I currently run a website where I generate affiliate sales income. My original intent with this site was to provide folks bonafide, useable information on how to start their own businesses. I created my own products and as an afterthought, threw in affiliates.

My first big sale (within a couple of weeks of starting the site) was an affiliate sale. This particular affiliate has remained my biggest income producer. It pays the highest commissions of any affiliate I have seen. I use several, including a few from Commission Junction (cj.com) which also generate commissions, but for the most part, those commissions are rather small.

If you go to my website, particularly the Internet Business Info page, http://www.smallbusinessstartup.biz/internet/ you will see the affiliate I am talking about. I started to promote them heavily through my blog too http://smallbusinessstartup.biz/blog/.

Interestingly, this affiliate (SiteSell)offers a really great website builder very reasonably priced. Check it out. It's a win win all the way around. You can build a highly optimized website through them and then promote them as an affiliate to generate great commissions.
