Does anyone out there make money with Amazon aStore or other affiliate marketing? If so can you teach me?

I want to learn how to do affiliate marketing using google adwords or something of that nature. I have seen some websites for sale recently but am afraid to commit to purchasing one because they could easily be a scam. So I figured, why not learn on my own. I am not looking to “get rich quick”, I just want some extra income. An example would be an Amazon affiliate site where all the products on my website are just links to products already sold on Amazon and when someone clicks from my site to Amazon and buys something I get a commission.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

I’m looking to make a little extra income. My wife is unemployed, I have two children and a stand-still job. If this method can bring me $300 – $500 more per month I would consider investing in affiliate marketing. If the majority of these claims are scams, please let me know or if you know how to produce the results as advertised please send me a link with a guide or a recommended site to read. Thanks in advance!!! One last thing, if this method is completely false please enlighten me with something else that may help. Thanks again!
