This is the stuff I actually use.
It all starts here Website making software This is the software I said is so easy, and this is what makes it all possible. Unless you already own it, or you can make websites very quickly and do all the SEO work yourself, you have to buy this. There are also videos you can watch that also help show how easy it is to learn.
OK, so you bought the website building software. What's next? That depends on how much you want to spend and how much time you have. You probably figured out by now, I like to have fun and not work too hard, so I might suggest Hiring an Assistant Actually you can hire an assistant, SEO help, writers, you name it, and it is like a reverse auction which means since they are bidding on your work. Once you get good at hiring, you can get very talented people to help you at a price that makes it foolish not to. For example I just had SEO work done on one of my sites, and all I can say is WOW. After you sign up, ask me the sellers name and I will give it to you.
I suppose even before you hire your assistant you had better get a domain This is the place I use now, and find them to be very good. I have heard they can be difficult if you use them for both domain registeration and hosting. But I will give you two other hosts that are much better anyway, so just get your domain name there and then hop over here or here. Just remember to get a plan that allows you to host many domains. That is when this game becomes really fun, because for one small fee a month you can have many, many sites and as I said the software is so easy to use you just have to input your thoughts and collect an income.
Once you have your site up, it is wise to use PPC (pay per click) I use only Yahoo and Google right now. REMEMBER... do not open your first PPC account without getting a starting bonus. You can only get this once, it is usually $50-$100. You need that bonus to learn how to make a profit, or just to make more profit. It is easy to find bonus coupons so make sure you get and use them.
PPC, looks easy, but to do it right you should get some help. This seems to be the most highly recommended. I was quite pleased with it. Some of the marketing information I already knew but I definitely received more than enough from it to pay for itself many times over.
The other way to do SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is by yourself. Well not really by yourself, because to make a decent impact you will need this This software too, is very well done. Even if you get someone else to help you with SEO, I recommend buying this to see how it is done. You can even download and use this software, as with most of the software I recommend, on two computers. That means, you can have the software and your assistant in another country can have the same software. We (you the reader and I) could even work together where we each choose a different assistant to give the software to, that way if your assistant is busy and you need to hire my assistant, they will be familair with our software. Can you see how working together can pay off?
So where do you find things to sell? One of the most popular places to find items to sell is ClickBank, you can even sell your own items there.. Another very popular site is Commission Junction and last but not least, LinkShare.com
Actually you can also usually find good products to sell, by just going to Google and typing "your niche word" + "affiliate" and see what catches your eye.
This is mostly what you need to get started, but to make it even better than you have to just try a few things and study...and that means Reading in the Flow State
I also said I would tell you a way to listen to The World is Flat. This is an excellent company, and not only can you get the book I recommended but a couple more free. I have had their monthly subscription since December 26, 2003, cannot recommend it enough.
Well I guess that is it for now, I will update this as much as possible. I hope you feel this is enough to get you going, because it has worked for me.
Do not wait; the time will never be 'just right'. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.- Napoleon Hill
