    I have $100 to spend and I would like to use it to make some money. I was thinking about starting a website selling instagram followers and then promote it with AdWords since I am not experienced it seo. With $70 after hosting and domain could I get enough traffic to my site? What else could I do with the $100?

    You can try ezine solo ads for your investment. I think more targeted also high open rate to bring some sales.

    Unfortunately IMO $70 isn't enough to test any paid traffic sources, you'd probably be better off investigating that money to help you with setting up a longer term business around free traffic

    I'm not very experienced in seo so should I use that money to pay someone to do a little so to get me off the ground?

    No I wouldn't pay for SEO service. You can learn about SEO in a day. Basics.
    Crawler friendly webpage, meta data, plugins for Wordpress all for free but you have to do your homework.
    For traffic maybe Youtube? Post a video per day, submission to blog, article directory.
    It's a lot of "manual" labor but it can be done.

    With $100, you can invest your money into Bitcoins and earn it back within a week.

    If it were my only $100 to invest, I would certainly not recommend putting it into bitcoin, no matter the price. Too many miners/transaction processors fail...taking the bitcoins with them and many are stolen, as well. It is a real "wild west" right now in the bitcoin arena and only for the most speculative investments, in my opinion.

    As far as my media buying is concerned, I don't think that $100 is enough to test things out especially with Adwords - it is more complex than just putting up your ads and starting to earn money.

    I would suggest you invest in your website and get some free traffic for now.

    Do you really thinks that $100 is quite good amount to invest. I don't think that you can achieve more traffic . You will have to invest more.

    A lot. Your question reminded me of a software company that asked me to become a partner in their firm. I joined on a part-time basis so that I could do some market testing, early sales, etc. After about six months of this type of activity, the president came to me and said that they were about to take on considerable debt financing and I would need to quickly develop a plan and cost estimate to achieve revenues of $1MM at the end of the first year. I replied that based on the testing that I had done, I was confident that I could achieve $1MM in twelve months and it would only cost about $5MM to do so!

    Needless to say, that relationship did not last much longer. The company went out of business about a year later. My point is that if you are relying on hitting a certain number in a certain timeframe, plan to spend a lot to do it.

    Here's what I'd do:

    - Choose a Click Bank product
    - Create a Micro Niche Site
    - Buy a Premium Theme from Theme Forest
    - Use Extra Money for SEO Fiver Gigs to Help Rank
    - Drive Quick Traffic With YT, Forums, & Social Networks

    Don't waste your money with paid advertising (Adwords, POF, etc). You need more than $100 to find good campaigns, unless you're very experienced.

    If I only had $100 to invest-

    I would find a coupon for a year of good hosting you could probably find one for $60 a year. With the rest buy a couple of domains (many hosting companies will give you one free domain)

    You can download Wordpress for free and start making websites. If you don't know how start studying and learning. If you don't make the $100 back you will have invested it into learning how to build, market and sell websites.

    one can't say the adjact figure how much you need to invest. Getting traffic and getting profit are two different things. May be you can get high traffic but if people don't stay on your website or content and package is not attractive then you won't get business. So deal can be done based on traffic or profit then there would be different price for both.

    I think this is best answer. You get "free" for next 12 months and have some time working and learning on websites.

    My opinon, list building would be the certain and sustainable way to make money. HOwever, with $100, you first should get involved in Product Launch (Affiliate). Purpose: earn more bucks and learn basic knowlege of SEO. Then, go with List building.
    IF you take interest and wanna learn more, pm me.
    good luck!
