Make Money With A Website Without Selling
By:  Alan Liew

Using a website to make money online has become one of the most popular
ways
nowadays. There are several ways you can make money with website:

a) Sell your own products and services.
b) Sell other people’s stuff (affiliate program).
c) Place Google ads on your website and earn whenever someone clicks a
Google ad.

The first and second ways take a lot of time and require experience and
knowledge of Internet marketing. The third option is much easier and
quicker to make money online.
To place Google ads on your website you need to first
join Google AdSense program. You don’t need a professional look or
fantastic site to sign up with Google AdSense program.
A clean and simple site will be good enough.

The content of your website can be any topic as long as it does not
violate Google policies.
You can read more about Google policies at
https://www.google.com/adsense/policies. You can write a topic or subject
that is related to your experience, area of expertise, interest or
background. If you are an expert at something you can make your content
valuable and useful to others by providing advice and educational
resources.
If your interest and hobby are sport cars, you may introduce the latest
models of sport cars and discuss some of the best tools for building
the sports cars.

If you have no idea of what topic to write or have no interest at all in
writing something, you still can own a money making AdSense site. Your
solution is create a website solely to publish articles written by
different authors.
Just choose one topic or more and put several relevant articles for
each topic and place your Google ads on each article page.

Build an AdSense site with minimum cost
Hiring a professional to build a site is expensive. Finding a
freelancer to create a website will be much cheaper.
However employing a freelancer is
still not the most effective way to minimize your cost. The best way to
minimize cost is use free website builder to create website. There are
several free website builders allow users to build website without
experience and technical knowledge. You can find these easy site
builders by performing a search from the major search engines like
Google and Yahoo.
 
With site builder you can have a website or more absolutely free. You only
pay for the domain name and website hosting.

Once you get your website launched. You’ll need to figure out how to
drive visitors to your website.
Your website will not generate income if no one
visits your site. There are several ways to get targeted
visitors/traffic to your site fast.

Pay-per-click (PPC) programs
Pay-per-click (PPC) programs allow you to bid for top-ranking positions on

the keywords you have selected. When a visitor searches the keyword(s)you
bid on and then click through to your site, you pay the amount you bid.
 
The two most popular PPC programs are Google Adwords and Yahoo Search
Marketing.
However it is costly to advertise on this two PPC search engines and
probably you will face the problem of your AdSense earning can’t cover the
advertising cost. Fortunately, there are other alternatives such as
Bidvertiser.com, Adbrite.com, Findology.com and so on. I recommend you
advertise with Bidvertiser.com and Adbrite.com at the beginning as they are
much cheaper to advertise with compare to Google Adwords and Yahoo Search
Marketing. Bidvertiser.com and Adbrite.com are not search engine. When
you sign up to advertise with them, they will distribute your contextual
ads to the categories and websites within their network of your choice. You
have no doubt will advertise on those categories and high traffic sites
related to you website.

You should also consider select those unrelated categories as  
well because these categories could send you targeted visitors and increase
your AdSense revenue. Don’t set your bid too high. Just anyway from 6 cents
to 9 cents should be good enough to drive hundreds of targeted visitors to
your site within few days. As long as the daily AdSense earning greater than
the daily advertising cost, you can continue your ad campaigns.

RSS advertising
RSS advertising is a free away to gain more exposure for your website.

By creating an RSS file and submitting it to those RSS directories and
search engines, the links to the content in your website will appear
in front ofthose who read information using RSS readers or
news aggregators and as a result driving targeted visitors to your website.

Need more explanations?
You can go to Google and enter the search term ‘make an RSS feed’. You will
find detailed explanations of RSS and step-by step instructions on how
to create an RSS file to increase your website traffic. Be patient, it
will take you several days to learn and understand RSS. Some RSS sites also
show an easy option to make RSS file without knowledge of HTML code by using
free software tools.

Give away free content
Another free way to increase your website traffic is write articles and
submit them to free content websites. Your articles can drive thousands
of visitors to your site within weeks if your content is impressive.

There are other effective ways to increase traffic for your website.
You can find a ton of free information and resources about website
marketing and promotion from search engines.

The more traffic you can drive to your
website the higher your AdSense earning will be.
