How to Find Cheap Advertising on Websites

Advertising your website is important if you want to make easy money online no matter whether you make money blogging or make money selling affiliate products.  However, trying to do things like pay per click or banner ads, while effective, cost money.  How can you find cheap advertising on websites or better still, free advertising?

Commenting!

Commenting on people’s blogs, leaving feedback and reviews on products, and generally making a presence is a great way to start building backlinks and advertise yourself online, albeit in a small way.  However, you have to do this carefully; make sure to comment in a meaningful way for the blog post or products so that you are not only leaving a backlink, but you are also contributing to the blog and making the writer feel like he or she was genuinely appreciated.  Furthermore, if you make regular contributions and engage in discussions, you may well find that the writer plugs you and your site!  This leads in to the next way to get free advertising on other websites….

‘Plugging’ Each Other

If you take the time to make meaningful comments about other people’s writing, products, and website as well as engaging in discussion with the webowner or blog writer, you may well find that you can ‘trade’ links and plug each other; one website owner will push your products in return for pushing theirs on your blog or website.  You can do the same with social networking; tweeting each other and ‘liking’ each other’s fan pages are all good ways of trading publicity.

Look for it

Some websites specialize in giving cheap advertising in order to affiliate market your products or services.  Make sure to carefully research any site you decide to do this with to make sure it’s legit and effective before you start shelling out money for it.

Google AdWords

Google AdWords is a service given out by Google that allows you to advertise on the search engine sidebars or on other Google affiliated sites.  You get a wide following for only a few cents a click and Google regularly runs promotions and deals that let you save a ton of money on advertising, especially if you are new to Google ad stuff.  For example, AdWords is currently giving away $75.00 worth of AdWords which is a great way to get your business off the ground.

Article Marketing

There are countless article directories where you can write up informative articles about your site, products and services and not only get comments, backlinks and traffic, but also increases your authority on the topic.  Article directories are free to join and use and some of the best names such as Ezine can really boost your traffic numbers.

It doesn’t get much cheaper in advertising than free and using other websites to do it is a great way to get more traffic as well as more authority and even some online buddies.  As for cheap advertising, doing things like using Google AdWords or signing up with websites willing to advertise you are both great ways to save money and get more traffic to your website.

Avoiding Reasons for Failure When Trying to Make Money Online

There are a ton of ways to make money online: writing, coding, graphic design, selling products, flipping websites, selling products, advertising… if you can think about doing it, chances are, you can do it online!  But if there is such a goldmine there, why do so many people fail at it?  Is there a secret way to learn how to make extra income on the internet, or are we reading too deep into things?

Reason #1 for Failure:

You Don’t Know What to Do!

The ‘I don’t know what to do!’ person is pretty common online and across the world and have some distinctive characteristics: they bounce from online work to online work, they click on the ads showcasing ‘make thousands of dollars a month’ and they never quite settle on any one idea.

Why they Fail:  They can’t settle!  Any internet based business or job, like any job in real life, takes effort and commitment.  If you freelance, you need time to build up a client base.  If you open a store, you the store to be on long enough to get known.  And those so called ‘make thousands of dollars a month doing nothing’ are scams.

Make Extra Income on the internet by: Take a hard look at yourself, your skills, what you like to do and what you have time to do.  Then start carefully choosing what you want to start with.  Remember, in the world of the internet, all roads connect up eventually, so while you may start out with a store, you could also end up easily writing or blogging and definitely marketing.  So, you will get it all eventually, if you keep working at it.

Reason #2 for Failure:

You Want it RIGHT NOW!

Another common reason why people fail to make money online is because they get impatient.  Lured in by the glittering ads, they expect to make hundreds of dollars in their first week and quickly get discouraged and quit when they do not make the expected amount.

Why they Fail: Impatience, pure and simple.

Make Extra Income on the Internet by: Giving it time.  On average, it takes between six months and a year for any business or freelancer to get well known enough to make any appreciable amount of money and it takes longer to make lots of money.  You should also try to broaden your portfolio whenever you can; if you own a business, there is nothing stopping you from blogging and doing affiliate marketing or text link ads and making a little more money.

Reason #3 for Failure:

You Don’t Pay Yourself Enough

This one is more insidious and hits freelancers, especially newcomers.  With so many bidding sites cropping up, most freelancers end up badly undercutting their worth in order to get noticed.  While this may work fine in the beginning, the habit is a hard one to break.

Why they Fail: They may get the work, but they can’t afford to eat, leading them to be forced to quit and find gainful employment outside the home.

Make Extra Income on the Internet by: Never undercutting yourself.  After a few jobs, slowly start raising your rates.  With regulars, do it every six months or a year until you are up to more manageable, liveable fees.  Any good client will understand that you are worth the cost and you need to eat too!  Anyone who complains about your rates probably isn’t worth the time.  By the same token though, remember to stay professional and do good work or you won’t be worth paying for.

Is there a secret way to make extra income online?  Not really; it’s mostly a matter of common sense.  Find something you enjoy doing, stick with it, be patient, don’t undercut yourself and remain professional, honest, and trustworthy.  Any guru worth his salt will say basically the exact same thing.  You can make extra income on the internet, but just like any job, it takes time, commitment, effort, and the ability to treat yourself right.
