What are you passionate about? If you enjoy writing you could work on developing a blog and do affiliate marketing. Focus on areas where you can provide value and expertise.

Hi Chia,

What you have listed there are examples of monetisation strategies and there is a lot more to business than simply providing content with a couple affiliate links.

All of the strategies you mentioned would be useful, yet first I recommend you build a strong foundation with your own blog dedicated to a profitable niche, which you can use to build a strong community and ultimately monetise by providing value as opposed to random affiliate links

You can get a Wordpress site set up, hosted and with a premium domain for under $20.

You can make it look awesome with a premium theme for under $100.

There's always a cheap way of doing things, you'll normally end up paying for it in time instead though. You could use a free theme or a blogging 'solution' for free, though the headaches are not worth it later on.

if i were to venture into adult or erotia adsense do not allow for that right?

Also how exactly do i drive traffic to blogs. do i post at forums and build up relationship and all those blah stuff?

Hello Chia!


Amazon Associates and other similar affiliate programs would be good for you to start your affiliate marketing business. Sooner or later you're going to learn to do other types of affiliate business. Goodluck to you!

do you feel that dropshipping is better than affiliate business?

The problem with drop shipping is that the margin is too thin to be competitive. any suggestions?

Hi
Depends what is right for you,

any of the business are great
but the key to success is to
never give up and learn from
your mistakes,

don't jump from
one business to another,

if you make a decission then make it happen...
Good Luch....

You might also consider just regular Affiliate Marketing with Digital Products. Thats kind of the standard model many newbs start out in.

if you like writing erotica why not write some erotica fiction?

Its all well and good setting up something to make money, BUT if you're not passionate about it or enjoy it, it will show in the stuff you set up, the content you write etc.

If you like writing, then write a book if you feel you have it in you...just a thought.

As mentioned, there are some basic tools & resources needed to promote anything online. Such as;

- Domain
- Hosting
- Filezilla (ftp client)
- Landing Pages (squeeze)
- Autoresponder (email marketing)
- Tracking (analytics)
- Targeted Traffic (ppc)
- Free Traffic (article syndication/blogging/forums, etc...)

...But, most importantly is knowing beforehand there is a demand & a solution.

Clearly, dropshipping & adsense may not require the same marketing approach as say; publishing affiliate products, or selling digital solutions...

But, the key elements, tools, and resources are very similar... and to market ANYTHING requires research, testing, and hard numbers to determine your success (or failure.)

Point being, I too entered this forum with a passion for writing, and quickly realized; in order to really generate success from writing... requires investments of time, effort, and money to endure the 'learning curve' and acquire the fundamental tools, resources, and knowledge to actually write & market writings for (dare I say) profit!

However, once you assemble the proper tools & resources writing is 'the main' ingredient for creating online success IMHO.

Even the best selling VSL's ( video sales letters) are crafted by some masterful copy writers, and generate sales based on the written, spoken, and/or visual messages contained therein.

Ad copy, also requires an ability to craft attention grabbing and powerful calls to action to draw potential buyers into your sales funnel.

Once in the funnel... at the landing page stage, there too - writing powerful calls to action is needed to obtain subscribers or to capture & generate leads, and direct response sales.

Sales pages, also... all based on written content to ultimately ask for... and make the sale!

Email marketing and follow ups, newsletters, blogging, social media (such as Facebook, Twitter, Medium, Buffer, forum posting, article syndication, etc... All based on writing!

Ultimately, if you "understand the following" and can provide for their wants, desires, and or their needs by providing benefit, remedy, or quality solution(s)... You can 'unlimit your writing potential' as there 'IS' a 'HUGE' demand for affiliate publishers, web content, syndicated content, guest blogging, ad copy, copywriting, info product creation (ebooks, ecourses, Kindle books, training materials, etc...)

For me personally, the 'learning curve' was much steeper climb than I anticipated. To market ANY of the ideas you are considering above, any of the 3 can be profitable... 'IF' you mentally prepare yourself to research, learn, and apply the knowledge shared here on the warrior forum.

Lastly, you will need to do your own 'due dilligence' regarding the tools, resources, and training you invest your time, effort, and money into... as there is a ton of pre-planning, aforethought, and trial & error involved... and a lot of bs to sift through getting there.

In conclusion, you and only you can decide what, where, when, and how you build your success online.

Personally, I remain focused on the solution first and foremost. If you start with a mindset to provide solution... You can research, and map out your entire game plan without spending a dime!!!

Once you know; there's a demand, a hungry consumer base, and have the nourishing solution to feed that consumers hunger... the rest will fall into place.

All the Best,

Art

PS Erotica, romance novels, and saucy "Shades of Grey" writing can be profitable, as my Mom was a Danielle Steel fanatic, and though I can't read or write that style... there 'is' a market for it!

If you are newbie of internet marketing, you can start with product launch with jvzoo. this is easy for newbie like you.
goodluck!

Promoting essential tools that everyone needs which pay recurring commissions.

NOW OF THEM.. Focus on email marketing and build your list. It's where the money is at man.. Trust!

Affiliate marketing is probably one of the most popular Internet business ideas. And it is for a good reason, even though it there’s a smell to it.

you should consider trying it

Then you should start a business online using your writing skills.

- Become a freelance writer
- Write fiction books for Kindle
- Sell writing services on Warriorforum, and Fiverr
- Start your own website and promote your writing services, and areas of expertise

I'd say offering digital marketing and copywriting services to small/medium sized businesses. Also, I'm a fan of publishing ebooks and releasing as 'pay-what-you-want' pricing. The pricing was inspired by the book Sacred Economics. I highly recommend reading it.

Chia,

Let's see ... You love to write. You're in Singapore ...

Well, you could offer your English content writing services as a telecommuting subcontractor to Singaporean companies with recently launched products, specifically those that are targeting overseas English speaking markets via Web promotions ...

When you get more than enough contracts that you can handle, perhaps you can form a team and also help other Singaporeans who have significant English content writing skills to earn decent income as your homebased subcontractors -- You help them, they help you, you help these Singaporean companies, they pay you, you split those contract payments with your team ...

While you're doing these things, set up a blog and document your content writing business start-up adventures. Along the way, provide an opt-in material that can help other Singaporeans who would want to improve their English content writing skills so as to possibly earn income as telecommuting subcontractual writers. Give your subscribers some valuable pieces of advice that can help them do what they want, based on your experience ...

By doing this, you'll have a ready pool of English content writers that you can add to your team when needed. You can also promote books, software tools and other products that can help them improve their English content writing skills, their service sales skills and so on ...

When you become good at content marketing because of your experience in handling contracts with those Singaporean companies -- You can help other companies in your country by offering your content marketing consultancy services and content writing services. So, better to include helpful content marketing topics for businesses and companies in your blog and opt-in offers ...

What do you guys think if i were to start a subscription based service for erotica genre?

Will people sign up. What do i have to do to promote? I don't see many erotica forums around

Well, if you are really expert to write you can start writing content & buy a domain & hosting. Then you will be able to earn money by doing the Adsense. Here I would like to suggest you to do the Adsense. Thanks a lot.

Listen, if you are a writer...the best thing you can do is create a blog. Create lots of content and link out to affiliate products.

If you can publish a lot of content to your site, you'll get a FLOOD of traffic from the search engines.

You can then monetize that traffic with affiliate offers and promotions. Seems simple, but you can easily create a $2000, $3000, or$20,000 per month site doing this.

Get hosting, download wordpress, buy a domain name, and start creating content.

I am going to go out on a limb here, but have you tried thinking outside of the typical MMO box?

Most MMO ideas center on mailing lists, web publishing etc.

Why not focus on offering an online software service (SAAS)?

Why not focus on an interesting twist on B2B arbitrage?

In other words, why not come up with a business idea that is VENTURE CAPITAL-fundable?

you are newbie, just need doing product launch. learn wordpress, build site and SEO onpage, offpage. You can start with jvzoo, network i'm working.

It depends how fast you need to start earning. One of the quickest ways is affiliate marketing with email mareting, selecting products and services that come with a full marketing system with opt in pages, banners etc, So all you need to do is focus on sending traffic to your optin pages, then follow up in emails. I currently use this method as its quick, fast way of earning.

If you're good writer, you can be both - Amazon affiliate AND Adsense publisher. Make a review blog or something.

I may be biased on this....well....I am.....I started learning Digital and Social Media Marketing in 2007 and in 2008, I started my own company handing Internet Marketing for Business Owners. That is all I have done the past 8 years. I have dabbled with some affiliate products during that time frame but my bread and butter is getting paid between $750.00 to $2,500.00 per client to manage or consult them with Digital and Social Media Marketing.
I wouldn't change a thing, I am very proud of my career choice and when I meet people at events, parties or bars, they all either need my services or want a career like me.

Your question: What kind of Online business should i be doing?

My answer: One that makes you a lot of money in the least amount of time.

Hello chia,
If you are a good writer and into the erotica genre I might suggest Amazon kdp primarily because of the low barrier to entry in combination with a large "potential" audience / customer base.

The amazon kdp game is going to be similar to a lot of the internet marketing businesses in that there are thousands of people doing it wrong and not making any money at it, and a few that do their homework, and make an amazing living at it.

The following two posts were found here on the warrior forum, which should give you a general idea of the actions required to do this successfully. I hope you find them helpful.

#1 ---------------------------------

#2 ----------------------------

-----------------------------

Note also - in the private forums here @ warrior they have the warrior book club devoted to Kindle publishing and marketing.

Best of luck to you !!

You can start your dropshipping with Ezusy app which allows you to add thousands of AliExpress.com products to your woocommerce shop in just one click, automate your dropshipping, fullfilled orders, auto update quantity...

I wouldn't start with what is hot right now. It looks like you have zero ideas but just want to start one of these "businesses" for the sake of doing it.

In my opinion you gave the answer to yourself already: you could start a blog, become a copywriter, maybe even write your own Kindle eBook or even start a social media channel about writing and EVERYTHING related to it.

Start with what you can bring to the table, not what everyone is talking about right now.

If you still want to learn actual important stuff about dropshipping, check my beginners video and channel about this topic. Nonetheless I'd recommend that you think about the stuff I just said, good luck

4 Main Reasons Why 95% Of Shopify Stores Fail - YouTube

[DELETED]

amazon affiliate marketing is the best way

I hope you will choose affiliate marketing for regular income and future safety

i dunno, but many warriors come to my saying they failed.....

but the real reason they failed is they try 7 things at once. Pick one, focus and do that, and make money that one.

Once you stop focusing on one thing, then you will start to chase your tail and make $0

do not be a JACK OF ALL TRADES as they say, and master of none.

The two friends of mine who do millions each year, pick one thing, FOCUS and do Hundreds of thousands each month.

Keep it simple as they say.

I prefer Digital and Social Media Marketing Consultant to Business Owners. Going on 10 Years in this space.
The rest of those 3 options, sound like chasing the next best product around and competition is steep.

If you love to write, you have the golden ticket. You can sell your writing skills. Start at Fiverr then move up to selling complete articles. If you can write the worlds your oyster. Good luck.

Amazon affiliate, if you are willing to do video reviews too - you'll knock it out the park because 80% of users don't use that to bank the extra money..

You really should consider creating your own products - digital books on Kindle or packaging them into PDF's that you sell on your own site as well as other affiliate directories such as Clickbank or Ejunkie

In the end, the reputation you build and prospect/customer list you build through marketing your own products will far outweigh anything you do selling other people's products AND you have more skin in the game so generally speaking, you will work harder at it.

Over time, you can then leverage other people (affiliates/partners) to sell your products for you which allows you to move on to the next product/ebook/book - if you good at and find writing easy, then you have a big advantage already in this area.

Not amazon affiliate, definitely!!!!!! Lots of problems, too much! https://alidropship.com/drop-shippin...es-rules-2017/

As for me, dropshipping is the bets type of eCommerce...

Why not create a blog and start posting your "writing samples" -- I am usually always on look out for content creators... Trust me.. you do that well "enough" and you will form your network with IM guys...gurus..and will soon get inside view to get going!
