Will This Idea Work?

[xseo]

For real ..to make money online you need work more that 2 hours/day...

[ChasingtheDream]

I made my first sale!

I'm really thrilled and although I've only made just over $14, it's a start. I'm actually in profit because apart from time, I haven't had to make an outlays so that's really good. I am stepping this up now because even though I have been a bit lazy, I made some cash so I know this can work for me even if it won't be big money yet. I'm going to keep anything I earn banked until I have money for hosting and domains and will get some minisites built for the next step up.

I know 2 hours every day isn't much but it is all I can do at the moment. It might take me a year but I am making some money now and I can put more time to it as things grow. I'm just so excited. Yay for me!

Where can I find out about the automated software? That might be worth blowing my earnings on.

So was it your own product or affiliate com?

[ChasingtheDream]

It's an affiliate product for muscle building. I don't really know how to make my own products but from what I can make out it seems to be that most products are either books or videos or something else that can be downloaded. I still don't really understand how it works but when I registered for the product I was given a code and I just paste that code into my posts on Yahoo Answers when I answer certain questions. It must work because I got an email saying a sale had been made and the money is in my account already. I found the product on a thing called clickbank which has lots of other stuff I could sell so I might try some more now I know it works.

hmm its in your clickbank account right not your actual account? Cause clinkbank products have the highest returned rate... And they get 60 days to return the product if they dont like it. This is why i started developing products 3-4 years ago. Clickbank doesnt control me...

Fingers crossed but i got excited too on my first few sales then boom... nothing.

[ChasingtheDream]

Yes it's in my clickbank account not my bank account. I read a report about clickbank and it showed you how to pick products with low return rates and that's what I have done and I really hope I don't have to refund anything but I suppose if I do then it's just part of the work and I'll eventually find better products to sell. The good thing is that I am learning and as it stands this is my first profitable campaign so it's not too bad. You have to start somewhere I guess.



I read on here about something called payspree but it doesn't have as many products to sell and I have looked at affiliate products where you get a code direct from the person who is selling it and they pay you by paypal but I think you need a website for it and I haven't got one yet. Should I just find a product and make a site around it? How much will that cost?

ChasingtheDream:

I know that you're obviously trying to absorb masses of information at the moment but from reading your first posts to where you are now, it's very clear that you are starting to come to grips with things. That's brilliant.

I know that it's hard when you first start out and don't have much money to spare but this is an ideal time for you to create your own product. Remember that your product doesn't have to be a money-making report or anything like that. If you have an interest in muscle building or weights, and I'm guessing you do if you're plugging affiliate products in that niche already, come up with something yourself. Get the key facts together and outsource your results and get somebody to write a report on your behalf. Save as a .pdf and use WF, the Digital Point Forum or Fiverr to get your cover artwork done.

Once your product is ready, get it out there and don't just stick to Yahoo Answers. There are hundreds of places where your potential customers hang out online. Go find them. You actually have a great opportunity to do something here because you sound as keen as mustard. Don't wait, or you might go off the idea. Use your time wisely now, and you'll benefit at a later stage.

Been reading up on business ideas for newbies and come across this one. Does it sound like a good idea or is it just more hype?

Open a Yahoo Answers Account > Begin answering questions to reach 250 points and go to Level 2 > Once Level 2 is reached, you are allowed to post links
Choose preferred niche category and answer questions with links to affiliate products that can solve problems for question answers. This can be done up to 40 times a day on Level 2 > Estimated earnings $70+ a day

Sounds good in theory and I know Yahoo Answers does well in search engines. I could do this without breaking into my budget and build up my money for bigger things at a later stage. I know it's going to be costing nothing but time but will I be wasting my time or can I make some money from this idea?

Yes, sounds like a good idea ...let me give it a try and see if I can make money with it.

I've continued with this on a fairly casual basis and to be honest, I've had no success at all apart from the sale I mentioned earlier. I'm convinced that the idea is OK in theory, but there are much better ways to promote products than this. I've decided to take the same product and work it alongside similar products on my own website (which is being built in my spare time).

If you try this yourself, let me know how it goes. It might just be that I'm doing it slightly wrong and that you will have better ideas on how to be successful.

If you use Yahoo Answers in the categories related to specific websites that you can build, you can redirect people to the site to answer their questions, and add them to your Adsense, Clickbank, Amazon and others on his campaign website, you can put directly in front.
