2 ways that I have made money online apart from affiliate programs are from using Adsense and Dropshipping on ebay.
Adsense is one of the best ways of making money online. It’s easy to set up and you can make money straight away. If you have no knowledge of html you can setup a blog or a hub page, write about topics that interest you and you can start making money once you start getting some traffic.
If you want to start making a lot of money I think that you can build a number of websites and blogs on targetted niche topics. This may take a while for you to setup to get good quality content and even longer for you to start earning money.
The first thing you need to do is think of a topic. You can get ideas by typing in adsense niche into google. I reccommend you looking into something you are interested in so you can write easily. The most important thing is then to do your research. You can use free keyword tools such as wordtracker. I also reccommend the keyword tool at SEOBook. Once you have found a niche with words that people search for and with low competition you are on a winner. You can check this buy searching for keywords, if you find that there are a few people seaarching it then enter the keyword in google. Google tells you how many sites match them words. You can then put the keywords in ” ” to find a better idea.
You can setup a free website with all the features of paid hosting. I use 000webhost which offers unlimited mysql databases (perfect for wordpress, comparison site, shopping cart all in one site) email forwarding, domain hosting, php plus loads of other features. The host allows you to build multiple websites in one account and have multiple subdomains.
You can get a free .co.cc domain name from www.co.cc
Get free traffic using the best of web 2.0. Use social bookmarking sites, use free directories using Directory Submitter.
You can slowly build a network of websites or blogs. It is important to make sure you have good content. I try not to use duplicate content.
The amount you earn will depend on your niche, your content and also where your ads are shown. You should always track your adsense pages using channels and then see what are your best perforimng ads. You can chop and change to see which are the best ad formats and see what happens to your earnings. Once you have found a good one stick with it.
Even if you make around $1 a day it is ok to start off with. If you maybe make a new website every week and build around 20 good quality websites and each of them pull in around $1 a day that’s $20 a day. Once your site gets older, you start building more links to it and get more traffic you could be pulling in around $5 a day from each website. You can then monetize it using affiliate programs aswell.
Another method of making money online is using dropshipping. You can setup a free online store at www.vstore.ca. You will need products to dropship and reliable suppliers with good prices are hard to find. One way is to find companies and ask them if they dropship and introduce it to them. It is important to find a niche makret in dropshipping aswell.
You can dropship products directly from China using Dhgate.com. You can then promote your products through Google Base for free. You can also dropship on ebay but you have to pay the ebay and paypal fees.
You can combine all these methods with other smaller methods of making money such as make money blogging & get paid to programs.
