There are many ways to earn cash and make money online. Some of these are very simple in concept and easy to implement. Others are more complicated and take a great deal of learning. Some methods are relatively inexpensive to start while others can end up costing you thousands is you are not careful. This article will discuss a few of the inexpensive but very effective methods to earning income online.
1. Forum posting – this is a great method to get your name and your site’s name in front of people that share your interests. Join as many forums related to the service or product that you are selling. Make a few posts per day to each forum. Make sure your comments are useful and helpful to the other members. You will soon earn privileges that allow you to leave a live link to your website. Once this happens your readers can click on your link to go see your site. If they are interested they will likely purchase your product. You just made a sale! Be sure to read the rules of each forum you join. If are there strictly to sell your stuff you will likely get banned, quickly.
2. Article Marketing – this is one of the most common ways to promote your products. You simply write articles related to the topic or product you are marketing (in this case how to earn cash, make money online) and submit the articles to various article directories. Once they are published they can be found when someone searches your topic in the search engines (like Google). If they choose to read your article they will find a link to your web page (that you included in the article). When they click on it they will be directed to your site where they will be sold on your product. If they make a purchase you make money. Article marketing is great because it’s free and it works.
3. Affiliate Marketing – a great way to start your internet business. You simply sign up as an affiliate with someone that has already produced a product that you are interested in selling. It’s free to sign up. Then you simply market that product. You can use article marketing as described above. When someone clicks on the link in your article they are directed to your website or to the vendors website. Once they purchase you get a commission on the sale. YOu don’t have to keep an inventory, track sales, deal with customer service issues, etc. All you have to do is generate sales and collect the cash. It’s great!
4. Viral Marketing – this method uses free giveaway products to get your web sites name out to as many people as possible by encouraging others to do some work for you (if you want to call it work). Let’s say you have an eBook that you want to give away for free. The eBook is loaded with links to your web site. You send it to the people on your email list. You direct them and give them permission to send the eBook to everyone of their email lists (as long as no one changes the links in the ebook). They direct their list to send the eBook to others and so on. Soon your eBook with your links is in front of thousands of readers that may visit your site as a result. The more traffic to your site the more likely you will make sales.
