I’ve been making my living online since the end of 2002 and have enjoyed every second of it, well…almost every second.

I guess one of the neatest things about making a living online is the people you meet and the willingness to share. So I thought I would share a little as well.

Lately we’ve been doing very well and it is due to the following:

• WordPress Blogs
• Social Media Sites
• Blogger Blogs
• Squidoo Lens

Making money online is about finding hungry buyers and convincing them that your product will make their life better, easier, more productive, happier and more profitable if they owned what it is you’re selling.

It’s a combination of the right website design and the right traffic.

I am going to focus on affiliate sales but the methods will work with anything. Affiliate marketing allows me to focus on marketing and not on:

o Products
o Custom Support
o Merchant Accounts
o Accepting Payments
o Shopping Carts
o Email Systems

This system is amazingly simple yet incredibly powerful.

Our Goal Is To Convert As Many Visitors into Buyers as Possible

We will do this by focusing on a small percent of Google searches that take place each and every day in massive quantities.

So here’s how it works;

I come with a product to sell and build a website around that product. The top part of the website has a call to action, and is set up just like any other website that would be selling that product.

Under the call to action is my WordPress blog.

I add a couple plug-ins like;

akismet
all-in-one-seo-pack
auto-social
easygravatars
global-translator
google-sitemap-generator
no-ping-wait
page-link-manager
pingcrawl
privacy-policy
seo-automatic-links
seo-image
sociable
statpress-reloaded
twitter-feed
twitter-tools
wp-auto-tagger
wp-smilies
yet-another-related-posts-plugin

Okay, now the idea is to create profiles on social media sites that will link back to my main site and I also interlink those profiles back and forth to one another. Along with those I also have a number of social bookmarking sites that I bookmark to.

I try and build enough back links to the site that there is no doubt Google knows about the website, at the same time that is going on I hire someone to add content to the blog.

We come up with a list of keywords and then we add keywords to those that we feel someone that was about to buy the product would add to those keywords.

For example;

Special Offers
Cheap
Discount
Order
Promotions
Free Shipping
Store
How Much
Quality
Best
Acquiring
Best Buy
Good Buys
Deal

We have an extremely long list of these types of words that we use.

The idea is to make about 20 posts per day.

And so far this has worked great for us and the neat thing is that it’s easy to set up and you can duplicate it over and over again.

Making money online is about finding hungry buyers and convincing them that your product will make their life better, easier, more productive, happier and more profitable if they owned what it is you’re selling.

It’s really not that hard to do yet 95% of all websites online struggle to make any amount of real money.

I am going to cut through the BS and show you step by step how to make money with any product online. However, you will have to do your part, nothing comes without effort and in the online world it takes lots and lots of work. Yes, I said work, this isn’t one of those you don’t have to do anything and you’ll make millions websites.

I use the methods I am about to teach to make everyday online with a number of different websites in different niches.

The idea is to learn several different methods and then use them all together when launching your own site. As with anything, the key is to take action.

I am going to focus on affiliate sales but the methods will work with anything. Affiliates allow us to focus on marketing and not to have to worry with having our own

• Products
• Custom Support
• Merchant Accounts
• Accepting Payments
• Shopping Carts
• Email Systems

We will focus on marketing, design and SEO, as well as WordPress and other issues.

This system is amazingly simple yet incredibly powerful.

Our Goal – To Convert As Many Visitors into Buyers as Possible

We will do this by focusing on a small percent of Google searches that take place each and every day in massive quantities.

Understanding Google
Approximately 350,000,000 people search the web daily.

About 60% of those use Google for a total of 210,000,000 individuals;

30% use Yahoo for a total of 105,000,000,

9% use MSN (now Called Bing) for a total of 31,500,000 and the remaining 1% use other, smaller and less known search engines.

At this time Google is the largest and most powerful search engine to-date and sets the tone for online search with more than 210 million daily searches taking place.

It’s important to understand how people are using Google as well as what type of searches are being done. This will allow us to target the most lucrative daily searches.

A) Most people are searching for information and have no intention of making a purchase online. I’d guess the numbers around about 70% are these types of people.

B) The second largest group we’ll put at 30% and these are people that will most likely purchase in the future but are not looking to purchase anything at the moment.

C) The smallest group which is around about 2% is people that understand what they are looking for and are ready to make a purchase. Their searches will be more perfect and will contain model numbers, company names and search terms like free shipping.

Everyday millions and millions of transactions take place online and our goal is to get between the buyer and the merchant.
