Suggestions on earning money on the internet?

Discussion in 'General Business' started by Asgeco, Sep 9, 2012.

    Hi there!

    I would like to borrow your minds for a couple of minutes so you could give me some suggestions on how to make money online.

    Here is what I have:
    • $70 in my PayPal account (some leftovers)
    • Shared hosting for a couple of websites
    • Web developer skills (Drupal (I can do magic with this CMS), php html, css)

    Please don't offer to write articles because I'm not so good with my english so I could do that (or at least I don't think I'm).
    I know that I could make money by offering my services as a web developer at BST section but this time I'm just looking for some other ways to earn some money.

    Thanks for your replies.

    1.
    write technical howtos about current technical problems, the more current the problem the more daily traffic you get,
    after a few months or latest years, that traffic will be zero
    hence you need to create daily
    and be a true expert

    2.
    add a section about your country, province with up to date info and pictures for travelers
    promote - for FREE - local business inn a positive but neutral way without naming companies
    take a pocket camera or built in camera from a mobile - to publish fresh new content and piics

    3.
    add another section like wallpapers, greeting cards, etc

    4.
    offer help and advice for web site newbies, companies with new servers or sites
    be really GOOD in what do - average ppl we have already far to many

    To be honest I think your English is better than a lot of people who were born and grew up here. :p

    How about offering tips on how to customise Drupal and charge people to access the content? If it is good content people will happily pay.

    ^ I second Dean, how about offering your technical skills and taking it from there? I am sure there are quite a few webmasters out there looking for someone who can do magic with content management systems..

    You could also develop CMS plugins/extensions and sell them .... (my 2cents)

    Thanks a lot for your advices.
    To be honest I newer thought about offering tips on how to customise Drupal and even charging for it. I think I will try it.
    Talking about Drupal modules (plugins/extensions) there are a lot of them so here would be better to offer a service for module creation.

    Thanks again for the advices.

    There are two ways of making money on the web:

    1) Sell (either products or your services)

    2) Direct people to places where stuff is sold

    I'd recommend you stick with no 1 and make it a product. It's just more profitable (because you can sell again and again). Maybe you can develop some Drupal addons and sell those. Look in the BST and see what features people are demanding. Meet those needs and you'll do fine.

    With that amount of money you could launch your own website and promote your web developer skills.
    You will also have some money left to hire others to write some articles/get backlinks or any other tactics you'd think of. If I were you, I would really try promoting and selling my skills!

    I think looking at affiliate marketing with paid traffic could be the answer here.
    Starting with this amount of money, I would consider buying an ebook you find relevant to what you plan to do and then invest in whatever it taught you.

    This is how I started, but before doing paid traffic, split-test: use very little amount of money on a lot of ads. That way you can see which ads are doing good and which aren't.

    Affiliate marketing has big money-making potential! It's not extremely difficult to learn, and with your development background you could easily put together a nice affiliate website to get started. Then the key is -- marketing! This is probably where you'll need to develop some skills (no matter what you do online.) Lots of options: SEO, PPC, social media, offline, etc.

    I've always done the best promoting health or financial-related products and services (see my sig). These seem to be in the most demand and have the highest payouts. It's competitive, but that's because there's lots of potential ;)

    Well just make a website and monetize it that's one way.

    You could do domain flipping or website flipping.

    Or you could do fiverr if you have skillz

    The best idea i would suggest you is go with affiliate marketing. Create a website which can get you free content from users. A place where users will like to visit frequently.

    Step 1: Go to clickbank, cj.com

    sign up, select a product and work on it with full dedication.

    Create an informative website which can describe or help people. Ad affiliate banners all around the site and in few days sales will start coming in ;)

    It sounds like you have some skills here.. So if you could provide a simple service to others maybe on a website like fiverr.com you could make a pretty healthy monthly income.
