Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I would like to start a research facility and want to know how to get started. I am not affiliated with a university.

I run various e-commerce websites and I’d like to branch out and have a referral (affiliate) program. I’m from the United States and my affiliates would be from all around the world. I was wondering from a legal and tax standpoint, what information I would be required to gather from my users. Would it be different for those in the USA, opposed to those outside the USA? Would I be required to collect SSN #’s or would there be a way around that?
I tried to do some research on this, but can’t seem to find any information on the matter. Hopefully someone can enlighten me.
Thanks in advance!

You will have the most success marketing a product that you have some knowledge about. This knowledge of a specific industry or product will allow you to research keywords, develop content and attract potential buyers. Think of what you have an interest in and the money will come. A niche is only profitable in relation to your personal knowledge and talents. If this was not the case, everyone would be involved in what seemed to be the most profitable niche for the moment.

Hi everyone!
..I really need your help..
I need to start and maintain a website-webstore based on an ARTIST’s writings to sell his art. I have NEVER made a website before and this needs to be very professional. I am willing to pay a maximum of $40/month. It must have card-payment/Paypal CHECKOUT, a collection of BLOGS, ability to hold multiple PHOTOS per product, a very visual INTRO PAGE with multi-language options, preferably a modifiable BACKGROUND image, AFFILIATE capabilities, and it would be ideal if I could start me off with a TEMPLATE which allows flexible MODIFICATION options.
It would be great if you could provide a brief mention of your suggested sites/WEBHOSTS etc. with their advantages and disadvantages also..
Please please please help !
Thank you sooooooo0 much!!!
