6 Free Ways to Make Money with Your Website

What it does: Delivers ads that feature random items being auctioned on eBay

What's cool: With AuctionAds (which is not affiliated with eBay), you get a commission if a visitor from your site ends up buying what the ad is touting. AuctionAds lets you set keywords -- like DVDs or automobiles -- so you get ads only for items fitting that description.

Drawbacks: You get paid only if visitors buy something on eBay after clicking on your ad (unless they sign up for eBay -- see below).

What it pays: You get about half of the fee sellers shell out to eBay, which is typically from 3 percent to 4 percent of the sale price. You can also collect about $25 if someone who clicks on your ad registers for the first time at eBay and bids on an auction within 30 days.
