I wrote a Profiting Online eBook and it is Free

December 4th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

I decided to write an eBook about Profiting Online. It took a while and is 40 pages, meant to be an easy read and instructional. Why an eBook and not just posts on a site? While blogs are a great tool to easily publish information, they typically list the posts and articles in order of the most recent to the oldest, which does not convey information in a step by step instructional method.

Making Money Online eBook
I wrote this book for many reasons. Online technology, websites, services, tools, social media tools, social media sites, however you want to categorize the latest site or service you have seen changes almost daily. It can seem overwhelming. However if you peel the layers off of any web product or service and look at the business model, how they make money, they are all very similar.

Whether you are starting from scratch and do not have your own site, or have an existing site and looking or new marketing methods or ways to make money online, I hope you find this very useful.

Background
You will see from my background that I have been involved with online businesses in many ways, from starting my own online businesses to assisting others. I spend a lot of time merely analyzing business models and I have learned, as will you, that every business needs to make money, period. I have heard many tell me about the great “idea” that they have, many of which are amazing, however the bottom line is the answer to the question “how are you going to make money?”.

If you have ever walked through and viewed the paper copies of patents in the Patent & Trademark Office you will be amazed at what you see and many times wonder “why is that not being marketed or sold today?” and in many cases the answer is that there is either no demand or it cannot be made and sold for a profit. However, all of them are very cool and amazing, but if they cannot make money they will typically not see the light of day. Let’s discuss money making.

How Online Businesses Make Money
There are two ways to make money with online businesses, either make money as part of your business model or your model is to build an amazing technology and hope to sell it to another business that will either monetize it or provide it for free as a value added service. I will not be discussing the “I will build this cool thing and then sell it later” approach, which is valid but not for discussion here.

In many ways this book, these instructions and explanations, may seem simplified however I have chosen to touch on every aspect from start to finish with step by step instructions so anyone can set up a site, promote it, drive traffic to it and generate income.

The other approach I could of taken would have been to go in depth into one area, however I would prefer to get you started and then you may use many of the online sites to explore and learn more about any one particular topic in detail.

The book includes the following topics:

Types of Revenue
Money Making Online Now - the Best Programs
Setting up Your Site - How to Get Setup Quickly
Maintaing Your Site - What to Write About
Online Marketing - How to Obtain Visitors
Advertising and Free Traffic
Statistics - How are You Doing
Revenue and more….
