Make Money Online From Scratch
408 words | Last Updated: April 8, 2008 |
A lot of people go on the internet, trying to figure out how to make a living online. In some cases, they might not have any money to begin with, and they often hit the wall that says: "You need to spend money to make money."
Or perhaps they did have some money at the start, but lost it after spending hundreds of dollars on ebooks that promised a flood of passive income, which brings us back to the point when someone has no money, but wants to earn some online.
Well, here's the solution...
Griz Brears publishes numerous lengthy posts in his make money online blog for beginners. As you can see, he uses free web hosting. He didn't even purchase a domain name.
It's not completely free, though. True, you won't shell out any money (I mean, aside from paying for your internet connection), but be prepared to spend time writing and doing a bit of research. As your AdSense earnings grow, you can reinvest those funds and buy tools that will help you determine what topics to write about.
Again, you'll find that in the blog of Griz, where he also reveals what software he uses.
Like most businesses, there is a risk to his particular business model. It's like building a house on land which you don't own. Although he does own his content, it sits on the Blogspot or Blogger land which Google owns.
Are you willing to spend a lot of time writing, and risk losing that site one day? I'm not saying you will lose that blog. Afterall, I've seen others start with a Blogger blog, and then later on graduated to their own non-free site after they started to earn.
The key question is this: are you willing to put in the time with that free site of yours?
But as long as it lasts, and if your content is good enough to rank high in the search engines, then that's one way of earning dollars from the internet. It helps to save your content, so just in case the unthinkable happens, your writings will not be lost.
There are many ways to make money from the web, but if don't have any cash right now then head on over to the site of Griz and get a truckload (or shipload) of ideas which you can implement and act on right away.

Hi Manuel,
This is the first time I've visited you're site and it is awesome! Great information and a very enjoyable layout. And it is very true. If you don't own the property you're building on you'll never really be in control of your business. Keep up the good work.
Eric
[From Manuel] Thanks, Eric!
The hardest part is getting something going to begin with, but once you start making some profits you can reinvest it into your business in order to increase your income and then rinse and repeat.
Hi, Manuel!
Your site is great for newbie bloggers and for those who want to venture into problogging and making money online. I've also seen some of your YouTube vlogs, and thanks for promoting our language.
By the way, are you familiar with emailcashpro? Any thoughts?
Thanks and keep it up!
Thanks, Badong! I've just started with EmailCashPro. Stay tuned for the blog post...
