Have nothing to sell online? Sell other people's stuff

Did you know that most people are making money by selling or promoting other people's stuff online? That my dear reader is where the big bucks are at. Take for example some of the top bloggers on the internet. They are expert salesmen and women. They know how to convince their readers to part with a few extra dollars. One of the top bloggers that makes over $80K a year does not make most of his money blogging but he has 2 blogs. One of them is his hobby blog where he does reviews of cameras. He writes in his money blog that he recently made $17K in one month just by having a few ads to Amazon that showed the cameras he was reviewing on his hobby blog. Amazon has a really nice affiliate program that you can take advantage of. I actually make a few dollars from them every month too. If you have a hobby blog then you just need to join the Amazon program and put links to their items on your blog. Your readers need to buy something on Amazon through one of your links and I think that they have to buy the item without going away and coming back to Amazon at a later date for your link to be credited with the sale. The Amazon program also offers a full store you can put up. Keep in mind that Amazon sells everything, not just books anymore. Here is a sample of a large widget you can put on your blog or make a whole online store from:
