So when you write your articles, put the link either in them or in your bio. Be sure to describe the affiliate product in the article.You cannot make your article an advertisement for your affiliate, but you can make articles that would be used on your own web site and relate to your affiliate. The best place to put your links (up to two links) is in the author bio section at the bottom of your article. Some article submissions will not allow affiliate links, so put the link to your main page of your website and be sure that it has the affiliate link dominate on that website page.

You can make an article be a review of a type of product and include the link. But this is riskier and will not always be accepted.

When submitting an article to someone's individual website, you will need to make it clear that the author bio at the bottom of the article will need to be included if published on the site. However, if you are submitting to article submission sites, the bio box is always included, though on some sites you will need to add it at the bottom of your article in on other sites its a separate box you will need to put the information in.

By authoring articles you are becoming an "expert" in your field, and are allowed to "recommend" certain things. Be careful though, if the article submission site thinks you are advertising they may disallow your article. Again the best way to avoid this is to include your link to your website (and on your website, have the affiliate link upfront and easily seen) in the author bio box. While there are other ways to include the link, this is the safest path, and the easiest to avoid rejections.

To avoid rejection, write an article which gives quality advice and information. Writing the article and submitting it to article submission sites is a good way to increase you search engine rank, and be seen as someone who knows what they are talking about. Not to mention, it will increase your traffic and your profits.
