There are literally thousands of ways to make a buck on the internet. Here are a few examples of websites that were successful using some of those ways. The best part about it is that you can copy their success!
1 SkiResortInformation.comThis business idea is based around the website http://www.buyincomeproperties.com that I mentioned earlier in the book. As you know, it sold for $30,000 on eBay!
The idea for this website, skiresortinformation.com is for it to be the central hub for when people look for information on ski resorts in the US and around the world.
It will also be the place ski resorts will want to advertise their services.So what you will want to do is the following:
1) Create a free and paid directory listing for ski resorts to advertise their services, like buyincomeproperties.com does for their advertisers.
2) Create 5 to 10 digital e-books on all areas of ski resort information. You can find topics for ebooks by going to Amazon.com and having a look at the type of books people are selling based on ski resort and skiing information.
3) A free forum/message board so people can post questions and talk to each other. This builds a nice little community on your site.
4) Create 10 or so articles that you can put on your site and send out to publishers for free traffic
5) Create an affiliate program so people can promote your digital e-books for you and drive massive traffic to your site for free while making sales.
6) Setup a mailing list people can subscribe to, to get information on ski resorts and things like that.
The idea of the business is to tap a niche market. People are looking to go away for a skiing holiday, but they are not sure where to go, or what to do. So if you can create a site that has good information on skiing and ski resort holidays, people will flock to your site, and so will advertisers.
2 - Golfingmoney.comSo many people love playing golf right? I know I do, and if you do a search for the world golf in any search engine you will find thousands of results, because millions of people every month are searching for the term golf.
While trying to make money in the general "golf" market would be very hard, there are always plenty of niche markets you can tap into off golf.
This business idea for instance will be based around showing people how to make money with their love of golf! Everyone who has a hobby would love to know how to turn it into a fulltime income or even make enough money so they don't have to pay out of pocket for their hobbies expenses. I know my hobbies cost me a fortune every month and I'm looking for ways to make them end up costing me nothing.
So what is Golfingmoney.com all about?
We all know how profitable starting your own membership site is, well this idea would be perfect to start a membership site on.
Setting up a membership site is very easy and I've talked about it earlier in this book. I've setup a membership site myself and I used http://www.visiongateportal.com to create it for me.
This service will allow you to start a membership site for $60 a month!What you could do is every week create two new articles on how people can make money with their love of golf, post them to the site and charge people a flat fee per month to subscribe. You could charge up to $19.95 a month for a site like this.
Some of the topics you could talk about would be:How to become a golf caddy
How to start your own online golf store How to get paid to work at a golf course How to become a professional golfer
One of the hottest niche markets off the Internet marketing field is reprint rights. Everyone wants to have their own products without having to create them, themselves.
Basically, reprint rights are products people have created like e-books or anything digital usually and they allow people to buy rights to sell the product as their own without having to give any money from the sales to the original owner.
Reprint rights sell from as low as $17 to as high as $15,000 and more.The idea for this business is to be the middle man when people are looking for reprint rights. You could create a site that allows people to advertise the type of reprint rights they are offering to their product and you could charge them a set fee or take a percentage of the sale.
This is sort of like the first business idea, the difference really is the market.You could even set it up as a membership site. I know I would pay to join a site that had honest reviews on reprint rights for sale. Become the central hub for people looking for reprint rights and for people looking to advertise their reprint rights.
4 - Payperclickdating.comThis is one of the business ideas which I think has the highest potential to make you a million dollars, it's also the one with the most risks and the probably the most costly to start up compared to the other business ideas I've suggested.
The idea is based around two of the most popular services on the Internet to date, dating and pay per click search engines.
The idea of the business is to start your own pay per click dating site. There is nothing like this anywhere on the Internet, and it will no doubt make the person who can make this work a lot of money. The way I see this business going is as follows. The site will be a pay per click search engine, but instead of search results for websites, people will search for profiles of people looking for dates online.
The person with the profile on the site will pay so much per click to be listed under certaincategories just like a normal pay per click search engine. For instance, if someone is from Texas and has brown hair they could bid to be in that category.
All the people have to do who are searching for dates is select the categories they want to look under and the all the people who wish to have their profile listed on the site have to do is bid for positions in categories they want to be listed under just like any normal pay per click search engine.
I would also charge a small fee to enter the site for people who haven’t put a profile on the site but are browsing. This way the people who have a profile on the site won't just be getting clicks from freebie seekers.
The only problem would be getting everything setup with the site. It will take some programming knowledge, but that can all be hired from Elance.com.
What I would do is buy an existing pay per click search engine script, which you can find on google.com and get someone on elance.com to modify it so its exactly what you want.
5 - Takeashortbreak.comEverybody wants to get away for a weekend or long weekend every once and a while but no one really knows where to go or what to do and by the time they figure out what their plan is, they have usually run out of time and decide to do it at a later date.
This is where you come in. This business idea is all about selling easy to create e-books about travel destinations that are close to home.
This is very easy to setup. The first thing you would need to do is find out where Americans like to spend their free time. These would be the places you write about.
For instance, here are a few book titles you could use.Romantic weekends for 2 The best skiing holidays for the whole family on a budget
48 hours in Houston The complete guide to 3 day cruises Etc....
Basically all you have to do is find out the hottest destinations people who are travelling to for short breaks, write guides for them all, setup a simple website and affiliate program, something like http://www.fabjob.com and you're set.
6 - DigitalProductCreation.comOne of the hottest topics on the Internet right now is that of people learning how to create digital products, like e-books and software that they can sell online and make either a full time or part time income with.
People are looking for ways to make money online, because they have or fear they might lose their jobs, or they are sick of working
9-5 and constantly hear about people who are able to work from home.
This business idea is all about teaching people how to create digital products, easily and quickly. Like most people who get into this sort of business, I would be staying away from the "Internet marketing" crowd big time and I would try and target people who are new to the Internet and the business in general.
Not only does this make you stand out in the crowd, it will also make things easier when it comes to creating the business itself.
You're probably thinking how can I create a business about creating digital products if I've never done anything like that before, and that is a good question, but I have a very good answer.
Some of the best products I've ever brought on the Internet were not created by the owner of the business, they either got someone to create the product for them or they brought in experts and interviewed them and turned their knowledge into a product.
The best way to get started in this business is to hire an expert in the field of product development and use their knowledge to create your own products.
For instance, for $19.95, you could sell an ebook on getting started in product development, for $47 you could see a download video showing steps on how to create your own digital products, for $97 you could sell a cd set with a comprehensive guide to creating and selling your own digital products, for $297 you could sell a complete set of dvd's with 1 or 2 hours of consultation on product development and for over $500 you could even do a seminar.
7 - TopUSbedandbreakfasts.comThis is another idea like the first one. Bed and breakfasts right now are huge, especially for people looking for information online.
Hundreds of thousands of people every month are looking for reviews and tips on setting upthe perfect weekend getaway at a B
The idea I had for this business was to create it as an information hub for everything to do with bed and breakfasts, but with a twist.
There are sites already that do this and do it well, but that don't do it from the males point of view.
Males know very little about this sort of thing (I'm one) and when I was first looking to take the lovely lady in my life away for a romantic BBgetaway, I had no idea where to start. If you could solve this problem, you would have a winner on your hands.
This is a great idea to start a site on. Just like skiresortinformation.com you would get a lot of your money from advertising on your site and you could even sell digital products, e-books etc.
If you don't feel like you have the knowledge to write about bed and breakfasts, hire someone from Elance.com to write it for you.
8 - Makemoneywith.comThis business idea is all about teaching people how to make money with their love of.... anything.
Let me explain.
People want to know how to make money with their hobbies or interests, and this business will tap into that market and the easiest way to do that would be to create a series of e-books that take a few hours to create each and setup a simple website that sells them.
Here are a few book ideas. How to make money with your love of scrap booking How to make money with your golfing knowledge
How to make money with your knowledge of eBayHow to make money with your skills in word working
Each e-book would have its own sales letter and individual sales page, i.e.
http://www.makemoneywith.com/ebay.html
This business idea is also an extension of another business idea I've talked about already, but in this idea, you're creating the products with resale rights, not just selling them.
Selling reprint rights to digital products is a hot business right now, but there is one field that is really full of rubbish and really doesn't need another reprint right, that field would be Internet marketing.
Internet marketers are still looking for reprint rights, but they don't want to sell more products on marketing and this is where you come in.
The best example I could give you of the idea in use would be Bill Myers
http://www.sitebank.com. While this sells mainly Internet marketing products, this would be the type of layout I would use, just with different book titles.
So instead of writing about marketing, you could write e-books on all sorts of topics. A few book ideas I had were;
How to become a highly respected fighter pilot How to take care of a pet ferret The complete beginners guide to salt water fishing How to start your own lobby group
Yes the titles of the book are a little obscure, but the big buzz word on the Internet right now is niche marketing, and this book ideas certainly fall under that category.
If you had around 5 to 10 quality e-books ready to sell with reprint rights, sales letters, marketing material and you advertised it on the
Clickbank.com/login.html (where merchants advertise their products to affiliates) page, I would say you'd make a good amount of money. Of course, nothing is guaranteed.
The last business idea I have for you is a simple membership site on how to stop the ageing process. It's a very hot topic right now and its will no doubt be a successful business model.
I've already talked about setting up a membership site, so no use being redundant.
What you do need to know is the type of articles people are going to want to read.
The type of people who join this site will probably be older persons, probably mainly female who are after diet tips to help them look younger, like what foods to eat, what type of creams and ointments work well, what type of exercise to do, that sort of thing.
You can find most of this type of information by doing a search in the Google search engine, but people don't always have time to look for the information when they could just pay for it all to be in one spot.
If you didn't want to write the content yourself, you could hire someone from Elance.com to do it for you.
