If you had 100$ to start!?

I would start a service and place an ad in Warriors for hire
whether it was designing a graphic or writing an article, that just costs $20
once you get money from the service, you can try other stuff

Good Luck

Buy a domain and host and start a blog about something you master keep updating the content and get backlinks than put some ads :Adsense ,cpa...

With just $100 you probably won't be able to start anything serious.

PPC or any other type of paid traffic is definitely out of the question.

First decide what kind of business you want to own and then start gathering cash for that investment.

You should tell us what you are good at. Do you know SEO? Familiar with any free traffic method?

I'd listen to Pixel Minisite and start a service here on the forum.

Thanks for that reply Alexa!

Right now im either on the doubt of starting a blog and promoting a product or starting a niche site promoting a product.

I would start a service but i really don't know how to do anything =/

I do know what SEO and free traffic methods i know about are forums/offline campaigns/yahoo answers

Thanks for the help guys im stilling not sure what i am going to do though ;s

If you how to drive traffic, then why don't you provide it as a service? Because busy business owners looking for someone who can drive traffic to their site. You can try forum posting. You can start with fiverr or you can post your service within our forum itself for just $20 under Warriors For Hire.

If can, try to do video marketing just by using the free software like windows movie maker with open office and etc. Then offer your customers that you'll post in youtube for them. By offering this kind of service more people will come to you because you've lessen their marketing burdens. You're creating the video and posting it into youtube. Once you're master in it, you could provide more professional service to others. Hope this helps you :-)

Thanks Alexandru, that was a good i know its kinda of hard to start off with just 100$ but i am willing to go for it. let me ask you, lets say i were to start a blog on a niche (example: soccer) then id have ads for soccer gear. id start off with free trafic but if i were to get paid trafic what would you suggest is the best method? and also is it really worth it? Starting off how much of a loss will i have intilli start converting ?

I started my online business with $0. I wrote an ebook about magic tricks, wrote a salesletter, put it on free hosting, did some SEO. Made some sales, bought a domain and proper hosting and it all took off from there. That was almost 10 years ago.

In fact, here is the archive of that very site, together with the search engine fodder I made (links at the very bottom of the page): Extreme Street Magic - REVEALED!! Learn Card Tricks and other Magic Tricks Performed By The Pro's! (wait on redirect)

Funny to look at that now, humble beginnings. What's even funnier is the last time I made a sale of that very same product was today, but now it's sold over at: streetmagic101.com

If I was to start again today though, with $100.

I'd pick a niche I'm passionate about. (me, today, it would be health related)

Get a domain, hosting and an autoresponder.

Start a blog and aim to write a new post every day. Encourage the optin on every page.

Write lots of good content, target keywords you can rank for, recommend/talk about products, use your affiliate link.

Just keep posting content and directing your subscribers to your blog.

Maybe not the fastest way to make a buck, but a solid, legitimate way to start earning an income.

Create adsense niche site(domain, host, backlinks) . Choose low competition keyword. After generate consistent income, we can flip it later.

You need to figure out what your strengths are and evaluate what you're trying to accomplish in the short term. If I was you the first thing I would do is earn some extra money on sites like Fiverr to help build up my bankroll so I can reinvest it in a bigger project. This isn't a race tackle things one at a time.

Thanks for the information guys, its helping ALOT! I have an ebook i began to write on my niche a while back, im thinking about finishing that ebook and making a blog of the sort and putting adsense and my ebook for sale.

What do you guys think? should i do somthing different or use any tools im not familiar with?

Also i tried searching for this but i couldn't really find an anwser. I have a few set of keywords i wanna target but when i put them in google allintitle: it gives me a really low result (example: 8,000) then i do a normal search and it gives me a really big number (example: 1,000,000), right now im use market samurai free trial and i put the keyword there and it says the top 10 for my keyword are way to strong to start off?

im not really understand the concept of knowing when i acually got a good keyword.?

$100 is plenty.

There are people out there (and on this forum) who start with not
a single dollar to their name and I personally know a few who have
made a decent online income for themselves.

For me, I would say:

Pick up a domain name, web hosting and a great looking Wordpress theme.

Then, begin writing things around your hobby including the products you already own (in the hobby) and link to them to Amazon. Once traffic picks up, start looking for Clickbank products and slap Adsense on the blog. Over time, consider creating a list or working with others to create something new for the hobby and leverage your blog to stand out and get your product noticed.

I agree with most of the posts here. Start out with putting up a blog about a topic you're interested in or something that you're good at. Do your SEO stuff and when you get a reasonable amount of regular traffic, monetize your site by putting adsence and affiliate links. It may not be the fastest way to earn money but it's one of the most solid paths to success.

domain
hosting

then work your ass off building a squeeze page.

Then work your ass off even harder driving all the traffic you can to your squeeze page.

Build a list, and then start helping them and offering them stuff.

You can drive traffic to your squeeze page by,

forum sigs
blog commenting
free press releases
articles
joint ventures
guest post on high traffic blogs
viral video to youtube.

As your a newbie, i would purchase a popular product on affiliate marketing, traffic generation & conversion...

Then once you get some experience, move to product creation.

Cheers,

~Gary

the best is to have your own domain as this is can be your long term business...you can promote your business through articles, classified ads, blog comments etc

I am a newbie too, and from what made me realize by reading some of the threads on this forum, it came into my realization, that it is needed to know things better, you must know your interest, your prospected target, and have to have a concrete plan. Business everywhere is a gamble. So gamble on where your heart leads you.

With $100 to start, purchase your domain and get a hosting account setup. Get an e-book cover on Fiverr. Sign up for Aweber. Distribute your e-book with E-junkie. Put the rest aside for hosting next month, Aweber. E-junkie, too. Focus on building your blog and getting your e-book out. Build your list.

I would buy a hosting. Do some keyword research, choose and buy right domain. Then go to Clickbank, just the product for you niche and start promoting your blog. It's that simple

SEO tools.
Autoresponders.
VPS hostings.

I think before spending $100 you have to decide on which business model you're going to follow. Are you going to be an affiliate, product creator or provide a service.

For most you're going to need a domain name, hosting and auto-responder but you can't really buy a domain name until you decide what type of business model and market you're going to enter.

Whatever you do... just create a plan and only spend that money on the TOOLS required to work that plan.

1. keyword research = free
2. 10 domains + hosting = $100
3. content creation = hours of your time
4. iMacros to automate linkbuilding
___________________________________
Total = $100

100$ it's a not enough money to start a serious online business but you can use them to make more and then start a real online business, So what I have done with less money than 100$ was to buy a domain name (less than 10$/year) and build a free wordpress blog with hosting costs arount 4$/month.

You should be passionate about what you are writing in your blog and if like what you write traffic will come and together money will come, you can use adsense or if you get enough traffic sell ad space on your blog.

Then when you have a steady income use the money that this blog generate to build a professional site and sell services or products of your choise...

I will host a site to sell something.

I personally spent less than $7 to start my IM ....

I'll absolutely purchase an article spinner ($37)
Doing a lot of outsourcing in wet niches...
Purchasing solo ads to increase my list size
Purchasing some MRR products as one time offer or to sell to my list
Outsourcing several works on Fiverr (max. 3 gigs only)

I would check out this thread:

http://www.warriorforum.com/offline-...er-i-want.html


And other threads from this guy. He posts a lot in the offline part of this forum, and his ideas are so good he should be charging for them.

I’d recommend picking a handful of niches you’re interested in & doing some research to compare them. Once you narrow it down to one or two that have some good promise then I’d invest in hosting and buying your own domain. Then start creating content!

You can use your own experience, go to the public library, or search the web for ideas for content. Post up sticky articles on your site & add a blog where you’re constantly adding fresh content. I’d also set up a Twitter page & Facebook fan page. Get your blog to feed to that as well as use a service like SocialOomph to set up automated updates. Build up a following & you’ll drive a decent amount of traffic while waiting for your site to rank.

If you’ve got a lot of time you could do a review blog & post a review every week – like comparing the best digital camera out there - & have Amazon affiliate links. This type of site would lend itself to lots of pics which if done right, are great w/the search engines.

$100 is lot more then i start with! yeah, i started IM with $40 (Micro niche). I earned some money but i did earn lot, why? because lack of planing, lack of time.....even i dropped out of my personal problem!

In Internet Marketing, planing is most important! Best way to start IM is Micro Niche!

Micro Niche is slow and long way to make money. You can earn lot money over the time with Micro Niche!

1. Select Profitable Niche and Keyword.
2. Buy keyword domain
3. Start adding content and Seo working
4. Get Traffic from other source, other then Google
5. Monetize your website in right way
6. Make money
<<Do everything in right way>>

Just my opinion,

Kamesh

I actually started with about $20 almost 10 years ago, so I understand this completely. I would start by getting a domain name from GoDaddy with a coupon code for $7.49 (around $9 after tax and rounding up for charity). You can find the coupon code by searching on Google. This would be a .com domain, by the way.

Then, I would spend the money to get started with hosting. I went with HostGator and still use them today. They have a coupon you can find for 1 cent hosting your first month.

After I have a domain for my niche and a hosting account for it I would set up a Wordpress blog on this domain name and pay to have 5 good posts written for it. I would also pay to have 5 good article written for it as well.

I would schedule the 5 posts to go out one per day for 5 days, then submit the 5 articles to as many article directories as I can find with links back to the 5 posts and the main domain name.

After about a week I would apply for a Google Adsense account and put some ads on my blog. I would also use the SEO smart links plugin to promote affiliate products from clickbank, commission junction, shareasale, and a handful of other free affiliate networks.

At this point you can start writing one post per day for your blog and one article per day as well. Make sure you submit the new article and link back to your main domain name and the new post. I would probably cut down to about 15 article directories to submit to at this point.

As you make money you can pay to have more posts and more articles written for you. This will help you build up faster and get to where you are trying to go.

search about niches and try to build some niche websites .

My monthly investments were about $50 when I started. I bought domain, hosting, and paid for a header. I spent a lot of time researching a niche and writing good content. 5 months later I was making money.

Most people would be better off if they didn't have more to spend. The money usually goes to products that just delay the process of learning/doing.

You can start out fine with $100, although it's always better to have more. As for the people saying that it's not, I disagree. Having more money, at the very least, means you can outsource work in order to increase productivity and initial earnings early on.

I don't see what's hard to grasp about that. Can you make it without $5,000? Yes. Would I prefer to have $5,000 so I can outsource work and do some myself, effectively doubling or even tripling productivity for the first couple months? Yes. Then you have more money to reinvest in the business, which leads to faster overall growth.

Sorry, I didn't really address the OP's question here.

I'd just grab some hosting and a domain, then sit on the rest of the rest of the money for a while. You could look into some paid links or link building services in order to help your sites rank. Something like that would probably be ideal.
