Two of the best ways to make money online today is affiliate marketing and network marketing. Although these 2 business models do have some similarities there are also some big differences in them as well. In this article we will discuss whether affiliate marketing or network marketing is the best way for you to make money on the internet. 1. In both businesses you get a product or product line to sell. This is great because you do not have to create a product of your own. The most successful marketers are those who use their own products and then tell people about them from a position of experience. 2. Most network marketing opportunities are less than $100 to join. You can join most affiliate programs for free. Some affiliate programs only let customers become affiliates which would require you to buy before you could start selling the products. Affiliate programs offering Instant commissions are like this. You buy the product and then are given a PayPal url of your own to advertise. 3. Network marketing offers a more realistic chance for residual income. You can build a downline of thousands of distributors and make money on their purchases and sales. With affiliate marketing you only get paid sales you make. There are 2 tier programs that will let you make money on people you personally enroll. You can not build a downline of affiliate marketers and get paid on all their sales. 4. There are many recurring sale products in affiliate marketing today. For example you can become a ClickBank affiliate and sell products that give you a chance to earn a recurring income. The same is true for multi level marketing. Most mlm programs offer autoship on a monthly basis. This let's you make money every month your customer is automatically billed. 5. Do you like people and social networking? If you do it makes sense to join a mlm business and build a team of your own. You will make a lot of friends and can make a lot of money as well. The Internet really helps in getting leads and following up with new prospects. It is very helpful with online training as well. 6. If you are more sales oriented, and less people oriented, affiliate marketing is the way to go. You can develop multiple streams of income doing niche affiliate marketing and getting paid by the click, lead, or sale. In summary the best way to make money online is a personal choice. You can make money with both network marketing and affiliate marketing, or you can specialize in one.
