Now, I've had websites since 2009 now, so quite a few years, and I've made money off all my websites, and I've done it by following a few simple steps. And I want to share them all with you in this video.

Also, at the end of this video, there is a bonus down in the description. You could click a link. I've got a $97 course. You can get absolutely free, so check that out. But let's get into ways that you can make money on your website. Now, I've been doing this for years, and I just read an article on this, and somebody said that with a little work and a lot of luck, you can make some money on your website. And it's just the opposite. It's just the opposite, okay? You don't really need much luck, but you do need a lot of work. If you put a lot of work into it, you're probably going to be very successful. That's the killer of most people. They quit too soon. They give up too easy, and they don't just continue on. So I'm going to recommend, number one, when you start your website, don't quit. Keep going. Keep learning. Very, very important. But let's get through all these steps of things that you can do. Now, the first thing you can do is you can have an affiliate type website. Maybe you want to do reviews on products. Maybe it's kitchen gadgets, okay? If you do reviews on kitchen gadgets, maybe it's blenders, and you're going to do a review on the top 10 blenders, under each one of those blenders, you're going to have a link that's going to be an affiliate link so that when somebody clicks on it and buys that particular product, you actually get a commission. Now, the easiest way to do this is select a bunch of products on Amazon and just give reviews of them, okay? And if you do that, when people click on your products and they go to Amazon, they're going to buy that item or not buy that item, but anything they buy within about 48 hours, you're going to get a commission on, which is pretty cool. All you got to do is start a website with reviews and put affiliate links in it. You can also put affiliate links for courses or cooking or whatever you want to put affiliate links for. But you can put those on your site when people click, you get paid. Now, if you want to do products, I would recommend you go to something like Share a Sale or Click Bank, something along those lines, and there's a lot of products there, digital products, physical products that you can actually put on your website and they're already paying affiliate commission. So you don't have to look for them and that's something outside of Amazon. Amazon is going to pay you a very small commission. Some of the products on Click Bank will pay up to 90% of the purchase price because a lot of them are digital products. Number two is pay per click. What do I mean by that? You can use something like Google AdSense Advertising. Maybe you're writing a blog on camping and off to the right, you allow Google to run ads there through AdSense. When people click on these particular ads, you actually get a commission. It's pay per click. Now, all you have to do is apply for AdSense. You can Google that, you know, and everybody knows they use Google, right? Google AdSense and fill out the form and submit it and you'll probably be approved and you can start running ads on your site. Number three, sell AdSpace yourself. Why not do that? Why not allocate certain areas to your website where people can buy banners and put them up on your website? A lot of people will charge hundreds or thousands of dollars for somebody to put a banner on their website and they're usually full because there is limited ad space out there now. And it's the simplest way for a business to make some money is to actually put a banner on somebody else's website that already has traffic that's related to their particular product and they can sell their product through AdSpace on your site. Now you can go to sites like Buy, Sell, Ads and actually list your site there and let people know what you charge for your banners on your website and you're exposed to tons of people without you having to contact any businesses at all. Number four, create and sell your own digital products. What's a digital product? A digital product could be something like an e-book, it could be a downloadable PDF, it could be a course that you did, a series of videos, it could be PowerPoint presentations, but they're all digital and what I mean by that, it resides online and you're going to give somebody access to that. Now I like to use Cartra for that. I have courses that I've done on Facebook ads, on Shopify, on many different subjects, dropshipping and I have all of those courses on Cartra. Now down below in the description you're going to see a link for Cartra. You want to click it and you want to watch the video that's there, it doesn't cost you anything, you don't have to have a credit card, but click and watch the video and it will show you everything that Cartra does. You're going to need a software like this anyhow if you sell online because you're going to want to compile a list of people, you're going to want to email them, you're going to want to have sales pages, you're going to want to have your products for sale, but having digital products are awesome. I like it because you know on a daily, monthly basis I get payments, I just get payments. I'm not doing any extra work for that, I'm sure I had to do the course or I had to do the e-book or whatever, but once it's done it's done and it's something that lives on for a long time and you can do it on subjects that don't really require updating like maybe it's a camping one or maybe it's fishing or recipes or something like that. You really have to be updated. Now a lot of my stuff is technical, so over time I do have to update some of those courses. However, digital products are awesome and keep in mind you're making 100% of that money outside of your credit card fees and all that. Whatever somebody pays for that course, you get all that money, less any fees that you have to pay through the credit card company, so it's extremely profitable. It could be like 95, 98, 99% profitable to sell a product like that. Number five, accept donations. Some people just want to support your work, accept donations from people. You can have a PayPal donation thing on there, you can use Patreon, there's all kinds of donations type software that you can use and put on your site. If people like what you're doing, if they like your content, your videos, your blogs or whatever, let them support your site and let them know that they can do it for a dollar, five dollars, ten dollars. Now that doesn't sound like a lot, somebody giving you five dollars or ten dollars, but what if you had a thousand people giving you five dollars or what if you had 10,000 people giving you five dollars? All of a sudden it adds up real fast, they get great content and you're supported on your site. Number six, sell sponsored posts. What's a sponsored post? Well, a sponsored post could be a particular product. Let's say you're in the recipe area and you like cooking and all that and somebody has a chopper or whatever the heck the thing is, whatever their gadget is and you actually do a post on that product and you talk about that product and how much you like that product. Now, don't do this if you don't like the product. Don't do this if you haven't used the product. But if you really like a product and you use a product, you could probably write a pretty good blog on that. Now what you do is you offer that company, you know, a blog, say I'll write a blog on your product, it's going to be 800 words or a thousand words or I'll do a video on it and I'll talk about it. And if you pay me 500 bucks, I'll do it on my site for you. And you have to let people know it's a sponsored post that's super, super important. You don't want to do a post like that, the sponsor that you're making money. You don't tell anybody. But there's a lot of companies that would love to have you do a review or talk about their product on your site. Do sponsored posts. Number seven, build an email list. Super important, super important. Now, I remember when websites first started out and they would have a little opt-in box and it says join our email list. Now, people actually did it. They were like, oh my gosh, I'm going to get an email. I'm all excited. Nowadays, people are not excited to get an email. The thing we hate is waking up in the morning and seeing hundreds or thousands of emails. That's not what we want. So to build your list, you're going to have to give value. If we go back to that cooking and recipe example, maybe you've got some great recipes. You've got your 10 best recipes for biscuits or you've got eight recipes for the best barbecue ribs or whatever it is. And if they enter their email, you will actually send them that particular downloadable PDF, digital file, whatever you want to call it. And you start to build your list. Now, what's the importance of this list? Well, the importance of this list is if you've got 100,000 people that opted in for barbecuing stuff and you decided you were to sell barbecue stuff, right, through affiliate links or the actual products, you can start emailing these people and selling them these products because you already know that they have this interest and they already know you and they like you and they trust you. So guess what? They end up buying those products. Number nine, set up an e-commerce site. Now, probably one of the most popular platforms now is Shopify. I will put a link below so you can get a Shopify account, free account to start off, click the link down there. But selling products online has never been easier than now. We've gone through this pandemic thing. Actually, we're still in it at the time of this video. It's getting worse and worse and worse. But the point is people are accustomed to buying online. I know when I first started off and I was selling e-commerce products, people would call on the phone and they would say, well, I don't want to put my credit card online, which was the funniest thing because then we logged into our computer and put their credit card in there. That's what you had to do. That's how you process the credit card. It goes online. People are now aware of that. They understand that it's a lot safer to put their card in online. Now I've had my card stolen. My wife's had her card stolen. But the point is all you do is call the bank and you say, hey, these aren't my charges. You know, I need them taken off my bill. And they almost always do. I don't know of anybody who hasn't had that. And they just give you another card. So people aren't as afraid of that. They're used to being at home now ordering stuff online. Now, the concern that I hear is people say, well, I don't want to buy a bunch of inventory and I can't sell it. You don't have to. Matter of fact, I have a course on that. If you look below, there's a free course down there. You can click on it, grab the course, and we actually show you how you can sell products online and you don't even have to buy. As a matter of fact, you can offer them for sale before you bought them and sell them to people and collect the money and then pay for the product and have it shipped out to them. It's called drop shipping. We also do that with my survival food company. We are a drop shipper for many websites on the internet who buy our products. So that's another great way you can make money online. And unfortunately, that's our last way to make money online. Not that there aren't more, not that I won't do another video, but that's the last one for this video. I hope you enjoyed the video.
