How can I put a affiliate program link on craigslist to start making money, or is it even possible?

I'm in the auto industry & I am tired of not being with my family I have got to do something, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks JOKR

I do not know if its possible, but I know its illegal to add something to a website without their knowledge and approval. Try starting your own website but making money is really tough nowadays!

Well JOKR, I don't even think Craigslist is a viable option for what I think you're trying to do. You want an affiliate business, don't you?

Your main objective would be to create a website that provides valuable, in-demand information about your affiliate program. You will not get what you're looking for in Craigslist. It would be an adjunct to your main marketing efforts.

But, yes, it is possible to put your link into your ad. Just write your ad and at the end leave your affiliate link.

Craig's list does not allow affiliate links, but there are sneaky ways around that. Get a domain name related to what you want to market and redirect it to your affiliate website, then advertise that on CL.

Hi Jokr,

There are many people today in this same situation from all works of life. Affiliate programs are really good. But it is not easy. I have been doing this over 5 years now. Education is the key to your success.

What I have discovered in the past five years is that, your learning curve will become very short, if you get together with an affiliate system that is already setup correctly, so that all you need to do is to send traffic to the site. This is where a lot of people fail. To get the links is not a problem, but generating significant qualified traffic to the site is where the problem lies.

Many people are not willing to learn the ropes of internet marketing. If you are willing to learn and implement what you learn, I will be glad to share with you, two of my most profitable affiliate setups. If you don't get educated in internet marketing, then you need to forget about affiliate programs. But if you are willing to learn, then by all means, it will help you get out of your auto industry and to spend time with your family. Many won't tell you this, because they want you to join an affiliate program and then off they are gone.

But yes, you can plug in to an affiliate program, that is ready and where you can learn how to promote your affiliate link, not only using craigslist, but social networks, forums, video marketing on sites like youtubes, metacafe and many other internet marketing techniques.

Like I said, the important thing is to be willing to learn effective internet marketing. Affiliate program rocks and yes you can quit your job if you learn how to do it right.

Here is a simple code, you can use to place your affiliate link on craigslist:
