IM without a domain name

11 years ago

Yes. You can always use platforms like blogger and tumblr for a landing page. The downside is that you don't own these properties and run the risk of having them taken down without warning. Alot of people have success using these sites. A way to drive traffic is to use youtube videos with a link to your blogger or tumblr site.

You can always use Web 2.0 platforms such as WordPress.com (or Tumblr.com) to build your website and place ads / affiliate offers on there.

You can also do IM through YouTube by making some good quality videos and placing ads beside your videos.

However, for maximum income potential, its highly recommended that you get your own domain name / hosting. This way, you can use the other outlets to drive traffic to your main website and market whatever you want.

Yes, there are a few ways actually. Think on it for a bit and see if you can come up the methods on your own. You can't expect fellow warriors to do the thinking for you.

With Youtube, free blogging sites, press releases and a little know-how (okay, a lot of know-how) you can have a kickbutt Launch Jacking business up and running within a week.

But, the answer is yes, there are plenty of ways to earn without a website.

You can make money without having a domain name. I did it myself. With that said, I can also tell you that when you use free platforms, you don't have control over the content. Your content can be removed (does happen and happened to me) with you having no recourse. The only thing you can do is to start all over again. Also, free sites are very particular about the kinds of stuff you can promote of them.

I would recommend that you find a really profitable niche market (i.e. dating, weight loss, video games...) that you really like and know a little something about. If you're already a part of the niche, it will be a lot less work for you. I would also recommend that you start a blog on your own domain. Not only will you be able to control the content, but you will be able to build a list and more.

In my time online, I've also learned that if you want to compete, you need to do what the "big boys" do. I don't mean lie or scam people out of their money but rather use the same business model. That means having a self-hosted domain and building a list. My income sky-rocked in comparison to when I was only using free sites to promote stuff. I wish I would have started my blog a lot sooner than I did.

It depend on how you would like to make money online because it depend on your business model and some do not need a site or domain and you only need to use people site or tools to earn it.
But in my point of view, if you have a own domain and a website or blog may help you earn even more money by integrate with those free blogs platform , youtube, social media and so on.

Yes because most autoresponder services have squeeze pages built into them. You can use one like Aweber, create forms and choose the option to have the forms hosted on Aweber. That way you can promote your CB links but still capture the lead for yourself.

Squidoo and hubpages are very good ways to earn money without having a website. Both of those sites allow their users to earn money through amazon, adsense etc.

I was killing with HubPages in 2010. Trouble is, sooner or later everyone notices your success and 10000 similar Hubs to yours appear. Then I got in trouble with the Hub Police and loads of my Hubs got unpublished.

Yesterday my Hubs made $0.03. What a sad end to my glorious empire!

Follow Seinfeld's lead and aim to be the master of your domain.

What is the point? Tony Robbins has a good suggestion: if you want better results, ask better questions.

Sure you can, but you could do so much better if you don't cripple yourself like that. Do you ever hear anglers asking if it's possible to catch a fish with just a bare hook? Of course it's possible; they might snag a fish that wasn't paying attention, but why would they purposely minimize their chances for success; to save the ten bucks for a couple of lures?

Until you have a few dollars, I'd probably look at something other than ClickBank, then.

It's terribly difficult to earn ClickBank commissions without an autoresponder. It's the lack of autoresponder that's your real problem, not the lack of a domain-name (you can buy one of those for almost nothing, and you can get free hosting at places like Freehostia, 000WebHost or Byethost). But you need to be able to use an autoresponder, and not a free one: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post7110523

There are plenty of ways to make money online without a website, by the way, but to choose ClickBank and try to do it without a website/autoresponder set-up is really making things difficult for yourself.

Hey Alexa; I don't usually blatantly suck up to anyone, but I can't help but gloat over the fact that you thanked one of my posts!

That's like having Michael Jordan walk up and say, "great jump shot"! And of course, your post is much better than mine; you have a way of always hitting the nail on the head.

I'm not saying that because your pic is hot either; I suspect you're really an eighty year old man, or maybe a 12 year old kid, but it doesn't matter. If I want to learn about marketing, I just read some of your posts.

Yes, but it stacks the deck significantly against you, and for the sake of $2.99 or whatever, it isn't worth thinking about it seriously.

Thanks everyone for all the great responses, I sincerely appreciate all of you taking the time to reply to my question. I was thinking since I do not have a domain name, would it be best to just participate in ClickBank as a vendor? That way I can create an initial income to help get me going without the need to necessarily concentrate on my "web image", I can just let affiliates handle that?

*edit* I do have a domain name, ImBrokeHelp.com ... but with some great advice from Warriors, I realized this was probably not the best domain to begin with. Which I totally understand... can't expect to market to broke people and make money lol

That is a pretty funny domain; who knows, maybe you could build it into a personal "I will accept money" site for people to donate to; if you have a cute dog with a sad face, I bet you'd get a few "help me buy some good food for Fido" donations. Or you could do something else for money.

Seriously, the question in my mind right now is are you so broke that you can't afford to spend $10 (or probably way less today; haven't checked, but I'm sure you can find black friday deals on them today), for a domain?

I really believe you'd be wasting a lot of effort by not getting a domain and setting up a basic sales funnel, or at the very least, a squeeze page. Otherwise, you are building the lists of clickbank vendors but throwing away the main value of your effort by not building your own at the same time.

Every big marketer seems to be in agreement; the one thing they wish they had done differently starting out is build a list from day one. Learn from their mistake.

Otherwise, you're just tossing most of your profits down the drain. It's nice to get some immediate commissions, and you need cash without spending much; I get that. But I beg you to somehow come up with a few bucks for a domain, hosting, and an autoresponder, so you aren't driving traffic without giving people a chance to join your list. Once you have a good list, you'll never be broke again.

Thanks

Consider having the best of both worlds....You can develop income on third party sites and at the same time USE those sites as backlinks to your own self hosted site.

Third party sites have always been excellent testing grounds for niches/products. If they convert well, by all means, give your own self-hosted sites a shot at the same niche/products but don't just discard what you've built. They can serve as good backlinks!

Yes, use squiddo, blogger or hubpages. This makes it possible, however, a domain name with your own hosting gives you more control.

YouTube.

You'll need some sort of redirect though (like bit.ly or if you have some random domain you can use for redirects) since I believe YouTube isn't fond of direct affiliate links.
