Affiliate marketing
The best method, hands down, is affiliate marketing. Though you need to have a decent amount of traffic, once you build the trust of your audience, sky is your limit.

For these types of recommendations, you first need to have some following in the niche of your interest.
These are few of the popular niches for affiliate marketing :
Health & fitness
Technology
Finance
Beauty & Fashion
Lifestyle

After selecting a niche, pick a platform to build your authority over the topic. Develop sufficient knowledge, and become a trustworthy and go-to person for your niche.

Instagram etc.
3. Add relevant affiliate products
After that find only products that are relevant to your niche that you have used or at least would love to, and sign up on their site to create an account.
