how to make money at home - hidden secrets
Saturday, November 15th, 2008Type the search term how to make money at home or make money online and watch hundreds of results and check some of them out to realize the fact that most webmasters are repeating the same whole idea in different ways. If you know many things about web profits already, this story right here will give you new ideas. If you don’t. come to daddy. Let’s first agree to agree on that what i am going to tell are not only guaranteed ways on how to make money at home, i am telling you my story along with it. So when i finish this. You better be sure it works. I think what worked for someone that started from nothing until almost perfectness can be done by anyone else. So don’t just read. Act.
Give me the slap i am stupid enough.
When i first wanted to take the easy way in, i was amazingly fond of the idea that people make money by just clicking ads. Gosh i hate these days. I was illiterate and had no tiny knowledge about any other way to make money. So i just did what others do. Joined some Piad to click sites and got the slaps one after another. Every site i joined kept stealing my time away and never gave me the money. No wait, i remember one of them gave me $2. Doesn’t even equal half hour of my time at this exact moment. But i had no idea so i kept getting slapped by those systems until one day i had enough!
Back to school. The paved way to money
I started to make a search on scams to gather a list and take my revenge. But i found a pdf book through my search. Actually that was the first book i read : “money train”. It was a written interview made between two very successful marketing gurus.
( in case you don’t know what guru is : a very professional marketer or business owner that has general knowledge about everything in his own niche that can generate money. Sometimes they are even professionals in many things at a time).
Anyway, as soon as i finished the book, i kept cursing my self. What the hell was i doing in the past few weeks ?
So i was like “let’s take a different road”. Believe it or not i decided to become a guru myself. My ego allows me to think that way. I don’t know about you but this is just the way i wanted it to be. So i decided there’s no going back. If i forget about making money out of the web, i might feel sick about myself. I hate failure. So i will make failure hate me too !
And just like when a child holds on to his favorite toy, i got stuck to the idea that i have to learn everything about how to make money at my very own home PC screen. General knowledge might push me forward. So i opened google and dropped my favorite search code :
“intitle:”make money online” filetype:pdf” without right and left quotes.
Then the fun part started. Tens of e-books came up before my face and i kept downloading them. I read most of them and deleted the slight 14-20 page ones because they were short sales reports not actually books. Few days later, i managed to get some e-books that were published for sale. Did i buy them ? no, i can say i had my tweaks. So i Learned SEO,several marketing secrets,newsletters which i didn’t use yet,reselling,affiliate programs and many other perfect ways to make money. Even google adsense, i had to know every tiny tip about it. Am i too smart ? no, those books are. so the first secret to start with was,
E-books.E-books.E-books.

The unrevealed treasure
That’s why i give my members e-books as incentives and you can say, as a start. I had to spend much time to gather the most important books concerning how to make money on the web. And i send them those books proudly because i always assume they are smart enough to appreciate how perfect it is to learn something that a whole book is just dedicated for.
I even give them those books that we were supposed to pay for but didn’t. I don’t know if they even read them or not. But i know very well that if anyone has a tiny brain, he/she will take advantage of every information they get their hands on. It’s money talk not just a chitchat!
That’s how i started. By learning. Not by surfing sites and blogs to hear from this and that. Most of them just give some foggy tips about a certain branch just to get traffic and rank high in search engines. I took the shortcut, taking the advice from professionals was the right step towards real profits. One day, i sent the author of one of these books telling him that his book helped me a lot. And to my surprise he sent me back in less than two hours : “check this one out too. you might make good use of it” and here comes the happy shock, i make a search on google about the book he sent me just to know if it’s old or what before i read it. And boooom , the book was for sale at $39 on clickbank for God sake!
The author gave me his book for FREE ? gorgeous, another book that i didn’t have to pay for. And somehow i always feel those kind of books are more precious than free downloadable ones. When you have things - that you had to pay for - Free, you really enjoy them more. Human freebie loving nature. So i kept reading the whole book then started to go through a new phase.
My first slap to the web. can get that cash
Now enough. I have read enough already. i can’t just keep reading. Especially when the last book had this sentence highlighted : “read and implement at the same time”.
Okay i really have to do something about all that i learned, where shall i start ? yes, let’s go for the sweetheart, Google .
I grabbed my blog and kept shaking it with new posts, a week later went to google adsense and put up ads. As far as i can remember my first day was $2 of profit. That was wow at first because month before i would earn those $2 in Paid to click sites after 3 weeks or something. Misery! So that immediate minor progress encouraged me more.
Kiss google for the money
I started to notice that every time i make a new post i get more traffic and make more money. So i kept posting and my bog loved me more and brought me more money day by day. Or shall i say, google did. But the problem was that i needed faster growth what is delaying me ? i am greedy, i want to be a guru. Gurus act fast.
So what’s wrong now ? oops,i didn’t even apply what i have learned, i remembered one of my books. So i was like : “wait a minute. This guy was talking about the layout and the color of your ads and how they will highly affect your revenue”. So i re-designed my ads well, removed their borders, made their background the same as my background and changed their text color to match my own blog links color.
Then turned my attention to another mission, optimize the blog itself from the beginning to rank well ever after! so i started to make all the needed editing on HTML codes and keywords. Changed the title,keywords,description and optimized the content to match the best targeted keywords. Then from the very first day after finishing that job, i got my google kiss back. Google ranked me for 5 keyword phrases in the first page. of-course they were not competitive enough. But they drove me a good traffic per day. Exactly what happened is, people come, read my post, click ads and leave happily! how perfect.
Was google adsense enough ? hell no. I was getting down and dirty to more and more. did i tell you how many ways i figured out through reading ? i will.
Can you sell this ? hell yeah!
I really love the word “affiliate”. It means money to me wherever i hear it or read it. And that’s how it went. I went to clickbank and chose the best new promising product in there as a start so i can be the first to review it. You have to acquire a vision whether a product is going to die young or make a killing later by the way. It’s not something like a sixth sense but, it needs a good mindset. So i picked up the product hop link that i want to review. And when people started to know about it, i dropped the first selling bomb. i know many affiliates don’t do that. That makes me sure that most of them rarely or never read books. Here is the whole thing, the merchant publishes his product on clickbank. And it takes sometime until the merchant himself create a good advertising campaign to his product. And when many people hear about it. They start searching it : “(name of the product) + review” that’s how they find my “only” review in the very #1 rank. Mission complete! The best benefit here is less of torture. While everyone else struggles for a rank on a famous product review, you are standing like king waiting for your merchant to finish populating his product. And even then you may sell through your review more than he gets from his pitch page. Just choose a perfect future promising product before applying this method. More on affiliate money tricks will be discussed later in another episode of how to make money at home.
Why do you keep chasing my blog ?
Did i say chasing ? yes and i mean “customers” chasing my blog. Surprise ? not really. It’s when i go for amazon and select the most searched products and have their photos and links on my blog to be ready for sale through me. Another brilliant affiliate program amazon is. So how do they chase me ?
i join as many blog communities and networks as i can. Some of them keep feed on every single post i make. And just right here where the money game starts. I make a page for amazon products. Then some of the blog networks records this pages as soon as i publish it on my blog. Blog networks consider them as new posts while the truth is that they are small stores on your blog. Blog networks members read my post name : “buy phentermine online without a prescription”, and if any of them are fat and desperately need to lose weight, They come to me through my post link on the network to just check the so-called “post” out. They click on the product image to read more about it. That’s when it sends them to amazon order page. My job is done. Here comes amazon’s job, the order page gives them fill information and testimonials in addition to incentives and discounts that make their head spin. They buy. I have my commission. Thank you very much. Any more effort from my side ? no. imagine how you can duplicate such earnings if you subscribe to more than one network.
And this was just the beginning.
