A WH spin for this method:
Write a short e-book describing an auction arbitrage strategy. As part of this strategy, discuss auction sites that you are an affiliate of.
Provide your affiliate links.
Promote this e-book, free of charge or opt-in, on PTC sites like Clixsense or NeoBucks.
Make sure your copy and e-book cover appeal to the 'make-money-online' niche.
Target your ads to countries appropriate for your offer.
Watch affiliate commissions roll in. I have used PTC sites to great effect, you just have to be willing to give before you get.
I have not implemented this exact method, but it should work just fine with a little patience, testing, and tracking.
