I’ve noticed from reading other blogs, readers seem to enjoy learning how other sites make money.
So I’ve developed a “Top 7″ list of my top income generators based on nothing more than monthly income earned.
Note: This list is from all my sites combined.
—————-
1. Domain and Web Hosting Reselling
This program is a great example of why you should look for affiliate or reseller programs in your niche that pay residual commissions.
If my site got wiped out today, I would still be able to live off the residual income I’ve generated since joining this program in 2002.
If you have a site that targets future Webmasters/Bloggers, reselling domains and web hosting is a great way to build a long-term income that continues to grow and grow.
This is also a great idea if you know people in your personal life who need websites. You can just send them to your reseller store and earn commissions on their hosting and domain fees.
As a reseller, you receive your own customizable website that allows you to set your prices and determine your profit. The parent company handles all the customer and technical support, so all you do is promote your own reseller store.
It would be hard for any other affiliate program to bump this from the #1 spot because of the residual income.
Learn more about how you can earn from reselling domains and hosting.
2. SiteSell
I’ve been receiving checks from SiteSell’s affiliate program since 1999, but nothing like the ones I started getting when I bought Site Build It! and displayed my own success story.
(See the post about my February 2008 check)
This was my biggest lesson in the importance of knowing and actually using products you refer from your site.
SiteSell’s affiliate program pays a generous $75 per Site Build It! sale, plus residuals on all yearly renewals. I really wish more affiliate programs would put the same amount of time and energy SiteSell does into helping affiliates.
I’ve never known another company to offer so many tools to help their affiliates make sales. From videos with your affiliate links embedded in them to over 60 audience-relevant landing pages, this program has it all.
3. Affiliate Networks (CJ.com, ShareASale.com, etc.)
I promote a variety of products that I find on some of the larger affiliate networks. From web software, web hosting, HTML editors, to anything I can find that’s useful and related to my audience.
Belonging to an affiliate network has its advantages…
1) If you’re looking for a specific product to promote, you can do a search to see if there are any relevant affiliate programs that offer the product.
2) You can join multiple programs with a few mouse clicks.
3) All of your earnings are tracked in one place, so you have one-stop reporting instead of multiple affiliate account logins.
The downside is that many companies who run their affiliate programs through large networks tend to have sub-par customer support.
There have been many occasions where I’ve sent an email to a company I’m affiliated with through CJ and never received a response. Companies that run their own in-house affiliate programs seem to have better customer support over all.
Nevertheless, large affiliate networks are definitely worth exploring, particularly if you’re looking for a specific product to promote on your site or blog.
4. AdSense
I hate using the term “easy money”, but if you have enough traffic, AdSense has got to be one of the easiest ways to generate an income from your site or blog.
AdSense performs much better on my sites not targeted to Webmasters and Bloggers – which is a big reason why you don’t see many AdSense units on this blog.
Bloggers and Webmasters tend to be immune to Google ads so they ignore them. However on my fitness site, my click-thru ratio is a bit higher.
Even though my main site, 2CreateAWebSite.com targets Webmasters/Bloggers, it does OK with AdSense because it gets enough traffic to make displaying the ads worthwhile.
Watch a video about my record Google AdSense Earnings…
5. Sales of My Own Products
When setting out to make money online, your ultimate goal should be to sell your own product. Today I have three digital products I sell:
1) Easy Starter (CSS) Templates – customizable templates for static HTML websites
2) WP Starter Guide – WordPress tutorial for beginners
3) Niche Website Success – a very detailed, practical guide to making money with a content niche website
6. ClickBank
With ClickBank, you really have to feel it out and see what works for you. Even though it’s on my Top 7 list, I must admit there is a lot of garbage on ClickBank.
Many of the eBooks you can sell are a bunch of recycled facts you can find anywhere on the Web.
They are usually promoted by an over-hyped landing page with a loud sales pitch that promises you to either get rich quick, lose weight tomorrow, or get out of debt in seconds.
However, if you really comb through the ClickBank marketplace, you can find some winners. I was able to find a few good e-books to promote that convert very well on my sites.
The great thing about ClickBank is that the commissions are extremely high since product development and delivery costs are low. You could earn up to $75 on certain products in their marketplace.
Here’s a video where I show my Clickbank earnings and how I promote it.
7. Ad Sales
I sell ads on my static website, 2 Create a Website. I use Ad Peeps to manage the ads. I used to sell ads here but I wasn’t happy with the click-through rates (traffic is much lower here than on my static site), so I discontinued ad sales here.
I used to use AdBrite, but there was a glitch with their system and my ads stopped displaying properly. It was good to get rid of them anyway because now I don’t have to share my revenue with anyone except PayPal. (They take a very small percentage.)
————————-
These aren’t the only programs I earn money from, but these are the highest paying by far. The rest of my income comes from a collection of other affiliate programs.
This post was not created to encourage you to join all these programs. Quite frankly, if your site does not target the same people and does not have the same kind of traffic, your income will be drastically less than mine.
But hopefully this shows you what is possible if you build a website that allows you to become the “expert” in your niche, and you recommend quality products that you use and are relevant to your audience. You can apply this strategy to any niche.
If you’d like to learn more about how to make money with affiliate programs, AdSense and more, check out my book Niche Website Success.
Hi, my name is 
The idea of buying your own domain for your Myspace page and joining an affiliate program to sell to friends is a splendid idea! Just need to make more friends.
Can you do that with Wild West Domains?
Sure, you would just promote your WWD affiliate URL to your friends and when they buy their domains from your store they would just set it up to redirect to their MySpace pages.
Hei Lisa.
I have made a blog: http://tjenepengerpainternett.blogg.no/
where I an promoting a great product. It is the new big thing in satelite Tv on your PC. Check it out and say what you think about it. Greetings from one of your biggest fans Sindre:)
Thank you for giving top 7 tips about the internet marketing and how to gain the more money from the internet marketing.
When I read how you did it on another article of yours and was like why didn’t I think of that lol?;) Need more friends though.
I had ruled Amazon out as an affiliate because of the low commission, but I may try it out on a few pages where I recommend books. I’m considering another book seller as well, but Amazon has more brand recognition than the other one. I’ll have to think on it a bit.
Thank you for sharing your top money makers!
Thanks for sharing the great info. I’d heard so many people knock Amazon, but you’re right it never hurts to diversify. I didn’t know about the widgets. I will be investigating all of these in due time:)
I too am an SBI lover. I am building and developing my site and growing it on a daily basis. It makes me a little money on adsense, but I haven’t optimized it fully yet.
I am not having the same success as Lisa with the SBI affiliate scheme. I discovered another easier way to get a profitable website up and running easily. It is Niches In A Box. I have made reference to it on my website. It is fully built and ready to market. I have also discovered a way to get new websites indexed in Google within 24 hours.
I think success on the internet has to be built up over time. There is no such thing as get-rich-quick!
Thanks for the information. I like to join programs I believe in some way. I was a long time Amazon customer before I decided to join their program. I have researched the Site Sell program extensively, and really feel it has some great attributes. I think when you relate to the affiliate programs you choose to join, it’s easier to genuinely promote them.
Thank you, this article is very helpful for me as a beginner, as I don’t know much about the whole picture.
For a beginner it is hard to get some sort of orientation and ideas about things that can be done in a website. I was very confused when i started, but now everything seems to fall in it’s right place.(mentally)
thanks
I like your writing without the technical jargon some advice givers online usually do. I understand the advice you give so now I can go think about it and decide what to do next.
Hi Lisa (Addsense) ….i forgott to write the name of the afiliated program.
It was quite great reading your ideas and as a free style writer i think i have a clue now on how to get things around
Nice post. I agree with you not using adsense to target webmasters and bloggers. All of them knows that if they click on the ad, the site owner earns.
thank you lisa , to your informations i haven’t read or seen your vedios but i willdo it , cause i think you are right cause you have many people watching you !!!!
and i think to make some deals with you soon
w3arab team.
Hi Lisa, i need your help, one if i signup with ultimatedomainreseller will i have the same page as of the above site to promote. i know u own this very domain and set the price yourself. so i want to be sure that if i signup under this very domain can i have something the same where i can also put the price and sell out.
Hi Riches,
Yes you can. If you sign up with that link you can resell domain names and hosting just like me.
thank you lisa for great work you are doing.
Hey lisa, just wanted to let you know that you are awesome!!!! There are not many people out there who take the time to do what you have done with the videos. You are offering such good advice, I have even given it some thought, “What am I doing” thats what I have been telling myself, I am starting to learn a lot off of you.
Thanks for all the great info.
hi,
Excellent work
What about TextLinksAds?
Yoyo,
They would probably be 8th on my list.
I have reade many “old” articles saying that using TextLiksAds result in a Google penalization, is it true?
I am a text link ads publisher so I don’t advertise using Text Link Ads. I allow people to advertise on my site through TLA. I personally think if you buy one link it’s not going to hurt you but if you purchase hundreds of text link ads then I could see Google ignoring those links from an SEO perspective.
how to make money with clickbank if i am in outside of US?
No problem – I live in the South Pacific and I use ClickBank. I just have it in my currency – there’s an option to tell them where you are. There’s not many countries that it doesn’t support. BUT you have to make sure that the product you’re promoting can be sold in your country – again not a huge issue as ClickBank handles the sales for you.
Lisa, this is a dynamite list.
Word of caution to all readers:
Do NOT try selling a product or join an affiliate program because “everybody else” is doing it to make money.
Do your research to find the products that fit you as Lisa said, because if you don’t, you’ll just end up burning yourself out stressing trying to sell 20 products at a time.
I sell no more than 10, but they are ALL specifically target to my niche these are products and affiliate programs I’ve tested and tried out myself.
– Josef Benjamin –
Lisa, I am a 71yr old DWM who had just about given up on ever doing anything with the computer. I had decided this high tech world had passed me by. Then, perhaps by the grace of God, I stumbled across one of your videos on youtube.com. I have viewed most of them at least once and a few many times. I was discussing your videos with my stepson recently. He said to me, “so that’s what has you so excited now”. When I showed him the one on clickbank, he became just as excited as I am, so we are now beginning to work together to develop something along the same line as you have. I can’t tell you what a blessing you have been to us. I’m surprised someone hasn’t tried to stop you because you’re definitely “stepping on the toes” of some of the rip-off artists out there. I’ve learned more from you in the last few weeks than I ever learned from some of those— “guantee you can make $93,762 within the first 90 days” con-sites. Keep up the good work——–you’re doing a great service.
Lisa,
I’m thinking of getting into affiliate marketing and I have a niche that may be able to sell well. I would like to use Clickbank, but there have been so many bad reviews about them all across the internet; ranging from not updating their hop data to not giving affiliates their well deserved commissions. Is this true about Clickbank?
Hi Lisa, I am so inspired with your YouTube videos! I am 54yrs old, and though I get around the internet, I never thought I could do what you are doing, but now after watching your videos and reading your blog I have signed up for a blog!Do you believe that?! You really are a Blessing! Keep up the good work! (TycoonBob)

Me too. I’ve been registered with clickbank a long time ago and haven’t done anything with it because I don’t have it all down packed. I know some stuff, but some other stuff just gets me lost. I have my own website because I do medical billing from home. Any help will be appreciated.
Hey Lisa!
Great job with your YouTube vids and your blog is SUPER informative! Clickbank is a winner! There are so many ways to make money online it makes my head spin.
The key is finding good work from home information. I looked out several years ago…I got to learn from Jim Edwards.
My focus right now is helping people find odd jobs. I search through everything from cleaning headstones in a cemetery…to making money with old books!
Keep up the great work!
Rubbish, nonsense, all talk.
Please could you give me a short tutorial on the use of these seven top money programs, which is the best to start with?
I would like to pick them one after the other.
Thanks
I’m in agreement with Lisa about Clickbank and 200% junk.
However, that being said, as an Expert and Author on the subject of planning bar/bat/b’nai mitzvahs – my book needs the spotlight and face-time with is potential readers. For this reason, I have listed on ClickBank.com.
What you haven’t addressed yet Lisa – is how to sell a product/service when you have something yourself.
Thanks for the feedback, Robert. I guess one reason I didn’t approach it from that angle is I have no experience with that side of ClickBank. I’ve never sold anything on ClickBank, so my advice would be very generic. One strategy I use with my blog posts, videos, etc. is I talk about subjects that I have experience with so that’s why I took that approach with this video.
Hi Lisa,
I am new to the world of website.
I wanted to develop a website purely for social use within our family network. Not expecting any money.
Need your help to throw some light.
thanks in advance,

Just put my website online new to the game and thought maybe you could help out look at my site and tell me which way to go with it and mybe what i need to make it successful. I liked your approach on youtube thought you we’re pretty smart. Nelson
I have serious challenges joining ClickBank because my country is not listed and that is because of the stereotype that everything from Nigeria is a scam, which is NOT true.
A lot of us who want to do business online cannot just because of a few people in our country that causes big problem. What do you think is the way out? A few years ago I wrote to clickbank about this but I got no response from them.
Can anyone help me out with joining clickbank? I really want to do affiliate program with clickbank. I like the site and they pay good commission too. Not all Nigerians are scammers a lot of us have conscience and are God fearing.
hi amir here i watching to you video at youtube i also find many days at net about clickbank infor but i try today youtube so i’m lucky here got your video i now i know way hot use clickbank thanks i hop i do it any pro i sendind to email you thanks lot

hi lisa,
my nickname is lisa too. i just love your videos. im new to the affiliate marketing game, and im having a small problem building my website with adsense. im very good with posting on adwords and have made a few sales but, my question to you is this, can you use the same ads on adwords and adsense? How long have you been in the business? I plan to learn alot from you. keep up the good work, and keep those videos coming. Thanks for the info!
fbp2009
Thank you, Felicia. I’m not sure I understand your question. AdSense and AdWords are two different programs. AdWords is for advertisers who bid on keyword phrases to rank their sites in Google’s “Sponsored Ads.” As an AdSense publisher (like me), we earn money by displaying these AdWords ads on our sites. I don’t use AdWords. I am only an AdSense publisher.
Dear: Lisa
I thank you for being honest in all your videos. I became interested in online business, after I started listening to your videos, but I’m still having problems because I don’t kknow where to start. if there’s a way you can help me, please let me know because I do value your opinions.
Topic of your article is very interesting, i have bookmarked your blog

Hi Lisa,
I have been researching the internet for several months trying to get legitimate information regarding making money online. About a week ago, I was frustrated and just about to give up. Then I came across your youtube video and started yelling…..”Hallelujah.” It is nice to know that there are still a few good people in the world.
I just wanted to say, “Thank you!!”
Thanks a lot Lisa. I appreciate all the information, recommendations and suggestions. Your site is definitely among the best.

I just looked at your youtube video on click bank. I just started using clickbank on one of my sites as a affilate page. I have gotten quite a few views so far but reading this blog and viewing your clip made me think a little harder on what is good and bad. I thank you for taking your time to do that for many of us publisher’s. I am also using adsense and adbrite for over six months now and each month I am making double the amount than the month before. Again thank you

Hi,
An excellent article. I’ve been working with Adsense quite successfully but the time it has taken to reach a ‘decent’ level of earning is large.
Personally I wouldn’t advise people to make money through the programs you’ve mentioned unless they have absolutely nothing in hand. I would advise people to either run an offline small business or take up a job because you can definitely make better money by working much less.
All the best!
Hey Lisa you are WONDERFUL. All your advice, tips, and suggestions are so informative and clear. I am a SAHM mommy blogger, looking for a way to earn some extra income from home, and just enough to help contribute to our monthly bills. The whole affiliate aspect still not completely sure on. I do have adsense on my blog and slowly earning from that. I have great ideas of what I want to do with my blog and eventually make a site where moms/parents can come and get great, fashion, beauty, parenting advice an etc. but not sure where to even begin, like finding experts to contribute to the site when people write in with questions etc. I guess basically I am asking you what are your tips on getting a site built and popular. Also, what are your opinions on the best way to make taht extra income each month. Right now My blog is basically just about my everyday life. Sorry if this sounds so jumbled…lol!
.-= April´s last blog … Quotable Sunday =-.
Yeah good information thank you It’s hard to find something that sells and even harder to know what to sell I would like to hear your comment on that aspect.
As always, I appreciate the honest information Lisa tirelessly provides. Doug, you’re absolutely right, about how hard it is to find something that sells and that worth promoting. Because there are so many possibilities on the internet (it’s a good and a bad thing) it’s easy to get bombarded with everything screaming for your attention all at once.
I’ve learned to slow down a bit and do a bit of research first. (I get excited about learning something new – it really gets the creative juices flowing.) Then I decide how I’ll plan my promotional strategies.

“It’s so important to build credibility and trust as an affiliate, and one way to start is to buy and use what you recommend.”
So true. I only promote what I use. That way I actually know how it works – and whether it even works. The website I’ve put here is based around a product I use all the time. I’m only interested in promoting things that I like. I don’t know what my next project will be, but I have a few ideas – and a few more now I’ve read your page.

Hello Lisa, I have been trying to build my web site and have started a few other blogs, my blogs are on the subject of health because I have an interest and becoming passionate about good health. I have twitter, facebook, blogger ect, but can’t seem to get anywhere.
I have no traffic and i have Google Adsense, I have clickbank, but not invested money in Adsense, yet. How can i get more traffic to my sites? I have a few domain names. I am reading a viewing all your help videos, great job with them by the way. I still need some HELP!!!! Any advise on what to do with my blogs?
Lisa,
Which of your 7 are attributable to your free eBooks as the means to the sale? Also, I offer an affiliate program at 55% revenue and am trying to find some people such as yourself to partner with – interested?
I have quite a series that I spent a lot of time on, (several years of experience, trial and error) to create some what I consider high quality products from the knowledge I’ve gained.
My biggest obstacle right now is a total lack of massive marketing. And I am no videoblogger by any means, like you!

The best way to make money with Clickbank is to find products that match your site and review them. That’s the ONLY way I’ve done it and it’s the only that’s worked for me.
There are many ways to optimize your blog. I use affiliate programs mostly but you can use AdSense, sell ad space on your blog, sell your own product, and more.
Hi, Nice Post,Especially the first idea about this http://www.goresellers.com/ site is very super,I try to follow that one.
Hi Lisa, I’ve been watching your youtube videos. Very useful and straight forward no nonsense advice. Thanks a lot. Very refreshing to find a genuine person in the money making online business

I have found that it is a hit and miss and not to wait to change out a product on my website after 1000 hops and no sales. After 200 clicks, you can usually tell which one is going to convert. I didn’t understand this for a long time! Thanks, Lisa!

Well, today, Affiliates Marketing is the best way for bloggers to make money blogging, they can sell product without creating itself, easy, right? And you should choose the right product to promote to effective make money by affiliate program.
Well I haven’t really tried adsense so I’d like to get into that but I have heard a lot of positive speak about affiliate marketing and I believe you can get good results by building an email list of your blog readers but really I think why market for someone else when for a few dollars you can create your own product about something you do well – it only costs $49 to set up as a Clickbank vendor and this allows you to enjoy the profits of your own affiliate ‘army’!
Agree Louise, that’s what I’m doing with Clickbank now and it’s nice having another stream of income to add to everything else. I sell 3 products on Clickbank and it’s going well.
Hey Lisa!
For the last week I’ve been reading your blog and you have the best information I’ve ever seen online! It is so refreshing to read your marketing ideas, because they are so carefully thought out. I’m a huge proponent of natural medicine and I just completed my new blog: http://www.bacterialvaginosishomeremedies.net/
You’ve inspired me and you’ve given my the direction I needed. There are not too many people online who are as honest as you are. I’m also going to check out SiteSell’s affiliate program.
Keep up the great work!

I earn as web hosting affiliate, on Google Adsense, ClickBank and Amazon. My total monthly earnings is $350-500 and I can say that I am satisfied with that but I am just a beginner
Hey Lisa, nice to stumble onto your blog, looks great and lots of valuable content here. Obviously, I will roam on your blog and what else you got to offer. Enjoy your video clips. Thanks for sharing! Lani
PS..visit me sometime. Mahalo
Hey if you had time, would you look at my website and tell me what you think of it.
Thanks for a great summary. I earn as web hosting affiliate, on Google Adsense. My total monthly earnings is under 50 $ T_T and I can say that I am satisfied with that but I am just a beginner. This my first blog
Hi Lisa,
Thankyou for the great information on your site. I am still reading through it – there is so much information here.
I started building web sites about one year ago and have now built a few sites around travel, foreign languages and clickbank products. I am very proficient with computers so building sites is easy for me.
However, I have not been able to attract much traffic, although the traffic I do attract really seem to like my sites. I have bought a few web marketing & traffic building courses and have learnt a lot in the last 6 months. However, it’s hard getting the traffic to a level where I make sales. If I advertise on Adwords (I have read a whole course on this too) I get traffic but the advertising cost is greater than my commissions so I waste my time. I am now lost with affiliate marketing…
Sorry to be a pain but what do you recommend I do now?
I would really like to make so money online.

I happened upon your Youtube vids searching for information that luckily you provide for free! I am making money off my Youtube account but I cannot seem to find if I can use more than just Adsense on it? I am in the area of 100,000 views a month and want to get the most out of this site as possible?!
However after reading your info I am thinking I should branch out and start my own site when I come up with a good idea?
Thanks for the info!

Thank you so much for sharing. It is becoming more rare to find quality material. Seems plenty of sites are offering nothing unique – just scraped content or rehashed rss feed. Your work is appreciated. Anytime we can discover more viable ideas about building our business is a good thing.
You are my hero! I moved my site search up the page, we’ll see what happens. Thanks and keep up the good work!
how can i earn money through click bank affiliate programme without a website?what should be my strategy?
I’d like to add one more: once you learn all these internet marketing skills you can provide these services to others: building blogs, websites, providing internet marketing services, SEO, article writing, or whatever else you are good at.
Hi, i am 15 years old…

WOW! Excellent. I absolutely loved this. I found a TON of ideas in here. Thanks so much. Well done!
I think I love you Lisa. Thanks a lot, I’m gonna go get started!
One among the many good sites i visited. spare some tips and tricks about traffic to a blog.
I never believed someone could me 5,000 USD per month from Adsense, but what the hell is this?
After watching the video, I think I will play it often to encourage me to continue working hard,
I know if I can do my blog right that there are TONS of photographers out there who could be reading it. I’ve had limited success monetizing so far – especially bad conversion with Adsense. I’ve had as many people buy cameras through Amazon as I’ve had Adsense clicks. Maybe the mix will just be a little different for my niche.
Thanks for taking the time to share the programs you use. As far as product reviews, do you usually buy the product out of pocket before you do the review or do you contact the manufacturer to get the product on loan first?
Thesis theme is good and so is the commission structure. I saw the review video and it looks good. I have bought headway which is similar to thesis and might give thesis a try. Thanx.
Very Nice post with very informative content! Earning in these 7 ways makes so much sense.
I trust you have a savy Accountant helping maximize your business structure and Tax saving opportunity. You and your followers don’t want all of your $$ to go to the IRS. Look what the IRS really spells – “Theirs”! Just pointing that out.
Thanks for the great article. I used SBI before and may want to sign up for their affiliate program. It has such a great wealth of information for new affiliates that focuses on actually building a stable business.
-Amanda
p.s. I too wrote one here as well money making affiliate!
Nice list of money making programs! I have been looking for additional earning methods in the net aside from Adsense. Glad I found your site. Its really relevant & useful for me. Many Thanks!
Lisa, I was really sitting on the fence with buying Site build it (which is how I found you, Googled Site build it – that info should help you know where one of your readers came from loll)
So I wasn’t sure if I wanted to pay for Site build it every month, leave alone create a website. I see profits made through blogs alone.
Could you suggest if its worth going for if one isn’t a complete newbie? I feel some of it might be valuable because no one knows everything there is to know but I do have the basics drilled in my mind. Whats your opinion?
Btw, thanks
I have a Qustion ..
Im from Denmark .. i have see some of your videos .. the one that, you
tell aboudt Clickbank .. see that you earn 200$ in one week – and this was for 22 sales.
So my Qustion :
Your “snapshot” on Clickbarn – was the sale only postet on Clickbanks marketing? or have you posted links all around on the net? to get the 22 sales.
You got 22 sales – how many hours work are it?
Maybe you post 200 links – but only 22 sales – are that corect?
Because i guess that 1 link gost 5 minut .. so for 22 sales a week , that is: 1000 minut (16,6 hour) .. Right?
Because .. i want to find a way to earn money working from home .. but i wont spare 16 hours for aboudt 200$
You can Write to: [email protected]
Hope to hear from you. (i have a oder Qustion, but its to privat to tell aboudt here – so hope you write at my Mail)
Hi ! Lisa….here is a big problem to create a account from NEPAL in Click Bank. Why this county is not available for this clickbank.com. I want to work here, It is impossible to do from NEPAL ? Please give some reply into my e-mail.
I hope you positive response!
plz plz plz plz reply me….
I have most of theses ideas incorporated into my sites
Thanks for the great article
Barbara
hi Lisa ,
am hooked on your site am devouring all i can read from u and am really finding it very informative, however all the ideas i have got from you cant seem to find expression yet because i live in Nigeria and my country which is the most populous in Africa is not included in clink bank and other on-line business ideas, please help , i don’t know what to do!
I’ve heard SiteSell is a good program to promote? How do you usually promote it, to your list, by SEO, article marketing?
Thanks
Great ideas here! This information will go respectively well with my idea.
I hope this works. I hate being an employee!
It’s good to find a site to help us and shows us the right way without trying to sell a book or other product
Thank you and I will follow your site
Hi Lisa!
This place is a gold mine of accurate, and helpful information on growing an affiliate business. Having started up my own “test blog” i can verify that your advice is on track. Thank You, and i will continue to visit. Your website is a fantastic resource for anyone wishing to be their own boss.
I had tried some and will review others
thanks for the info.
Thanks for the info…When I get some downtime this weekend I will check it out!
Great one, mostly people will prefer sitesell and domain sell. what do you prefer from your listing.
Great ideas here! This information will go respectively well with my idea.
A company I work with registers company names for small businesses, and as a side, they also offer web hosting and domain names for a small additional charge.
They pay pennies for a reseller hosting account, and make thousands from it every month. It really is money for old rope.
hi lisa,
am one of your admirers please am a website designer that needs your guide lines on IT business and also how i can get freelance webdesigning online.am from Nigeria and am ready to work
There are many ways to make money online. What I appreciate most about this article is that you don’t try to make it sound easy. No matter what anyone tries it will take work. However, you did point out a very important reason why many don’t succeed….they quit too soon.
Great site, great content. I am a beginner and learned quite a bit here.
I suffered through over a year of trial and error trying to build successful websites, after weeks of work I would simply give up. That was before I found Site Build It! They taught me so much about how to do everything the right way, and they never promised that I would make money immediately.
SBI is definitely the answer for anyone who has been frustrated in the past, and for those who say it’s too expensive, let me say it is rather like building a successful website AND getting a college course on how to do it right. For $30 a month you can’t beat it. With all the principles they taught me, I am now able to build WordPress sites that make money, without wasting hundreds of dollars on pointless “Guru” courses. I’ve bought, reviewed and returned at least 6 of them.
For a solid business, and the best “How To” out there SBI is the best!
Hi Lisa,
Domain and Web Hosting Reselling sounds interesting but I’m still confused on how it works. Do you buy a pack of domains and resell it for profit or do you become an affiliate for the domain/hosting service? Is it really just about sending traffic to your storefront?
Thank you
No, you get a replicated website (looks like GoDaddy’s site for example). So WebsitePalace.com is my reseller store that was given to me. I customized the homepage/landing page. I earn commissions on anything sold there. You receive a similar site like this when you sign up to resell. It’s really like being an affiliate except it’s not since they deduct a “buy rate” from your commissions. You also get to set your own prices, and you earn residuals.
Could it be good to promote more than a products to sales?
Very good information you always put out Lisa. Thank you for just being you! (smile)
Keep up the good work in getting that long $ gUaP $ =)
We so appreciate your site post. You can find a lot of means we could put it to very good use by using a minimum of effort in time and resources. Thank you really with regard to helping have the post give light to many questions we have got before now.
Hi Lisa!
I’m very glad to have found your website. I love your style- very simple, honest, and to the point. I just started a new blog (where I share with people my daily experiences with P90X!) and I think that your information is going to help me tremendously. I didn’t really start my blog to make money. I simply wanted it to help me stick to my P90X challenge by making me more accountable while sharing good information with the world. My information and videos are raw and I tell it like it is. I know you’re busy, but if you have time, I would love for you to visit my blog and give me your feedback. http://www.JustHenry.com
Thanks again, Lisa for all the great information!!
JustHenry
Lisa, I’m aware about some of money making programs you just share. But there are some I need to give a try like THesis affiliate program and then commission junction
This was a good post!
Thanx for sharing good information!
It is not easy for everyone to achieve the results you’ve achieved, I am one of them, but anyway what accounts for me. In fact I am new at this and do not want to spend my life trying to earn some money if you do not use the knowledge of others. Po is that people like me that we are looking for courses on how to make money online and power like you have one day how good it is.
Greetings.

Lisa, I am assuming you had to purchase whatever it is you sell on clickbank first, correct? Did you spend a lot of money trying to find quality stuff?
I did buy several books I would never review, but Clickbank has a 60 day money back guarantee. I don’t usually ask for a refund unless it’s horrible but I don’t promote the ones I don’t like.
Great list you have here. So far I am working with Adsense, Amazon and Linkshare. The web hosting /reseller program is something I did’t thought about, but I see in your list is nr.1.
So maybe I will give it a look…
After reading this post now i come to know various method to earn money online. Before reading this post i know only the one or two method to earn money such as Adsense but now i know the 7 ways as you given above in your post.
What are you saying about AdSense is absolutely true. From experience I also found out that it works better on websites not targeted to “professionals”. In my opinion the AdSense provided ads get clicked by the casual “googler” that hears of a product (or service, or trend…whatever) and knows how to use the big G. Anyway, in order to make real money with AdSense you need a pretty big amount of traffic.
As far as Thesis goes, even though I use it because of its “out-of-the-box” SEO capabilities I never really got into the whole affiliate program. I guess I’ll give it a try soon enough.
Thanks for the informative post.
Thanks for the tips. Heard of sitebuildit. Will take a look and give it a go
Ok. I can’t help but ask what are you using to create the logo 2 Create a Website? Is it a logo designer software or are you really that good with photoshop because that logo is fancy.

I watch lots of you’re videos,I really like what you write hope you’ll keep going and tell us more ‘secrets’ about make money online.
hi Lisa.
I am completely new to the online $ thing, but wanting to give it a go. The one thing that seems to be missing in your content (for me) is the link that says “Start here”.
And that’s exactly why I’m writing a book on this very subject. Make sure you’re on my email list. All subbies will get it free!
thank you Lisa.
thanks you.. how about with blog review???
I am interested with the reselling idea. Maybe I should learn more about it.
Great guides. I ended up buying Lisa’s wordpress guide and don’t regret it. Next up is the Thesis theme.
Register a domain and get situated right with Speedy-Joe’s web hosting and domain registration. Please and thank you.
Thanks Joe! Appreciate the support.
Hi. Please give me some information on how to get started with site build it n all this other ‘stuff’. Do i need to take any other lessons, like creative writing maybe or will it be enough if i work at it. Many many questions but that’ll do for now. Thanks
Hi James
No, the purpose of using something like SBI! is is assumes you absolutely know nothing. It’s great for beginners.
Hi again. I’m in the aviation industry which takes a lot of my time and with odd hours every now and then. The only way it would work for me is dedicating time to build a site focusing on aviation as there’s so much reading n study in my job (CFII) and much else would be a conflict of interest. How feasible would that be. Also is it possible to have good enough passive cash flow in the next five or six years that i can focus on it full time. I would appreciate more information on this if possible. I know i need to start a business and this seems like the most viable option as I travel a lot sometimes for weeks. I just appreciate the dedication it would require and that’s why I need a lot more information as I proceed, especially from someone who has made it work. I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
Hi Lisa,
As usual another great post with inspiring and motivating tips. I will certainly use most of these insight you provided to get on the high way to success. All the best for 2012.
Hey Lisa
Great informative guidelines….information I will implement in my business. I’m using adsense in some of my sites and starting to see some results. It’s all in the placement where I’ve noticed different results. Keep up the good work!
Hey Lisa, great stuff as always. Keep up the great work!
I’m loving your blog! I learn new ideas, tips and techniques that are very helpful for a blogger newbie like me.
Inspiring, and motivates me to keep the work up!
Would you please recommend me some online programs I can take as a college student? Programs that take less time and initial capital to run.
Kind regards.
Adsense is what has been working for me, since I don’t get enough traffic to facillitate other affiliate programs i am emphasizing on increasing my traffic flow. Maybe I have too many iron in the stove!!!
Hey Lisa, Thanks for all this info. I have been checking in so often and learn something new every time.Lots of info.
i am totally inspired by you to start something in internet and i am getting success
Thanks for your honest opinions. There’s a lot of lies out there on the internet so it’s good to see someone not just trying to pitch something and hype it up.
Hi Lisa,
I’m a budding IMer and I found your blog searching for tips. I want to concentrate on physical products and finding this article has opened up a slew of different opportunities to dive into. Thanks for a non-biased article and truth.
I have started blogging because of you, Your you tube videos have inspired me to do so. These tips you have provided is great for any blogger i use some of those revenue methods.
Hi Lisa, lots of sound advice here. Will keep reading your posts. Keep up the good work.

The best thing about this list of 7 money making programs is that they are diverse. Diversity in online marketing is the key to making consistent money in the long term and the short. You mention in the first point, residual income. There will be days in which your income is low, sometimes weeks. When this happens your long term income kicks in and those awesome pages you have indexed in Google, like this one start paying off from regular visits.
Absolutely Scott! Diversity and residual income are the anchors of my business.
Lisa I agree with you on this 7 but also I will say making money with any of those options are very difficult except you know how to blog and promote your link which requires a lots skills to do.
One easy means I find interest earning money online is through online investment that pays percentage e.g Jss tripler, R7, MyBrowserCash and more.
These programs does not requires one to promote before making money with them, it is stress free. Though there are other benefits and risk which I have stress further on my site.
Hi…. Lisa i am Indian blogger and i want to make some money from internet so Please help me.
Thanks for sharing your top earners. I have been considering starting a reseller site for webhosting and domains, as I know some other people who list this as their #1 income source also. I think I will look into it some more.
Best decision I ever made, Kim! You should do it!
hmmm, great list. I’ve only experimented with AdSense and Amazon Associates Program. Didnt ever think about your #1 reason that you listed. And it makes sense, since you will continue to receive checks for a long time.
So here we are… 4 years later and these 7 programs are still going strong. GREAT recommend, Lisa
Lisa, I’m not into You Tube yet, but planning to try it out. Any info for beginners would be appreciated. I think I’m a bit scared. LOL!!!!!
Thanks Lisa, Great work.
i am impressed with this article and your Google Adsence article. now heading for a Forum sign up.
hello
please help me…
i am student and i want make some money…but i don;t know “how make money online”….
please help miss lisa….
i make account in clickbank but i don’t know how make money through clickbank….
Start by buying ebooks buddy, like the rest of us. Also get your domain registered. If you read everything on Lisa’s site you’ll have an idea.
Dear Lisa,
.
You have seven ways to make money from your blog, but i have nothing
From the seven ways you explain above, they inspire me so much to build a professional blog so that I can create my money from it.
Thanks for the list Lisa. Many of them i havn’t even heard. By the way have you tried tribalfusion or infolinks?
chitika is also worth a try , even darren rowse use that.
These are great income producing methods. I am not sure which a better text ads program Chitika or Adsense because they seemed to pay about the same.
I’m still having difficult cracking the technique.
I guess if you are successful in selling products in clickbank or driving traffic to a site, perhaps you could use the same technique in selling other products, right?
Hi Lisa, I have a problem. I spend so much time on your sites and reading your information, I forget to attend to my
I am looking at other avenues of making money, but have not decided on which way to go.
site
I enjoy your work and wisdom. God Bless!

Hi Lisa,
I just thought I would let you know that just reading your list keeps me motivated toward my goal of $100/day by June 2014. Thanks.
Hi Lisa
Just wanted to say, you are one of those rare gems who gives. Great informative posts, continue the good work. Frank Z.
hey lisa Irby, Nice post these programs are very popular easy to earn money any small and big bloggers.
I see, Domain and Web Hosting Reselling is most profitable way to making money via Internet.
I have started too…
Another ways, I tried Adsense. That’s enough to maintain my websites cost.
Hi Lisa,
Great post as usual. While this may seem like a very short list to some, it actually holds more impact than a lot of the 50 and 100 money making lists online. It’s direct and filled with explanation. Great post.
You have not included aweber, is it not making any money for you
Hi George, AWeber is not a program, it’s a tool. In this post I’m focusing more on the actual programs. I list AWeber on my Tools list here http://blog.2createawebsite.com/lisas-toolbox/
Hi Lisa !
Thank you for your nice list. Adsense is perfect for monetizing the traffics. your list is good to monetize a blog or site traffics. i would like to choose Adsense, because of its high trustworthiness.
I used to do very well with the Amazon affiliate program and with Shareasale. Unfortunately, since last year, I noticed a significant decrease in traffic to all my affiliate pages. I relied too much on Google traffic for those websites and now I pay the price. That’s a lesson for me to diversify traffic sources as much as I can.
All I can say is, thank you, thank you . . . Currently am a web designer but looking, or actually shopping around to start blogging. Web design these days is slowly fading away, as there are numerous free programs to do it yourself. But, am looking to start a blog. Your article is a “must have” for somebody such as myself who knows nothing about blogging!
Thanks for the info. I would suggest a tip jar here on your site – you can make some pretty good $$ for your advice/articles!
Nice article. Good to see this…
Thank You Very Much for posting this..
Keep up the great work, I’ve bookmarked for future reference.
Thank you so much for sharing. It is becoming more rare to find quality material.It’s direct and filled with explanation. Great post lisa
Lisa, your tips are very good. I am currently making money thru adsense and other banner ads, but these tips, I never tried. Thanks for your article.
This is really a short list, but a ‘best’ list.
You have listed some of the best money making programs that a blogger would really be able to make money from. Adsense is the best for new bloggers and affiliate programs are good for nice SEO.
Good work. Keep posting
i like to mention here that squidoo and hubpages are good place to generate your income.
Hi Lisa
I started my website back in December last year after I bought a copy of N.W.S. After following all your advice in the eBook I am now starting to see results. You are an inspiration to us all please keep up the great work you do, and teach us more!!!
Thanks Brett
Awesome Brett! This is what I like to hear. Keep up the great work.
Lisa,
Have you thought about making kindle edition for your ebooks? Or are you already do that?
I just started a Christian personal finance and time management blog, and I’m writing as often as possible, but I am kind of lost as to how to monetize the site and drive traffic. It was pretty clear to me before I made the blog, but now that I have the basics done, I’m fuzzy as to what to do next. I’m on your site trying to find some answers.
Yes, I’m working on it now. The biggest mistake I made was how I added the graphics so for the Kindle version I have to re-format the book. It’s not been fun to say the least — especially for a large book.
Today, the best way to drive traffic are…
1) SEO
2) Social Media
3) YouTube
4) Email marketing
But you also need a plan and a strategy. Setup a rhythm with your site so people know when to expect your new content. That will help develop a habit among your readers of knowing when to come to your blog. Use AWeber to email your new content to your readers so you can begin training people to come back to your blog. Consistency in the beginning is huge.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes but one of the best things I ever did years ago was deciding to blog weekly and sticking to that schedule. A lot of people publish content randomly and then stop. It takes time to build up momentum but you need to be consistent.
Also, keep your goals in mind. Who is the person you are trying to target? (People who are Christians and struggling with their finances?) What kind of information would they value the most. As you write your content, continue to think about their needs.
Then branch out to youtube and start doing videos on related topics. You could create teasers that talk about topics on your blog and then send to your site to read more.
Traffic is all about experimentation and what works for you.
I thank you for being honest in all your videos.
Hi Lisa
Thanks for all valuable tips.
AdSense is easier way to make money online, but you hate it. For those blogger who creates blog only for earning money online this is best way to earn their money.
Domain and Web Hosting Reselling is nice idea to make money. Here we can set a price for that website so we’ll get more profit.
I really like your content! Is there a program to make money that is similar to adsense?
