(ii) If you have an already existing blog or site, make sure that the products which you promote through it are relevant to the niche of the blog/site. If you have a website/blog on gardening, do not try to promote fitness products through it.
(iii) A good thing is to buy the product from your own affiliate link and use it yourself. This will help you to understand the benefits of using the same. Personal experience will help you to convince people better.

They provide you with two sources of income -- one from direct sales and the other from recruiting new affiliates. Some programs may pay you a fixed amount for each new affiliate recruited through you whereas some may pay a percentage on their sales.
