Best way to make $100/day in 3-4 months

39 replies
Hello Warriors,

I've been into internet marketing for the past 8 months. I've learned a lot and I'm so ready to start making money, but there are a lot of different models that can be used, and I often feel lost or overwhelmed. I've started in a few directions and fizzled out cause i wasn't making progress and didn't feel confident that my efforts would pay off. I would like to know what are your top one or two business models that have lead to long term success and consistent substantial earnings.



Specifically, what's the best method to making $100/day in 3-4 months?



Also, for those who prefer to set up several sites vs one or two authority sites, how do you manage the SEO (if you use SEO)? I just completed my first small amazon site, but getting it to the top of Google seems daunting with manual SEO, (and that's just for my main keyword/ one page) and I don't have hundreds to spend per month on popular SEO partial automated programs.



I'm willing to put in the work, i'm all in and WILL make internet marketing work for me, but it's harder than i thought it would be. (I thought i'd be making money by now, especially with all the initial "make a thousand dollars overnight" promises that got me tripped up in the beginning.)



Please let me know what you think. Reading success stories of others definitely gives more hope of it working for me. Thank you so much in advance for your time and attention.

    Niche blogging (review sites centered around a certain theme) is a great way to make consistent, passive income. Speaking from personal experience, it's all about targeted traffic. It's literally the diff. between making $100 per month and thousands. You don't need a bunch of sites to make good money. One is enough as long as it's if a popular enough niche that you have enough products to promote and what not.

    When it comes to Amazon, I recommend you do two things. First, promote higher-priced items. Secondly, cross promote products in order to beef up your commissions. For instance, if you're in the video game niche, it would make sense to promote a game system to play the game on in addition to the actual video game itself. Lots of times, people actually look up reviews for a particular game based on the system they have. When possible, add articles about stuff going on in your niche.

    Also, stick to this method. Don't bounce around from one thing to the next. It will only cause you to become more confused and waste time you can't get back. Just keep adding content and working it. Eventually, your site will explode and be all the search engines. It's well worth the effort. Trust me on that.

    Good luck,
    Joey

    This is the biggest repeat question that is asked on the warrior forum. The answer is to come up with a original idea. You cannot be like a clone following the same method that hundreds of thousands of people are doing to make hardly anything. The answer is in your imagination and your vision.

    You have to get traffic to a offer and convert it. That is incredibly difficult if you have not been able to do it before. The top 2 skills to build are copywriting and some form of traffic generation. If you are poor at both which most people are, making money online will be incredibly difficult. Master one of those and you will be able to pay for the other to help you convert. The first thing is to come up with the vision that you believe in.

    Some generic type promotion will always have you giving up after a few months when no money comes in. This answer will keep coming up here at warrior forum and you will continue to hear the same generic answer. The generic answers are correct what is missing is your imagination to manifest a idea that you turn into a plan and use proper marketing to carry it out.

    Thanks Miguelito203. For the amazon site i started with a laptop and i also included some accessory reviews, so i feel you on the higher priced items+ cross products. And i have settled on the idea that i need to start one project and make it grow. I've been searching for the fastest way to money cause i'm so broke, but now i'm just ready to focus on one thing that will get me where i need to be, even if it takes a few months to get there. Are niche review sites your preferred approach?

    Thanks jamesrich1, but when you say original idea, what exactly do you mean? Original spin to a niche that gets searches? Original products to promote? Just my original viewpoint? And are you connecting this to Authority niche sites or a different model? What are your preferred types of sites, and how do you recommend tackling the traffic generation aspect?

    Thanks so much!

    I guess a more specific question would be:

    what have you done that got you results from $0 to $100/day within 3-4 months?

    There was a famous book that was really popular a bit ago and the writer now owns the 1kaday forum but the book is called $5 a day by Dennis Becker and he shows how he builds on his income adding $5 a day strategies. don't just do nich sites and don't just do seo to promote, add diversity. There's free ebooks (with your link to your product inside- distribute to free ebook sites, run a optin to them on traffic exchanges, etc - the ebook is the strategy the the distribution is the advertising ) thats one example find other free ways to do both and add them in over time each. when something works good or great or awesome duplicate if something doesn't work delete it -- TRACK with google analytics. obviously you don't want too many of anything so its manageable but you know the more advertising the more money you make. there's a $7 copy of dennis' book online, scan the wso area for "free advertising" books if you can't afford to buy one there. If you can buy search for a copy of "the content multiplier" you get a great free membership to a $5000 marketing group its amazing or buy craig mako's fast attack traffic if you can.

      It takes a process before you can get a high ranking in the search engine, and eventually have financial success in the online business. As I mentioned in my other posts, it is the law of the farm. There is no shortcut.

      First, you have to spend time, effort and money in order to market your business online. There are a lot of options you can consider. There are a lot of SEO companies and firms that offer quality but affordable services that fits your needs. Though you may have already done this, but this will definitely boost your website. The goal in doing SEO is simple; this is to double or even triple your income in the following months. You have to maintain this SEO services because this is your marketing investment. At first it might be a little less than what you are expecting. But as time progresses, you will get a dramatic increase in your income. I have a friend who is now earning $200-plus a day using this strategy.

      Second, you have to do a research analysis on the best selling products online, for you to be competitive in the market. The results of the best products will be applied in your website on the following month, thus creating a BUZZ in the site.

      Third, it's about the WINNING attitude. Patience in doing what is best in your website is a necessity.

      Good luck and I believe you can make it!

      Some great advice from Claire.
      Yea you don't have to think of it as $100 a day. You can break it down into 10 x $10 a day. Just find a simple way to make $10 a day and then repeat it 10 times. This is often how the big guys are doing it. They will then scale that up a 100 time and turn it into $1,000 days.

    Thanks Claire! I'll definitely look into those methods and the book/products you recommended.

    Just trying to gain as much insight as possible before diving into a long term plan. I'll definitely keep the tracking with google analytics in mind, you mean things like traffic and conversions? And i'll keep in mind keep what works and duplicate and dump what doesn't.

    Thank you for the input!

    When I say original idea I will give you an example. Just recently this huge company was started that gathered 13,000 affiliates that pays 100% commission. Well there are only maybe a few hundred of those people making anything significant. The #1 earner thought out of the box to start a group in Facebook and he made two videos sharing his vision of co op access. Having a big team of people who share their ideas.

    He also offered bonuses to help people with training. That idea took off for him. Another idea that took off for somebody was building lists at trade-shows by having a raffle but requiring the person to put in their name and email to enter. They then marketed to that list throughout the list for a related product to the trade-show.

    Sorry to say but regardless of whether many members would like to admit it or not 98% are failing to make anything substantial online. Why? Well because we are looking for methods that worked for that rare 1% and flooding the market to turn off the buyers because they see the dollar signs racking up on the page owners pages.

    People are completely aware that most pages online are a marketing funnel. So what do we do. Well we have to keep finding ways to go the opposite way to slip in between the cracks and separate ourselves from looking like the salesmen. I am not making full time income. Not yet. I make a little bit but not full time. Why?

    Well because I kept jumping from method to method because I was blinding following some e-book with rehashed info. Now I am sticking to a original idea from my own mind and using marketing to bring people to it. You will get the promote amazon or do affiliate marketing suggestions all day. Most marketers are failing with that. If you want to do that go ahead but I will tell you that unless you have some passion towards it, it will be hard to keep going 6 months later with little profit.

    You need to find a area that you would keep going on regardless of if there was money or not coming to you. If you are broke it makes this even harder because investing in your education, tools and coaching makes a huge difference.

    You need to create a simple plan and stick to it. Either find a really good product to promote or create your own. I suggest you go with the latter as this way you are not just a middle man. Are you good at anything in particular? Anything you know no one else is good at? Start there...

    In fact right now just compile a list of everything you can do really well. Then figure out which ones would be the most profitable.

    I use the joker's Quote from Dark Knight "if you are good at something never do it for free" Perhaps you are great at writing articles or creating killer graphics. Create a website offering those services. 100 a day in 3-4 is not a hard goal to reach at all! Especially if you can offer a unique service, or a twist on an existing one.

    Almost anything is profitable. You can make more money much faster by creating your own product or service. But like I said above promoting a good product can work well too

    To your success,

    Dan

    While I create products, build niche websites and build lists...

    Have to say that creating a product and marketing it everyday is the best way to add a consistent income easily. A better step would be to create a continuity program (which is just an extension of product creation) which I've not done.

    I logged into my PayPal account yesterday and made a note of the monthly income for the past 6 months. New products made a significant difference to consistent income, my affiliate sites took time to build up (and then got hacked) but my products kept selling.

    There isn't one objectively "best way" to making $100/day within 4 months.

    It depends mostly on the person, and specifically on the skills they have.

    For many people, though, providing a service will be by far the most reliable way of achieving this income level.

    Good luck!

    Timely topic for me...I'm writing a month-long tutorial about that over on me site.

    Unless you have an added edge (right place, right time, right product, right mentor), the chances of making $100 a DAY is 'mighty slim.

    Keep that as a great goal, mind you, but start realistically.

    Go for making consistently $10-$50 a day after a few months. And I mean *consistently*.

    That being said, niche marketing, affiliate marketing, building your list and becoming an authority is my personal choice for making money online.

    But don't go by me...instead, go by what works for you *best*.

    Everyone's mileage varies.

    Hope that helps!

      To me, it's a mix of affiliate marketing, creating own products, article marketing and outsourcing.
      Out of them all, outsourcing is possibly the joker in the pack.
      It allows me to sell services which don't necessarily fit MY skillset, but I do know where to find people who are good at providing that particular service, but not so great at marketing it.
      Joint Ventures are also a great source of income.

      A tip:
      If you decide to go down the affiliate marketing route, try to find products which provide a recurring affiliate commission, with, ideally, a good average retention rate.
      These products will provide income tomorrow from work done today, which is always a good thing

      Handling SEO on multiple sites (your original question) can be done with the help of various plugins, if using WP, but the best way to great SEO in 2012 is great content. This means either you'll need to work hard and consistently at producing great content, or you'll need to outsource content creation.
      Most of the shortcuts have disappeared, and a LOT of time will be saved by just doing things the "right" way from day one, rather than trying to follow outdated "get-rich-quick-using-a-bunch-of-spammy-content" schemes.

      Good luck, keep us posted with how you get on

    Thanks to all for your replies! Before i found internet marketing i read the 4 hr work week, where i was introduced to the notion of product creation. I think it's a great idea that i plan on incorporating eventually.

    Yes, trying to formulate a simple plan that i can devote myself to. i think i'll do an authority niche site and incorporate some blog curation on interesting related subjects to keep the content high while building a list and i guess i'll have to see what products to promote as i do my research. For traffic/backlinking seems like forum comments (useful, of course), article marketing, and maybe even this PDF on file sharing sites stuff people are talking about, plus social bookmarking and i'll continue looking into various ways of backlinking and driving traffic.

    Thanks to all who took the time to read and reply.

    More replies welcome!!

      Relevant content, make a habit of review gathering and posting, build a one of a kind brand. It's the slow and steady way, but it's got me to $1k per day on some days, and I started not even knowing what an email collection form was.

    1. Get and install the SoNET v3.0 Web Engine onto a Godaddy, Windows Virtual Server.
    2. Setup my new domain to offer both FREE and ultra-cheap websites and get everyone I know to start building sites on it and spreading the word that my new domain is up and offers a sweet deal for a new website plus hosting with all those features at a super cheap monthly price.
    3. Visit local businesses and do a co-promotion where they offer ALL of their customers a FREE website (on your new domain) (huge value add for ANY business).

    Of all the FREE sites generated, (FREE sites should be setup with less features for this to work) some of those many people will want to pay for a few extra features and take the ultra-cheap monthly deal.

    The more sites you move, the more money you will take in monthly/yearly/daily (however you set it up)

    It does start by building your list, and creating some sort of a relationship with them.

    Do this right and you can have lots of money.

    Go above and beyond, and then anything in the world can be yours. I am personally saving up to buy Russia! Got a few more $$ to save up yet though. LOL

    You get my point. The most valueable thing you can do for you business is build a list and give em stuff they can chew on and help them make money.

    Stick to what your strengths are. Getting 100 a day? Provide a service to Odesk or Freelancer where you can bang out their order fast while keeping the quality of it high.

    Fivrr is good, but you could easily get double, triple the $$ if you do it on Odesk or Freelancer (unless your specialty is to dance in front of a camera in a frog costume).

    You may even offer your first 5 services for free to get some good feedback.
    The idea is to search forums like "Members wanting to hire Warriors" and check what has the most interest.

    Hope this helps

    There are many ways to make that much in a day. Whichever one you choose though, you will need a good niche. If you can find a good niche that is getting you a lot of traffic, then you can make much more than that with CPA, selling a product, ads, or anything really.

    The biggest decision you will ever make is what to do with your life. (Making no decision is also a decision.)

    Congratulations! You’ve already made up your mind to get into internet marketing. Now, if I get you right, you are wondering the best route to take to make $100 a day in the next couple of months.

    Three things are worth noting:

    1.
    You are the best placed person to determine that. Choose a model that has worked with other people. One you like and are eager to learn more about.

    2.
    Most successful marketers started out in different niches from where they are today. It requires testing different strategies and running with the winners.

    3.
    Having unshakable faith, determination and perseverance can bring a person great success.

    So, pick a model. Determine the prize you will pay for its successful implementation. Then move forward neither looking backwards, sideways or listening to skeptics. Making $100 a day in the next 60 days is much easier than you think.

    By the way, there are several threads about making $100 a day in this forum. Perhaps you may consider reading all of them in the coming days.

    Dude, at these times I like to re-focus on the "reasons why" I am doing internet marketing.

    The Whys are usually stronger than the Hows. With a good Why it will help you figure out the Hows, heck it will make you "do" all the Hows and figure/work one that will eventually work for you The Whys will make you do "crazy" things to succeed. How badly do you want that elusive $100/day?

    With so many methods, sticking or rather picking one is difficult. Choose one that you have a strength for it, or "belief" will help you make money (e.g. just read the reviews of WSOs and it will be clear to you which can make you money or one that interest you so much that you will pour your heart out to learn all about it and be so good that puts you on par with the experts And once you pick a method, build your list!

    I have only made $100 once, but yet to repeat that process.

    The bast way i have found to make $100 a day is to find a product on amazon, create a website about that genre of product(s) and build a few backlinks to the inner pages.

    Probably not the best way, but its my little way

    You can make $100 a day if you pick up 1- 2 skills which are the most sought after , can be as straight forward as article writing among other free lancing gigs, use the cash flow from the gigs / services and reinvest on creating other buiness models , which can be any of the options other helpful warriors mentioned above.

    by providing services and getting a list of repeat customer and cash flow you get more confidence to try other business models.

    Create your own product. Period. And if you can, make it a physical one eventually. This will give it a higher perceived value, and you can sell it higher...and also spend more to advertise it. Also, UPSELL. So if you sell a $147 physical infoproduct, be sure to add a small upsell, that is only around $30+. Why only $30? Because the $30 vs. $147 is very low and most will bite. Secondly, that $30 will hopefully pay off the COST of the printing for the physical product...leaving you with more profit.

    I did this exact method over the past 4-5 years until I sold my business off in 2011. I did over $100k a year with it...and I plan on repeating the same process again with a new product. And if you are stuck on what kind of product to make...don't reinvent the wheel. Look at programs that already sell for that price, buy them, and make your own similar product with your own twist.

    If you want a guaranteed high income job then setup a dog walking service.

    Every year more and more people are getting rich (while more and more getting poor squeezing out the middle) and more and more people are owning animals and spending money on their animals.

    Setup a dog walking service you'll make anywhere from 30,000-$70,000 a year.

    Now if you're reading this thinking "You can't pay me enough to do that!" then you need to step back and think about what you're after.

    'Cuz let's face it - there are dozens of ways of making more money.

    Randomly asking how people can make an extra $100 a month isn't enough.

    Best way to make $100/day? You don't. It's as simple as that. Instead, try to look at $100 a month after 3-4 months. Slowly build up your business and income. Before you know it, you'll be a successful entrepreneur owning multiple businesses.

    There are many good suggestions, let me ad one based on a new wso that came out last week. I just came across it yesterday and am very impressed, I am putting it in action tomorrow. Search for - Instant Offline Avalanche, you can see the reviews and results by some. You can make $297 the first week.
