Creative ways to make extra money
I have some ideas to help you think of creative ways to make extra money.
The economy is pretty sluggish right now and a lot of people are facing challenges paying the monthly bills. It’s not easy to make ends meet when it seems you have to spend more and more money on expenses and such. Compund that with the holiday season and the need to buy gifts and you have an awful lot of people wishing they could pull in some extra money.
I’m here to help with some easy and creative ways to make extra money for you!
Do you need a quick 100 extra bucks??? Are you looking to make a fast 200 or 300 bucks without spending a lot of time to get it???
It’s easy if you buckle down and do the things you need to do!
Here is one of many creative ways that won’t cost you a penny and can be done in your spare time.
Post ads on authority sites and free hosted blogs that have YOUR AFFILIATE LINKS pointing at products that you are promoting as an affiliate. You’ll earn a commission.
Some blogs and free hosted sites and web 2.0 sites have special powers and will rank on top of Google, MSN and Yahoo with next to no effort! All you need to do is follow a few simple rules and seo tricks to make your page rank on top. I’ll offer a condensed version of this.
1) Find a product form Clickbank, PayDotCom or Hydra Network that pays at least $20. in commission per sale (or lead) – web URL’s and resources listed at the bottom of this page
Turbulence Training is a product that looks good to promote – it pays $32.76 per sale – not bad.
2) Find a few keyword phrases of 3 words or longer that actually get traffic – careful as some long tail keywords don’t get enough traffic
Since this product is about lose fat, gain muscle and fat loss – we’ll try those as starting points to find keywords
Click Here to see the product sales page!
The free wordtracker tool is pretty good for finding these long tail high traffic phrases. Here is a search for “lose fat” which we’ll use as an example – how to lose belly fat gets around 119 searches a month – wo knows if that is accurate – but at least it isn’t showing 5 or 10.
So go to www.Squidoo.com and make a nice page with “how to lose belly fat” in the title – at the top of thepage – in the middle of the page and in a LINK on the page – perhaps even going to your AFFILIATE LINK!
Then simply surround those words with afew sentences.
How about asking questions?
Do you feel fat? Is your belly the butt of bad jokes? Are you afraid to take your shirt off???
Come on – it’s easy to write this stuff! And then tell them about the product which wil help them lose fat and make their belly more attractive!
After you publish your page comes the important part.
You need to link to that page a few times from other web sites with how to lose belly fat in the link text.
If you have your own web sites you can do that. A link or two to a squidoo page is often enough to get it indexed and up to the top of the rankings fast.
If you are looking for freebie links – try out the all free article announcements blog called I Want My Free Site. You’ll need to join the newsletter in order to get the secret code to register – but after that it’s all free and you can post in this blog any time you want! It’s a great way to get a text link that has your keywords in it! Oh – and while you are at it – go ahead and make sure the POST TITLE also has your keyword in it! That’ll help you get the top ranking even faster!
Now – that’s about it for this helpful tip on creative ways to make extra money. It’s not that hard and if you do a few of these pages every day – you’ll soon have some commissions adding up.
Some people actually make a living doing this simple and free approach.
Then again if you want more and better results you can always enhance it by getting more links from places such as the Article Undeground announcement blogs – a network of sites you can get linked on. That link will show you a video that shows step by step how to get text links and traffic from the article announcement blogs.
That’s all for this quick tip on a creative way to make extra money fast!

What a great resource this site is. I will be returning frequently. On your latest post about articles, I would just add..when you make feeder sites like squidoo..what I do is promote those sites just like you would your money site…when they become more popular the more traffic you will recieve from google.

Great ideas Mike, and well explained. I one of those people who tend to complicate things and forget that this stuff can actually be really simple…

Thanks. That is by far the cheapest way to start an online business. Minimal low capital and potential lifetime profit. People should start exhausting these free avenue to profit in their quest for online business.

Good point – you should spend some effort on getting links pointed at your pages on squidoo, hubpages etc. That will help youget more traffic. Usually only a few will give you a big boost since these sites have authoritystatus and rank easily – often without linking help :’>

I hesitate to ask this, but what the heck…
Re: “Post ads on authority sites” What is an
authority site?
Thanks for the excellent information here.
By Mike Liebner on December 10th, 2008 at 10:26 am
Authority Sites are generally those that are ‘in favor” with Google. For example http://www.squidoo.com and http://www.hubpages.com are getting lots of love from Goo. They are free hosted so you can post your own stuff and in many cases you’ll see free traffic because Google will trust these sites and rank their stuff higher than sites they don’t trust
So when possible – go after LINKS and POSTS on sites that are “authoritative”!

Nice to come across Mike’s post here. I have been a follower of his mikeliebner blog for a while and it does deliver

I have been trying to do things like this with Squidoo but not too much luck in it ranking high up in Google without having to build a lot of backlinks, which can be tricky or time consuming. I’ve got a magic formula that works on Associated Content and my own websites that makes things I want to be #1 for my keywords…but google just hates my squidoo pages for some reason! Any insight on that?
