How would you invest $1 - 5K

It will work - selling profit making Amazon sites - but personally I will not do it. Making profit in Amazon is no easy job, might as well keep it to yourself. But unless you do not prefer to keep it, then yes, it will earn you decent money in Flippa.

I would watch out for amazon if you are in the USA, your whole plan can come crashing down if your state decides to try and tax them.

I would use a whole lot of that money to buy content. Quality content too, not $.01/word crap that only the search engine likes to read. Post the content regularly, not all at once.

Here are the steps laid down in simple forms for you:

1. Find a profitable niche with low SEO competition.
2. Order content and put site up using WP.
3. Build links consistently till you rank.
4. Rinse repeat till you reach your desired amount of monthly income.

Good luck!

We regularly sell batches of sites off on Flippa that have consistent income. If you're good at pushing or changing monetization you might want to pick up our starter sites...we start them off at $1 with No Reserve.

If you have more time than money, we give away our process for creating profitable AdSense sites for free on our website and give the details to help get you started.

Forget Adsense you'll be very lucky if you earn $100 a month from a 4 - 8 article site do affiliate marketing instead it pays much better. Build a 20 page content filled site recommending relevant products in text links throughout the site.

$2,000 will be more than enough to have a website developed that will make you $1,000 to $3,000 per month with minimal upkeep.

Hey,

I can tell you one thing and I'm 100% sure about it:

There's no the best way to do it

But, if you want an opinion from me, here it is:

If you're new, I would get inside a coaching program.

Jason Fladlien just launched his coaching program "6in6coaching" and it costs just $97 per month, which is an amazing deal (if you're interested in it, contact me and I'll give a huge bonus for it if you go through my link)

So, coaching would be $97.

I would get hosting account, AWeber (autoresponder), domain. That's $40.

Then, I would start building my list.

I would set up a simple squeeze page, and then buy solo ads. The best resource that I currently know for getting solo ads and also setting up ad swaps is safe-swaps.com, but it costs $25-$35 per month and I can say it's well worth it, because they have feedback system just like EBay has. Again, if you want to register, send a message to me and I'll give you a bonus if you go through my link.

Before you buy solo ads, set up a thank you page and a page with your gift. When people sign up, you will take them to a thank you page where you have affiliate banners. That way you can make your money back immeaditly. You also have a couple banners on the page with your gift.

So now go there to safe-swaps.com and buy a couple solo ads. Spend $600. For that amount of money you will easily get at least 1800 clicks. If your squeeze page does it job and you have an exit pop up, you will get 900 subscribers. You can spend even more money.

Now you can start ad swapping. Use safe-swaps.com for that. It will make your life easier

That's what I would do.

After 12 months you should be making $4000-$8000 every single month from ad swapping.

By the way, if you don't know what to promote, I recommend promoting Jason Fladlien, Lee McIntyre, Kim Roach. These affiliate programs will pay you a lot of money

Hope this helps,

From what I can see from your post and your comments, the best thing I'd suggest you do is invest in your education.

You're asking questions that you should probably already know the answers to, and, with all due respect, I'd personally recommend that you take some time with a mentor to work with you, and pay for some top advice instead of buying WSOs galore.

Grab ahold of someone who is making it work and making good money with IM, and the sort of money you are hoping to achieve could easily be done with the right systems and strategies.

Don't waste your money on software or something you are not sure about, but rather invest in your education to become smarter in your marketing and wiser in your planning.

Good luck

If I had $1,000 to invest, I would buy a really nice video camera and a lapel mic.

Along with my blog, I run a video blog on youtube. Currently I use a regualr point and shoot camera for my videos. It would be nice to have something that records in to 60 frames per second range.

One of my friend has blogspot account and with just posting 1 article a day with do know nothing about SEO and other marketing strategy gets $2000/month from Adsense. So in my opinion just make blog with topic that you like and posting frequently then lets Google do the rest. Just my 2 cents

Nice thread....I see many ways to invest that money. I had thought if I came into that kind of money I would definitely get a coach first. Someone whom I could talk with daily that is actually making money. I've bought into all the product launches to be disappointed. I have made money on simple affiliate blogs using clickbank products. I just did a ton of keyword research, spent time on back links and created my own original content. I have an apple iTunes affiliate website i created but the revenue generated in sales is very minimal you only get like 3% of sales but it made sales in the first month I put the site up. I'm just going to keep rinsing and repeating until I hit my target income.
