The Marketplace is changing.
Fewer and fewer people run to the local Department Store when they want to make a purchase; With the rise of Online Marketing, these people now have the option of going to Amazon, or eBay and with a few clicks of their mouse they have what they want headed to their front door.
The selection of Merchandise online is nearly limitless, so why not make money at home by promoting some of these products?
We've been over Making A Website now let's discuss how to monetize one.
The first thing you're going to want to do is find a Niche. For the purpose of this post, let's suppose an entrepreneur is really interested in playing guitar. He knows a thing or two about guitars, guitarists, guitar parts; a niche site about guitars would be a good choice for him.
Making a site about 'Guitars' in general wouldn't be the best choice, because that niche is too competitive. He'd be competing against a ton of well established sites that are on the first page of Google Search Results and are there to stay.
Instead, a more specific Niche like Guitar Chords, or Guitar Restoration would be a better fit. Fewer people type these terms into Google, which means his site will have an easier time ranking (showing up in the first page of search results). More on ranking in Google in another post.
The next step is to find an affiliate program; and I'd recommend ShareASale. It's totally free to sign up, and with a few clicks you can get affiliate links and earn Commissions on anything you sell.
Once your site is approved, you'll now have access to Affiliate Home, where can find links to embed into your Site.
So our hypothetical guitarist is now a ShareASale Affiliate, now he can create content. If he writes an article on the top 10 best guitarists of all time, he can put links to these guitarist's albums, and each time a person clicks on his link and buys an album, he gets a commission.
As you can imagine, the better the content, the more interested people will become. They'll want to share it with their friends, send it to their co-workers etc. All of these people could potentially earn you money.
Our guitarist could then write an article on the 10 best guitars on the market, and partner with a guitar merchant on ShareASale. He can now link to the guitars, and earn commissions when they sell. Again, if the quality of the content is high, it will generate interest and ultimately, sales.
It almost sounds too good to be true; but it isn't. So get started today and start making money online.
