Getting Started List of ways to make money

There are many different ways to make money, both online and offline, so the list below is not inclusive by any means. Every business starts by showing how their product or service will solve a problem.

The niche you choose is important but it has to be big enough to allow you to make a profit, a return on the effort required to be successful. The niche should not be so large that it will be difficult to compete.

I’ve started by listing some of the top ways to make money online. These are very popular and very competitive, but not impossible if you’re willing to put in the work.

Make Money Blogging
Making money blogging is very high on my list. Basically it means that you decide on a niche, write lots of valuable content, choose the marketing channels you’ll use for promotions, grow a list of raving fans and monetize your blog.

That’s it in one sentence. Hold on, not so easy. It’s a simple process and it works… if you set it up correctly.

It starts by deciding on what you will blog about. Now remember, you’re not just writing for yourself, the idea is to gain an audience that would be interested in your subjects. It also helps if you have knowledge and experience in your chosen niche or you’re willing to do whatever it takes to learn all about it.

An example of this is a guy you may have heard about. He’s been around for a long time and I believe still making money on his backyard chicken coup building plans. Of course he has competition now but still ranks on the first page of Google. Have a look at his story.

Ways to Make Money Selling Services

Making money selling services can be done by combing both offline and online marketing methods.   You can promote and sell your own services and other people’s services.

It starts by setting up your website. I call this your storefront online and as a web designer myself, I only recommend WordPress. This type of making money will take some planning and strategic marketing if you’re looking for success only through online means.

Many businesses have websites to create credibility among their current customers and prospects but most of their marketing is done offline. Tip: every business is being checked out online first.

Some people think that if you build it, they will come.That’s simply not true.

As you can see in this screenshot of a search done for “making money online”  over 9 million websites are already online.

Additionally I have an app that shows that 201,000 people are searching for these keywords and the competition at 0.81 is pretty high.

Does it mean that it would be impossible to rank on the first or second page for these keywords? No, it means that it will take a lot of work, writing lots and lots of very valuable content to get there.

Here’s a list of some of the services being offered online:

  • WRITING
  • WEB DESIGN
  • EMAIL MARKETING
  • RELATIONSHIP MARKETING
  • NETWORK MARKETING
  • LIFE COACHES
  • BUSINESS CONSULTANTS
  • FINANCIAL ADVISORS
  • REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS
  • GRAPHIC ARTISTS
  • SELF HELP INDUSTRY
  • MEDITATION
  • PUBLIC SPEAKING
  • EDUCATIONAL SERVICES
  • ONLINE TRAINING PROGRAMS

and the list goes on and on… What kind of service or product would you like to offer and specialize in promoting?

Ways to make money fast

It’s important to note that if you choose a niche that you have knowledge and experience in and are passionate about getting your word out, you can become very successful over time.

If you’re interested in ways to make money quickly, there are none that I have found. Some people online will try to entice you into their “proven program for making fast cash” but I do not recommend wasting your money on these.

Often not revealed is that you’ll need a large budget to do lots of advertising that often does not get the results expected.
