Making Money Online With Informational Websites

Filed under Making Websites
I have a number of free legitimate ideas for making money online that I’ll share with you here and now. There are numerous ways to generate income from websites. There are Adsense and other ad programs, and there is a new audio ads program just coming out. There are of course affiliate programs as well.
But the key to success is to have a website that gets traffic. Without traffic you have nothing. Get enough traffic, and you can sell anything.
I subscribe to the idea that there is no such thing as a free lunch. To be successful requires some work. These money making methods have worked for me and will work for you if you put just a little effort into it. (OK, sometimes it takes a lot of work)
If you are looking for a quick buck, I probably can’t help you…unless you already have a website that gets lots of traffic but doesn’t earn you any money…that situation could produce near instant money.
These methods will work to the degree that you work on them. You can do it part time or full time. I‘ve even built sites while vacationing on a cruise ship. I have websites about my cruise ship vacations that earn me money! In the beginning I used internet cafes while cruising in the Greek islands to upload the previous day’s photos. These days high speed internet connections are widely available on most of the cruise ships.
Well what do you know! I just gave you the first idea. Build a website about your vacations, and monetize it. Lots of opportunities here like camping, fishing, hiking, tennis, golf, softball, extreme sports…
Traveling, vacations, cruises, gambling getaways, are all things that people search for online. If you had a great vacation riding dune buggies somewhere in Southern California, then you have a potential for making money from it. If you have tips for golfers or sports fisherman you have potential web sites!
Here is what to do.
Find a subject, do research with keyword research tools online to make sure that people are searching for the kind of information you plan on offering, and get started Build your site with your human visitor in mind. Make it simple, straightforward, easy to navigate, and put in great content. Make sure it’s easy for spiders to follow links to every page.
Pick your title carefully using your most searched for keywords if possible. Make sure you have a good meta description. Put a few keywords in Alt tags for images, but do not overdo it. It’s best it if is real and useful to humans. Formulate and act on a linking strategy. Spell check your work! Be professional and don’t allow errors in grammar, spelling, or punctuation in your text.
Whenever you feel like it you can add a page or two to your site and increase its earning potential. The more you work at it the more you earn. The more good content on your site, the more visitors you will get.
One of the cool things about money making websites is that they just keep on going year after year. Some of my sites make less than $50.00 a month. But they do make money, month after month, and, year after year.
The cost of building and hosting a website is tiny. You can get a domain name for less than $10.00 a year and you can get hosting for about $5.00 a month or less. Unless you are excited by the idea of learning or using HTML, you would need to invest in a WYSWYG editor for building web pages.
I use FrontPage 3000 which I bought about a couple of years ago for a few hundred bucks.
None of this is quick though. It takes time and effort to build a good website. But there are so many online tools available these days that you don’t need to have much in the way of skill or experience to get started and do a decent job.
You will want to promote your site to get traffic. You can issue press releases, write articles and submit them to article directories and blogs. You can start your own blog. There are even submission services online that will write articles and submit them for you. Beware though that you will want to proof read and make corrections to such articles…English is probably not their native tongue.
And offline advertising can be quite effective too.
It also takes a while to get listed in the search engines. It can take up to a year or more for a decent ranking on Google. It also takes time to obtain back links which are important. There are two things that you need to do that most people won’t do in order to succeed at this endeavor.
The first is you must actually start the site, and the other is you must finish it.
You can learn in great detail about any of the things I’ve mentioned by simply doing research. Everything you need to know is on the internet if you look hard enough. You should not have to look hard though.
Since I’ve always been self employed I didn’t have a retirement program. I do now! I have websites that make money. If I stop working, they keep right on sending me monthly checks
So don’t wait any longer…follow the steps I’ve provided on this site…pick a domain name, get hosting, get an editor, build a site, start promoting, and build a nice long term income.

Over the summer, I have spent many hours researching money making opportunities on the web that didn’t require extensive work or personal info. I started off with survey sites and PTC’s which didn’t pay me very much for my efforts. I hope that you will listen to my advice and save yourself the time. I was looking for a site that required only an email and PayPal account, did not take that much time in the day, and made me the most income possible with the smallest minimal payouts. I have come across a highly recommended site called My Homepage Friends. It is a company based out of England that pays you to use their search engine which is based off of a yahoo web search. Yahoo in turn pays them for the revenue that they receive which is split 50/50 between you and them. It is paid in GBP but can be converted into any currency you wish through PayPal. I have done that math that included the fee for the PayPal conversion and each search earns you a little over 3 cents USD. The payout of 20 GBD (about $40 USD) is achieved in two months if you search 20 times a day. While $40 every two months won’t make you rich, there are many success stories including myself who have been paid (If you are still nervous, please go online and read the reviews which are largely positive.) The other great thing about myhpf is that you do not have to go out of your way to make money, which means you are earning money for what you already do. A recap of the benefits is that you could be any age and from any country as long as you have a PayPal account. You do not have to go out of your way to earn money. Many sources online can confirm that it is scam free. You do not have to give out personal information so you can stay safe. There is a low minimum payout and a relatively high pay per action. It is also easy to start up your new account. Plus, it is completely free.
How to get set up:
1. Use my referral link: http://www.myhpf.co.uk/apply001.asp?Friend=179341
2. Go on to myhpf and create an account.
3. Download the search bar and use it every day.

Hi there,
I’ve searched countless sites and forums wondering the same thing. There seems to be a fair few website’s online for UK or US surfers, allowing possible sources of income such as completing surveys, searching the net, clicking banners, advertising products etc… Alot of them scams, and a few you have to pay for to sign up – and that’s a sure sign that you’ll never make enough money back to cover even the sign up fee!
Unless you have a very popular website, or product to sell, and thus advertise other’s from you’re own site, it’s going to be quite hard to make alot of money online.
However, one site i’ve found for a wee bit extra income is MyHomepageFriends – http://www.myhpf.co.uk/apply001.asp?Friend=178007
Basically, you sign up, and use the search engine (which is yahoo), and for every search you make, the site makes 5p, and gives you 2p for this.. Now this probably doesn’t seem like very much! But if you’re making 50 searches a day, that’s a pound a day and then – 30 quid a month! Plus, you get 1p per search of every friend you let know about the site..
So i guess it works like this (if I’m right hehe, been calculating this myself to see how much i’m due this month)
50 searches a day – £1… Monthly: £30
You refer 10 people who make 50 searches a day (you get 10% i think) – 10p from each — another £1 a day… So that’s £30 from yourself, and £30 made from you’re referral links (great if you have a blog or a small website to advertise from, to get some referrals)… And they will pay you out once you’ve reached £20! You also get paid 5% for anyone you’re friends refer, you can check all the stats online, i’ve made 64p from my cousin alone so far in a few days hehe!
Works well and pays you by paypal/cheque/credit card (i think maybe bank account transfer too, but definitely paypal!).. It’s not a lot, but an opportunity to maybe make an extra £50-£100 a month for doing nothing other than what you probably already do in google – search the web! You can also check your balance at any time so you know how much you’ve earned and how much you’ve gained from you’re friends earnings!
Check it out, and let me know how you get on
Msg me if you want any advice about it, i’ve been a member for a while now : )

You may look into some of the PTC sites. You can earn money for viewing advertisements online and more money for advertisements your referrals’ view.
Be sure that the site is genuine. Some of the points one should consider are that the site should not ask for any registration fee, and if the site hosts forums it is further helpful. The site should also pay you when you want/keeping a low minimum payout.
This one is good too -
