Hi, and welcome to SuperAffiliateTeen.com, where Teens Make Money Online.

I’m officially announcing my launch date as Black Friday! My website will officially be on the Internet on Friday, November 28, 2008 and ready to teach teenagers to make money online.

I regret not having been able to start this project any sooner because then I would have already helped you earn some shopping cash for this season. But, with school, homework, and cheerleading I haven’t had time to put all my thoughts and ideas together… and I have a lot of them!

Through this website I hope to teach teens how to make money online using the same methods I use to earn money using my computer.

My dad says he can’t picture me ‘flipping burgers’ or taking orders from snobby customers. I’m not trying to dis’ those of you that do… don’t get me wrong. I respect all my hardworkin’ peeps out there and please holla’ back with a comment below if ya hear me. I’ve just never been the type to ‘fit in.’ I’ve always had to make my own way, and I guess that’s why I like this Internet affiliate marketing stuff so much. That’s our new word for the day… Affiliate Marketing. You need to think it, smell it, dream it, and live it.

Affiliate Marketing is the promoting and selling of products and services on behalf of other companies. Whoa… I said you wouldn’t have to sell anything, didn’t I? Well, don’t panic! You won’t be selling face-to-face or door-to-door, nor will you have to buy or stock anything to sell. You actually won’t be selling anything. You’ll just be promoting a product or service for another company that will pay you for a sale, a lead, or just an e-mail address. How you go about doing the work and getting paid is what I hope to teach you within the next few days.

Teenagers can make money online with affiliate marketing. And just like a job that you have to report to, it takes work. The big difference between the two is that the amount of money you make depends on how much effort  you put into it, and not limited to the number of hours you work and your hourly pay. Teen affiliate marketers can and are earning a good amount of money using the Internet.

Among other things you WON’T have to do is sign any contracts, pay any money, buy any thing, do anything illegal or immoral, or break any laws. Some things you WILL have to do is talk to your parents if you’re not 18 yet, and get their permission to sign-up for certain things. One of those things is an affiliate network. Affiliate networks are companies that represent hundreds of other companies that have products or services to sell. You have to go through them to get offers to promote. Some companies also have their own affiliate program that you can sign up for. For example, Sears.com has an affiliate program that you can sign-up for directly, and not have to go through an affiliate network.

There’s many ways you can make money online through affiliate marketing, and we’ll study and use all of them. They all have their pro’s and con’s, and some work better for you than others. It all depends on your preferences, the offers you choose to promote, and how fast you want to make the big bucks.

I also hope to land some interviews with some teenage Super Affiliates that are making more money online than a rockstar! With their stories and advice, you’re sure to get motivated and inspired to follow in their footsteps, or like me, blaze your own trail. You’ll also get to see that they’re all kids just like us, but found fame and fortune by unleashing the talents that they had all along within them. You don’t have to be a genius or a financial wizard to do this… you just have to want it.

Please come back on November 28, 2008, so we can get started with some on-the-job-training for your new job… working for yourself!

In the meantime, here’s some homework… Check out my ‘Recommended Affiliate Networks’ to the right. Click on the links and read up on them. There might be a pop quiz!  (j/k)
