I really don’t go in search of affiliate programs for my blog – I just find the affiliate programs associated to the things I already use (themes, plugins, eBooks, courses, events, etc.).
If you need to search for something, you can start with looking for great books or products on Amazon that your blogging audience would like, sign up for their affiliate program (https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/) and start including those links in your blog. You can also start looking at affiliate marketplaces and using the search box to find products in your niche. Some places to look include:
Also, think about where you like to shop for things that your audience might enjoy. For example, I was about to write a blog post on my first camping experience. We had bought a tent from REI, and I thought I might as well put an affiliate link to that in my post. So I googled
REI affiliate program and surprisingly, they had one.
So anytime you are naturally going to write about a product anyway, consider searching for it or the store you bought it from and the words affiliate program to see if you can earn a little with your recommendation!
