How to Make your First 11$ and be Set Up for Life in less than 1 Hour

How To Make A Start In Internet Marketing

So you have made the wise decision to jump on the money train called Internet Marketing or Online Business that sounds cooler. Now there are many possibilities to achieve your goal in this ever growing wide field of opportunities. What I will show you here is a way how you can make it not only for free but by ending up with 11 Dollars plus in your pocket. But first of all, making money online is never ever going to be ‘quick and easy’. there will always be some work involved. But as always; first things first What you need to start your own online business is a a to do list; that doesn’t sound like i want to sell you something here. You will need a website or a blog if you haven’t one set up already and you need a host. A host is where your website is going to be ‘hosted’ on the web. A ‘host’ or ‘Server’ can be located anywhere in the world so it doesn’t really matter where your physical location is.
Building Your Web Based Business on CMS – Content Management Systems

Now there are several ways to setup a website and start Internet Marketing. For once there is the common html based website that you can build with all kinds of tools such as PhotoShop and DreamWeaver. This way you will have static pages with static content and changes have to be made to each page separately. That is a rather complicated procedure, needs good html knowledge and we’ll call it old school web design. and dismiss it for our project right away. The second, and much more sophisticated way to build a web project where you can sell products online and do all kinds of user related things, is called Content Management System, or it’s acronym CMS. A CMS is based on a Mysql database and delivers dynamic content to the user. As it says it is dynamic and has only little static content. Pages are called out of the database when a user clicks on a link. Most CMS based websites have a short time cache set to 3600 seconds, 1 hour that will store the pages so they don’t have to be reloaded each time a user goes back to a previously visited page of your website which makes sense. Content Management Systems can, as the name states, manage content. Lots of content. A CMS is a lot more flexible and offers a lot more possibilities than a simple static website. The setup is not very complicated and you can always get help on forums. I will introduce several content management systems in the future here at make how to dot com. A few words only for now: What good CMS provides you with is:

• User Area with Login
• Online-Shop
• Forum
• News Section
• Real Simple Syndication due RSS
• FAQ Section for the most asked questions
• Ticket System for support
• Chat Feature
• Guest Book
• HTML Section to create your web pages
• Polls and Petition
• Address Book
• And in most CMS you will find many widgets and gadgets.

Building Your Internet Business On A (WordPress) Blog

Nevertheless, if you want to kick start your online marketing business and at the same time be compliant to the future of Internet standards like web 2, you might want to choose a blog to begin with. A blog is also based on an Mysql database and contains dynamic content. The setup though is much less complicated than a content management system and it has a greater flexibility. The downside is, that you have to install each functionality by yourself. Many of the so called plug-ins, are for free. That is good. Some and mostly the good and business related software (plug-ins are software) you will have to buy. They are not very expensive and they will take a lot of work of your shoulders once your online business is up and running. One of those software is called WP Affiliate Pro and I recommend that you at least have a look at it before you dismiss it, because i have tried it without…. not long though. Once you have come to the conclusion that you want to start your Internet Marketing business on a blog, you still have a choice to make. What blog is right for you? There are many the blogs out there, free once cooperated once, software to download and install and all kinds of free web servers that offer you free hosting of your blog. If you are serious about starting to be your own boss and enter the fantastic world of online marketing, than I would recommend that you also make a little more serious approach towards the subject. I’ll say it straight out, if you want to try to do everything by hand and the free way, you will never be able to serve the masses you want to get to your shop. Internet business functions one rule and one rule only: Masses. A lot of traffic will eventually make you a lot of money. That is if you want it or not. My online business makes money while i sleep! But then again, it’s not that i want to sell you something, that’s up to you. I will just show you how i did it. And believe me I didn’t have anything to start with besides my good faith, so i know what it means to do all the work manually. But to start setting up the blog that will get you started you don’t need a dime. No money, totally for free. And setup in a blink of an eye, ready to go with literally hundreds of free templates to use. WordPress is a blogging system that offers you so many free possibilities that even i haven’t discovered them all yet. But I think it would just take to much of your time to go into that in detail. Once you have setup your WordPress blog you will have a great time snooping around a huge tool box with all kinds of presents. It’s like ever lasting Christmas since the developers of WordPress are always ad new tools to the wide range there is already. The free tools come with a link to the developers website where you sure find a donation button if you find the tool useful. In the good spirit of the WordPress Community, make use of it. I will later on review some of the WordPress widgets and plug-ins here on the make how to dot com blog. Now as i already mentioned at the beginning of this article, to get started, you will need a server that hosts your new online business. And you will need a reliable server, one with the right spirit and a 24/7 chat support. That is for starters. Now what else should i been looking for when i decide where to host my website. I will make a little list for you what i consider important and add some explanation to it. The Ten Points That Matter In Web Hosting

1. It should have Site Transfer / Month at least 6000 GB. Why? Because you want traffic and traffic needs bandwidth

2. The Disc Storage should be at least 600 GB, sounds like a lot to you? You’ll need it once your business is running you don’t want to move your account anymore believe me. And once you have one site up and running why not try another niche with a different approach and another website?

3. Fantastico Software Package installed. Why so? Because for once that package includes WordPress besides many free CMS and other software presents and it will make it a five minutes job before you can start blogging.

4. A free coupon for Google AdWords, 50$ and another one for Yahoo Internet Marketing another 50$. Why? Because i told you so previously, it’s gonna cost you nothing, nada. These 100$ alone are already more than your first year hosting AND the 5$ setup fee for Google AdWords will cost you. As you see you’re already in the plus.

5. A life time free Domain Name. How so? Now since we sneaked out on the first year server costs, we don’t want to pay 10 – 30 $ every year for a domain name, especially not if we can get for free, and never ever have to pay a dime. Do we?

6. There should be at least 50 free Mysql Databases in your package. Sounds like a lot again. Yes but each installation of software on your package will need a database to function. So better have one over than start paying extra afterwards.

7. Another good thing to have is Unlimited Add-on Domains and Unlimited Sub Domains. What are those good for? Unlimited Add-on Domains means that you can host as many websites on your account as you wish. You will never have to buy another account again if you want to make a new web site or a new Internet marketing project. Unlimited sub domains mean you can add as many names to your website address (domain) as you like. e.g. sales.yoursite.com or support.yoursite.com. That doesn’t only look good and gives a potential customer confidence, but it also helps to get as many pages as possible listed in search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN and many other directories.

8. A good CP, or Control Panel that gives you a clean overview of your account and doesn’t drive you nuts looking for stuff.

9. A good server should provide POP3/POP3 Secure Email Support. Why? Because we simply don’t want other people to read our e-mails.

10. And finally you will need reliable and detailed web stats that tell you more than just how many visitors you had on your web site and a support that is there when you need it.

Ok, let’s make the final cut on all the scary dollar signs you see in this article.

• You start your own business and become your own boss. That must be on the plus side
• You get your own host where you can build as many websites as you want and pay only 84 $ for the first year. That’s right, that’s all 84 bucks, 6.95/month including all the services and features i have mentioned above plus so much more that it would take two pages to list it all up. But you can check it all out on their website at http://www.bluehost.com/ You can even test ride the whole system so you are sure everything is where you need it. The Demo Login is also a great opportunity to check out all the nice toys they offer without damaging ongoing projects on your one site or blog.
• You have your own domain name free for life.
• You login to your new account at BlueHost and open an account at Yahoo Search Marketing and follow the steps of the coupon system. That will make you the first 50$ to your plus account.
• Back to the control panel go the Google button and do the same again they will discard you 5$ setup fee from the 50 they give you, so you actually only get 45$ But still you didn’t do much yet.
• A half hour after you started your online business you are by now 11 $ on the plus side of the book.
• How is that for starters? You now have your own hosting account, your own blog with tons of free gadgets and internet marketing tools, a free domain name for life, an advertising account by Google, and another one by Yahoo and 11 Dollars in your pocket.
