Basic Concepts of Making Money Online for Beginners
I can tell by the general consensus of the emails I'm getting that you guys are still feeling overwhelmed by the whole make money online deal. You probably don't know where to begin and it's like grabbing at straws to get anyone who really knows how to MMO to share their secrets with you. This comes out of fear that once they reveal what works in MMO that everyone will be doing it and it will no longer work anymore.
That is true to a certain extent for technical issues and formulas but doesn't apply to what I'm going to tell you about later. Sharing the basic concepts of MMO with you will not hurt me or my profits in any way simply because the way that I make money online isn't affected by anything other than rankings in Google's SERPs. Rank higher than me, make more money than me.
It's that simple.
You may have noticed that this is a relatively new MMO blog and you may also notice that there are no affiliate links or any other form of monetization for that matter anywhere on this MMO blog currently (as of today's date). Why? It's all part of a strategy that I use to make money from my blog and rank high in the SERPs. I know that it seems contradictory, but you will understand later on how I will make more money and rank higher in Google by delaying monetization.
Which brings me back to my reason for writing this, if you're an MMO beginner you probably don't know how to get started with setting up an internet business. I'm sure you've got tons of questions (I know because I check my email!):
How do I make a blog?
What is MMO?
What are some basic money making concepts?
How do you make money online?
Do I have to sell anything?
What's the best niche to work in?
Which niche makes the most money?
What's adsense?
Should I use adwords?
How do I set up an adsense account?
How do I get traffic?
How does adsense work?
And the list goes on and on understably. You will always have new questions about making money online as long as you do this thing. It's an environment that you must be willing to continually learn in order to be successful. My point is that you clearly want to make money online and your are willing to learn if you're here reading this. I mentioned earlier that this blog is not monetized in any way and I don't have any affiliate links or products anywhere on this blog. I'm not trying to make any money off of you by recommending this product or that. Most MMO bloggers will tell you that you can make money fast if you just buy this software or that book.
No Sir, none of that here.
I'm only talking about the basics of making money online that don't cost you a thing. Forget about using Adwords or buying Aaron Wall's SEO book. You don't need them. You can make money without spending money. If you use Adwords you will make money but you will also end up paying that much or more right back for the cost of advertisement.
How Adsense Works
What I do recommend is that you use Adsense because it is 100% free and it is also a dream money maker for beginners because you can be completely computer illiterate and still make money using free traffic on your free blogger blog (more on free blogs later). It doesn't get any more basic than that folks. With Adsense, Google provides the advertisements for you and even matches them to your content so that all of the ads showing up on your blog are relevant to what you're writing about making those ads more appealing to your visitors.
You make money from search traffic.
A visitor googles a term that they want to know more about or maybe they google something that they want to buy and they end up on your blog reading your content. Then that visitor sees an ad by Google that is relevant to what they were looking for when they found your site and then they click the ad to continue looking for whatever it is that they were looking for and you make money.
How?
Google pays you per click for those adsense ads. You aren't selling anything so your visitors don't have to buy anything for you to make money. It's a beautiful, basic system for making money online. Advertisers pay Google then Google pays you. This is how you make money with adsense. There are a few things I'd like to talk more about in the next section of this article because they didn't get all the air time that they need in this one. So let's call it a day and we will pick up next time on basic concepts of making money online for beginners.
