Work Just A Few Hours And Begin Making Money On Internet

While working full-time for a large corporate company I decided to start my own internet business, on a part-time basis.I was concerned the company I was working for was going to downsize, make people redundant and I wanted my own ‘get out’ plan. I thought if I start my own business part-time, that’s something I can concentrate on if I were to be made redundant.

I was in a senior position in the company and I worked long hours. But that didn’t stop me putting in many hours each week to make my Internet business take off.

I would listen to or read about Internet strategies while travelling to and from work.

I would work in the evenings.

I would work at weekends.

My wife gave me 100% support.

I started to look at Affiliate Marketing and blogging to make a blog income. Everyone was blogging!

Affiliate Marketing is where you sell someone else’s product or service and earn a percentage of the sale price. The percentage ranges from 5% to 100%.

You might be thinking that you have to sell a lot of other peoples products to make it worth your while. This might be true. It was for me. I was working all the hours I possibly could and still making no income – well hardly anything to write about. I dare not work out what my hourly rate was. I bet it was less than $1.

No-one works for less than $1, do they?

But I kept reading it takes a while before you start earning a decent income via the Internet. You have got to stick with it. I was enjoying myself and was determined, so I carried on. I got more experience.

Remember I was only doing this part-time. It was a slow progress.

But, here I was earning Affiliate Marketing commissions (albeit quite small) and I still had the comfort and security of my main full-time role.

You could do exactly the same.

Just find a few hours each week and and get started. You could start earning a little extra while learning a new skill. It could be the start of your ‘get out of the 9-5′ plan.
And, think, no traveling. You can do this within the comfort of your own home.

I am not saying you will become rich. I am not saying it’s easy.

Unlike some of those adverts you see.

For example, “Follow my steps, earn $100k a month for 2 hours work a day all for just $97″.

If someone could guarantee and show me how to do that, I’ll gladly give them a $500k bonus. We all would wouldn’t we?

So as I say, you are not going to become rich, but you could earn a little extra to pay a bill or two.

How do you start? Set yourself some goals. How many hours could you work each week? How much extra, realistically, would you like to earn?

Set up one website and market one product per month.

Add valid and interesting content to your site, get the word out about your site, get your site ranked well in the search engines and that one website / product may make you affiliate marketing commissions that might surprise you.

The next month start another Affiliate Marketing campaign.

Your can either add another similar affiliated product to your blog or start a totally new affiliate campaign in a different niche with a new blog and new product.

Just imagine, within six months, you could be promoting and selling 6 different products, on 6 different blogs and all providing you with a nice blog income.

Now, let me be honest and straight…your first or second product may not sell very well, but you have to keep on going.

Many individuals give up.

But it’s not uncommon for hard working Internet Marketers to start out with one blog and expand to several more very quickly, with some people actually owning dozens of blogs, each focused on a specific niche and type of product. This approach can earn you a nice big blog income.

And, of course, the more you earn, the more you can invest back into growing your Affiliate Marketing commissions. That may generate more visitors to your sites, more commissions and it can becomes a nice extra income.

So where do you go to find products to promote and sell.

I started off at ClickBank.

You sign-up, you choose your product to promote, you write a review of the product and add the link to your site. Whenever you sell something, ClickBank does the rest. Two weeks later you get a check with your sales commissions. ClickBank do take a small commission but it’s worth it. Everything is automatic and completed for you.

Another great thing with ClickBank is that you can track statistics like how many people purchased, who has purchased and your commissions.

That way you can see if a product is selling or not. If not, simply move on and start a new campaign with a different product and blog.

You are not going to become rich but if you simply want a little extra cash each month, try working from home with Affiliate Marketing.
