The Extra Income Guide Blog

Welcome back!

Hello all, sorry about not posting for a few days, I have been very busy with new campaigns at work, etc.  I enjoy posting and felt as if I was robbing a lot of you of your time for not posting any new content.  Today I decided to talk about a few websites that I use to make money online.  We all know how to make money online and this is just a short list of some different types of sites that will help you continue to make money online.  This is just a list of a few that I am either running now, or currently working on.

1. Niche Blogs - Niche blogs are great for making money online.  You find a niche or many niches depending on what you want to write about, and monetize them in many different ways. 
2. GPT Sites - Starting your own GPT site can be very profitable as well.  To make money online with your own GPT site you will need to find someone who has either been an admin or owned one before.  They are a little tricky to learn but fun.
3. Social Websites- Create your own social website.  I currently am working on a new social networking site that should be launched by December.  I am very excited.

These are the three types of sites that I currently own or am working on to make money online.  All of these sites can be monetized in different ways.  I will be talking about monetizing these sites very soon. 

Happy Earning

Today is a really relaxing sunday, and I was just starting to work on some products for sale when It donned on me to share some ideas with everybody. Now everyone I feel has seen some sort of homemade products on the internet, let it be art, ebooks, software, templates, etc, a great way to make money online is to create a product. Now for your first product I say take a week to create it. That is what I did with my first product and I’ll go through my seven day procedure and hopefully it helps you make money online.

• Day 1 - Brainstorming - Brain Storming is the most essential part to any product.  I say take two to three hours to write down some ideas.  Now I started with some ideas of objects and writings I had seen on the net and in some novelty stores.  So i started brainstorming on what would i want to do to make money online.
• Day 2 - Quick Outline - On Day 2 I alway take an hour or two to write a quick outline of what materials I would need, if i need to type out instructions, just a general game plan on what will need to be done to make money online.
• Day 3 - Preliminary Stages - If I am writing a new ebook this is where I come up with the chapters, and make an outline of each chapter.  If I am making a product this is where I fully sketch out what will need to be done, and I start on a a mock up of what I will be producting.
• Day 4 - Creation Stage - This is where I creat the product.  I try to take a couple hours, or in my case last week a whole day, to create the product that I want to sell online.  Now I have written an ebook in the span of four hours.  I say just write it.  Dont stop just take the time to write it.
• Day 5 - Critique - On Day 5 I always get some constructive critisim on the product I have just created.  Let it be a product that needs to be proofread, or a product that needs to be inspected.  I have another pair of eyes go over the product to make sure that it is sellable.
• Day 6 - Sales Page - On day 6 I create the sales page that I want to sell the product.  Especially if it an an informational product this is where I spend a lot of time in creating a great sales page.  The sales page is the first thing a customer will see so you want it to *POP*.  You want to put a little pizazz into it to make your customers want to buy your product.
• Day 7 - Promote - Day 7 is where I promote my products.  Let it be on eBay, or on ClickBank, or any other sort of advertising, this is the most imporant step.  Without the right advertising you wont make any sales, an in not you wont make money online.  Advertising is very essential to any new product that you create.

This is what I normally do when I am going to release a new project online.  Now you may not get rich from your product but you can earn an extra income if you do sell a product online.

Good Luck and Happy Earning

To help make money online, I wanted to share a few ways that help me beat rising costs.  Now these few tips help me save around $300 to $500 dollars a month.  A few of these ways will help save money online, others help save money anywhere.  There is also a few ways to make money online, why working to save money.

1. Home Cooking vs. Fast Food - Now everyone knows that fast food is not only the heathiest thing in the world, but also very expensive.  I personally cook a meal that I know will have left overs and that way I can get two meals from one.  This is one simple way I personally save a few hundred from a month.
2. Watch the Electricity - Now watch out for the electricity eaters.  These include the computer, television, stereos, etc that have standby modes that continually drain electricity.  I recommend using power strips that can be turned on and off.  I feel this saves me around fifty dollars a month.
3. BigCrumbs.com - BigCrumbs.com saves money when purchasing items online.  You sign up for BigCrumbs.com and then purchase products online through their links and they pay you back for purchases.  Click here to read more.
4. Dealnews.com - This is a site that finds the lowest prices out there on the net for anything you may need.  The deals change daily, hourly, etc so check frequently when you are thinking of your next purchase.
5. Gas - Gas is always on the rise and we will always need to drive.  Put together a gameplan when going out that way you don’t do any unneeded driving.  The driving around thinking about which store to go to does eat up gas that right now is absurdly priced.

These are just 5 ways that I use to beat rising costs.  Please feel free to leave a comment with other cost saving ways.

Happy Earning
