    How can I make $20 a day. What are the best ways to do so? Affiliate marketing, adsense, advertising?

    If you make $20 a day, how are you doing so?

    Thank you for your time.

    Whatever you start you will not make instantly $20 every day..you have to build it up to make $20 consistenly and aim for more like $100 a day.. that is the way of serious money coming in..

    If you are realy new how to start than I suggest you join a membership site where you learn by yourself ..I know a membership site..if you want to know than let me know...

    Thanks

    We know all that...we know its possible, we know its hardwork, what you did not do is
    answer the question that the op had asked "how too" he did not ask if it was possible....
    he did not ask is it possible to earn $20/day, he asked how can I earn $20/day...

    Most of us will say to start a website, add usefull content to it and start displaying ads and selling products. That should give you a start -- ofcourse it isn't all that easy and it takes time, but it's worth the efforts ;)

    sure..depends on what you want to do..do you have a skill? Do you have a product you can create yourself? if not, then you will
    have to find you a product on clickbank...something that converts pretty good. buy a domain that would relate to that product,
    and build a good website (hire someone that is experenced with landing/squeeze pages, and can do good copywrite) then start
    your life long promotion efforts. Do not go out and get greedy and try to start 5 domains...if you can not reach $100/day on
    one domain, then it is not likely for you to make that much with the other 4...it takes a long time to start making money like
    the above post has suggested, most people give up as they are too lazy to do what needs to be done for success. You have to
    remember, you have to compete with people selling the same product from people all over the world. Promote, Promote, Promote.
    How long it takes is up to you..did you create good content for the product you are selling? It can take 1,2 even 3 years. Everyones
    first mistake is thinking they are going to make fast bucks overnight, that is never going to happen; You have to work for it!

    most people will say they want the money; Few people are willing to work for it once they find out they have to get off their a$$....

    promote, promote, promote....add new content, promore some more, add some more new content, etc...then repeat....

    Thank you for the great information. I registered with clickbank some time ago, however quickly became overwhelmed with all of the products offered there to promote. I did not want to promote a product that I have not used, and do not have the money to try product after product to finally find one that works.

    At first I thought about making a wallpaper website, as I love to design websites, however quickly realized that there are so many, and not really a big money maker, as adsense would most likely be the main source of income.

    I have a fairly large knowledge of the health/fitness/nutrition niche, and am very interested in it, so i feel like that would be a good way to go, as I would not get bored of it. Also that gives the opportunity for more than just adsense, as I can promote products from clickbank and other affiliate programs as well.

    I think I just need to finally jump in and do it. I have spent about 5 months reading and researching and changing my mind about what I want to do. I guess I just need to find out how to jump in. Getting a domain name is probably a good start haha. Then I guess I just need to start adding content huh. At what point should I add an affiliate product to promote? Should that happen right away, or should I wait until i have an audience and some good content, so that they dont feel like I am just trying to sell them stuff?

    Again thank you for your time and information. It is greatly appreciated.

    Also, is a consistent $20/day or $100/day very plausible? It seems like everywhere I read, people are struggling to make more than a dollar a day. I feel like there are very few people I have read about that actually succeed in making that amount of money consistently every day.

    health/fitness/nutrition niche: and I am sure this is very saturated also, but that does not mean you can not do well.
    You just have to do better then the next guy, and you must be willing to work harder then the last guy. Do your research before you jump in.
    and once you jump in, do not start changing your mind...once you put all this time into this then start changing your
    mind, then you probably are not going to make it. If you are going to go with health, then setup a nice blog, this way
    you can add content very easily, and you can also add useful articles, etc...now you need to focus more on what
    you want to sell...health related drugs, exercise stuff, etc...do not try to sell everything either....

    No matter what you are doing. Just imagine there are 1000's of people already doing it, and some may have been doing it
    for years, so they already have years experience over you already, but keep working hard...

    I have setup a form myself, and the forum has just recently hit the 2000 backlink mark, is it making money, no, I am in
    a tough market, and it maybe years before the forum does anything, but I keep promoting anyway, and people will come,
    and so you have to do the same thing also, keep promoting, keep adding new content, and you will keep getting backlinks also.

    Ok sounds good. Would you recommend going with a clickbank product, or finding another affiliate program to use? One with physical products?

    CB mostly sells digi products = may equal low prices

    CJ mostly sells tangible products = can be somewhat high prices

    This is where your research begins...

    I would not settle for anything less then 60% commission.

    some may even use adwords to drive instant traffic, and that costs
    money, and you may not get much if you settle for like 10% comm.

    remember, the more your product costs - the harder it will be to sell.
    You may have to work 3-5 times as much just to sell it, but may
    end up with a better commission. This is stuff you have to decide.

    So if you promoted ebooks for $1 so your commision would be $0.60

    or promote exercise equip for $1000 and you may get 10% comm = $100
    (comm may be less, not sure, but it would surely take longer to sell this item)

    Unfor there are no easy answers. You just have to do some heavy research on what you are selling, making
    sure it sells, and has a high conversion rate. Personally, I would sell something between $50-$100
    you do not want to go to cheap, and hardly make anything, nor do you want to pick something so high
    that you will only make a sale like every 3 months, so you have to find your middle...it can also depend
    on your traffic, so if you have the traffic like warror then you can sell more expensive items, but if
    have my traffic, then you should not sell more then $1.00 hahah...there are factors to consider...

    My idea is to have one page for nutrition, one for exercise, one for motivation (quotes images etc), and one for self help (more sleep, time management, blah blah blah)

    By doing this i feel like i can have more of an audience, as well as possibly promote more products. Maybe one product per page. Making that 4 products on the site.

    what do you think about that?

    thats not really true...internet is always growing, and there are always people looking for websites with good design.
    it also depends on how good you design...is your work good enough just to get by? Or can you rockstar design?
    meaning your work is high quality, and shines like a rock star? If you are good at designing, then design some
    free templates so you can get easy backlinks, then design paid work, then go into custom work, custom work
    will always get you the most, and just paid templates may get you $10+ depending on how good your work is....
    and of course once you get all this setup, then the hard work starts of driving traffic, promote, promote, promote.
    If I had this skill, I would certainly do this before I do any type of affiliate work...this way you keep the profits...

    It is difficult just to promote one product and succeed. Having multiple products means you have to promote 5 times more then you
    would have if you just had 1 product, but this can also be cross promotion, what if someone did not like what they found when
    they come in, but find another product they like...by offering more, you have to promote more.

    Use your own domain. using blogger only tells people you are not that serious or you can not afford your own domain.

    Ya that's what I was thinking. Since all the pages correlate somewhat, a visitor might like one of then, as they are interested in the subject if they are there in the first place. It would be more promoting though you are right. Do you think that is a decent idea though?
