Starting Out on the Web to Make Money

0 comments

This article is for people who are just starting to get online and make money. In this article, I will detail what needs to be done in the first few days starting out in the internet marketing realm. Please be aware that in most cases you will not start making money immediately online. There are some ways to earn money online in the first few days, but do not expect to pull in $100 or even $10 in your first few weeks. Regardless of what any website says, people did not fall into $1000 or $5000 in their first few days online. They laid a foundation of links, research, web pages, and marketing efforts before they were able to pull in large amounts of money. Keep in mind the old phrase Rome wasnt built in a day when starting your online business effort. It might be a week, a month, or two months before you start making consistent money. The important aspects are research, patience, and persistence. Take the time to lay a strong foundation and avoid the pitfalls of trying to make money online in a short amount of time. This is KEY starting out. If you fall down too many times, eventually you dont want to get back up

That being said, there are a couple of easy and inexpensive ways to start making money online.

1 Paid Surveys/Product Trials
2 Blogging and AdSense

1 Paid Surveys/Product Trials/Email Reading

Ill start off by saying you should be skeptical of any site that charges you money to give you surveys or try out products. When was the last time you had to pay someone to interview you for a job? Same principle. Before you sign up with any of the sites listed below, create an alternate email address in Yahoo or another Email provider. This can be your Survey/Product/Spam email address. This will keep your main email box from getting filled with stuff you dont want or need.

Now the sites listed below offer to pay you money for completing surveys or testing out products. Sounds pretty easy right? For the most part it is, but be careful with the product trials. If its a limited time trial, you may start getting charged if you arent careful.

Check out the sites listed below. These are ones Ive used before and have had no trouble with. They are FREE to sign up for so youre not in danger of giving up money with no return.

2 Blogging and AdSense

Go to www.blogger.com and setup a blog (short for Web Log). You can choose from a variety of templates. Name the blog something that will distinguish what the blog is about. If its about gardening, name it gardening tips or how to garden or make your garden beautiful. The title is important as youll see later. Once youve got your blog setup, you can start posting information about your topic. Once youve successfully created a post, go into your blogger settings and go to the template tab. You should have an AdSense link up there. Now you are asking, what is AdSense? AdSense is a program that delivers content relative ads to web pages. For instance, go to http://cheap-carinsurance.blogspot.com. Notice the small ads above and below some of the postings. Those are AdSense ads. How do you make money off those? A company or individual has paid Google to run these ads. Whenever someone clicks on these ads, the person who has the ads showing makes money. Granted it may only be $.20 or $.30 (or less sometimes), but its basically free money for the webpage owner. Now before you think you are going to make yourself rich by clicking on your own ads, DO NOT DO IT!!! Google is smarter than you think. I know of more than one person who has been banned from the AdSense program due to click fraud. Besides, if someone told you that you could make $.20-$.30 based on someone clicking on an ad based on something you wrote and they could do this 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week/ 365 days a year and you would pay nothing (NOTHING) for this to happen, why would you risk losing it? Dont click on your own ads..period!

Now some of you may be seeing a nice business idea here. If you arent, here it is. You can setup multiple FREE blogs on different subjects and have the AdSense code on all of them. This means instead of one page getting a few clicks a day, you could have 5 pages getting a few clicks a day. I would recommend updating your blog content every 2 or 3 days. This is crucial if you want your blog to get picked up by search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc. If you blog on gardening is specific to organic gardening, then you want to make sure you mention organic gardening a few times each entry and put it in bold. This will help the search engines pick it up faster. You can also use http://ping-o-matic.com to let blog engines know that your blog has been updated. More Traffic to your page = more potential ad clicks = more money in your pocket. See how easy this is? You are not going to make a fortune this way, but it would not be unreasonable with 5-10 quality blogs to make an extra $5-10 a day depending on the amount of traffic you are getting.
