What is the best way to make money on the Internet?

16 replies
So I've been reading some threads on this forum where members are asking

* what's the best methods to make money online?

* Can you make a living on the Internet?

* Is it necessary to have a blog to sell your online products?

My answer to all of the above is this :

It's hard work to maintain a blog, you won't find lazy Internet marketers using that method to make money online.

You can have an enticing squeeze page to capture visitors email addresses in exchange for something of high perceived value for free, and market your products and affiliate products you have on offer to them via email marketing.

Most affiliate programs offer email swipes that's been tested to convert well that you can just copy and paste. It's best to write your own unique email sequence though in my opinion.

Obviously you will be targeting a specific niche with targeted buyers. If you're just collecting email addresses from people who don't qualify to buy your products, then that will be a futile exercise.

Use paid advertising methods to get high quality buyers, and you will be able to make a full time living from Internet marketing, while you still have free time to do the things you love.

Having a blog works well for people who love to write and who have quality content that coverts the reader to becoming a paying subscriber in some way or form. There is no point in blogging if you unable to monetize your blog in my opinion.

As for the best method to make money online question, well there's definitely more than one. Here are many threads on this forum detailing many methods that works well, with proven stats to back up the claims. Even the Wso's have some awesome content that you can master to make a full time living online.

    When members make such general "how to make money" questions they should simply be referred to the following thread.

    If they are serious about that question, it will point them in the right direction and save other members from seeing the same general questions over and over and over again.

        Nope, there's no "rule" that says anyone has to point those kinds of questions to webmarke's thread.

        But it's a sensible thing to do.

        After all, that thread sufficiently answers the question, "How can I make money online?"

        It saves you the trouble of explaining that process over and over again to people who ask such questions.

        Regards,

    they should simply be referred to
    Linking to your own thread in several other threads is your choice but telling others they "should" link to it, too, is probably not the best way to go. That's where the pushback came from.

    That particular thread would be a good one except for the rudeness displayed in it.

    It's one of those subjective questions. It all depends on who you ask and what their level of experience might be. Then, too, what one person means by a lot of money is often not the same as another.

    If you have experience you can create content and courses and don't have to worry about stolen commissions.

    If you're comfortable working as an affiliate, promoting high ticket items with a generous piece of the pie would probably be the best way to go.

    If you have coding skill it would probably be app creation or a subscription platform of some sort.

    If you don't have any skills and/or are lazy I'd suggest investing in Amazon, Google, Facebook. Also, keep an eye on Twitter.

    The best way is to create a product in a niche that has huge problem. Typically I suggest one of these three marketplaces: 1.)Make Money Online/ IM 2.)Health & Wellness 3.) Dating & Relationships

    If you have not experience in these areas you can simply interview and expert. You could use google hangout to record this interview. Ask 10-15 good questions. There in 45 minutes to an hour you have a solid product. You can then go to Fiverr to get the video transcribed and get the audio stripped out. That way you'll have a PDF and audio.

    In a few days you'll have a PDF, audio, and video. You can sell the PDF and audio as a front-end product and the video as an upsell.

    Then you'll need to get some traffic. You do your own marketing and advertise on FB, Youtube, or purchase e-mail drops or solo ads to get traffic started.

    Once you have some solid numbers on how your product converts you can start to recruit affiliates or do a launch... And in 30 days from now if you take this advice and run with it, you could have a nice payday.

    The best way is to probably use Ebay or Amazon (if you trust Amazon).

    The best lifestyle way is through selling information products and/or affiliate marketing. But obviously more marketing skill is required if you try to sell via infoproducts and aff marketing.

    The best way is to simply create your own product, build a buyers list, and promote other products and services that help them quickly get to their desired outcome.

    You make some excellent points Sheldon.

    Many times people get so excited to take action they do not think about the day to day operations that will be required or outsourced. Good to make sure you indulge into something you will not get bored with or find tedious and then that creates another false start.

    If you commit to something like Video Marketing..eat it, breathe it, sleep it, until you become an authority on that subject.

    Definitely make getting a sale one of the first priorities, some could debate that but based on my own experience that feeling of making a sale will fuel you thru the many times you want to throw your laptop out the window.

    I have tried several forms of making money online: blogging, advertising, squeeze pages. The best way to make money is to sell online memberships in my experience. By selling memberships you benefit from not only the initial sale but also a monthly membership affiliate commission. By selling high ticket products too you can offset advertising costs more easily than for small value products, making it a more viable opportunity. Combining high ticket, monthly membership and by up-selling, you are combining the most successful affiliate marketing techniques. Of course it still takes a lot of hard work whichever method you choose.

    Selling products online needn't involve a blog or squeeze page. Those two things might just be assets to an online business.

    People are too wrapped in in the notion that 'Internet Marketing' is vending an ebook or video course after capturing a lead, with no correct distinction between what they are selling and where they are selling it. Instead it's all seemingly bundled into one entity.

    There's countless ways to make money online, so it's paramount that our scope isn't narrowed to a linear form of thinking.

    'Internet Maketing' is just a term for an advertising medium. It doesn't (or shouldn't) automatically suggest digital goods any more than a newspaper classified section should suggest a second hand pool table, despite those being rife therein.
