eBook Affiliate Program

I've launched a new eBook Affiliate Program to help promote my book on How to Earn Passive Income at eHow.com. Affiliate links are a great way to monetize your blog and earn extra money ... and can be another great source of passive income.


The eBook sells for $25, and affiliates earn 50% commission on sales they generate. You can link to the eBook from your blog, website, social networking site, email or other electronic media.

One of the best ways I've found to make money as an affiliate is to create content articles on a related subject, optimized for search engines and readers alike, and include a simple text link to the product or program I'm promoting.

Text links for affiliate programs seem to be more successful than flashy banner ads, in my experience.

You'll need a steady stream of traffic to your blog or content in order to sell products, so promote your work through social media, online forums and blog carnivals.

Best of luck ... leave me a comment if you have any questions!

My eHow Earnings eBook is Done!

I finished and published my first eBook!

How to Earn Passive Income at eHow.com: Residual Income for Web Content Writers

is now available at Lulu.com.

Five people have already purchased the book, and I hope they have found it helpful. I wish I'd had the information in there a year ago when I first began my online writing career. Writing for eHow.com has been a huge motivator for me to work toward building passive income streams.

For me, passive income is pure gold ... I keep earning money long after I've completed the work. This is great as a work at home mom, because it allows me to spend more time with the kids when they need me.

Working on an eBook

I made the plunge--I started writing my own eBook.

I didn't start writing because of all the hype about about eBooks and insane profits. No, this eBook came to me, I promise.

After fielding dozens of private messages and forum questions about online earnings and how to make money writing online, I decided to put it all together in a book. So that's what I'm working on -- an eBook on freelance online writing. it's actually more specific than that, but I won't spill the beans till it's ready. I'm hoping it will be fast to write so I can get back to my other writing projects.

I'm also hoping that an eBook will increase both my passive income and my writing income bottom line. I've had a successful work at home experience so far and would be thrilled to increase income, especially given the rising costs of everything.

I'm using some of the resources at All Freelance Writing's 14-Day eBook Challenge. While the challenge was months ago, the information is very timely for me.

I'll document my progress and eBook marketing ideas here, so check back for more posts on my eBook.
