17 replies
Hi there! I am new here. I am looking for a way to earn some money, I have 50$ for investment. I also know to code and design websites, but I have no idea how to start, or what should I do.

I thought about CPA, but I'm having trouble finding niche and I didn't even get accepted to any network.

PS. If there's anyone who is willing to add me on Skype to help me please message me

    If you know how to design and code websites, maybe you should go to Elance or Freelancer and find people who are looking for coders.

    This could become a "business" for you. Find customers and charge them a fee for your services.

      I have already done that before, but right now I have not enough time for completing web projects for clients, I just want to develop a website for my own niche but currently have no idea what network/marketing model I should use.

        I hope you aren't thinking that all you need to do is develop a niche site, integrate some sort of income generation system into your niche site, implement some sort of auto content generation system into your niche site, deploy some sort of auto traffic generation process into your niche site, execute some sort of conversion auto optimization process into your niche site's income generation system, and expect to earn decent income afterwards? My purpose in asking is:

        If you just have $50 to start with, which means outsourcing manual content as well as natural and paid traffic generation among other manual things would be out of the question, then:

        • How do you expect to do these things on your own, if you don't have sufficient time to work on your niche site regularly?

        Is there anyone that you currently look up to that you could see yourself doing in a similar way?

    What is your passion? What do you like talking about everyday? What are you an expert on? What sites do you visit every day? Ask yourself these questions and you will find your niche.

    There are people who say, you can only earn money with certain niches or topics, but that's simply not true. For every niche, there are buyers/customers/readers. And, you can always find more ways to monetize a site, whether Adsense, affiliate offers, Clickbank, private ad sales, etc.

      Internet Marketing is not something you pick it's not a niche its more a field of study...

      Internet Marketing is exactly what it says "Marketing on the Internet"

      You can market anything on the internet...

      The whole point of internet is to share you and your expertise.

      Pick a topic that you like... That you do everyday...

      Doesn't have to be in IM

      Example if you have passion for shoes then build a blog

      And talk about shoes and promote shoe things.

      People fail because they get in IM and think I got to choose a topic in Internet Marketing

      When really anything being sold online is Internet Marketing

    Design an APP for iPhones or Android. Doesn't need to be complex or flashy. Think of a concept and go for it. Alternatively go to Fivver and offer your services as a programmer to fix coding errors. Lots of small businesses who can't afford expensive programmers will love this. Advertise your services as a code trouble shooter.

    Try creating PLR Web templates and sell them with limited quantity.

    A good niche within web templates to start with could be squeeze/lead pages.

    Stay away from CPA. If you have the skill and credentials to program websites, then sell your services as a website developer. Set up your personal website, freelancer profiles, and dress up your profile here. Start building websites for people and make money. That's your niche and you can run with that for a long time.

    I advise thinking of a unique new idea for a website or app, and make it. There is way more money to be made with that.

    Hey. I would make a website on how to code & design your own websites, as most people don't know how to do that & it sounds like you could show them how. Then offer them extra services & themes for a fee PLUS you would make extra money whenever they signup for hosting, autoresponder, etc under you

    I recommend researching a business model, finding either someone to fulfill or your own solution to each component of your business model, and learn how to setup you business. Then you pick a niche, product/service, and strategy to market your new business. All can be done within your $50 budget.

    You need to put your talents into work. Go and offer your services as a coder/programmer. I'm sure you went to school to learn how to do this, and if you didn't receive a full academic scholarship... you probably have some student loan debt. Become a freelancer, work for yourself, learn how to market your website and service, and go hard at it. It's easier than you think to get lots of targeted traffic to your site.

      Diversifying your income potential, such as working for yourself and others, is definitely the way to go here. There are lots of people out there on the internet who have the opposite issue, they don't know how to code and would love to have a professionally coded and designed website. If someone has that type of talent and training, they can really earn well. All that in addition to owning one's own website. I don't think it has to be a choice, you can do both.

    Just an idea...

    You can design your own website on 'programming' and offer information in that niche, get a lead capture page, build a list and promote products that would convert in that niche.

    You can even include a link to your site in your WF signature and share your info and talents in the right section on WF.
