Copy your affiliate link, which is the URL you will advertise to generate sales. This special link tracks how many sales you generate and the total amount of your commissions.

3. Go to an Internet classified ad website. Many of these classified ad sites exist, including USFreeAds, Adpost.com, and Classifieds For Free. Register a free account on the classified advertisement site, making sure to input your email address and choose a user ID and password.
