Anyone can make money online selling information. You can list items on eBay for less than a dollar. At one time I was making over $2200.00 per month just selling information “How to guides” on eBay. The beauty is you write the “How to guide” one time and sell it over and over again.
I have sold information packets that I have shipped out and I have sold ebooks (electronic books). A simple document converted to a PDF file. PDF stands for Portable Document Format. Ebooks are commonly in the PDF format, because it can be viewed by anyone with a PDF reader and easily printed out. Most computers have this installed in them already.
Adobe.com offers a free adobe reader. When selling my guides in PDF format, I always include a link to adobe's free PDF reader. Adobe.com also offers a 30-day free trial for their PDF writer/converter. Or try download.com for a PDF converter. This is a simple program that can covert your Microsoft Works or Word files to PDF format.
You can write an information “How to guide” about anything you specialize in. EBay is a great place to do this. I have sold the following information packets on eBay:
* “How to Make a Living at Online Poker”
* “How to Start a Home Daycare”
* “How to Prospect as a Real Estate Agent'
* “How to Get a Job Overseas”
* “How to Make Money Reselling Wheelchairs”
For each of these “How to guides” I was either experienced in the area or a family member of mine was. My wife ran a home daycare, my sister worked overseas, etc.
Depending on the information you are selling it can be better to sell the hard copy instead of the ebook. If you are selling a business start up kit people see more value in a tangible item being shipped to them, as opposed to a downloaded ebook.
Even though it is the same information. I sold more poker guides in the ebook format because people wanted it instantly. And this is the case with most buyers; they want their information now.
As a side note to this- There is an ebook breaking records at clickbank called ExpressProfitsOnline This ebook share ideas and information for making money on eBay- I haven't read it- Please provide some feedback if you have. It is currently number one on clickbank for the term “eBay”
Make Money Without Selling
Thousands of people make money online with hundreds of different methods. They may do freelance work designing web sites or programming to name a couple.
I will be talking a bit about one of the common methods of making money online which is buying and flipping websites. This is a venture that requires only a basic understanding of HTML and moderate photo shop skill.
Find online and look for a super clean site. You really want one that isn't cluttered with graphics. You should get something between $10 and $20.
Now I strongly recommend for this avenue and most other MMO strategies that you become at least half decent with photo editing software. People like flashy sites with custom logos and headers. This will be the part you spend most of your time on so you really want to get fast at it.
Once you add the logo and custom header, it is mostly marketing. Make sure to bring out all the positive traits of the site you are selling. Mention the fact that the content is unique and hand written. Mention that the logo and header are custom. If the site is a high paying adsense niche like insurance or bank terms, make sure they know that.
List the site on ebay for $1. That seems super low since you may have spent $20 on it, but that isn't where you get the money from. Their are tons of new guys looking to buy sites on Ebay. If they are new they will need hosting. You can offer the $1 price if they sign up for hosting under your affiliate link.
An example of how this works is this. Hostgator pays a minimum of $50 for customer sign-ups under your affiliate link. So you will make $50 from the sale even though the customer only pays you $1.
