Adsense VS Easy Ways to Make Money

Graph below shows my earning for the last 3 months. At first, Adsense was the main income source. Then I switch my strategy to include other income sources. Of course you keep reading down will know what are those easy ways to make money online!

On September, other income sources are just one sixth (less than 20 percent) of Adsense income. Gradually it increase and equal to Adsense at November. And it is now overtake far from Adsense earning in first week of December!

Of course we don’t want to bury Adsense income. I’m now trying to balance the earning between Adsense and other income source.

Easy Ways to Make Money Online

So now the question is what are the easy ways to make money online than Adsense? At three easy ways for you:

  • Affiliate products – Find some hot products, write review and sell it to your readers. This is not always work well unless you really target the right product and reader.
  • Text Link Ads – This is the easiest. Provided you have good Page Rank.
  • Paid Review – Everybody can earn through this way. Try the service or software then write review honestly and get paid.
You may have more ways to make money online. But I think these are the most easy ways to make money online for most. Last but not least, there is no quick money here. Work hard and smart then you get paid! ;)

The same is the case with my Medifast and Nutrisystem weight loss blog; I am currently focused on learning the best ways to make money from my blog by promoting affiliate products, and as a result, I’ve learned quite a lot in the process.

Being a successful affiliate marketer requires you to know what you’re doing, and in this article, I will be sharing with you some of the top 4 affiliate marketing lessons I have ever learn from my Medifast weight loss blog.

1. You Need to Have a Plan

This is the first and the most important lesson.

If I were to ask you the question, how do you make money on your blog from affiliate marketing? What will be your answer? I know a lot of people will answer by saying they do regular reviews of products they use on their blogs, and some people will answer by saying they subtly include affiliate links into their products.

One mistake most people make when trying to make money from affiliate marketing is that they don’t have a plan.

Don’t expect to get results just by reviewing affiliate products every once in a while; instead, focus on creating a system to help ensure more passive affiliate income. For example, you can optimize your affiliate reviews for long-term SEO traffic, you can create an autoresponder series for your affiliate reviews, and you can do a lot more to ensure you have a long-term income. No matter how you go about it, make sure you have a plan that guarantees your affiliate income.

2. Value Equals Money

A lot of bloggers are not worried about selling out, as long as they are able to make some quick bucks.

When it comes to making money from affiliate marketing you need to realize that value equals money. Don’t just review products you come across because of the quick buck you can make. Instead, focus on promoting valuable products and building up your reputation. It will end up paying you in the future.

3. Use Coupons and Special Offers

If you’re not getting as much sales as you expect from products you promote, why not take it to the next level by using coupons and special offers? By this, what I mean is that you should focus on leveraging special discounts or special days (such as Christmas etc.) to make a lot of sales. You will be amazed at how effective these can be. At least, it is working for my weight loss blog.

4. SEO Traffic is the Best for Affiliate Marketing

You can also make a lot more affiliate sales by focusing on getting your affiliate pages ranked high in the search engines. You can easily do this by optimizing your affiliate pages for the search engines, by interlinking your affiliate pages on your blog, and by building quality backlinks to your review pages to help increase your rankings.

This is a guest post by John, who promotes affiliate products like Medifast and Nutrisystem with discounts and coupons on his blog. He also writes articles that give nutrisystem discount code and medifast coupon code.

We have almost pass the 1st month of 2011. I admit myself a little slow in develop my online business but it doesn’t mean I’ve stop here.

The best thing about blogging is it preserve what you’ve build earlier. It is like we are building a 100 stories high hotel. Although we only build 30 stories, it still worth 30 stories of value.

Last month, a blogger email me to quote my gadget blog – DigitalMobiler.com. He offered me to sell out the blog at USD $300! It is good offer huh? ( I didn’t update the blog for 9 months!)

Should I sell the Blog?

I didn’t reply his email. Because the blog is still making money although not that much. I believe it has potential to make more money if I really put effort to maintain it.

What do you think? Will you sell the blog if you were me? ;)
