Legitimate Online Money Making – Web 2.0

For those seeking legitimate online money making opportunities on the internet, the abundance of choice can be a mixed blessing.

Your search for money making blog could quite easily see you buying ten to twenty marketing e-books that all promise to unlock the net’s treasures. More like ‘break the bank’! However, if you harness the power of Web 2.0 in your plans, then you are buying into the future of the internet rather than old rehashed ideas that have had their day.

So what is Web 2.0? Why wasn’t there a Web 1.0, or even a Web 0.0? I wouldn’t worry about that. Web 2.0, often called ‘Social Media’ is a ’sea change’ in how people – including your potential customers – use the internet, and it has become a goldmine for legitimate online money making.

In the ‘old days’ of the internet (not that long ago in fact) it was all about highly techie people building websites, something none of us ordinary folk could ever do. Our job was to surf the internet and learn from these very clever people who’d built these sites.

Microsoft’s ‘Frontpage 2003′ was a great gift to us ‘layman’ as now we could chance our arm at legitimate online money making without having to pay a geek four grand for the privilege. Marketing our online business was a basic choice between paid or unpaid methods, ie Pay-per-click, ezine advertising and Press releases at one end, to Article marketing, traffic exchanges and forum marketing at the other.

Web 2.0 has ‘opened up the door’ for people to pursue legitimate online money making by the use of blogs, YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Squidoo, Hubpages, and countless others by making the internet experience interactive. That’s the big shift and the even bigger opportunity for you.

Google, still the heavyweight search engine, loves Web 2.0 sites. Blogs, whether you use WordPress or Blogger.com, are particularly attractive because the content is always being updated and refreshed, improving the surfer’s web experience (Google’s major ‘driver’).

So you can now make legitimate money online without bleeding to death on Adwords pay per click. Create a blog and get in the habit of posting (decent content, not rubbish) regularly. Also contribute to sites like Hubpages, Squidoo and Scribd. Then you’ll be on the right side of the Web 2.0 wave. Harnessing the power of Web 2.0 is a must for anyone seriously pursuing legitimate online money making activities. There is an important ‘don’t’ though. Web 2.0 should not be an excuse for ‘blanket’ pitching business opportunities to people. That gets short shrift.

You see, Web 2.0/Social Media is all about community. It’s about giving value, and only then receiving fruitful connections. In other words, it’s not like the stock market. People are attracted to you by the value you give, and if you give enough of it freely then the right people will gravitate towards your business offering.

Legitimate money online, unless you want to throw big bucks at it, takes time and patience. But if you make a habit of using Web 2.0 in your ‘branding’ efforts, then the wave is going to keep hurtling forwards, with you triumphantly on top.
