Forums: Discussions for entrepreneurs and small business.

Hi there ,

              from past 4 yrs , i am looking for simple answer " hopw to make money online".as far my experience goes ,ill list some ways , though i didnt make much money yet, but i know these methods can make money and no affiliates here . coz personally i think affiliates are very hard to do and only people who make money are ones who start this thing.

1)My current fav. is sports arbitage - its proven and many people across asia and europe are using this .First of all they have simple concept , its not something very complicated.

2)ebay (only if you have few thousand dollars to start with), i can help anyone  who want to start this, as i joined auction course worth over 400$ and lots of ebooks, i think i am pretty good in it ,

3)make your own niche website , this is cool stuff , everyone got some kind of hobby and if you got some skills (i am not talking big things) , but smaller ones  like writing in blogs, then this can be profitable as i know one 12yr girl who made he website and now making 2000$ per month , which isnt bad for 12 yr.

4)online investment - ok , this thing isnt for faint hearted , if you are daring and can make bold and quick decision , then only invest in hyip , as 12dailypro and studiotraffic already down.There will be someone somewhere ready to fill vaccum. hyip is art , like legisi.com , and thats good (though ddos attack, but they are paying)

5)online classes - if you anything , anything , just start your online class and people will pay you for that.

       i guess this is something to start the forum , let me know what are your experiences and we will talk here only of systems , programs , strategies  that work for all people.

great topic ankur,

one of the ideas I have been playing around with is physical security consultancy services specifically geared towards and marketed to the small business.  I have many years in security from the perspective of needs assessments, vinrability assessments, and risk assessments.  Other services could include security systems and technology assessments and project management.  In my experience, most small businesses haven`t put much thought into physical security and either have the old burglar system and even worse, some have too much protection in place.

Wow, sorry about that...rambled on a bit!  Maybe I should give a course like suggested above or start a new thread...sorry about that!

I`ve always wanted to make money online.  I really apprecaite some of your first hand experience you shared! 

I look forward to seeing other first hand experiences of making moula on the web!

Thanks

Hi ,

      No problem bro , you can share anything here , but  whats the next step for you , how you can make it bigger?.also do u know money making schemes , give me your input

I`ve got my hands full right now, starting with bootstrapping Fresh Start Baby and maintaining my workin for da man job!  I haver tried a few things online to make money, started a million websites with plans of grandure, but I had a habit for moving on to the next before finshing one.  The only place I really made any money was ebay, selling off a few things.  Bear in mind that the monies I made were only 3 digit figures per month.  I have done a few side security consulting jobs for a few small businesses in the last year or so.  I will put some serious thought into this..thanks Ankur!

OADesign,

Thanks for the tips and info.  I love the perspective and totally see where your coming from.  Back then when I was doing the ebay thing I was really just doing it to prove to myself that it could be done.  I was by no means serious about the business, I didn`t even consider it a business, just a hobby. 

Since that I have become much more serious, and am planning for the future and success of this venture and I`m sure the many more that will come.  After reading your post I`m inspired to dig up some of those old website ideas and explore the opportunity they may provide.

Thanks for your insight, help, and perspective.  ps I`ve rated you, thanks!

Hi oadesign,

                        the baby is your`s?well your idea is very very intresting , thats what i call experience.you said 100 different sites with just remixing the content , cool!! but it really matters? i mean rather than this there should be 10 different sites with different marketing strategy, like you said different doors as 2 people knock on one door and if you got 50 doors so 100 people will be knocking at your doors , but where`s your door placed? isnt this more important , wether your door is placed in "blogs" or in"banners" or in articles , so i guess ifwe refine your idea , whatever top 15 ways of marketing we can think of , then 15 different sites with remixing its content and then put all these 15 so called doors at different places to see how many people knock at particular place, and when we know that number 6 door which is placed at "blogs" getting more traffic and number 9 door isnt getting any good response, its time to change strategy for that door, what you all guys say?

Yes, that my little buddy, my mth old son Zakkai!

So to answer knockknockhlo, yes, different marketing strategies is right.but It depends on you "product" and where the demand might be. It just so happens the in my former industry, it really didn`t matter as all the "product" was the same and the demand is there. So what made the difference (again in that industry) was price. Its funny how some things sell better at 29.99 than they do at 14.99.... Perceived Value can be a weird thing at times...
