Hello All! I have been a lurker for a little while, but I decided to branch out and ask a questions. I have $90 saved, I would like to try something out. I am open to any ideas really, I don't have any major skills. I can't program or anything like that, but would rather learn about what people on here did with their first little bit of money online! All advice appreciated
Yes, I meant that I don't have any programming skills to start up a small website or something along the lines of that
Hmm... Well... I'd say you start out with some affiliate marketing maybe. And buy some advertising space. Either a solo ad or what have you. It'd help if you can write your own ad copy. So you're not using a generic one that everybody else is using. Just my opinion. Good luck
When I first got started many years ago, I invested the little money I had in my online marketing education. You don't need to know how to build a website to start making money but you do need to build a solid foundation FIRST so you can build whatever you which after that on concrete and not on sand.
Save your money and get a hooker and a 12 pack... J/k look around and read more until you learn something, if not you lil $90 will be gone faster then flies on you what...
Affiliate marketing is the way to go.. First buy only 1 domain and test things out.. after you know the basics you can go for more sites
download wordpress ...buy a domain and a hosting...pay $5 for some guy to setup all then write on UNIQUE things that attract people and then as traffic start flowing sign up for adsense and let money flow...This sounds really easy but its not Good Luck.
It depends what your interested in! What kind of website do u want to "Startup" lol Either learn to code or save money to rent a coder. Blogs are free or cheap...... its all relative...you need to pick a niche that YOU like. Spend time reading on DP......READ READ READ, ASK QUESTIONS!!!! Get EDUCATED. READ AGAIN. Don't do things "HALF ASS". DON'T TRUST PEOPLE. "Don't LOSE MONEY" (Warren BUFFET) ...... Build a TEAM....ALways write contracts...again don't trust ANYONE...make sure you sign contracts if your doing a big project or with anything business related!. Don't do something JUST for the MONEY...do something your passionate about! SOAK up LOTS of INFORMATION & TAKE ACTION...Again -> SAVE!!!! BTW - Ive lost A LOAD of money to Coders that SUCK and Rip OFF.
Buy a domain related with any niche you love to promote, create backlink through free & paid traffic as you have $90. After getting a level of traffic everyday sell this site at sitepoint for bigger cash out.
I would suggest first to start with a plan. Do you have a current business or would you like to build a new one? What is your passion? Personally, I would suggest using a little to purchase a book that can educate you and get you going. (Crush It by Gary Vaynerchuck is one of my favs) Then, if you decide to start a site use it for domain and hosting fees.
If you have writing skills you just need to spend like 15$ on webhosting and a domain, and write articles yourself that take you to a landing page. 50% content, 25% marketing, 25% opinion Otherwise, focus on SEO (you can also use articles for that of course)
I don't think $90 are a serious amount of money to really think about investing it. May be you should try focus before on how to make money.
