I've heard of people making $6k+ in a week with this method...
The Method
The summed up method: They make money by posting the latest music videos/songs on youtube then telling them to buy the ringtone at (whatever affiliate you decide upon)
Step1: Make a youtube account (it doesn't matter what the name is) After you do that sign up at
Incentaclick or
Commission Junction. (confirmation could take up to a week) Be sure to put your real phone number because they will call you to confirm your account.
Step2: Buy a
1 dollar .info domain from godaddy, then buy
1 cent hosting from HostGator. (be sure to use the coupon code FREEMONTH) The reason for the domain and hosting is to
set up a quick wordpress blog and put 2 articles of content on it so you will get accepted by Incentaclick and Commission Junction. This may be optional but people without websites can't sign up for Commission Junction or Incentaclick, so if you have the one buck and 1 cent then its worth it. If not then just sign up for the 1 cent hosting and get a free .tk domain, or something along those lines.
Step3: Now that you have one of the affiliates make sure you research ring tones and find the highest paying affiliates. Usually I get 8 dollars per a referral with Jamster, but you may find a different one that you prefer.
Step4: Find a new song (hip hop songs tend to be the most popular, but there are tons out there) All new songs are great to put up. I good practice is to use popular charts to find songs that will score you hits. It's also good to mix it up with music genres.
Step5: When making the video, it doesn't have to be the actual music video. Just put in some pics from a google images search of the artists. Sometimes all people care about is the audio, but if you're able to get the music video, have at it. Also, in the sidebar there should always be a link saying something along the lines of "
CLICK HERE FOR THE (insert song here) OFFICIAL RINGTONE!" You can also put some lyrics or whatever else you want to say.
Here's an example youtube video (not mine):

Search google for
youtube tools (they will help you out quite a bit, but not necessary)

(hopefully I'll find some more ways to make a little dough here soon)
