There are many ways to make extra money online from home for free. One of the best ways to do this is by getting into affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is a form of internet marketing in which you sell other people's products online and get a commission for it. The commissions for these products can be very high, usually between 50% and 70%.

The reason the commissions can be so high is because you would be selling downloadable/information products. These are products that can be downloaded right to the buyers computer as soon as he/she makes the purchase. Since they are downloaded like this, it doesn't cost the owner any money for someone to download the product. This in turn causes the owners of these types of products to give out high commissions to affiliates.

So how does affiliate marketing work? Well when you get into affiliate marketing you sign up for an affiliate network. Once signed up you find a product that you would like to promote. After you've decided what to promote you will get a unique link that you can use to promote that product. When someone clicks on your link it will take them to the product sales page. Then if the visitor decides to buy the product, on the sales page down at the bottom it will say that you were the one that referred the sale, and you will get the commission for it. These commissions can bring you anywhere from $10-$150 per sale, which can add up nicely over time.
