how to make money online, even as a beginner

don't listen to the gurus or experts

DON'T LISTEN TO THE GURUS. 

They will tell you that all you have to do is go to Clickbank, start an Amazon store, or buy their course. 

I am not saying that you shouldn't gather some tips and knowledge from those who have experience or sound strategies. 

But, you really have to learn to find out what it takes for yourself instead and what works for you. 

You can't depend on a guru to tell you what works, you have to find out for yourself. 

It's not as easy to live the internet lifestyle, as some of the gurus make it sound. 

But the internet has made making money easier than ever. 

Even if you are new or have never made any money online, there is a golden opportunity for you to be successful. 

Here are 5 steps that will allow you to make money online, even as a beginner. 

5 steps to make money online, even if you are a beginner

I will list the steps below but you can check out the video if you would like below. 

The video is from the Share Of Money YouTube Channel. 

Below at the steps that will help you to make money online in 2020, even as a beginner. 

1) join an affiliate program or offer

When choosing an affiliate program or offer, you want to make sure you pick something that you can identify with. 

If you pick a program because it can make the most money or is the most popular, you won't be as dedicated to promoting it and that will show within your promotion. 

Pick a product that is within a niche that you care about or have interest in. 

Here are a few affiliate programs that I am a part of. (Click the link to learn more.)

ENJEO - Make commissions from referrals or from affiliate products. (US based only)

EASY 5 NOW - Make $5 commissions over and over again from referrals GPay, CoinPayments, Cash App, and Skrill. . 

$5 CASH COW - Earn $5 commissions over and over again from referrals to your PayPal or Stripe account. 

$25 DOLLAR CASH MACHINE - $25 commissions for each referral over and over to your PayPal or Stripe Account. 

BEST EASY WORK - Free affiliate program, upgrade to earn bigger commissions.  (Worldwide Opportunity)

MAKE MONEY EVEN - Platform that has training for internet marketers that offers referral commissions. 

Also, you can register free for a site like Clickbank or become an affiliate with EBay or Amazon to earn commissions as well. 

There are tons of affiliate offers to choose from. 
​
Don't join too many at one time as it can all be overwhelming. 

2) find a traffic source

Just as each business needs customers, you need traffic or visitors to your offer. 

If you are starting out, don't worry about paid ads because you can get your start on free social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linked In, Pinterest, or even Snap Chat. 

Also, you can create a free blog from Weebly or Wix to have a place where you can send visitors to as well. 

But, you may want to consider doing videos on YouTube, since people are more likely to watch a video than to read a blog post. 

Make sure to master your traffic sources. 

Don't use them all but master a few and then move slowly to promoting on another platform. 

3) give people an incentive to sign up with you

NEVER EVER POST YOUR LINK DIRECTLY!

It comes off as spammy and lazy. 

You want to make sure that you give people something of value. 

Create a landing page that solves an issue or asks a question to generate curiosity. 

For instance, you can make a video review about your affiliate program or offer. 

Or you can create a blog post around your affiliate offer and program. 

Create that video or blog post, then share it over social media. 

Be sure to put your link in the content but make sure that you are teaching people something and that you are filling a need. 

As an example, I now offer my FREE E-Book as a way to promote my affiliate offers and services. 

You will see an example below. 

Click the image to see the landing page. 

I used the FREE Wix website landing page template to create that and you can do the same. 

​Find different ways to make your offer interesting at all. 

Put yourself in the visitors' spot and ask yourself would you sign up for the offer. 

4) send traffic to that offer

Find a way to send people to that video, landing page, or blog post. 

Link your social media profile to your website or YouTube channel. 

Tweet out your latest blog post. 

Make a video with a great thumbnail and generate a buzz. 

Create an Instagram post that people will want to click on. 

Develop a Pinterest Pin that sounds exciting. 

Traffic exchanges, emailing, free ad sites will help as well. 

You want to show payment proof or some kind of validation that your program or offer is worth signing up for. 

5) MONETIZE AND FIND A WAY TO SCALE

Once your traffic starts converting into referrals and sales, find a way to generate more out of it. 

If you have used a free blog, get a domain name with hosting and make it better. 

Use email autoresponders and automated software to make it easy to reach out to or respond to perspective customers. 

Invest in your business with paid ads and traffic to get more customers. 

Learn how you can develop a team to help and work with you. 

If your offer or program allows you to upgrade, be sure to do it so that you can earn even bigger commissions. 

It's all about growing your online business so that you can make passive income. 

Passive income is more automated which means you can have more time for other things outside of your business or program. 

conclusion

So, those are the steps that you can take to make money online in 2020, even if you are a beginner. 

But the key is to get started. 

Find your niche, check out the program, and then you get started. 

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step and making money online is not much different. 

So, the key is getting started and keep going, even if you are not successful at first. 

Success will come in time but the key is to start.
