How to Make Money Working Online From Home

I will be using these terms when referring to those of us who work from home using the internet. 

Content provider - a person who provides solutions to the burning questions people search for online. Content providers do this by using articles, blogs, and products generated in advance all while anticipating the needs of others. You know, the many time's everyone on the planet thinks, "Google It"  You want to be the person providing the answer, the content provider.

It is no secret that Google is king and for good reason. I have been doing this for 21 years now and have experienced a lot of ups and downs. It is through trial and error that I have learned what works and what does not. Google is the go-to search engine most online users depend on and therefore the one to understand and use to target your audience. 

Online Marketers - answers the burning questions people search for online by writing articles detailing the question and solution(s). It is our job to anticipate these questions in advance, provide readers with facts, products, and solutions available and ready when the search engines receive inquiries. This is where the revenue sharing sites come into play, these sites are the resource by which you create, present, and deliver your content to the world. More on revenue sharing sites later.

Providers and Marketers do the same thing, the reference words are mere terms used to describe this sort of profession. 

NOTE: Third-party reviews are highly sought after, this is you, the writer, creating a written review about products and services for others interested in the truth about products from real people who have purchased and put it to the test.  Youtube videos can be created and used for this purpose and then linked back to your written material.

After proving yourself as such a provider people will depend on you for the truth and thus look to you to direct them to quality services and goods. Reputation is EVERYTHING! Consistency builds reputation!

Your trademark should include a name and an image, two crucial tools used online to promote you and your business model and area of interest.

Image or Picture of you!  I have used the same image or picture of myself on every account I have ever built around the web. Why, it is my trademark, the very image ingrained in my follower's brains and those who will become my followers. People see my image on an article, blog, or post anywhere around the net and quickly identify me as a trusted resource, someone they have come to know. Remember this, it is important, you cannot be known if you keep changing. 

Many change their image in an attempt or need to remain current, this is not what happens rather it causes you to be lost in the crowd.

A computer with internet access is a must in order to earn money working from home. While some gurus claim you can work without a computer but instead use free access to computers and the internet at your local library, this is not realistic. This job requires the time needed to pay attention to detail, build and maintain a money-making online presence, and the ability to be on the ready to address your audience's needs in a timely manner.  Customer needs cannot be met as effectively spending limited time at the library.  

Amazon has grown extensively since I first began working from my home, online, with my computer and internet access over 16 years ago.  I signed up with Amazon as an affiliate from the beginning of my work from the home journey and have not once encountered a bad, difficult, or disappointing experience with Amazon.  Much like Google, Amazon is my best most trusted work associate.  I will explain the nuts and bolts of how you actually get paid from these and other programs later in this tutorial. 

There are several money-making opportunities Amazon offers for those working from home. My advice, take it slow and or go at your own comfortable pace.  Once you gain experience you will gain confidence allowing you to branch out and do more. 

It is always better to learn to do one thing well before attempting other new ventures. 

Multiple new challenges will overwhelm you. This is the reason so many fail or quit before ever getting started. Stay the course and focus on what you learn. Any day you learn a new skill regardless of how big or small it is a good day and should be celebrated. 

Follow this basic guide until you become good at it, build a respectable internet presence then consider branching out if you feel it's right for you. I personally have never done anything more, at Amazon, than being an Amazon affiliate, it has proven to be very rewarding and more than enough for me. 

Before attempting to work with Google you must first understand their terms of service, criteria, and the basic function of AdSense. There is a link in the settings portion of my favorite revenue sharing site that provides you with the means to apply for Google AdSense, yes there is an application process.

I know what your thinking, "but I don't have a website."

This is another reason you need to join a revenue sharing website like the one I built this page on, more on that in a minute.  

Once you have established 10 good articles, following the steps I have outlined you may use the revenue sharing site, that hosts your work, as your website submission. 

If you are serious about working from home join me at my favorite revenue sharing site here and welcome to the family.

Simply tap the green banner "join us" below.  Friend me by clicking the heart on my profile page and message me with any questions or just to introduce yourself. 

After establishing the above-mentioned criteria you may then apply for Google AdSense.  I am providing a very good article below to help you best understand the process before you begin the application process. This article is written by a trusted writer friend of mine. 

1. You will need a laptop, computer, and access to the internet.
2. Maintain both a word file and hard copy in a notebook, or the like, with notes pertaining to your online business. This is where you will keep all passwords and usernames for quick reference until you memorize them.  Use the same user name for all accounts but passwords should be different, unique, and hard to hack.
3. Become an Amazon Affiliate
4. Set up a PayPal Account
5. Join a Revenue Sharing Site
6. Learn by reading content provided by the mentor
7. Write 10 good related articles, to be approved by the site, in order to establish your content. Note: the more you write, the more you grow, learn, and earn.

Once you have built a good foundation there are various routines you must develop until habitual. These habits will produce article links to your goods and services rather than a road out there on the inter-web. The more you work these tools the bigger your road grows until one day a highway and then a superhighway.  Ask yourself which gets more traffic, yes a superhighway. 

Sharing the links or URLs to your work puts them out there where more people can view, share, and keep them as a go-to resource for helpful or useful information.

You cannot write a page and forget about it.  You must share it on Pinterest, Twitter, Google+, Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, and other Blogs such as Blogger.  This is a how-to blog with a blogger tutorial.

Everything you create online can be linked together making a smoother more unified network or superhighway with no detours.  For example, link all your social media to your profile page here at Wizzley to create an internet road to YOUR town. 

Every link to everything you write can be shared on Facebook, Twitter, google+, Linkedin, Instagram, and other blogs or revenue sites that offer your products.

If you make merchandise and sell it on Zazzle, Etsy, DaWanda, Bonanza, Zibbet, iCraft or other, etc. you can write about that here with a how to make your product(s) tutorial.  Link your article to said products, circle backlinking products to articles, this way each advertises for the other expanding your overall exposure. This gives you more traffic to the products you sell. 

WARNING - Any and all articles you write here specific to your products must be useful, detailed information.  You simply cannot write spammy sales articles for the sole purpose of sales, that are in violation of the TOS or terms of service on EVERY site.  Plus, readers see through that and they don't like it at all. Scams are a dime a dozen, you do not want to come across as such.

I have known Pam aka Dustytoes for a very long time and during all this time she has always been helpful, kind, humble, and supportive. I trust her, Dustytoes is a trusted online content provider in my book. 

dustytoes is also a success on Zazzle. She is the perfect example of how you should share your products on this revenue sharing site and succeed at the sales site.  Without further ado, I provide you with some examples of her work and helpful tutorials on how to get started and succeed at Zazzle.
