How To Make Money Online Without A Website
by: Melanie Mendelson

You don't need to have a website to make money on the Internet. Here is a proven strategy to make money online without a website:

Step 1: Find Affiliate Product

Find a product to promote where you make good commission on each sale. Generally, you will get the biggest commissions on digital products. Digital products are defined as something that is downloaded directly to a customer's computer after purchasing, like electronic books or software.

Since there is no extra cost per unit, no inventory and no shipping, the commissions are much greater than on regular "physical" goods. The most common commission on digital products is 50%. The best place to find such products is Clickbank.com.

Sign up as a reseller (also called affiliate) for a product that looks the most appealing to you. After you sign up, you will get a unique affiliate link where you need to send people to purchase the product.

Your affiliate link will have a special code that will tell the product owner that it's you who referred the customer. The affiliate link code will allow your commissions to be tracked correctly and assigned to you.

Step 2: Get Domain Name

Get a domain name to redirect to your affiliate link. A domain name is a .COM name (like yourproduct.com). You can get it for under $9 at GoDaddy.com. GoDaddy.com will allow you to redirect your domain name to your affiliate link at no extra cost.

So when someone types in your .COM domain in their browser, it will go to your affiliate link. The visitor will see the website with the product you promote, and the commissions will be tracked correctly.

The reason why you need a domain name is that it's memorable and it makes you look more trustworthy. Affiliate links tend to be too long and arouse suspicion. For example, most people would rather click on the link bestwidgets.com as opposed to abcwidgets.com

A domain name will make your affiliate link look like it's your own website. So basically, you will have a product to promote and a website to send people to and get commissions - without really having your own website.

Make Money Online Using Free Traffic

Step 3: Drive Traffic

In order to make sales, you need to get visitors to your domain name (which will forward them to the website of the product that you resell). You can pay for advertising and hope that your profit will be greater than advertising cost, or you can use free ways to generate traffic.

The most effective way to get free targeted visitors to your domain name is by writing and submitting articles. You can write short articles on the topic related to the product that you promote. At the end of the article, you include your author bio and your domain name link.

You will then submit your articles to various websites, and allow them to publish your articles as long as your link is included. Your articles will get published in many places on the Internet, and will be advertising your affiliate link at no cost to you whatsoever. People will read your articles, like what you have to say and click on your domain name link ready to buy.

Once you start getting regular sales from your articles, you can go back to step 1 and find another product to promote using this strategy. After a while, you will build up a nice source of Internet income - without even having a website.

How To Make Money From Forums

If you have a website about a topic you enjoy, you can make money from discussion forums. Talk, post links to your site, get traffic. Traffic means money, right? If not, try different affiliate programs or Google Adwords. The worst sites should get a couple cents per visitor. Now here's how to talk and make money.

Search "forum" plus the topic of your site on Google or Alta Vista. For my first site, I searched "backpacking + forum" and in the pages of results I found several good forums. I also searched related topics like "hiking" too. You can also check about.com, and other sites that have forums on many topics.

Registration is usually giving your email address and choosing a password. Some forums allow guests to post without registering. Once registered, browse the forum topics, and post a response to anything, just to "learn the ropes".

Make Money From Discussion Forums

The point of posting in forums is to get readers to come to your web site. Sure it's fun to give advice and discuss things of interest to you, but that's secondary. With that in mind, do the following:

1. Always link to your site. If they don't allow any links, find another forum.

2. Don't "spam." Sales pitches will be removed. Offer honest advice, or express an opinion, then sign off with your name and the link to your site.

3. Ask for help from others. This is an effective and acceptable way to "advertise." Enter a topic like "Can I get some advice?" and post something like, "I just started a meditation site. If some of you would visit and tell me what you think, I'd really appreciate it." Have a link to the site. People love to help, and to give opinions, and they'll click on those ads while they're at your site.

4. Look at total "views." Many forums show the total times each "thread" has been viewed. When you see some with many more than others, get in on those, or start a new thread on the same topic. Go where the traffic is, and get some of it.

I didn't like the idea of forums until I made a few posts, and saw my traffic and revenue climb for days afterwards. That convinced me. Just be polite, offer some value to others, and always have a link to your site. Many other secrets of using forums are covered in my newsletter, but this should be get you started.

The Secret of Making Money before the Come Out

Pssst...! Wanna know a secret?

How about the secret of making money before the come out?

Wouldn't it be nice to find a relatively safe way to bet so you can make more money on a consistent basis? When craps pros make their pass line bets, they usually make another bet that almost insures them a profit. However this bet is made just before the come out.

Wanna know how craps pros make a profit even before the point is established?

Let's find out!

This method involves placing the 5, 6, 8, and 9 along with a $25 pass line bet to protect you from the seven. You'll bet $25 on the pass line, place $5 each on the five and nine and $6 each on the six and eight. Be sure to request that all of your bets be "ON" for the come out roll. Let's see what happens now when each number hits -

4 or 10 - no win/loss

5 or 9 - win $7 (7:5 odds on $5)

6 or 8 - win $7 (7:6 odds on $6)

7 - win $3 (+$25 pass - $22 place)

11 - win $25 (+$25 pass )

2 or 12 - lose $25 (- $25 pass )

3 - lose $25 (- $25 pass )

So, after 36 theoretical come out rolls, the following should occur:

4/10 - no win/loss

5/9 - win $56 (+$7 x 8) (the 5 or 9 rolls four times each)

6/8 - win $70 (+$7 x 10) (the 6 or 8 rolls five times each)

7 - win $18 (+$3 x 6) (the seven rolls six times)

11 - win $50 (+$25 x 2) (the 11 rolls two times)

2/12 - lose $50 (-$25 x 2) (the 2 and 12 roll one time each)

3 - lose $50 (-$25 x 2) (the 3 rolls two times)

This comes out to a $194 win (56 + 70 + 18 + 50) and a loss of $100 (- 50 - 50), resulting in a net profit of $94!

But remember, you will still have a $25 pass line bet that you can not remove. This is why this system is for regular pass line players only. It is a terrific method for you, as a pass line bettor, to make some extra money before the come out.

So, after the come out you're left with a pass line bet (you've already dealt with the craps numbers) and you can leave your place bets up for any one more hit. You can also take odds on your pass line bet, like you would normally do.

If you're a pass line player anyway, you really should give this system a try before the come out. You'll be surprised at how much you'll win and how easy it is to play!

Pssst...! Now you know the secret of making money before the come out!
