Residual Income Business Opportunity
Can you build your own residual income business?!
This proven method, currently earning thousands a top residual income is easy
to run, available to everyone and requires NO technical know-how.
Choose your business
You may wonder what you might choose as a business? Pick up a pen and paper
and write down all those things that interest you - you don't necessarily need to
know a lot about them - but simply have an interest in those areas. This will be
the starting basis for your research later on - to find out which of these areas is
likely to be most profitable for you.
Do your keyword research
A keyword is the phrase used to describe a word which people regularly search for
on the internet. Find out which keywords or subjects are likely to make most
money. Using Overture and Wordtracker, together with Clickbank affiliate sales
programs site, you can find out which are likely to be most profitable for you.
Choose your website name
Once you have found out what your best keywords are, try and include them in
your website name. For example, the research for this site indicated that "best
home based internet businesses" was a good key phrase, but would include
several very popular keywords.
Set up your website
There are literally thousands of companies keen to host your new website. If you
are not sure how to set up a website, but are looking for a simple way to set it up,
try Yahoo Small Business. You can set up a site with them quickly and easily and
they also provide the Yahoo Sitebuilder software which is easy to use and
included free. They also provide an online store facility with payment via Paypal,
if you are actually going to be selling goods.
Optimising your website
This is the way that you let the search engines know that your site is really all
about your keywords.
As well as including your keywords in the Title and names of your pages, you need
to use the keywords in the first and last lines of your text, as well as any ALT tags
on pictures.
The best piece of software that I've found is Web Position 4, this checks that you
have optimised your pages for the search engines. You'll come higher up the
search pages and that means you get even more visitors.
Publish your website
Once you've got your site up and running, optimized the pages - you're ready to
go live! I'm sure you'll find it as exciting as I did watching my own website appear
for the first time.
This is where Yahoo Sitebuilder is really easy, you don't need a special uploading
program, you just click the "Publish" button and it's all done for you in a matter of
seconds.
Get your visitors
The proven way to get visitors to your site is LINKS. This is when another website
has a link pointing to your site. So, how do you get these without spending hours?
LinkMetro has an easy sign-up and has just introduced an excellent value
automated links process - it's so easy I got over 200 links to my site in the first
month without really trying.
Links are also the key to getting a higher pagerank within Google - which is a key
factor to ranking well on Google. Other search engines also considering
incoming links to your site.
Submit to the search engines - or not!?
You could spend hours and lots of hard earned cash on getting your site submitted
to the search engines. For the last five sites I've created I've not even bothered to
submit to the search engines. Just get those incoming links and the search
engines will find you! The main search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN, AltaVista,
Alltheweb) are crawling other sites all the time, and they'll pick your site up
quickly if you get those incoming links.
Which search engines to target & why
Why, oh why, do people regard Google as the only search engine worth being
listed on? It can take months to get a worthwhile listing on Google, yet I have
found that listings on other search engines, such as MSN, can be quicker and far
more profitable.
A Christmas website that I set up in mid-October made excellent Adsense revenue
just through MSN visitors and has only just been listed by Google!
How to get found by the search engines
As mentioned above, the best way for the search engines to find you is to get
incoming links from other sites. LinkMetro is an easy and quick way of doing this,
especially if you use their automated link building.
Joining a marketing program - Google Adsense?
This is a good way to make money from visitors to your site. Google Adsense pay
you for each person that clicks on an advert placed on your site - from as little as
2cents a click to $25 per click. It's worth doing the research on how much people
are paying for particular keywords so that you choose a profitable site.
That being said, my best site attracts literally thousands of 10cent clicks per day -
so just make sure that people are prepared to pay something for the subject you
are so keen about.

Get your affiliate links
Another revenue stream is to be an affiliate. You refer people to a related site
and get paid when they buy something. With Clickbank affiliate site, you can find
out which are likely to be most profitable for you. Some of the higher paying
products will make you over $50 per sale. I make a nice income from some $7
sales in a niche market.
Again, go for what interests you and is related to your site.
Watch your site statistics
Keep an eye on the visits to your site. This is where Yahoo really score.
Download your site logs on a regular basis and use Weblog Expert to analyse
which pages people are visiting, which search engines they are using and what
keyword phrases they have typed in. This is all very valuable information to help
you find what people are looking for and create more pages that they might be
interested in.
Be patient - it may take a month or two to see the money start to come in.
Meanwhile, add a page to your site as often as you can, keep doing your keyword
research, optimize each of your new pages and keep getting those links back to
your site.
Now sit back and watch the money start to come in - or set up your second, third or
fourth site.
Email me and tell me how it feels the first time you wake up in the morning to find
you've been making money while you sleep!
Best wishes,
