In the course of consulting and training people on how to make money on the internet,  I have always been asked this fundamental question, ” how do I make money online”.

 .

Making money online is pretty straight forward and I will summarize it as follows:

 .

 .

1. Do your research and choose a hot target market where the people have lots of money to spend. To do your research you can use free tools like Google AdWords Keyword Tool or the free keyword tool at Wordtracker.com  or paid tools like Market Samurai.  Assess the keyword volume which is analogous to the a hot target market, check out the competition and then find a place for yourself.

    .

2. Set up a website with a means to capture people’s names and email address which will be stored in your autoresponder. You can build a simple one page website using tools like dreamweaver or frontpage or use WordPress or Blogger to build you your website. For your autoresponder you can use Getresponse or Aweber.

    .

3. Give a way something VALUABLE by people inputting their names and email address to your lead capture page website, so people want to visit your website: This can be an information product you have written or purchased the resell rights. It can also be a free service.

    .

4. Sell something , your product or other people’s product as an affiliate or both.

    .

5. Get traffic to our website to get leads and more sales ( purchase traffic through facebook, google, bing, other people’s list or SEO i.e. search engine optimization)

    .

6. Convert the people gotten from your capture page to leads or potential customers, by continuously getting in touch with them.

    .

7. Convert your leads to sales by selling them stuff relevant to your niche.

    .

8. Make money.

    .

9. Repeat the process of getting traffic to your website, giving stuff and converting leads to sales.

    .

The bottom line is give something of value and everything will follow automatically.
