There is not a set way common for everyone.

Start with Google webmaster official blogs and participate productively in reputed forums like webmasterworld.

People who have been in your shoes are kinder when they see sincerity and are open to guiding you down the right path.

Learning the basics is easy from forums like above or blogs like :

searchengineland.com

seomoz.org

seobook.com

toprankblog.com

etc; it is the practice that takes years in perfecting your skills.

And sorry to disappoint you but studying online marketing does not necessarily equals becoming a millionaire.

Best wishes for your success.

George asks…

What’s the best way to make decent money online?

Things I’ve experimented with so far:

– Clickbank Affiliate Sales (I’ve made a little bit, but haven’t done an adwords campaign before)

– Clickbank Publisher (I wrote a book – it’s doing well; Sold many copies myself– can’t figure out why affiliates don’t jump on it)

– Adsense (heh… I make under a back a day… big deal)

Any more things I should try…..? Looking to make as much as possible without investing a lot.

Thanks in advance for any and all answers.

P.S. Don’t recommend ebooks or get rich-quick guides. I’ve seen them all…. I’m not gonna purchase anything– just looking for advice from others who are into internet marketing as well.

The Web offers tremendous opportunities for those who know how to harness it. You hear of stories of people who earn thousands if not millions of dollars from doing business on Web. While there are many scams (same way in the traditional business world), there are various ways you can legitimately make money on the Web.

Here are the main ways you can earn money from the Internet:

1. Sell products on the Web – Big boys like Amazon or Lillian Vernon online catalog or smaller businesses like BigKidsVideo.com or Candle4Less.com all sell products on the Web.

You can either sell: (a) through your own storefront through your own website or applications such as Yahoo Stores; or (b) sell through online auctions like eBay

http://www.ebay.com
http://auctions.yahoo.com/
http://www.overstock.com
http://www.amazon.com
http://www.ubid.com
http://www.liquidation.com

2. Information Delivery. Others such as About.com or EuropeforVisitors.com create content and monetize their content in a number of ways:

a. Advertising – there are several ways you can earn money from advertising:

1. Join an advertising network. Advertising networks are organizations that aggregate Web sites that offer advertising space, and sell banner ads (and other advertising options) across them. Traffic requirement is often a minimum of 5,000 monthly impressions, although many do not accept sites hosted by free page services.

Burst Media http://www.burstmedia.com
Fastclick (ValueClick). Http://www.fastclick.com
Advertising.com. Http://www.advertising.com
Tribal Fusion http://www.tribalfusion.com

2. Participate in contextual advertising networks. Contextual advertising are text ads delivered based on the content of the web page using an automated system.

Google Adsense https://www.google.com/adsense/
Yahoo! Publishing Network (currently in beta and available to US publishers only) http://publisher.yahoo.com/
Intellixt http://vibrantmedia.com/site/web_01a5.htm
Quigo Adsonar http://www.quigo.com/adsonarexchange.htm
IndustryBrains http://www.industrybrains.com
Commission Junction Evolution http://www.cj.com
Kanoodle Brightads http://www.kanoodle.com/about/brightads.html
Clicksor http://www.clicksor.com/affiliate_programs.php
Contextweb http://www.contextweb.com/
Bidclix http://www.bidclix.com/
Bidvertiser http://www.bidvertiser.com/

3. Sell advertising for your site directly. This is admittedly a more difficult route for a small business site wanting to earn advertising revenues. But hey, as they say: “no pain, no gain!”

b. Affiliate Programs – you sell other people’s products that your audience may be interested in; and you get a certain commission after the desired action was done (whether a sale, a lead, subscription to email newsletter, or however this is defined)

c. Paid online content. Hoovers.com or WebmasterWorld.com Supporters forum all require paid subscription before accessing the information

d. Content licensing and syndication. Some publishers such as the Associated Press get paid every time their content is published elsewhere

Donald asks…

What is, spam free, Internet Marketing forum?

I’m looking for a forum about marketing and SEO. I don’t like Digital Point because their forum is cluttered with useless content and a lot of spam. Does anyone have an idea of where I can post and be bombarded with spam?

Jere answers:

Wickedfire or the Warrior forum are good places to check.

Joseph asks…

How can I get more hits to my website?

Any ideas as to how I can get the word out on my customizable children’s book company www.mjmbooks.com? We offer customized images as well as text and have original stories, how can we differentiate ourselves from the current companies that only have customizable text and get way up on the Google listings?

Are there any good books that talk about internet marketing?

Jere answers:

The more links you put to your website the more search engines will recognise it and thenhopefully people would visit it, but beware of spamming.

You could trying putting links to it in books and gift ideas forums?
