Recently,I was told about making money on line, i set up a website, to become AMAZON ASSOCIATES, if people buy something from AMAZON through my website, I can earn a little. Actually I'm new for making money on line, I have doubt on it, if you guys have some kind of experience about it? Pls share your comment, will it be successful to making money? actually they ask us pay some money on how to teach me to do it? will they cheat to me? I'm totally lost....

You should always think twice if there is a money involve. Because most of the sites that ask money from a member are scams. Go check some review about it first. And if you want a proven site that pays it member your on the right site "MYLOT" just spend your time here and you'll make money.

haha don't ask them because they have good answers for that because they already expect that some people will ask that question. It is still up to you it's your money but just be careful remember it's hard to earn money online don't make it worse by losing money of your own.

This is what I was reading about amazon.com I think that you can continu doing research and educate youself without giving your money to anybody to teach you something that maybe you can learn by investigating in theinternet.
Remember you are trying to make money, no trying to make the others get your money.
Amazon Associate Benefits
This is the one thing that Amazon has over just about any other affiliate program available today, and when it comes to Christmas shopping you really can’t find a better way to make money online.
This is because Amazon features a wide variety of products, and if a consumer finds one thing on their shopping list that is available at a lower price than anywhere else through your affiliate link chances are in your favor that they will do the rest of their shopping with Amazon.
This equates into a simple $14.99 DVD turning into a $400 sale very easily, especially during the holidays.
With all affiliate marketing, and specifically when trying to make money with Amazon you should be promoting products that are related to your niche. Reviews are always good, and statistics show that text links convert the best.
Of course you could always launch a webstore specifically designed for promoting Amazon products, and you will benefit greatly once you start ranking in the search engines.
Promoting Products With Organic Search
When it comes to organic search, many people try and argue that Amazon is such a powerhouse that trying to rank above them for specific products is a waste of time. Nothing could be farther from the truth than that.
Yes Amazon.com is a huge site, probably the biggest retailer site in the world, but this also works against them. This is because there is no way for Amazon to optimize each and every one of their millions of pages.
This works in your favor, because often times your website can rank for particular products quite easily because it is considered fresh content.
To receive an even greater benefit, always change your titles and rewrite product descriptions. Usually several quality backlinks coupled with social bookmarks will easily get you ranking above Amazon 4 out of 5 times.
It is far too easy for a webmaster to make money with Amazon and you should always be looking for products that are related to your niche to start promoting!

The main question to ask is if everything was set up directly through amazon itself. It could very easily be a scam far as the lessons, but there are ways to get royalties from amazon sales. The main way I know of that is for free is to do a squidoo lens that has an amazon module on it.
