If you are
someone that is regular and curious about what is going on, on the internet like
me, then you must have found out that people make money on the internet. I am
not talking here about scammers, I
am talking here about people who
make real money. For those of you that do not know, there are people that are
going to ask you to buy a product online, the most common is a dog and do not
deliver the goods, this type of people are called scammers. I want to talk to
you today about people that will deliver you, your product and even give you an
online course to teach you what they have learnt.
Gone are
the days when internet surfing was fun, people loved to receive emails, infact
it was a prestigious thing at the time, people felt proud when they bought
something online. Then came this time when the internet world was exploited,
people started receiving emails of scams and even emails threatening their
lives. All that did not stop the internet from growing, from the times of
emails and fun surfing, the internet has grown tremendously, but people now are
very careful as to what they buy and the type of emails they receive. People
have even started protecting their email addresses with software some of which
I do not even know about.
With all
that said, I am just trying to drag you into the internet world. I want to open
your eyes so you can also tap from what has evolved in the internet world. The
most active age groups on the internet range from 10 - 25. They spend much time
on the internet searching on any thing that is interesting to them. Play games
for hours on the internet. Keep up with their favourite stars on the internet.
30 - 65 are boring parents who want to check every thing their child is doing
on the internet and protect them from explicit contents like pornography.
Stars,
companies have been known to run their whole activity on the internet. You can
come in here. Who is your favourite
star? Eminen, Beyonce... What brand of product do you like, Sony Play station,
Microsoft Corporation. Or maybe you are good at programming, why don't you
create a game, software and show the world what you are able to create. From here I expect you to start following
up. A million dollars is not money to get some burgers at McDonalds. We are
talking here about financial
independence. So you need to be able to keep up with each updates I am making.
You have
come up with your favourite stars, companies, game programming abilities. What
next? you need to study the internet world to find out what type of people are
you involved with. Are you involved with teenagers or adults. This is going to
help you to know how to get some money from the age group. We will cover that
later. Keep up with me as we try to go through this together.
The aim of
the internet world has been exploited. The internet world was made for people
to reach each other far and near. But now it is a home of pornographic
materials, scams and even demonic activities. People are tied of protecting
their children from online porn and from purchasing products that do not reach
them, people have even have demonic activities to solve as a result of surfing
the internet.
Get this
from me, these days before people start giving you their money on the interne,
they have to trust you. So no matter how good you have understood the stars you
love and found out who share this similar love with you, no matter how good you
are with video games, even if you are a ps3 game computer programmer, you will
need to gain some trust before people can start buying what you have to sell.
Now you
want to learn how to gather people right? let us try to cover that. You can
create a blog on a free site like blogger which is owned by google, create a page
on facebook, get a twitter account. This is what you are able to do with a
blog. You can write articles post it on the blog encourage people to read what
you have posted. If people are interested in what you have posted, then they
will either subscribe with their emails or share your content on social media
sites like facebook, twitter... On facebook you can post status updates, say you
are the first to learn about a latest game release, you can post it on facebook
and your fans can then learn from what you have posted. Same with twitter. Post
status updates and your followers can benefit from what you have found.
Now you
have known the internet, what is required of you in order to make real money on
the internet and not scam people. You have know where to get the trust of
people. Now what you what to know, how to make money from the different age
groups. If you are someone that is promoting something for teenagers, then you
do not have to place things that require them to buy anything, what you can do
with this age group is get them to get involved in form filling and link
clicking. There are companies offering jobs online known as cpa's where people
are required to fill forms and at the end you earn some money. You can also integrate
google adsense into your blog where individuals will be required to click on
links that show up on the ads and you earn money if they do this.
If you are
dealing with the buying age, then you can join a program on Amazon and
clickbank known as affiliate marketing, where you get a commission if a product
is bought through a special link you got either from Amazon or clickbank.
By now I
expect you to have already gotten what and where we are trying to go to,. Let
us use blogging as a case study. There are over 167 million blogs online.
People create blogs for different reasons, to share photos with friends, to
share life experience with the world, to share how to's, stories, assemble
content online. Gone are the days when blog was meant just for publishing
content online, now people make a living out of it.
That is
what I want us to be talking about today. How can to make a million dollar
empire from blogging. People most of the times if not all of the times use
search engines to search for what they are looking online. Google is the
biggest and most popular search engine on the web. In order to get google's
attention, you are going to find out free and even paid services telling you to
do keyword research and building backlinks. Trust me this process has the power
to discourage you from the blogging world.
So what if
I tell you there is a way to bypass keyword research and backlink building.
Facebook, twitter and best of all google+ owned by google itself has a huge
part to play when it comes to finding things on google. The part they play on
google is known as social signals.
This is what
you want to do, get as much social signals as possible. How do you do that?
look for topics that are hot on facebook, twitter, google+. Some of you are
very good when it comes to keeping up with your favourite star updates on
facebook and twitter, with google+ you will have to keep up with brands. Why
not create you own.
Google have
been known to pay a close attention on the number of shares and likes a post
gets on facebook, the number of retweets a post gets on twitter, the number of
google +1s and share a post gets on google+. So if your name comes up on a
topic that goes viral, you will gain some exposure which will eventually lead
to people visiting your blog or like your facebook page.
So you have
come up with a game, there are people that spend hours playing games on
facebook. I do not know the upload policies of games on facebook. But I do know
individuals are allowed to upload games on facebook. What if your game becomes
the next Farmville, that even people that came out with a Manuel where made millionaires.
Facebook
has almost 2 billion users, there are many ways to make thousand of friends on
facebook. Join groups of similar interest, like pages that share what you can
engage in, start your own group. Post regular, share news, inspirational and
encouragement quotes, share photos, try to be funny sometimes. Give your readers
some time to miss you. Don't overload them with content. This is similar with
twitter. With google+, people often share just photos explaining what they are
trying to transpire to the world. Take some time study what is it that you are
telling the world, look for pictures explaining your idea, share it on google+,
who knows maybe it goes viral, starting up an online career for you.
You do not
have to tell people about nuclear physics, you can know how to take care of a
school garden, tell people how you do that, you can know how to cook a
delicious meal, tell the world how you do that, or maybe you want to share your
success on a successful marriage life, the world what's to hear that. Do not be
afraid that people will not like what you have to share. A good search term is
searched at least 1000000 times on a monthly bases, there must be some people
that will find what you have to say interesting.
Once you
start getting people liking your facebook page, becoming friends with you on
facebook, following you on twitter, following you on google+, subscrbing to
your newsletter, these are the people you want to make happy, they will buy
your products, spread your content.
Make sure
you reply to their comments, ease their minds on their concerns. Attack people
that want to attack them for reading what you have to say. If you are successful,
some of them will like to ask you for help to start up their own blog, twitter
account or facebook page, give it to them and they will remember you when they
are grown and this is going to increase your audience dramatically. Give them
the opportunity to ask questions and make sure you answer each one of these
questions, They can even suggest what they will like reading from you, do your
best that you see they get this.
When you
just start do not be afraid to interview influencers in your industry. Some of
them are kind enough to reply to you. Make sure to keep it simple and not write
them as if they are some gurus. Write them with allot of respect addressing
their success. You can even come up with posts about them and inform them that
you have done that.
Do not flood
your blog with affiliate links when it has just 2 visitors a daily. People will
have to first of all get engage with what you have to say and then they will compensate
you by buying from the links you have to provide. Most internet buyers are
already aware of affiliate links and they see those that are just interested in
getting their money, they will bypass your affiliate link and move straight to
Amazon or clickbank. But if they see that your content is adding some value
into their lives and educating them, they will reward you by buying from what
you have to sell.
Why not
come up with your own e-book. On clickbank, you will be busy promoting peoples e-books
about weight loss, game manuals, how to's. You can come up with your own so that
people will be busy promoting what you have come up with. Get on the internet,
collect data, arrange it in a pdf file, post it on clickbank and watch people
start promoting this product for you. Or you know how to better take care of
kitchen utensils, write an e-book teaching people how to do that and they will
reward you by buying what you have to sell.
Nowadays
every one wants to blog, have you known something about blogging that no one
else is talking about, tell the world about it and make some money by doing
just that. Do not be scared by the number of blogs that are online, do not be
scared by the number of facebook page that are online, do not be scared by the
number of people that have eaten up twitter. Come up with your own unique idea,
start a blog and tell the world about what you have found, create a facebook
page and encourage and inspire people on a daily bases, build a twitter follow
up by sharing to them their favourite news about their stars.
If you do
all what I have said then you can make some money online why not a living. Be
consistent, give some time, you are not a robot that can do this everyday 24/7.
Once you start making money, do not stop until you reach a million dollars.
