Step 2.
Buy - yes buy - a good website builder package that will teach you how to build and upload your website. You can try to find, and get free website builders, some are available with your hosting provider, but with most of them you get few useful features, very little control, very few choices about how your website is being built and you have no idea how to make changes yourself if and when you need to quickly and easily - and you never really know what's going on!!
I currently use Microsoft Frontpage as my website builder - HTML editor - you may have it in your microsoft suite on your PC now - if not - then get it.
Frontpage also uploads your website to your host and therefore to the internet (most host providers have frontpage extensions as standard now days) . YOU have control of what you do, when you do it and how you do it, and you don't need to use or be concerned with FTP. With frontpage it does it all for you - easily.
This website builder instruction manual - based on front page - will tell you all you need to know - and a bit more. Click on this link How to build a website and select build sites from the left menu. There are also many other informational videos you can get there.

Step 3.
Register a domain name - (website name). Preferably one that reflects what you are promoting using keywords to help search engines find your website. E.G. This website is about Affiliate Programs and Website Builder and the website (domain) name is aptly (keyword) called Affiliate Program-Website Builder.com

Step 4.
Find and join a hosting site so you can get your website on the internet. Preferably get a paid one not a free one - why - it looks more professional - because you can tell if you have a free site by the URL address - its long and cumbersome with your name at the end - very obvious. Free hosting also has very few additions like maybe only one domain registration, no sub domains, no autoresponders, not frontpage ready, etc.
Just type in web hosting in a search engine and off you go.

Step 5.
Get some content - free articles, sellable information articles or products or affiliate links. Why - to make your website informative and maybe have visitors come back or recommend your website to others.

Step 6.
Find and join an Affiliate Program and of course put the links into your website. Read the affiliate program articles on the left for info on this.

Step 7.
Sign up with Google Adsense to help you along - not a necessity but a good idea.
You're done!
Now you don't have to necessarily proceed strictly in that order but its close. IF you get hosting first but don't have a website or content then you are wasting your monthly hosting fees until you have your site up so don't do that first - make sense?
Sound easy? - well its not as simple as that if you've never done anything like this before. I had problems at the start - and still have not mastered it!Preparing your content, your articles, your links is the time consumer, but you can do it.
