Making money with freebies sites

I have heard of a few ways to make money off of freebie sites but if you have a website or blog the easiest way by far is through affiliate programs. I am not talking about sending out spam or referring people to a website where they sign up thinking they will get something for free when they really won't either. I am not interested in scamming people out of their money at all. If I am going to give away freebies I want them to be real legitimate freebies that will help people out.

I know it is probably hard to believe that there are companies out there willing to pay YOU to give away stuff for free. These companies are willing to do this because the whole idea behind giving away a freebie is that once a consumer tries a product and likes it then they will start buying it themselves. Being an affiliate for freebies is really a win-win situation. You get paid and people get stuff for free. In this day and age everyone loves getting free stuff so now not only will you be helping people out but maybe even get some extra traffic to your site when your visitors spread the word about all the great free stuff you are posting about. At the very least it is something easy to post about or use for banners on your site that is not going to offend visitors or make them feel as if you are giving a sales pitch, after all it's free! I would suggest checking out the freebies yourself first before suggesting them to others or using them on your site. I always like to make sure things really are free and really are what they claim to be before using them.

In order to get paid to give away free stuff all you have to do is sign up with these freebie affiliate programs below.

Logical Media- Sign up with them and then search through their affiliate programs. Many of them are for freebies. Post a text link or banner on your website or email it out to your database. My Savings-Sign up and get approved as an affiliate to refer people to their freebie site. Incent Reward - Has many affiliate items to promote including freebies.

If you are already with an affiliate program you may want to search through their clients and see if they have any that offer freebies. I know Commission Junction also has programs that offer free stuff. So go ahead, sign up and start giving away freebies. You can feel good about what you doing and make money off of it at the same time.
