Most people that start off, they want to make money with no money and usually it’s a lot harder. But don’t you guys worry, if I can do it, I’m sure everyone else can as well. But its all about hard work, dedication and most importantly, learning.
I was having a discussion with an old friend last night and when I told them that I was an online entrepreneur they expressed lots of interest on what I do. So, when I explained the various things I do to make money (blog, build websites, sell sites, affiliate marketing, design banners/headers, etc) they wanted to do the same, especially for their local company.
Of course, most people that have no idea on how to make money online, they always question how you can actually do so. Remember, a lot of people have no idea and they still won’t. More than likely they are the same ones clicking on your ads, signing up for your products, etc.
But every single person I talk to that is starting from scratch, they want to make money with no money because everyone wants to make money (and who doesn’t?!) but they never want to spend money.
Now it’s definitely doable. I started with basically no money invested and I’m making a decent amount monthly. Of course, the more money you make, the bigger you get, eventually you’re going to spend money to reinvest into your business.
Luckily for us, everything we spend money on for our business is tax deductible expenses. So, don’t be afraid to spend money.
Anyways, you guys are here to learn how to make money with no money. This is how I would start:
- Create a website/blog from any free blogging platform or free webpage company that allows you to display ads. I started off on Blogger.com and when I eventually made some money, I paid for my own domain name(s), hosting, etc. There are plenty of sites that are free and apply you to put your ads on, you just need to know where to look.
- Learn, learn, learn. You can never stop learning because everything changes so frequently. You want to learn how to get ranked in search engines, you want to learn how to build links, you want to learn how to get traffic… I mean, you want to learn how to make money online, right? I would suggest reading anything that may help you, Google topics that you think would benefit you, etc. That’s what I did, it may be a long learning process but it’ll be well worth it.
- Reinvest into your business with the money you make. Technically, anything that you make is a plus. So, if you make $100, I would reinvest that into purchasing domains, hosting, etc. Like I mentioned before, they are all tax deductible so its almost like you’re not even paying for it to begin with. Because next year, you’re just going to write all of that off.
- Focus on what works for you and what doesn’t. Like I mentioned, learning is a large part of it. But just because something worked for someone else, it doesn’t necessarily mean it will work for you exactly the same. Testing is important and that narrows things down for you to focus on. Again, everyone will have different results so its up to you to see what works for you.
- Take action! If you’re a dreamer, your dreams will be just that. If you want to make your dreams your reality, you have to take action. I see so many people that learn and has all the knowledge to make thousands monthly but they just sit there and no absolutely nothing with that information they obtained. So, take action! What’s the worst that can happen? You learn from your mistakes. Exactly.
This is just a quick guideline on how to make money with no money. I can write a detailed step by step but then again, don’t you have to do some work?
The image isn’t my traffic.
See, a lot of people already know how to get spikes of traffic, most people submit to StumbleUpon or try to get on the frontpage of Digg or some other equivalent social media/bookmarking site. But if you notice, the traffic and everything is nice (except if it crashes your server) but you never really see a drastic increase in your earnings to really care for it.
I’ve been doing this online stuff for a couple years now and I tend to the some of the same things that continue to make me money. For instance, someone asked me if I still do what methods in the $100/Day from Adsense post and the simple answer is “yes.”
I may do it less but I still do it when I have a chance. Of course, it’s nice to have another source of income when doing that.
But I tend to check my stats (earnings and traffic) regularly and so should all of you guys. The reason why is the fact that you always need to analyze these stats, improve on different aspects, etc. Some of the stats may even surprise you and work in your benefits.
The reason why I bring analyzing stats up (and this post) is because I noticed a drastic jump in my traffic and earnings for one of my sites. And get this, I haven’t even touched the site for the last 5-6 months.
Without giving away the site, keywords, etc, let’s say its something that people would search for regularly, especially when a specific event or something happens.
I’ll give you guys an example. Say you have a website based on the show American Idol, well, that show takes place every year so you know whenever the show is on, you should expect extra spikes in traffic as well as increased earnings.
And yes, even if it’s not the latest information on that year’s show. You should still see the spikes.
I know that’s not the best example especially compared to my site in which I don’t even have to do anything to the site from now on. But let’s say if you happened to blog about something that happens monthly, annually, whatever, then whenever that “thing” happens, well, you should see spikes.
So, you guys could do this in a few different ways. You could simply build sites based on something you know will happen regularly and just let it sit there and watch spikes happen throughout the year or just continue to blog and eventually it’ll come.
I wish I could give you guys a better example of what I’m talking about, but I hope you guys get the point. If I can think of another one, I’ll try to add it on here.
Hope that helps!
Ever since I started my online entrepreneurship a few years ago, I’m constantly seeing how people struggle to make Adsense money. Well, I decided that I would go into some details on how to make Adsense money the easy and the hard way.
Before I get into the various ways on how to make Adsense money, you can make a lot from the technique I have on the $100/Day from Adsense but a lot of people seem as though they don’t want to work hard for the money.
But the method is already proven by some of my readers including one that made $2,000 in one day as well as someone who tried it for the very first time and made $19 on the first day.
Anyways, let’s get into various techniques on how to make Adsense money, shall we?
Automated Blogs
Remember when I wrote “Automated Blogs for Adsense”, well, that goes into some details on how to set one up and what to avoid when doing so.
I tried it out and probably made a few dollars here and there but I think it’s a little unethical and I felt in the long run I would get in trouble so I stopped. But if you want to try it out for yourself, check out that post.
Small Niche Sites for One-Time Setups
If you have been a reader or subscriber of DatMoney for a while, then I’m sure you know that I set up a bunch of small niche sites on a one-time basis and just leave it there to accumulate Adsense earnings. I wrote details on how to build a niche website and I still do that.
I basically create a bunch of them and just let it sit there and gain earnings. I rank them in search engines for a particular keyword and just watch people come and click away.
Now some of the websites don’t do as well as others. Some only make like $10/month while I have others that make up to $100/month. I know that doesn’t seem like much but say I have 10 websites setup making an average of $40 between them, then I’d be making $400/month continually and I don’t have to touch the site ever again!
High Paid Keyword Sites
You know there are a lot of high paying keywords for each individual click out there. And just because they have lots and lots of competition, it doesn’t mean you still can’t compete.
For instance, we all know how overly saturated the make money online niche is but quite frankly, you don’t even need to rank on the first page of search engines to make money. I know you probably won’t be making thousands every month but I set one up and I barely touch it and I make $20-$100 monthly. This is also with very, very minimal traffic. I mean, the site probably gets like a few hundred visitors each month.
There are a bunch of ways on how to make Adsense money, you just need to have an open mind and actually work on it. I just gave you three good ways on making Adsense money and two of them are somewhat automated. Now you can always subscribe to get the password to the $100/Day Adsense post and you can get a very easy way of making money with Adsense but you just have to actually work. But it’s not hard, just sometimes time consuming.
Anyways, if you have any additional ways on how to make Adsense money and you want to share it, feel free to add a comment! And if you have any questions, leave one and I’ll try my best to answer you.
I don’t know how many of you guys play poker, particularly with Full Tilt Online Poker but if you do, then there are plenty of ways of making money there. But I’m not here to tell you exactly how to, but rather why I like to play and where I finished in this big tournament I was in over this past weekend.
If anyone wants to join me for a game, I play at Full Tilt Poker and the main reasons why I like to play there is the fact that they have No Limit Cap Game Tables. For those of you that have no idea what that means, well, it’s basically a table where you can bet as much as you want until it hits the “cap”.
For instance, if you sit at a $0.50/$1.00 NL CAP table and you decide to go “all-in” the most you would be putting in is $30.00 max. So, you could sit at a table with $10,000 and go “all-in” and only put in $30.
This is a good and bad thing. For most poker players, they hate any cap games because they feel No Limit should be exactly that - when they sit down at a table with $10,000 and push all in, they’re putting up $10,000. That’s just part of the game.
The good thing is the fact that if the best starting hand (pocket aces) is dealt to you and you go all in and it happens to get cracked by 27 off suit (worst starting hand) then you’ll only lose the $30 and not $10,000.
Okay, well, I’ll stop boring you with that. Let’s bore you with my tournament results.
I actually wanted to get into a tournament that was $750,000 guaranteed with first place taking a little over $132k but last week I lost and didn’t finish in payouts so I took a break from that.
The one I played this past week was $200,000 guaranteed with first place taking in $32K. Unfortunately, I didn’t come in first place. Matter of fact, I didn’t come in second or third either… shoot, I didn’t even finish in the final table!
The tournament started with 9,773 total players which was crazy as hell. I actually played a satellite tournament with a buyin of $2 and finished first to get into this tournament. And when I played, I had some luck on some hands but for the most part, I played pretty tight. I just wanted to finish in payouts and once I did, I just was trying to move up on each payout range. And this is where I ended up…
I actually just finished short of the final table and eight hours later… I placed 14th overall. But I did better than I expected and finishing 14th out of 9,773 is pretty damn good. Unfortunately, I didn’t end up with $32k but only $1,200. That’s not too bad taking $2 and turning it into $1,200, huh?
It’s crazy because I spent 8 hours in this tournament but if you think about it, most people wouldn’t even make this in a week at a full-time job. So, my accomplish was pretty good.
Anyways, I just wanted to share a mini-accomplishment that took place online with you guys. And if anyone is interested in playing poker online with me for fun or for money, let me know and I’ll be there! Maybe we’ll teach each other a thing or two!
Hey, I like it when people hit me up to let me know what I write on here actually works for them. I mean, I already know it does since I use these methods myself but it’s always nice hearing other peoples’ success stories. And another reader left a comment telling me the mini success they had on their first day!
This time around, I didn’t get a message telling me they made $2,000+ in one day like a previous reader did but they did in fact make some money. And what makes it even better was the fact that it sounded like they tried it for the very first time and made $19 that day.
Now I know that doesn’t sound like much but nowadays it seems as though a lot of bloggers are struggling to make $100/month. And if you do the math, $19/day for one month equals $570! I can guarantee you a majority of people who try to make money online barely make that amount. I think even John Chow wrote some post regarding how a majority of bloggers struggle to make $100/month. Are you one of those?
Of course, my technique varies a lot each day and each month and it gives different results for everyone. Nothing is a guarantee but if you’re actually willing to work for the money instead of expecting things to come so easily then you should have no problem making more than $100/day.
I’m lazy myself but whenever I’m in need of some extra cash, I implement my method to get some money. It’s not exactly “quick” cash or anything because Google takes forever to send you a check but at least you can expect something in the mail.
If you have any success stories based on what you’ve learned or found here at DatMoney, please let me know. I would love to hear about it and possibly write about it.
And for everyone else, you should consider checking out my $100/Day from Adsense post because as you can see, people are trying it out for themselves and it’s showing some quick results!
