How to Make Money from Websites

When we pose the question how to make money from websites, we tend to think of websites as a marketing channel where we market our wares, show off our successes, sell affiliate products or just write about our interests and monetize with ad placements.

A Not So Small Home Business Idea…

What if you could develop an idea to the point of success and then boil it down to a process that can be replicated endlessly? You could either repeat the process or you could package it and sell it to others. This is how some of the great affiliate marketers have made their biggest successes.

Being an affiliate marketer is a bit like that, you see once you learn how to market a product you can take what you have learned and repeat it with some other product. Most affiliates have several different campaigns in motion at once, particularly those who use ppc marketing.

Just being in that position means you learn things about various industries and markets as well as improving your affiliate marketing skills. So what if you were to take all that info, package it up and sell it? You could do this as an online service like an ebook or course or as a more personally delivered service to local businesses.

The ebook or online course could be sold by you (and your own affiliates if you wish) while your experience could be marketed to other businesses. There must be dozens of small businesses nearby that could use the knowledge you have gained in online marketing. From those who need a simple website to those who need a whole marketing campaign!

There are several varieties but the common thread is the continuation of bringing customers into the system as marketers to form a downline from top to bottom. The person introducing the new folk into the system gets a commission on their sales and on the sales of anyone they also introduce into the system.  Sometimes this can go on for several levels.

The difficulty comes when these systems go too close to the illegal pyramid schemes. Read More…
