    Hi,
    I am new here, and my friend mentioned to me that he was making cash by making websites and then advertising for like a tenner. I don't understand, how do you guys make so much cash? How do you get so much traffic? How does this money-making system work? I am intrigued.

    Thanks.

    Working hard is the answer.

    Developing a well-designed site requires hard work, keep it running with fresh quality content or a strategy to offer specific services and good takes another considerable amount of both time and work, plus designing an advertisement plan that works different for everyone contributes with traffic and earning.

    Such plan may consist in pay-per-click advertising, classified adds, link building and many other promotional ways alone or combined ;)

    And remember that the money wont come over one night. As Trusted Writer said, you have to work hard if your new to this you'll probalby have to work for some weeks/month to get your first check. But after that it can only get better :)

    Google Adsense is probably the most used program. And you get traffic from all kind of places. Forums like this one. Blogs. Search Enginges and so on.

    As said in previous posts, you must work hard, very hard. I spend hours working on my websites that haven't started to make any money yet, but I know that all my hard work will one day pay off.

    Cash? First off some of the claims are hype. Second, the key to any successful business is establishing upfront what people want then giving it to them.

    Traffic? Unless you're extremely lucky or have a seriously controversial site, your traffic will come over time. Websites that are "flipped" (created and sold for a profit) don't necessarily have that much traffic if any at all UNLESS the domain name has a good history of traffic or some other factor is involved.

    Those are a few pointers for you taken from my personal domain-flipping experience and discussions with people who know way more than I do about literally anything you could think of!

    man imma honestly tell you this **** is hard work. thats how i got into it from a friend. you really have to put in some work and invest a lil cash into it. In 2 months i made 20 dollars lol thats cause i gave up on my blog. Im working a forum now which isnt easier. when you want to give up and know there is a pot of gold at the end.
