Pay-Per-Click

Of course you will need to use your referral link in order to get people signed up underneath you. If you have about $100 you can get tons of people to sign up. The trick is to use a pay-per-click advertising program to get people to sign up. Essentially you bid on keywords that have to do with the website you are working for.

Few people will bid on those terms so you can get clicks for about five cents and have a pretty high conversion rate since people are already reading about that program and want to join. $100 can get 100 people underneath you and that can translate into big bucks depending on the program.

Forum Signatures

Buying forum signature links can be a very cost-effective way to get your name out. Most websites discourage you putting affiliate links in their forums, but usually say nothing if the link is in the signature. Even somebody that only posts four or five posts a day on a forum can make you a lot of money because you only have to pay them a couple dollars.

The great thing about doing this is usually those posts are retroactive so every single post they have ever made will show your signature if you make it eye-catching enough then you should have no problem getting lots of people sign up underneath you. Just make sure the person keeps your affiliate link in there and doesn't switch it out with their own because that happens quite often.

Yahoo Answers

Using Yahoo answers is a great cheap way for people to see your affiliate link. After you achieve level II you can post pretty much any URL that you want when answering questions. Just doing a quick search for that particular program will match you with all of the questions somebody has asked about it.

If there aren't any, feel free to ask questions and then answer them yourself so that anybody that searches for it in the future will find your affiliate link. I can't guarantee that millions of people will find it, but anybody who does search for it will most likely click on your link rather than type it in the address box.
