Wednesday, June 2, 2010

The Internet provides hundreds of money making opportunities and can give you a secondary income. While some of the online business models require knowledge of websites, search engine optimization and blogs, there are actually other money making opportunities that require no computer programming or website design skills to begin. But for any type of online business model that you decide to begin, you need to be prepared to put in some monetary investment and hard work to achieve the result that you expect.

Here below are some of the common ways which you can use to make money online. Choose one which you can closely relate to at least in the initial stages and then gradually expand your knowledge.

Freelancing
Freelancing can say to be the easiest way to get started for people who want to have an extra income source on the Internet. You will just need to open a PayPal account and register in websites like Freelancer.com, oDesk.com or eLance.com and check out the many hundreds of free lancing jobs available. You can make money by writing articles, researching on something and even taking tuition to others in areas you are an expert in.

Blogs
The Blog platforms like Wordpress and Bloggers allow you to create blog easily without knowledge of HTML or programming languages like PHP. Register a domain name in a website like GoDaddy, host your blog and start writing about your favorite topic or hobby. Register in a program like Google AdSense and insert their Ads in your blog. When people read your blog and click on the Ads, you will get paid by Google. You can also set ad space on your blog for sale to the prospective advertisers directly.

Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate Marketing is a lucrative way to earn money online. You sell other peoples products by writing articles and reviews about them. When people purchase the product after reading your article and clicking on the affiliate link, you will get a commission on the sale. List building works well in affiliate marketing. You should consider setting up a squeeze page to collect the email addresses of your potential buyers. This way you will follow-up with them from time to time to generate potential sales through email marketing.

Digital Product Sales
It’s easy nowadays to create a digital product which answers a desperate question (ex: How to lose weight) in the form of an eBook and sell your book through a website like ClickBank. Affiliate marketers will sell the book for you for a cut of the sales.

There are also numerous other ways like website flipping, selling physical products on Amazon and eBay using which you can make money online.
