A simple guide for newbies and those who couldn't care less about domains and HTML.
Every single day new people are logging on to the Net for the first time, and many of them are looking for ways to earn extra money. The problem is that most of these people don't have a clue about HTML, domains, web hosting and building websites.
The purpose of this guide is to show that you can make extra money without a web site. Even if you have been around for a while, I'm sure you will learn something.
The easiest way to earn extra money without your own website is to promote affiliate programs. When you work as an affiliate, you are selling other people's products, and receive commissions for every sale you make.
All you have to do is referring people to the product you are selling, and let the system do the rest.
There are several advantages of being an affiliate. Some of them are listed below:
You don't need to have your own product
Payments are handled by a merchant
No shipping of products
No customer support
No need to build a website
I recommend that you start promoting products found at ClickBank (CB). An account with CB is free, and there are over 10,000 digital products in the CB Marketplace to choose from. They send you checks twice a month, and everything else is taken care off.
The biggest challenge when doing business online is to get traffic to your page or affiliate links. No visitors = No sales!
If you like to write, you should write some articles. Articles can be submitted to Article Directories, and this technique is proven to get many visitors to your website. Check out a free resource called The Bum Marketing Method to learn more about the power of articles.
Here is a little known secret if you hate writing articles. Submit your ad to UsFreeAds, and it will show up in Google in as little as 2-3 days! Google has been using UsFreeAds as a resource for a couple of years know.
The above resources are free, but you have to invest some of your time. If you want to get visitors right away, trying PPC can be an option.
PPC means Pay-Per-Click, and this is exactly what you do. When someone clicks on your ad, you pay the cost of the click. A click on one of your keywords can cost everything between 10 cents and up to several dollars.
When dealing with PPC you have to be very careful, or you will get broke before you know it! Especially Google AdWords, where you pay more per click than in other PPC-engines. The competition is much tougher too.
Try some of the smaller PPC-engines like SearchFeed, GoClick and FindWhat, until you get a hold of it. There are also some great resources where you can learn the basics of PPC, like Perry Marshall's "The Definitive Guide to Google AdWords".
When your promotions are up and running, you should login to your CB account every day. Click on the "Reporting" tab. Here you can see what products you have sold and you can also see the name and email-address of your customers.
The next step is important! You must send an email to your customers as soon as possible and offer them your help. Give them a bonus if you have one. If you can offer them a report or an email-course they will probably sign up through your autoresponder.
If you do this, you are establishing a relationship to your customer. It will be a lot easier for you to sell products to an existing customer than it is to find new ones.
It can be done.
Good luck!

1). Display relevant ads on your website.
i strongly recommend this monetization way. It is very easy and only relevant ads that are related to your website will be displayed. Example of ppc to use on your website includes bucaj, google adsense and the likes. Once there is a click on those ads, you will earn. Even a newbie online can create an income channel through this means.
2). Sell products on your websites.
you can sell other people's products like books, cds, tapes, e-books and other digital materials on your website. Just like yahoo and msn. They give the world free emails but displays and sells other people's products and services on their homepage.
3). Refer others to a website and get paid.
this is very easy because it is free to begin. All you need do is to join as many websites that needs people. Login, generate a referral link and banners and display them on your website. When a visitor clicks on those link/banner and registers, you will earn a certain percent of what they earn. Imagine if you refer an active webmaster of user and he puts extra effort to earn money every month, you will always earn through him even though he may be unaware. It could also be referred to as pay per lead.
4). Advertise other peoples website
if you website is sophisticated and highly trafficked, why not try advertising other people's website and charge them for it. Just make sure you charge a token for the service you render web owners and webmasters. You do not have to make millions from one person, but when you have over 200 advertisers, that is real recurring income that would come to you.
Make Money With Adsense: The Tips You Need to Know
by IGBOKWE NKEMAKONAM | 9:11 PM in Make Money With Adsense: The How Tips You Need to Know | comments (1)
Making money with Adsense is easy right? You just set up a website or blog on a certain topic, copy and paste the ad code onto it and wait for traffic to come in. How easy was that? The answer is its very easy, but that won't get you any traffic or visitors to your site. And visitors are what gets you those clicks that earn you money, so you will need plenty of them. Sitting back after you have built your site won't get people to your site, you will need to work at it. In fact, building your site is just the first step, and as most people would also say it is also the easiest. Here are a few tips that will help you to succeed with adsense and make you money:
1. Get some traffic
There are many ways to do this, and depending on your website subject there are right and wrong ways. You need to get targeted traffic to your site, i.e. people who are interested in the topic of your site. A good way to do this is to find a forum that is related to the content of your site and then put links in your signature. Then post on the forum(s). Try to be helpful and informative and don't spam. Don't just create threads or posts that aren't useful to other people.
Article marketing is another good way to get some targeted traffic. Write some quality articles about the subject of your website. Make them interesting and informative and people will get to see them (and the link in your signature)
2. Create a lens of squidoo
This is an adsense revenue sharing site, so you can share the earnings from the ads on your page. Again, write about something interesting and informative. Comment on other peoples lenses and they may take an interest in your lenses too, but remember not to spam
3. Don't fill your page with ads
Filling your page to bursting full of adverts is a sure way to irritate your visitors. It doesn't make them more compelled to click on your ads, in fact quite the opposite can happen, they just end up leaving your site. Remember that less is more.
4. Don't use “adsense templates”
These are usually filled with non interesting content that appears on a load of other blogs or websites. Visitors have probably seen it elsewhere, and it just isn't that appealing. Write your own original and entertaining content. If you don't want to do this, you could always hire a writer to write some content for you. This shouldn't cost too much. Google will place your page higher if it thinks your website is not just a “clone” of other websites or blogs
5. Choose a high paying niche
Some ads will earn you more money than others. You may have noticed that you can get paid a certain amount for one click, and then a different amount for another? This is because the keyword that the advertisers are bidding on is costing them a certain amount of money and this changes for each keyword. They have to bid against other advertisers to get their ad displayed. The amount they have to pay depends on how many other advertisers they have to compete with. You can choose a competitive market to base your site on and get paid a high amount for each click. Although it would be a more difficult to get traffic to your site in a more competitive topic area, but the rewards are high.
6. Integrate your ads
Make your ads appear as though they belong on your site. You are likely to get more focus and attention on them if they look more like your sites content. Use the same colors or fonts as your webpages
Hopefully you can profit from these tips, and improve your adsense sites. Remember that people like entertaining, useful and content rich sites. They don't want to be bombarded with tons of ads wherever they look.
