How To Plan Your Week Making Money At Home-6 Days To Six Figures

by: Jeff Schuman

Copyright 2004 Jeff Schuman

Is it really possible to earn a 6 figure income on the internet? The answer to that is yes, but not everyone will do it! WHY?

The biggest lie told everyday on the internet is you can make money at home doing nothing.

"Join my program and I will build your downline for you. I do all of the work. This is so easy anyone can do it in their underwear. Buy my book and you will be successful."And on and on.... We have all fallen for this at one time or another.

My book shelf is full of books I have bought online and never finsished reading. Who has ime to read all of this stuff and still actually work at making money?

Here are the only 2 books you need to make money on the internet.

1. "The Insiders Secrets To Marketing Your Business On The
Internet" By Corey Rudl.
http://www.team-schuman.com/marketingtips

This is in my opinion the bible for making money online. While it carries an expensive price tag if you never bought another book these 1,000+ pages would be all you ever need to earn how to make money online. I use it everyday.

2. "Super Affiliate Handbook" by Rosalind Gardner
http://www.team-schuman.com/superaffiliate

Without a doubt the best book ever written on making money at home with affiliate programs. Rosalind Gardner explains in detail how she makes over $400,000 dollars a year selling other people's stuff. I read this 3 times on vacation in Mexico and still refer back to it over and over again.

Learning to earn is a big part of the make money at home formula. None of us have the skill level when we first get started making money online. Either one of these 2 books, (or both), will be all you ever need to get started and move forward making money online.

If you have money to spend on promotion you are going to want to do pay-per-click advertising and Google AdWords campaigns eventually. This is a very targeted way to build your business, but should not be attempted by a newbie. Once you have the basics listed below you can branch out from there.

But to get started right now let's summarize what is the best way to set up your week doing things that will actually move your online business forward on limited budget, and have you making more money than you spend.

Here is a simple outline for budgeting your time every week. Try to spend 2-3 hours or more everyday building your business. If you don't have that much time everyday then make it up on days when you do have it. Expect to spend 15-20 hours or more every week working on your business. The more properly spent effort you put in the more money you will make.

Here's a good way to schedule your week.

Wednesday

Exchange links with possible partners. This is hard to do just one day a week. You will find yourself spending a few minutes here and there when you have time. Because exchanging links is so tedious that is actually a better way to do it then to sit down and spend several hours at a time.

Here are 3 excellent link directories to get quality link partners.

1. http://www.linkmarket.net/
2. http://www.infowizards.com/
3. http://value-exchange.sitesell.com/

Larry with Linking101.com has an great website to help you learn the basics of linking.

Thursday

Post in at least 5 forums. To start with forums are a great place to ask questions and learn how to make money at home for free. The nice thing is that you can add a free short classified ad about your product along with the link to your website at the end of your post. This is a great non-threatening way to increase your traffic as well as one way links back to your website.

Forums are also a great place to get ideas for your weekly article. Look at the type of questions people are asking. Do some research and formulate an article around the answer to these commonly asked questions.

You can find hundreds of forums here:

Friday

Add fresh content to your site. Maybe a new article or another sales or training page. Over a period of time you will have a website with hundreds of pages and you will see it on page one of the search engines for your most popular keywords and keyword phrases.

RSS feeds are all of the rage right now. I have found a simple way to add fresh content by adding a few lines of javascript to a page. Here are a couple of places to get fresh content scripts.

Saturday

Catch up day. Return emails, research a new product or program to sell. Plan your next week.

Sunday

Take the day off.

This article should get rid of any notion you may have that you will get something for nothing when it comes to making money online. It is hard work. It takes patience. You have to have a long range view of what your goals are. Making money from the comfort of your own home is not going to happen overnight.

But the good news is if you will do the things above over time you will see your income growing and eventually you will be making more money at home than you do at your full time job.

How To Make Money Online Without A Website
by: Melanie Mendelson

You don't need to have a website to make money on the Internet. Here is a proven strategy to make money online without a website:

Step 1: Find Affiliate Product

Find a product to promote where you make good commission on each sale. Generally, you will get the biggest commissions on digital products. Digital products are defined as something that is downloaded directly to a customer's computer after purchasing, like electronic books or software.

Since there is no extra cost per unit, no inventory and no shipping, the commissions are much greater than on regular "physical" goods. The most common commission on digital products is 50%. The best place to find such products is Clickbank.com.

Sign up as a reseller (also called affiliate) for a product that looks the most appealing to you. After you sign up, you will get a unique affiliate link where you need to send people to purchase the product.

Your affiliate link will have a special code that will tell the product owner that it's you who referred the customer. The affiliate link code will allow your commissions to be tracked correctly and assigned to you.

Step 2: Get Domain Name

Get a domain name to redirect to your affiliate link. A domain name is a .COM name (like yourproduct.com). You can get it for under $9 at GoDaddy.com. GoDaddy.com will allow you to redirect your domain name to your affiliate link at no extra cost.

So when someone types in your .COM domain in their browser, it will go to your affiliate link. The visitor will see the website with the product you promote, and the commissions will be tracked correctly.

The reason why you need a domain name is that it's memorable and it makes you look more trustworthy. Affiliate links tend to be too long and arouse suspicion. For example, most people would rather click on the link bestwidgets.com as opposed to abcwidgets.com?reseller=john

A domain name will make your affiliate link look like it's your own website. So basically, you will have a product to promote and a website to send people to and get commissions - without really having your own website.

Step 3: Drive Traffic

In order to make sales, you need to get visitors to your domain name (which will forward them to the website of the product that you resell). You can pay for advertising and hope that your profit will be greater than advertising cost, or you can use free ways to generate traffic.

The most effective way to get free targeted visitors to your domain name is by writing and submitting articles. You can write short articles on the topic related to the product that you promote. At the end of the article, you include your author bio and your domain name link.

You will then submit your articles to various websites, and allow them to publish your articles as long as your link is included. Your articles will get published in many places on the Internet, and will be advertising your affiliate link at no cost to you whatsoever. People will read your articles, like what you have to say and click on your domain name link ready to buy.

Once you start getting regular sales from your articles, you can go back to step 1 and find another product to promote using this strategy. After a while, you will build up a nice source of Internet income - without even having a website.
