Affiliate programs are a great option for monetizing your website. These programs involve selling products from other websites for a profit on every sale you lead to. Amazon.com offers a well known affiliate program that allows you to sell every item listed on Amazon. They have a control panel that generates links to items and earnings reports. There are many affiliate programs so you're sure to find at least one that fits with the theme of your website.

Another great way to make money online with your website is Google Adsense. You place a code snippet in your website where you want to display ads, and Google decides which ads to display based on the theme of your site. You must apply and be accepted into this program, so in case your site gets rejected there are many other online companies with similar programs.
