Make Money Online (Beginners)

Making Money Online

Making money easy by surfing the Internet is something that is always a big question on peoples minds, we hear on a daily basis about people making 5 or 6 figure sums working online and I would like to share a few thoughts and ideas with you.

Platform

Having a platform to work from is always a great idea (although not 100% necessary), your platform could be a website, blog or even a group or page on a social networking website, there are many ways to create a “home” for your cause or product you are trying to promote.

If you are just starting out then no doubt you have come across pay per survey or quiz website’s and you may already have an account and tried, my guess is that you either got bored or found that you did not make enough money to make it worth your while, for this reason I am not going to endorse or link to any pay per survey websites!

To begin with there is some things that you need to know:

If it seems to good to be true then you should research more because it probably is to good to be true, many people loose money by paying up front, never pay money up front… ever!
If you need money NOW then online marketing is not for you, online marketing is something that does not happen over night but WILL give you a steady revenue stream if it is done right.
Use your common sense, this is the most important thing you need to be doing at all times when working or looking for wok online.
Get rich quick schemes only benefit the person who comes up with the idea, we have all seen it; the guy who has the nice car, nice house and holiday home, a nice banner on the website with floating money… and they are giving it away for next to no money???? – No money up front right?

To earn money online you still need to “work”, now this does not have to be 9-5 but the more you put in, the more you get back.

You will need a niche or topic, this will need to be something that you love and have a passion for, you will get bored otherwise.

When picking a niche you should think outside the box, people search the Internet for literally everything today right down to the smallest things around your home, you need to find a gap in the market, I bet you have in the past said something like: “why is there no ??? online” or “I can never seem to find a decent ???”., why not create it?

Some of the most profitable website’s online are blogs, you can get a free blog at blogger.com or Wordpress.com or you can invest in some affordable hosting and get yourself a domain name, most hosting companies have website builders where you can easily create a website.

Once you have your “platform” you will need a way to bring traffic or visitors to your platform, the only true way to do this is to create good quality information (content), so say you have picked your niche / topic and it is laver lamps, you could write about how they work, safety, tips, make your own (if such a thing exsists), where to buy them from ect, this is probably a small topic but then I bet there is a large market for them!

So you have now written about your niche and need to open the revenue streams, you will need an affiliate program, there are many places to sign up (free):

Other than that you can look for relevant website’s to your platform and see if there is an affiliate link, sign up and promote just like this weight loss website where you could earn up to 30% of each sale (about $15 per sale!).

After you have your platform, your links added and your content then its just about plugging your website and getting visitors to do the buying J
