For me the easiest way I have made money online is through eBay! Being an eBay affiliate is the smartest thing I have done, the only thing I regret is not signing up with them sooner.

Here’s why it’s so easy to make money with eBay.

1. People trust eBay.
2. Most people already have an account eBay and will buy through you.
3. Setting up these types of sites are easy.
4. Great products! you can find almost anything you want on eBay.
5. Price: The price of items on eBay are a lot cheaper than in retail stores.

Making money with eBay websites.

So to make money with an eBay website all you have to do is set it up then drive traffic to the site. I am going to show you an easy free way to do it! You will need an “existing” eBay affiliate account because I think they are not accepting new affiliates at the moment.

1. Build a Blogger Blog. How to set up a free blogger blog?.
2. Add listings: How to setup free eBay listings.
3. Drive traffic: How to drive free website traffic to your sites.

Promote your new blog/s for 1 month then do it again! Rinse and repeat and make a ton of easy money with eBay.

Tools You Will Need.

1. FTP Client: This is the most important tool to have when building websites, you will use this for almost any site you make. I highly recommend “SMART FTP” it’s not free but it is the best I have used, you can use “filezilla” which is free if you don’t have the cash.

2. Themes: You should think about the layout of your site before you pick a theme, there are hundreds of free themes available just type “free wp theme” into google and you’ll see them all. Download the theme/s and save it/them to your computer for later.

3. Plugins: I use these two plugins every time on all of my blogs and I highly recommend you do to, the plugins are “Why Do Work Adsense“> (Allows you to add any javascript code and any type of content within your posts and pages on your new site) and “All in One SEO Pack“> (Helps you add keywords to your individual pages and more) download and save to your computer.

There are many other plugins to use but these two are the main ones, choose additional ones if needed.

How to Setup a Wordpress Blog

1. Install Wordpress: When you have a host that provides cPanel you can install Wordpress with one click of your button. Go to Fantastico, click “Wordpress” then fill out the details needed. Click install and your done. Hostgator offers cPanel, Highly Recommended.

2. Upload Plugins and Themes: Using your FTP client upload your theme you picked (unzip the files before you upload if needed) to “wp-content/themes/” and upload your plugins to “wp-content/plugins/”

-Now login to your WP Cpanel click “Plugins” then activate. With Wordpress 2.7.1 you can add plugins automatically in the “Plugins” section. Just click “Add New” plugin.
-To Activate your new theme click “Appearance”, click “themes” then click on the theme you uploaded.

3. Add Permalinks: I hate ugly url’s like this http://ursite.com/pg-01/ change your permalink structure so your links look like this http://ursite.com/catergory/post/ clean url’s usually get the top spots in the search engines.

To add Permalinks, Login to your WP Cpanel, go to “Settings” click “Permalinks” and add your custom permalinks, very simple.

4. Add Ping List: You can find a big list of sites to ping to here http://www.dailyblogtips.com/ping-list/ to add the list of ping sites to your blog you need to be logged in to your WP cPanel, click “settings” click “writing” scroll to the bottom then add all of the sites.

5. Add Posts and Pages: On your dashboard in your cpanel click “New Post” or “New Page” then add your pre-written content.

That’s it! This is the process I use for all of my Wordpress sites, follow the steps above and you will have your blog up in no time. Bookmark This Page.

Where do I find the HopAd Builder at Click Bank?
The HopAd Builder is within your ClickBank account, to find the HopAd builder to make your new ads for your websites, you need to “Login to your ClickBank account, click “Account Settings” then you will see “Hop Ad Builder” click it then choose the type of ad you want”.

What type of Ad units do they have?
There are two types of ads units you can choose from, you can make normal Text ads like this…

Or you can make Tabbed boxed ads like this…

How do I setup the Text Ads?

1. You choose the “TEXT” option (you will see this option as soon as you click “Hop Ad Builder” in your settings account.)
2. You add the keywords of the ads you want displayed (so if you have a site based on weight loss you would add weight loss as a keyword) then add your ClickBank ID and a Tracking ID (optional).

How do I setup the Tabbed Box Ads?
The boxed ad setup is a little different, you can have up to 3 tabs with your affiliate links within.

You need to…
Choose 3 Titles for each Tab.
Choose 3 sets of Keywords for each Tab.
Then ad your Affiliate ID and a Tracking Id.

3. Apearance Settings: Now you can choose the layout of the ad including colors, size, shape and so on.

Text Ad Appearance Settings.

Box Tab Appearance Settings.

Click “NEXT” then you will be able to grab the code…

Copy and Paste the Code: Now you copy the code and paste it into your web page, add it to a wp plugin or add it to your WP sidebar widgets. I use the WhyDoWork Adsense plugin on all of my Wordpress websites, I have added my code to that and it is working great! Remember that you can place the code anywhere you want.

If you are looking for an alternative to Adsense then this is it, good luck and I hope this post helps you.

Here’s what I did….

-I setup wordpress
-Added pre written posts and pages: 7 pages and 4 posts
-I added 2 plugins PhpBay Pro and WhyDoWork Adsense
-I added a big list of ping sites.
-Then published the blog.

It’s been 3 weeks since I put the site up properly and I have been able to accumulated 800 unique visitors with NO PROMOTION, all of these visitors came from the search engines.

Check out the website traffic images here…

Website Traffic Image 2:

It’s so funny because that site that is a .info and has been active for only 2 months, that website is getting more traffic than this site.

HOT TIP: Don’t just submit your content to 1 or 2 social bookmarking sites, submit to all of them and get the exposure and traffic you need.

Here’s 4 easy ways to lose money online.

1. Gambling!:
Yep 1# is gambling online, yes you can win big but you can also lose big. If you’re really wanting to make it big in internet marketing then leave gambling alone until you are rich.

2. PPC - Pay Per Click Advertising:
If you don’t know anything about PPC I would highly recommend you steer clear of PPC, again you can make thousands but you can also lose just as much. Focus on Free Website Traffic.

3. Ebooks:
Don’t buy it unless you need it! I would recommend searching “digital point forum” for ebooks because they are cheap and usually very informative. Avoid Clickbank ebooks at all costs unless they are tools like BANS, keyword tools and so on.

4. Black Hat Marketing:
If you’re not careful you can lose your entire online business doing black hat marketing. You can lose you’re hosting, affiliate accounts and cash you have in those affiliate accounts, it’s just not worth it. Be very careful if you choose to go into black hat marketing, protect yourself fully and have a backup plan if all goes wrong.

Just be very careful when you’re about to buy something online read all of the fine print and make sure there are some real reviews from real people who have brought the product.

Blogging is sort of like having a message board that automatically rotates your articles.

Example of a blog post: If wrote an article titled “Most Fashionable Celebrity Dogs” that was 300 words in length and I added a video, and images i would have a post. When published that post will show up in the front of my blog. Before publishing the post to my blog I would then add tags like dogs or dog fashion. I would also add a category because the articles about “Celebrity Dogs” I would place this article in the celebrities category.

By adding the post to a category you separate your content into related groups so any other post you wrote about celebrities will show up when you click a link in the category section.

Aside from posting you can also add pages to a Web Blog. Actually with Wordpress you can make a totally normal static website. More Info Here>> How to Build a Static Wordpress Website. Wordpress is the ULTIMATE blogging platform, if you are considering blogging make sure your web host has Fantastico so you can install your blog with 1 click of your button and for free on your domain.

Like I said above blogging is just updated content, just like news sites. TMZ.com, PerezHilton.com, JohnChow.com and the list of Bloggers goes on.

Four Affiliate Marketing Must Haves…

1. An Affiliate Marketing Guide or Blueprint:
It’s really helps when you have a plan to follow, because without a plan, you plan to fail.
2. Website Hosting. (Try HostGator)
3. Website Building Platform. (I use Wordpress for all of my sites)
4. Nice themes. (Some themes can help you make lots of money, if you use Wordpress there are hundreds of free ones available)

Most guides to getting rich online have their own step by step system but they all sorta talk the same junk.

Build a website, Drive Traffic & Make Money.

But that’s all you need to do, the problem is traffic. Getting new visitors to your website each and every day.

So now you need tools for traffic and research
Here are 3 Top tools you should consider buying for your internet business.

If you want to get into Buying and Selling websites then I have to recommend this guide to you. It’s called Flip Mastery by a very nice lady named Kate Anderson. Kate has put together one of the best “How To’s” I have seen for making big cash flipping websites.

Like me Kate is a stay at home mom with children who is running a great/very successful online website flipping business. She is offering an awesome package to help anyone wanting to learn how to make big dollars selling websites.

This website flipping package has 5 step by step modules.

1. Core Website Flipping Info:
The first Module is a massive 130 page guide showing you the exact methods Kate used to make over $100,000.00 flipping websites in only a few months.

2. Flipping Web Blogs:
Will show you how to get the most money you can flipping blogs even if you’ve never done it before!

Here Is 5 Ways You Can Save Money.

1. Don’t Do Takeaways.
Instead of buying food from places like Mac Donalds, KFC, Subway and Taco Bell, buy from the supermarket! It’s much fresher and healthier for you, you will save a ton of money if you stay away from these places.

2. Buy in Bulk.
You never know when you might need something so I would recommend buying in bulk. When you buy more you usually pay less so look for the bargains.

3. Buy Second Hand Car Parts.
If you’re car needs to be fixed but you don’t have much money, why not buy the parts second hand. Mechanics will usually check over your vehicle before they start working on it. After they have checked out your vehicle, ask your mechanic what parts you will need.

Once you know what to buy find your local car wreckers and buy the parts. Once you have the parts take them back to the mechanics and have them fitted. In the end you will pay for the parts and the labor, this price will be considerably less than buying the parts brand new.

4. Coupons and Food Vouchers.
When you go shopping you will usually get special offers on the back of your shopping docket. You can sometimes find Buy 1 Get 1 Free offers in there or 50% off coupons. Type “Discount Coupons” into Googles search engine to get more info.

5. Open a Separate Bank Account.
To make sure you start saving some real cash I would recommend opening up a separate bank account that incurs interest. To make sure you don’t touch the money ask the bank if you can put a block on the account.

Put 5%-10% of your wages in to this account and watch your money grow. Once you have saved enough then you can look at investing or purchasing a brand new property.

There you have it 5 Ways to Save Money.

1. Choose a topic:
First you need to choose a topic (in any niche/area of information you are knowledgeable in) to write about. I usually go with internet marketing because it’s a huge market. There are 2 great places where you can sell your ebooks, these websites have tons of traffic and loads of hungry buyers.

Once you’ve figured out what to write about move on to step 2.

2. Get Open Office Writer to Make Your Ebook:
To begin writing your ebook you will need OpenOfficeWriter which is free. Download and install it on your computer.

Once done move on to step 3.

3. Start writing!
Now that you have OpenOfficeWriter you need to start writing your ebook.

You will need…
1. A Disclaimer, 2. Terms of use, 3. Content Menu, 4. Content (include screen shoots as well to make your ebook less boring and to help readers visualize what you are talking about, especially good if you are doing a step by step guide).

Add all content then publish as a PDF file, you will see this option in Open Office Writer.
Go to step 4.

4. Your Finished!
So that’s it, you have just made your very first ebook! It’s time to sell it.

5. Where to sell your ebook?
These are the best places to sell IM products, if you write a really good ebook you can make $1,000.00+. NOTE: If you have chosen a different niche you will have to find related forums to promote your product.

1. The Warrior Forum:
It costs $20.00 to post an ad, you will want to place it in the WSO section of the forum. If you do not have any posts on this forum then I would recommend highly you get at least 200 posts behind you before you place your ad or you will not make many sales (unless you have a killer forum ad and substantial proof).

2. Digital Point Forum:
FREE!!! It’s free to place ads at Digital point but you need to have at least 20 post first I think. “iTraders” mean trust on this forum, the iTraders you have the more sales you will make.

6. Placing your AD:
-When you place your ad make sure to include proof of what ever your ebook will help them with.
-Provide as much information as possible to make the sale.
-Check out what your competition is doing and make your ad better.

IMPORTANT: Before you place your ads you need to get reviews. Offer your ebook for free to 3-6 TOP forum members who have posts of 500 or more in return for a review. This makes your product look more reputable, but watch out if your products doesn’t deliver they will give you a bad review.

Once your ad has been placed on either forum people with start to message you. Reply back to them with your paypal payment details or what ever information they want to know. Once they have paid, email the ebook to them and you’re done, you made your first sale/s.

Fast Money Offline:

1. Sell something to a pawn shop:
Pawn shops are good but watch out, they usually won’t pay what you expect or want.

2. Do odd jobs for neighbors or friends. Speaks for itself.

3. Sell your vehicle:
Cars are always in demand and if you want quick large cash then you can sell your car.

4. Get a Job:
People are always looking for workers, you can find jobs on and offline.

Easy Money Online: Making money offline is so not fun! Build online assets and sell your most poorest performing ones or if you want big cash sell your most profitable ones.

1. Sell an existing website:
If you have some old PLR or small unique websites doing nothing I wold recommend you sell those if you really want some quick cash.

2. Sell domains at Digital point or eBay:
I sell my domains at Digital point, but you can also try eBay. I have heard of people selling domains their for almost 100x the price they brought the domain for.

3. Write a ebook and sell it on the Warrior and Digital point forums:
Writing an ebook is simple, in fact the next post I write will be about how to setup your own ebook and sell it without a sales page.

4. Package PLR articles and sell them on Digital point forums:
PLR used to be a super hot business, I used to sell huge packages for cheap. 1 of the packages included 32,000.00 PLR Articles, 100+ MRR Ebooks, 100+ Website Templates and Scripts and 10 PLR Ebooks for $17.00. It sold like hotcakes!!!

There you go, 8 fast, quick and easy ways to make some extra money!.

How about a follow up to this article. Are any of the sites making you good money? How many have you gotten set up so far and what is your most profitable day with one of your sites? Rick

Now, you guys & girls you should know that I only have 3 sites that are currently running PHP Bay Pro which means my income is not that high, I have been very busy selling websites and helping other online marketers so I haven’t had time to build and promote more websites.

I will say that this is my most profitable day so far, most of the other days incomes are from $1.00-$7.00.

I have not promoted any of the three sites in any way, I did a little SEO and the search engines do the rest (as in sending buyers/traffic to my websites).

Here’s how much I made with PHPBayPro today…

I made $22.00 today from eBay’s partner network, which is not too bad. The site has high priced products which are always in demand. PHP Bay Pro is awesome and I highly recommend it to everyone! Check out my PHPBayPro Review.

The amount of ads you have to write and place is so not worth the time and effort you have spend to make a few dollars.

I think it’s best to write articles and submit them to Ezine Articles and a few other article sites, as of today I will be closing my USFREEADS account as I feel it was a waste of my time (I did however, make all of my money back). If you’re like me and you’re into getting fast/long lasting traffic to your website then this ain’t for you.

On the plus side your ads do get listed in the search engines, but for how long???? <<<This will vary depending on how good your ad/s is.

I will admit that I didn’t try the UsFreeAds “Featured Ads” service which gets your ads on 50 other related websites, so I am not sure if that will bring hoards of traffic to your site. It’s looks like a good service and I know of people who have had great success with it.

If you don’t mind spending a few hours writing and placing ads then this might be for you, just know you need to place hundreds of ads to get any sort of traffic to your website. Remember to use good keywords as well because you’re ads will get picked up by the search engines.
