Beyond The Newbie Stage

Many people like yourself have landed up on this page because you’re looking at the most fool-proof way to start your Internet business. Starting one isn’t as easy as you think after all the trials, difficulties and challenges you will face along the way and the heaps of competition you will discover online.

Want proof? Simply Google ‘make money online’ and you’ll discover how much competition you have – probably in the hundreds and thousands of them!

Worse still, some unethical marketers who want to make a fast buck out of you by selling all kinds of crappy and irrelevant information to you.

It’s misleading alright…no, it’s plain wrong to waste any newbie marketer’s time and effort like this!

Fact is, there will be ‘gurus’ and ‘experts’ who will be more than happy to exploit clueless marketers who are quick to draw out their wallets to make a ‘life-changing purchase’.

Lets get something straight…there is no such thing as a life changing purchase!

Even the best money- making blueprint will not work for you unless you put it into practice, and in most cases, actually making the system manifest in real life is the hardest challenge you’ll face…

Earn Money Online Through a Web Affiliate Program

So you think you’d like to make a little money online?

If you want to get started earning some extra cash on the Web, or even a set up a full time living online, there are lots of opportunities available and you’re only limited by your own imagination. One good way to get started is to establish a Web site or blog (short for “web log”) that is loaded with interesting content. Creating an interesting online presence with lots of unique content will allow your site or blog to be ranked in the search engines, and will bring lots of visitors to read what you have to say. Once you’ve established yourself and your content and you start to get visitors, you can join a web affiliate program which will allow you to earn money through clicks from your viewers.

So how does a web affiliate program program work? It’s really pretty simple: an online seller wants to get as many visitors to their site as possible, because more visitors means more revenue. In order to get more visitors, these online retailers offer to share a portion of each sale with those people who help promote their products, also known as “affiliates”. Web site owners who want to earn a portion of these sales simply sign up for the retailer’s web affiliate program. The retailer then provides the affiliate a unique identifier that allows the main Web site to track clicks from your site or blog. Once a sale is made, the retailer will then credit your online account with a pre-determined percentage of the sale or flat payment.

A web affiliate program is an excellent way for an online seller to increase sales, because all of the affiliates become front line salesmen for the product or service. Sharing a portion of each sale is the incentive that the retailer provides to each of his affiliate salesmen. The more affiliates an online retailer has, the more traffic they will receive to their site, and the more sales they are likely to make. Many of the most successful online sites have thousands and thousands of affiliates.

There are many web affiliate programs available for practically any sort of Web site or blog content you can imagine. One of the most widely known is the Amazon affiliate program. Amazon, the world’s biggest online retailer, sells a lot more than just books. There are literally thousands of different types of items available through Amazon, and if you sign up for the Amazon web affiliate program, you can link to any of those products that are relevant to your Web site and your visitors. When someone who is reading your site sees a product that they’re interested in, they simply click your Amazon web affiliate program link and they’ll be instantly able to purchase that product online. If they buy, then you get a cut of the sale.

An excellent resource for those interested in becoming affiliates is available from Ewan Chia’s Secret Affiliate Weapon (SAW) which promises to show you how to set things up once and get paid over and over again, probably for years.

Using Twitter As a Sales Tool

If you haven’t heard of Twitter by now then you must have been living under a stone. Twitter is everywhere, pop stars, tv stars and film stars all twitter. Marketers and sales people are also using it, as are everyday Joes and Janes just like you. At first site Twitter looks like just another online time waster for the bored to tell everyone who is following them about the boring things they are doing. If that’s so then why are all these famous people, and marketers alike using it?

Because it’s a great tool to get more exposure for yourself or your products. Twitter is a great marketing tool for making sales. But how can you use it? Surely your friends who follow you already know about you so they already know you and your products right?
True.

There’s more to it than that though. Twitter is a little viral tool just waiting for you to cash in on it. Imagine you have your ten friends following you, and they have their ten friends each who can all see that they are following you too. Then they might decide to see why their friend is following you on Twitter. So they also follow you. Then their friends can also see them following you and do the same. Before long you can have hundreds of people reading your Tweet (the short posts you make on Twitter are called Tweets).

So now you have an audience of followers reading your Tweets, and it’s growing exponentially as more followers followers start following you. Now you can keep them interested, and also add in the odd Tweet about your website or blog where they can find out about or even buy your product. Each time you Tweet and these followers all read it, they could be clicking on your link to a sales page or informative articles with affiliate products in.

There is of course a balance to be found, and you will need to keep the interest of your followers or they will stop reading your Tweets, but if you can keep your followers happy and keep adding more interesting Tweets then you can really use Twitter as a very effective sales tool. When you consider how quickly Twitter is growing, and the viral effect of the followers can you see how much it can do for your business? Isn’t it time you started Twittering?

How To Find Legitimate Internet Businesses

There are many ways to make money online but not all of them are legitimate internet businesses. Some, unfortunately, are scams, others are out of date, and others may make a little money but are not really businesses. Let’s look at these possibilities and discover how to find a genuine internet business that you can start to help you make money from home.

Scams

Some people use the word ’scam’ whenever they are unhappy with something they have purchased but this is unfair. The word implies that you have been intentionally deceived and defrauded. This is rare but it does occasionally happen.

Examples of scams are where you paid for a product that does not exist, or someone offers you coaching and never provides it. You can usually avoid these situations by checking online forums for reports on the product or service that you are considering. Be especially careful if the product or service is expensive.

Outdated Methods

When you are browsing ways to make money online you may come across some business ideas that are based on outdated methods. The internet changes very fast and any online business must be flexible in order to adapt to it.

For example a few years ago it was possible to make a lot of money with Adsense websites that automatically created thousands of nonsense pages to attract traffic from every imaginable keyword. Then the search engines wised up, the traffic dropped and the Adsense rules tightened up.

That does not mean that you cannot make money from Adsense any more. You certainly can. But you have to do it in a way that works right now, not a way that worked in 2005.

Is It A Business?

Many people make money online working for others. This can be any type of task from writing website content to working in customer support. Many people are happy doing this type of work but it cannot really be described as a business. Somebody is employing you, even if you never meet them.

There is a fine line between being working for somebody else from home and running a small business with one employee (you). My definition of the difference turns on who sets the price. Are they paying an amount that you either accept or don’t (they own the business) or are you setting the price and accepting clients who take it (you own the business)?

Where To Find Online Business Ideas

The best way to find online business ideas is to observe actual successful online businesses. Many people will offer to teach you to make money online with their ebooks and products but you can often learn more from watching how they sell this service to you.

Even better, visit a site where websites are bought and sold to see the exact ways that the owners are making money from these sites. It is hard to get an idea of the money making potential of a website just by looking at it, but someone who is selling you the site will tell you exactly how much money it makes and how.

You can see sites for sale at forums like Sitepoint and Digital Point. Look at the established sites for sale and click through to the details. The owners will often provide PDF downloads of reports where they explain their money making methods.

There is a huge variety of money making websites available to buy. Even if you do not want to buy a business but build your own, visiting these sites will spark off a ton of ideas for you. Be sure to write them down because the details  of these legitimate internet businesses will disappear after the sites are sold.

Best Way To Make Money In A Recession

The hands down best way to make money in a recession is to find a way of making money that actually uses the recession instead of suffering from it.

What do I mean by that? Good question. What I mean is that you want to look for a business that will not be affected by the recession, or even better, a business that will actually grow during the recession.

One example is dealing in used goods. When people are low on cash they will be buying more used items. So if you always dreamed of setting up a store that sells good but used kids’ clothing, for example, right now is probably a good time to do it.

But running a store in your local area takes capital to pay for the premises and requires a lot of knowledge about running a business, from consumer law to hiring staff. That is enough to put off many people.

A better idea would be something that you can do from home without any staff or overheads. Something that you can be making money while you learn the business. So what is an example of this? Selling or promoting goods on the internet.

We are so lucky to be having this recession right now. Does that sound crazy? It’s not, because this is the one time in history when there is a huge exploding market that is not going to be affected by a downturn in the economy. People are going to be buying more online because it’s cheaper.

Take the example of used clothing. Selling your stock online instead of from a bricks and mortar store means that you do not need any capital, you do not need any staff, people can buy 24/7 and you just deal with the orders whenever you want. What’s more, your customer base is not limited to the people who live in your town and pass by your store. You have billions of potential customers all over the world.

But better still, you do not even have to sell anything yourself. You can earn money online in many other ways. For example, you can be an affiliate, earning money by promoting a company’s goods for a commission. Set up a few websites doing this, drive visitors to them and you could soon be earning regular checks.

Even in the luxury goods markets, some people are still buying but they will be looking around for the best deal. So the best way to make money in a recession from luxury goods is to find the best deal and put it in front of your website visitors.
