How To Make Money On the Internet by Clive Jenkins
Since the introduction of the internet into mainstream usage it has been used as a tool to help its users make money. By virtue its international reach, the net has connected millions of users across the world, opening up to the possibility of a truly global marketplace. So why are you still stuck behind the desk, working for the man when you can easily make money on the internet?
The beauty of the internet is that it allows free trade with essentially low or no start up costs. All you need is a website, and you're away! Having said that, its a competitive arena, with billions of websites vying for the customer, so you have to have a bit of brains to be able to succeed and make money on the internet.
One of the major areas of commercial growth in recent times has been internet marketing. Internet marketing is an all encompassing term, taking care of public relations, online advertising, and the art of tailoring your website to promote conversion rates. It is now possible, more than ever before, to run your business solely online, and earn your living via the internet.
So how can I do it, I hear you ask? Well there are an infinite number of ways in which you can make money on the internet, so firstly you need to think of an idea. Once you've come with an idea, whether it's to retail online or provide a service related to your skill set, the next step is to design a website. You'll need a domain name like www.yourbusiness.com, and you'll also need somewhere to put that domain (known as hosting). Think of it like setting up a shop - the website is the physical building, the domain name is the address, and the hosting is the land the shop is built on. Without each of the three elements, you can't have a shop, or a website! To design the website you can either go with an agency (if you've got the money available) or go it alone. Either way, you need to make sure your site is targeted to your customer.
So, OK. You've set up the website - what next? Now it's time to market your site. It's no good having a website if no-one knows about it. Don't think people will come to you either - you've got to get out there a grab them. There are so many different types of marketing available, so it's important to find a blend that is both within your budget and effective. Now you're really on your way to make money on the internet!
It's now just a case of sitting back and watching the visitors and the sales come in. Yeah right! You've got to keep on top of your marketing; why not consider search engine optimization to boost your rankings in Google and Yahoo? There are loads of options open to you, and with a bit of time and effort, you can really make money on the internet, and kiss the boss goodbye!
