Money Ideas

Selling digital products is a good way to make money online. I used to download every stupid ebook and software that was free. I deleted most of them one minute after but a few were good.

And I had Resell Rights for some of them. So I searched on Google to find where I could sell them.

The best sites I found was Lulu and Payloadz. At Lulu you sell ebooks, textbooks, calendars, artwork, music, videos and many others. The site got the first place in Books category for the 2007 Web 2.0 Awards by SEOmoz.

Payloadz is the same but has a simpler interface. The Basic account type is free but they offer Premium accounts too. Your products will be listed on the Payloadz Store and you can even have affiliates promoting your products. This is what they offer:

• Free lifetime Basic Account
• First month free for all Premium Accounts
• Secure file storage on our servers
• Automated delivery of your digital goods immediately after payment
• Sell anywhere online: your own site, our Store, eBay and more.
• Affiliate Builder, a fully-functioning affiliate tracking and payment system
• Supports Downloads and CD fulfillment

All you need to have is a Paypal account.

If you need to know the top paying adsense keywords maybe you should take a look at iotaweb.org. All you have to do is search for a word or phrase and the site will give you the latest results with the highest Cost Per Click value. Not only for Google Adsense but also for Yahoo Publisher Network.

Top Paying Adsense Keywords

There are two theories about making money online. The first says that making money online is easy. All you have to do is create 50-60 sites (or more), copy and paste a few articles, place Adsense ads on them and…wait for the money. The idea is that you will make one dollar per day from each site so you can earn around $1500 (or more) per month.

The second says that making money online is not so easy. You should create one or two sites (no more than 3), post your own original articles, optimize it for the search engines but also keep it user friendly and try hard to get visitors. Finally monetize your site(s) and start making money.

Of course there are many ways to make money online but these two are used mostly. I used to be one of those fools who try to make money online with the first way. But not any more. I finally realized that making money online is not easy and there are not money making secrets.

I have downloaded every ebook out there about making money online and I never found the Big Secret I was looking for because it didn’t existed! Actually I never found something I didn’t know. Just think about it. Why would somebody share his money making secret with you?

I had more than 50 blogs. Some of them were good, but most of them not. 24/7 I was thinking what to do next, which blog to promote, where to get backlinks from and for which blog etc etc. It was so hard to concentrate. Until one day, as I was talking with my friend Nick, he made me to understand that what I was doing was wrong. Since than, I promised to my self that I would make a new start. And I did. And from now on I will concentrate on Money Ideas and nothing else.

If you are looking to make money without a site you should sign up at Wide Circles. This is like a get paid to click service but a little different. When you become a member you will be given some text with a link inside and a site where you should go and place the text. It is like a comment and the sites usually are blogs and forums. So, all you have to do is copy and paste. The system will verify that you placed it at the right URL and if after 5 days your comment is still there you will get paid 0.30$. I think it’s an easy way to make money fast.

Free online advertising is something many webmasters are looking for. My friend Nick, has a good free advertising service called Adgridwork.com. This free marketing service will help you to promote your website even if you don’t have a marketing plan. How it works? Well, it’s very similar to Adsense ads. After you sign up, you create your advertising campaign. You choose the layout, colors, keywords, target website etc. After you create your ad, the system will give you a Java code so you can place it on your site. Once you do that, Adgridwork will start showing ads from other members on your site. But your ad will also be shown on other members websites. If you don’t place the code on your website your ad will be inactive.

Not only you don’t have to pay but you can actually make money with this internet marketing service. All you have to do is convert the free traffic you will get in free money.

There are many ways to make money online but the most popular way is make money with Google Adsense. If you have Adsense ads on your website you can choose to have not contextual ads from Adgridwork so you will be OK with the Adsense TOS. Take a look at Adgridwork and you will see that it is a good resource for free advertising.
