Making money online is not hard if you know how to do it. Internet scams have scared people away from the real online opportunities. I remember someone once said "In order to succeed you either have to take a chance or be given one." So I was willing to take a chance to find out if someone could really make money online and how it was done.
After months of trying different programs, I realized I was going about it all wrong. I was trying to market other people's products and services without knowing how to write good content about them. Creating great content or articles for your products and service is the key to making money online. Content is what makes up the internet. If there's no content about your product or service no one would be able to find it. So the content you create needs to be informative, give something to the reader and provide a solution to their problems.
Before you start to write your articles and content you'll need to first read and research everything about that product or service. After you have read and memorized your product and it's features, now you should be ready to write something about it. You'll be surprised that once you start writing the rest will just come to you because you've memorized so much about it.
A lot of people are afraid they can't write well or put together good content to make money online but that's far from the truth. Try to remember that when your write articles, talk to your readers and tell them about your products without sounding like you’re advertising. Find a way to get your message across without making the reader feel like you’re just trying to sell them something. A good way to start would be to write an article and make points about how much the product or service will help them or solve their problems. For instance: If you were trying to market a product for “Tide”. You can’t say buy “Tide” products in your article, what you can say is: When you do laundry you can count on all of your clothes being extremely clean and fresh and in your resource box is where you put your link and your sales message for your products so the reader can visit your site to get more information on the product that gets your clothes so clean.
Here are a few pointers to help with the success of your online marketing and your other promotional efforts:
1. Use original content created only by you - using content created by someone other than you may get you penalized for plagiarism or duplicate content. You don't want to get banned by search engines.
2. Use keyword rich titles and descriptions - examples: Clean Laundry - keyword or keyword phrase, Clean Laundry Is a Must - keyword rich Title, Clean Laundry has gotten my family spoiled to a certain smell for their clothes - keyword rich Description.
3. Own your domain name - example - http://your-company-name.com
4. Think of creative ways to word and use your keywords in your articles and content mainly at the beginning of your sentence as shown above.
5. Use article directories for massive exposure, link building and 1st page rankings - This is very important after you've done 1 - 4 correctly
Article directories are one of the best sources for getting on the first page of Google. You can find a list of the top directories to submit your content through any search engine. The hardest part of making money online is getting traffic because article submissions are very time consuming and tedious. So I'm suggesting you use an article submission service or software to cut your time down.
Once you have submitted your articles and content on the web you can monitor your traffic and sales to see what's working and what isn't. You'll have to test certain articles and products first to see which ones are generating the most readers and traffic. Here's where your dedication comes in because some of the things you may try out at first may not work so well so you'll need to test out other products and article styles. If you want to make money online you have to keep at it until you see some results from your writing efforts. No road to success has ever been an easy one.
