What really makes money on the internet?

People ask me what the best program to use is. I tell them that it depends.

If you're on internet total newbie, and are overwhelmed by websites, search engines, affiliate links, etc. then you may want to start with EBay or Survey Taking.

Really - probably most people are using The Bay of E for income growth. I, personally, think there are easier ways - but I know a wee bit about the internet. This is not bragging. This is not - I'm better than you.

It's just that I've been online for awhile, can put up a website, and understand something about traffic generation. With affiliate marketing, you don't need an inventory, you don't need to handle sales or customers... you just drive sales leads to the actual seller, and they CLOSE THE SALE. If you hook up with a great closer, you're in!

Now survey taking sounds like a scam, but people - usually women, sometimes men - who work at it - get hooked in to survey companys and actually supplement their income this way. You can mess around and look for free information on survey taking, or you can save yourself some time and invest about $30.00 in a do it yourself kit. The most popular guide to survey taking is the Survey Income System.

You can click here to Look at the Survey Income System - It also has info on mystery shopping, making money from ads on your car, and more tips like that. I know a lady who made $1500 one summer mystery shopping, and she said she had a blast. Now $1500 isn't a full time income, but it supplemented her schooling, plus she had kids and a husband - so that's kind of cool. I assume to make a full time income, you have to work at this stuff like a job. I know - it always comes down to that!

As for affiliate marketing, let me say this. I am still looking for a good beginner guide. My guide, five years back, was just to jump in, land on my butt, and then try again.

This is my pearl of wisdom: Giving away somethig free is the easiest! For instance, now I have the most success with Free Information. The surfer has to give contact information for the free information. Basically this contact info is sold as a LEAD to a company that will try to approach them to make the sale. Closing, and all that is left to the other company. All I have to do is SELL the surfer on the idea of giving me an email address and some other general information. I get paid for this, since leads are valuable!

If you are interested in affiliate marketing, and you already know a bit about the internet, I like this new e-book: Affiliate Project X. I like it because it's basically a step by step guide to picking a good product, making a selling page for that product, making great advertising copy, and then various ways to get people to read your ads.

The topics on pay per click and adwords are probably worth the price of the book! Chris, the author, will explain what you are missing in setting up pay per click adwords campaigns. I know I certainly needed to know that, since my adwords campaigns were dismal failures before.

He also gives other traffic ideas, and some of them are for free trafic. He tells you how to find out what the super affiliates are doing, and how to copy their success.

Now this e-book is not free, but I think you will be happy with your investment after implementing one or two of his strategies. You can go to his website and sign up for a FREE NEWSLETTER which will also give you tips. In fact I did that at first, and then I got hooked and bought the E-Book!
