You sign up with a company that provides products that you can sell. ClickBank sells digital (downloadable) products: eBooks and software. Commission Junction sells those plus real products. Amazon sells books and CDs and a lot of other stuff.
ClickBank is easy to join, easy to use, and pays promptly, once you have satisfied their initial requirement of having 5 unique sales.
Commission Junction (CJ) is a pain in the butt to use, very difficult interface, and almost all product suppliers require a manual approval, which takes a day or three, and sometimes you get rejected. Sometimes CJ delists a supplier for various reasons, in which case you've got to run through all your links and remove those to that supplier.
Amazon has a lot of widgets you can use to make marketplace malls and special ads, but they pay the least: typically 4% or 5%, so you need a LOT of traffic to make any money.
I have been using ClickBank for two years and recommend that beginners start with them, They have more than 30,000 products in many subject areas, all of which you can sell. It's easy to find products related to a subject, such as travel, or dog training, or massage, whatever.
Sign up with ClickBank here; it's free.
