Probably the easiest and most legitimate way to start making money online is by writing (typing.)

Believe it or not, you do not need any writing skills and you certainly don't need to have any kind of a writing background to get started.

As a matter of fact, this is exactly how I made my first money online, while serving in the Army. As long as you can type 300 words or so that make sense and are not full of grammatical errors (thank goodness for spell check) you can do this and make some good money doing so!

Just think of the Internet as a whole. Sure audio and video are getting popular, but the majority of the Internet is composed of text... approximately 300 word articles about everything under the sun. Naturally many webmasters don't want to write all of this, so in many cases they pay others to do this, normally somewhere around $12 per 300 word article!

Just to give you an idea of the time investment, the average person with moderate typing skills can type a 300 word article in about 5 minutes once they've researched the topic!

So, you do a little research on the topic(s) they need an article(s) on (they typically provide links to research material) and then you write the article, it's that easy. There really is no catch. Sure, it takes some effort, but it's legitimate and MANY people are doing this everyday to earn some extra money!

I started off online about 5 years ago writing and was earning several hundred dollars a month before moving onto other things and you can just as easily, but you will need to know a few things to get started.

For that beginning advice, I highly recommend a report that a good friend of mine and an excellent writer, Courtney Ramirez, wrote called "Content Chef." Courtney provides all of that critical advice that took me months to figure out and she provides the groundwork to get started right away!

You could easily start earning money writing online Today after reading Courtney's excellent report! You can get it at:

And it comes highly recommended! Many, many, many people get paid to write online every single day. If you're serious about making money online I highly recommend you start off just like I did, writing short articles for cash.

There are endless possibilities when it comes to owning your own website. You can create one for your own personal use to show your family and friends, promote your own companies products, make money by promoting affiliates or various other money makers. No matter what you plan to make a website for this is how to do it.

If you aren't looking to learn all of the technical aspects, you may want to take a look at the featured product below.

Step 1: Come up with an idea for your website. Try to make it something you are interested in and/or something you have at least some knowledge of. If you have no knowledge on the subject but you really want to create a website on the subject it is possible just be sure you research things before you give out information.

Step 2: Think of one good keyword or keyword phrase. If you are building a website about inline skates your keyword should be something like "inline skates." When choosing your keyword keep your competitors in mind. If you are building a website about computers you may want to think twice before picking the keyword 'computers'. If you have plenty of money for marketing your website then you may be able to be successful with a very competitive keyword but if you are an average person just getting started you may want to think of something a little less competitive like 'computer information.'

A very valuable resource you should use ( I use it just about every day for one thing or another) is the Keyword Selector Tool at SEO Book. Type your keyword into the very simple tool, this will show you an estimated daily and monthly search volume for that keyword, related keywords and much more.

I would suggest picking a keyword that is RELEVANT to the theme of your site that has somewhere between 2,000 and 10,000 searches a month to get started. This is because of what I said before, competition. If you are starting your first website you DO NOT need to waste your time competing with Dell or Microsoft. Once you choose your Keyword or Keyword phrase either write it down or memorize it, this will be a very important part of getting your website known.

Step 3: Now that you have the idea for your website and the keyword, you need a domain (the actual website address, ie. http://www.yoursite.com) Now you need to think of a domain name. When considering your domain name, try to think of one that has each word of your keyword or keyword phrase in it, for instance, if your keyword is computer information the idea domain would be http://www.computerinformation.com. Of course most domains are already taken so you will have to add something in, a suggestion would be http://www.computer-information-now.com . Do not get too stuck on picking the right domain name, although it is better to have your keyword in your domain, it will not badly damage your marketing.

You register domains through what is called a Registrar. Choosing a bad registrar can cause problems in the future. I have always used the same registrar called 1and1, so I honestly couldn't tell you all about every one out there. 1and1 provides me with everything I have needed in my online business and I would recommend them to anyone. For this instruction I will use 1and1 for the examples as this is the registrar I am familiar with. To find out which domains are available go to 1and1 homepage, on the right in the middle of the page there is a spot to check domain availability, you simply type in the domain you are interested in and it will tell you if it is available or not.

Step 4: Now that you have chosen your domain name you will need to register it. Right now, one domain on 1and1 costs 6 dollars per year. This is a very good price, I think just about everyone in the world can afford to spend six dollars a year to own a website that could possibly bring in 10,000 times that in a year.

On the previous step I explained how to find out if a domain is available or not. Go back to the 1and1 website, type in the domain you have chosen and just follow the simple steps. You will have to choose a hosting package, since you are probably brand new to all of this you may want to choose the basic package but if you know you are going to stick with this you will eventually want to purchase the business package.

Step 5: Now you have come up with the idea for your site, chosen a good keyword, chosen a domain and registered it. Now how do you actually create the website? I think this is the step that scares most people away from the idea of making your own website, but it is actually very easy. You DO NOT have to know HTML ( Hypertext Markup Language - The code that actually makes a website work) to build a website, you DO NOT have to know anything about Website Design, all you have to know is what I have told you already and what I am about to tell you.

If you do know how HTML works it is possible to make your website straight through your host but it will take you 10 times more time and effort. There is software out there that has been created for you to use that will create the HTML for you. I use a program called Dreamweaver.

Dreamweaver is said to be the number one website building software on the market. This is the only software I have used and I can honestly say it is INCREDIBLE. When I first purchased this software I had no idea how to use it. It took a few hours to learn the basics and a few weeks to learn the more advanced stuff but anyone can learn how to use it just by messing around with it and seeing what things do.

Dreamweaver also provides a good training tutorial on their website. Purchasing this software will be the biggest investment you will make in the whole process of making a website but in the long run it is WELL worth the investment. If you get stuck you can always call them.

Well that's it, if you have followed all of these steps just how I mentioned, you now have your very own unique, operational Website.

Google Adwords is by far the biggest advertising giant on the internet today. It is arguably the #1 advertising giant offline as well. The beautiful thing about setting up a Google Adwords account is that you can easily compete with the top companies by spending very little money. So, without further ado, here is the step-by-step process.

1. Sign up for AdWords.

2. Once you are at the account setup page, choose standard edition and click 'next'.

3. Now choose English as the language you would like to target and countries and territories for the targeted location, now click 'continue'.

4. Select 'All Countries and Territories' and place it into the selected Countries box then press 'continue'.

5. Now create the actual Google adwords ad. Make sure the title is relevant to the keywords you will be targeting. Create an eye catching description that will make people think that they NEED to click. Now click continue.

6. Now choose as many keywords as you can think of and place them in the keyword box provided. If the suggested keywords that Google provides to the right, are relevant to your campaign then you can choose them. Once you have selected all of the relevant keywords for your campaign, click 'continue'.

7. Choose the currency that you would like to fund your Google Adwords campaign. Set your daily budget, this is the maximum ammount of money you are willing to pay each day. Once your adwords account reaches this number no more ads will be shown untill the following day. Now you will need to set your maximum cost per click or CPC. This is the maximum ammount of money you are willing to pay each time someone clicks on your ad. Once you are done, click 'continue'.

8. Seclect continue once again and follow the simple steps to complete your google adwords account setup.

Now that you have created your account, you can use the simple technique I use to make Easy Money with Google Adwords.

One of the hottest things to hit the Internet since ... Windows; Weblogs? It seems like anytime you speak with someone about the Internet the word "blog" comes up. So what is so special about them and how can you create a free blog?

Lets start by talking about what exactly a blog is and talk a little about how they came about. The word 'Blog' comes from the word 'Weblog' which was coined by Jorn Barger in 1997. The beginning of free blogs was sometime in the early 90's when people would make a running journal of their lives. In the mid 90's it began to be a little more popular and as of November 2006 there were an estimated 60 Million free blogs that people had created!!!!

So why do millions of people do this? Of course one person has a different reason than the other but I think most do it for fun. You can create a free blog on just about any topic from health to business to se_. You can use them as a reference for yourself, to show family or friends and/or to make money blogging .

You do not have to know anything at all about Internet Marketing, html or anything else to start one. When you hear the phrase "Free Blog" you do not have to worry about any hidden cost like most things that are advertised as free. You REALLY do not need any money at all to start one.

So how do you start a free blog? All you have to do is go to a blog provider like WordPress.com or Blogger.com and sign up, that's it! They walk you through it and it is actually very easy.

So how can I make money after I create my free blog? The easiest way to do this is to sign up for Google Adsense and place google ads on your blog. The ads will automatically show up with relevant ads to your site. Every time someone clicks on one of them you get paid.

The amount of money you make from each click depends on how much the advertiser paid google to show their ad. You will notice that markets that tend to generate more money will pay better. For instance, real estate and debt consolidation websites normally generate over a dollar per click, where a tourism site may only generate 30 cents on average. Another way to make money with a free blog is to promote affiliates.
