    Start learning, not buying cheap products saying "how to make money".

    - get the basic concept of marketing
    - ignore all these cheap products
    - invest in learning from premium forums. Free opened forums are just for people like you - newbies who are buying cheap products and after 2 weeks quitting the game because they didn't make a penny of that.

      Thats good advice but not really relevent to the initial thread.

      What is the easiest way you have found to make money online?

      Not what not to do to make money online

      Thanks for the tips though.

      I kinda disagree with this.
      Learning is great, but action is way better...
      Learn only what will get you to the next step
      Learn less and start selling... (Action)
      You will learn quickly from your mistakes.

      Product or Offer - Squeeze Page - Video - Solo Ads - List Building

      For me it's Elance.

      Market is there, they are ready to buy, competition is mostly... well... not serious.

      Especially competition on a higher level of the scale. Most providers on Elance are bottom feeders. So far for me it's the easiest way to make money.

      In general, providing services is the easiest and fastest way to make cash online (especially on a shoestring budget..).

      Flippa is good as well but it calls for more job, money and time the get that money into bank account.

      Renting ranked sites it's a good business as well.

      Also, getting shares in business instead of being paid for SEO services is a great long term option (I'm going after that mostly right now).

      For someone new however, I would say seling services is definitely the best way to start.

        Interested in what services you are doing on Elance?

        I have been trying out Freelancer recently to get some new clients and had terrible experience there. 3 clients not paying and just disapearing even with tracked hours.

        And very poor support. Plus a lot of bidders who bid stupid prices

        Interested to how you are finding Elance and if you have tried Freelancer could compare them

          Yes I have tried Freelancer and no success over there. On the other hand, I'm able to find clients on Elance relatively fast (I do SEO and some WP design).

          Of course, Elance is overloaded with people who claim that can rank sites TOP5 for as low as $10 a month However, this isn't a problem for me. Actually it helps me stand out of that crowd and get GOOD clients MUCH easier.

          I had one situation that client wasn't responsive and I thought he is not going to pay me. After few weeks he paid (I think he was doing to much buzz etc...).

          If you had 3 clients not paying you it probably means you have been looking for wrong clients (low paying jobs, no upfront payment). My advice, always go for high end jobs and ALWAYS ask for at least 50% upfront.

    I started out with affiliate marketing but only recently began indulging in product creation and have been overwhelmed with the results. The only problem is a lot of the info products I create take a long time to make.

    I will vote for selling services. Not everything works for everyone. For some people affiliate product selling may works well, other may go for adsense. The important part here is to concentrate on one thing through which you are looking to make money.

    I can't think of any easy way I’ve made money because all ways were very difficult, especially in the beginning.

    However, I can say that the money I make for the Squidoo lenses I have created once in my life is like a gift for me because I had created these pages to promote my own business. I have to keep updating these lenses, otherwise their traffic drops, but this is very simple.

    Most flipping/reselling/arbitrage methods are on the easy side. I've made a full time living selling other peoples work, not other people products, other peoples services, and of all the other methods I've used, that is by far the easiest...

    BUT!....
    The word "easy" varies widely in the world of Internet marketing... I think we all learn that the hard way at some point... :rolleyes:

    Hi FitMarketer,

    One of the ways I have found to make easy money online is as follows:

    1) Buy some articles from right here on the Warrior Forum or get them from Elance.com & turn them into an ebook. Stick within these money topics: Health, Wealth or Make Money Online.

    2) Create an ebook cover. You can get one done at Fiverr.com for $5.

    3) Convert the ebook & cover to PDF format.

    4) Set up a squeeze page & download page via Get Response or Aweber autoresponders & upload the ebook to your server via an FTP software e.g. Filezilla. Also purchase a domain from Namecheap.com or GoDaddy.com (Check Youtube for how-to vids regarding this setup).

    5) Send Traffic via Youtube videos, solo ads, etc.

    6) Count your cash.

    selling services - it's a good idea
    but you have to find your clients (promote your offer) because how else will they find you? &
    of course you have to offer high quality services
    with free advertising coupons, e.g., $100 coupon
    it's easy to test if your website will convert or not



    fiverr-
    if you're a brand-new seller
    with no reputation & no sales -
    then I don't think it's a good was to earn money
    cause fiverr is already super overcrowded
    & your offer will get lost in the sea of newly created offers



    flippa?
    can be
    but you do have to know what you're doing
    otherwise you risk losing money easily

    I personally like finding low-competition though valuable keywords
    building sites on them
    then push these sites on the first google page
    then selling them on Flippa
    - it's not easy, it's time-consuming & so on
    but it's something real


    by the way
    recently I found some funny site
    I've never tested this service myself
    but to me it looks like something easy to play with
    & at the same time earn some peanut money / gift cards
    I've accidentally found this site because of it's high rank
    it's an about 100 top site of the Internet
    therefore logically I think if it's so popular
    then many people use it on a regular basis
    it's Earn Reward Points and Redeem Them For Free Stuff at Swagbucks.com
    (not affiliate link)
    but this site is just to play with it
    you won't earn something big here

    however, the most important thing
    don't jump from offer to offer
    find what already brings money to many people
    & what you're comfortable with
    & stick to this biz model
    make money with it


    btw
    I personally think that
    to make money online is
    harder than to make money in real life -
    i.e., not online

      Hey there! Personally I recommend network marketing, and to be honest the best way to make money is build your credibility through social media.

      If people know who you are, that your real, and that your providing something your already making money off of...

      The conversion rates will be a lot higher on your traffic. PPC adds are also great but you need to target your market properly and obviously need to make sure that your cost per click isn't exceeding your actual potential income.

      Always do your research and figure out what source of advertising is best! Funneling your traffic back through your social media accounts is a great way to keep a customer in your potential circle of marketing.

      Happy internet selling!

        But with all the people jumping from program to program online are you sure this is the easiest way since the stranger you recruit online will most likely jump to the next hottest shiny object type opportunity that comes along and especially since they do not know you and so there is no lasting glue between both of you to keep them from jumping.

          I would have to say for me and my online network marketing business, that's where forming a "relationship" comes in. Yes, I find them initially online, however I make contact and get that person plugged in to a large support group so they don't feel alone. In any network marketing business its RELATIONSHIPS that will hold your business together. Relationships is what will have people jumping out of your business or the glue that will hold your team together.

    This is going to sound crazy.. but the easiest money I make online is selling Kefir grains on Amazon.com (if you don't know what they are just Google them.) I make them anyway (use raw cows milk to make them) and then I just put two table spoons in a bag and ship them off. I only make about $5 a sale, but I have a stack of envelopes and baggies so really no extra cost out of my pockets. My friends think its weird but I'm really into health and it cost me nothing extra to make. The post office is literally right around the corner from my house so I don't burn up gas sending it out. This is not big money, but to date its the easiest. Oh, and I forgot, two weeks ago going through my house doing fall cleaning and decided to sell whatever sat around that I don't or wont be using in the near future. Just on three items alone that I don't use and wanted to get rid of I made $75.00 selling them on Facebook. Not big money but hey every little bit counts!!!

    Bar none the easiest way to make your first $$ on line is eBay and Amazon sales. I made my first $1000 the first week I sold on Amazon. My neighbor had a garage full of stuff that he didn't want and I just started listing stuff. I love the FBA (Fullfillment by amazon model) as you can box and ship several items at once to Amazon and then they fulfill the orders as items are purchased. They have some great tools for estimating profit and setting things up.

    You can even have amazon fullfillment centers ship your eBay orders. You learn many of the basics by selling through these market places, you can build a list, learn how to to write copy etc.

    Get the eBay mobile app as you can literally list an item in 5 minutes. Then just take all that old stuff you don't want and start listing things. :-)

    All the Best!

    PS: List building is the next most profitable, but ultimately creating products and selling are the highest leverage options.

    I've made some money with affiliate products, bloggin, and article writing in the past. When I finally really started learning IM, list building and sales funnels, that's when things started getting good. I'm at the point where it's getting easier to extract money from my list with affiliate membership programs as well as with products.

    For me, it had to be doing some user testing - you get paid like $10 to record a short review of a website using a standard script. The better you are, the more tests you get too - at one point, I was using this as pocket money to feed my theme and plugin purchases

    For me, the ABSOLUTE easiest way that I have found to make money
    online is to sell to people who have lots of money to spend, and know
    that they have to spend that money on what I offer.

    What I sell is something that practically EVERYONE on the Warrior
    Forum has more of that 98% of the world... that is internet marketing
    expertise. It's hard not to visit this forum day after day, and not
    develop some expertise.

    Then, your only challenge is finding people who desperately NEED
    your expertise and are WILLING to pay for it, and can AFFORD to
    pay for it.

    For me, that market is local offline business owners.

    My model is very simple... and not different from what I do when
    targeting the "internet marketing niche." In the IM space, I publish
    articles, conduct webinars, and blog about the topic, PROVING that
    I know my topic... and I recommend products and services to my
    audience.

    In the local offline market, I simply offer a free weekly teleseminar
    on topics such:

    Setting up a blog
    LinkedIn For Business
    Facebook For Business
    Twitter For Business
    Using Press Releases
    Creating Info Products As Lead Generators
    Reputation Management
    Podcasting Or Hosting Your Own Radio Show
    Using Pay-Per-Click Advertising
    List-Building
    Publishing A Digital (or Physical Newsletter)
    Publishing A Book (Physical And Digital) Primarily To Establish Authority And Generate Leads
    Etc.... all of the topics that we typically discuss on this forum.

    I spend an hour a week, actually teaching my ideal clients, firmly
    establishing myself in their minds as THEIR go-to person on the
    topic, and when they need one of the services that I offer, it's
    natural for them to turn to someone who has developed into a
    trusted adviser.

    You can see how I've actually set this up at:
    Chamber Business Training Center

    I'm in the process of moving the site from a previous setup,
    to setting it up on OptimizePress where I'll also use WishList
    to control access to a membership area... where recordings are
    stored... so just pay attention to the front page for now. There
    you'll see that I've list about 16 ALREADY SCHEDULED webinars
    that I'll be personally conducting over the 5 months or so.

    I drive traffic to the site in all of the "standard" ways, to
    include social media posts/announcements, and business owners,
    with money already set aside to grow their businesses, register
    (joining my list in the process).

    Eventually, I'll probably charge a monthly membership fee for
    access to the archives, and some bonus training. For now, it's
    free... but just imagine having a site like that with say 2000
    members paying $47 per month membership fee. That's
    2000 x 47 X 12 = $1,128,000 per year before deducting taxes
    and expenses.

    So, I've just told you how to make a million dollars per year with
    ONE website. That's before you consider the income from offering
    those businesses things like websites, mobile apps, social media
    management, etc, on the backend... which is where the real money
    is at

    Is that a realistic expectation?

    It is for me because of the amount of networking that I do with
    business groups in numerous locations. $47 per month is NOTHING
    to them, and there are MILLIONS of small business owners who are
    my ideal customers and that I can easily get in front of.

    That's a rather long answer....

    The short answer is give away free content, and after you've
    proven your expertise, and delivered value, they flock to you!

    The easiest way to start making money online is selling affiliate products using PPV marketing:

    1. Go to clickbank or clicksure and choose a good product to promote. A good product is a product that is already in demand and paid a high commission ($80+). On clickbank, choose a product that has a gravity parameter higher than 50 ie affiliates are competing on it ie internet marketers are already making money from it.

    2. Click on Promote Button to get your affiliate link. Simply enter your account nickname and your tracking ID for your chosen product if you want to monitor your results effectively.

    3. Craft a high-response squeeze page for your product.


    4. Lunch your PPV Marketing using Trafficvance, Adkownledge or Mediatraffic. Always send traffic to the squeeze page that promotes your affiliate product. So, you can send them follow-up emails to promote similar products and make money too.

    Yes, I have heard about flipping the most profitable way to earn money online but never tried out. For sometime, I was trying to earn cash by selling things on eBay but that does not work for me for long time. After that, I started work and make money through blogging and freelancing projects. I believe one of the best ways to make money online is through promotion with articles. It can take a little more time to produce visitors than using PPC. But it is much less expensive.

    I will answer the question but with reservations. I have never made easy money online. Everything I have earned I have worked for, and worked hard for. This job can be as grueling as a 12 hour shift on my feet at the hospital with eight patients. It can be just as stressful as my job as a nurse sometimes, trying to make deadlines, losing the virtual employee to the virtual flu and having to find a replacement quick, nothing makes affiliates madder than not launching when you say you will.

    I love this. I was just talking with someone about people quitting. I told him I can't understand it, I mentor someone just to see them stop, or do paid coaching to see them follow through till the coaching is over.

    The rule is real, about 2 percent of the people I have helped are still making money online. When people find out this is real work, they tend to quit looking for that make money on autopilot button.

    With that said, there is no easy way to make money on the net. It takes work and time, unless you got lucky fell into a new niche and started banking but that would come to an end and you would still have to work to get the experience you need to earn the money you want.

      I agree. I wrote a Kindle book about an alternative fuel and made some easy money with it. I sent traffic to it using forums and flyers. Just FYI, you don't need a Kindle reader to read a Kindle book. Any Mac or Windows PC will do.

    Services such as simple web design, and video creation is the easiest to sell for me, and has the biggest paydays, but working with clients can be a pain.

    Selling info ebooks is also a great profit model if you can get the affiliates and traffic to your converting offer. A combination of the two is the best business model I have found for me.

    To answer your question in another way... There are so many ways that you just have to pick one and go for it. Learn all you can about that one strategy. There will be soo many shiny objects that will distract you so you just have to hold true to your choice. I remember in the beginning of my IM days I would try to learn EVERYTHING and it was just too much! Still is. so just pick what you like best, whatever fits your lifestyle you want and what you enjoy and stick with it and slowly build upon that foundation

    You are right. Flipping domains or websites is a nice way to earn really good income online. I have stories of people who have made thousands of dollars just by flipping websites. However, my favorite is affiliate marketing. It also works great for me and hope, it will continue to be. Affiliate marketing is highly profitable and I find it the easiest way for me to make money online. I think you are more interested in Flipping business than affiliate marketing.

    The easiest way I have made money online is by directing traffic to my squeeze page in order to build my list. Building list is one of the most important steps to make money online. Some people say that the money is in the list. That's true. The list represents your customer base. You could then either promote affiliate products or your own products to your list. They subscribe to your list because they want to learn from you. However, just be careful not to spam them and flood their email inboxes.

    Easiest money I've ever made online was three years ago when I released an e-book about a particular online monetizing method. It turned out that the e-book sales itself made me more money than the method inside the e-book.

    Bout a year ago I picked up a Wordpress theme and plug-in combo that churns out masses of video posts lifted direct from sites like YouTube, Daily Motion and Metacafe.

    I set up a site and didn't give it another thought for a couple of months. When I eventually checked my stats I saw it was getting hundreds of uniques every day.
    So I added the most basic Affiliate links and started making a nice little monthly sum from Amazon.

    Since then I've rinsed and repeated, refined my design and SEO I've been churning out my own video silo sites which combined are starting to become a major part of my income.

    But probably the easiest cash I ever made was releasing a bunch of blog posts, through a slightly grey-ish hat and now defunct social sharing tool (social pipes as I recall) on the night Steve Jobs sadly passed away.

    I'm sure he'd have approved of me taking my affiliate cut from the huge spike in sales of his various biographies, plus all those over-priced Apple goodies that shifted in the following week.
    Now that really was easy cash.

      Hate to be a bore, but I don't think I've ever found an easy way to make money.

      I've made money from PPC, but that took research, content creation, and the sweaty construction of landing pages.

      I made money from the Bum Marketing Method back in the day - a super simple concept, but it still involved hammering out thousands of words for hours at a time about subjects I couldn't give a toss about.

      I've written profitable Kindle books, but they require more of the same as the BMM, with more drafting and refinement, as well as finger-bruising Photoshopping to create covers.

      I'm still waiting for that push-button system that allows you to paste a link somewhere which floods your account with tens of thousands of dollars. Odd that I'm still waiting, though, as it seems to be promised by so many

    WSOs is probably the easiest way to make money online.

    You have
    1. A hungry crowd
    2. If you do a little research you know exactly what the hungry crowd wants.

    Yes, there is some work involved. Like with every other method.

    The main advantage of WSOs: You take a lot of guess work out.

    You do not have to wonder whether something ranks or whether
    you get traffic or not etc.

    You might not get rich overnight with 1 WSO but if you do some reading and study what you see you will find it's not that hard.

    I made some few bucks pretty easily on Fiverr. Affiliate marketing and adsense are other methods that will eventually earn you good money.

    Fastest and easiest for me was Facebook and Facebook ads

    First campaign I hit an absolute grand slam, profit right from the first click.

    I don't use that as my main stream of income, but it's nice to have

    Then of course, you just can't go wrong with Email marketing...

    But you have to actually, you know, like write content for an email...

    Who wants to do that nowadays :p

    Selling products I don't own and don't have to ship on eBay and Amazon is the easiest way I've ever made money. No PPC, No PPV, No SEO, No building squeeze pages, No Tracking commissions, No Getting approved by CPA Networks. If your grandma can understand it then it's easy.

    The easiest way is t build an email list, and set up an automated funnel that makes you money.

    Nothing comes close really in terms of making good money online.
