How to Make $3,000 a Month in Passive Income

1. Choose the method, or methods, of how you would like to make a passive income. Affiliate sales are commissions on products, usually downloadable, paid to you when a sale is made through your affiliate code. Click per action, CPA, is cash paid when a visitor to your site performs a certain action such as completing a form, providing contact information or signing up for a service. The difference between affiliate sales and CPA is you don't have to make a sale for CPA. Advertising income is earned when a visitor to your site clicks on an advertisement. Set goals for each of the methods that total $100 per day. You might decide that $10 per day in advertising revenue, $25 in CPA and $65 in affiliate sales commissions is doable.
2. Select the products you wish to promote. Find affiliate products through Clickbank, Commission Junction, Amazon.com, or search by brand name affiliate. Companies such as Groupon or Angie's List have affiliate programs as well. Ensure the product has a nice size payout. If the commission is only $10 you'll have to sell 300 products a month, or 10 a day to make $3,000 per month. If the commission is $25 per sale, you only have to sell four per day to make your number.

3. Monetize your website with Google AdSense. Research keyword phrases that relate to your selected method and products you wish to promote. Google AdSense keyword tool tells you how many searches were made for a keyword phrase and the competition for that keyword phrase from advertisers. You can find out what the cost per click is for the phrase on the Google AdSense traffic estimator. That is what the advertiser pays. That pay is split between Google and you. You don't have be an advertiser to use the tool. Keyword phrase selection is important. The search engines will place you higher on the search results page, that means more visitors and a higher potential to earn your $3,000 per month.
4. Register a domain that includes your main keyword phrase. For example if you've selected a weight loss product you might want to register 'www.loseweightfast.com' or 'www.tipstoloseweightfast.com' if you're promoting a book on homemade dog food, your domain might be 'www.healthyhomemadedogfood.com.'
5. Find a Web host company. Set up your website or blog. For newcomers to Internet marketing a blog is less of a hassle than a static website. Fantastico is a program on most control panels at your Web host. In Fantastisco, select a blog platform. With a click of your mouse your blog will be set up on your domain. Write blog posts that include your keyword phrase in the title of the post and once in each paragraph. The blog posts should have your affiliate links to the products you're promoting and your CPA links.
6. Promote your website or blog by submitting it to the main search engines. Write articles about the topic of your website or blog. Include a link to your blog using your keyword phrase as the text. Submit the articles to directories. This sets up backlinks pointing to your website.
7. Use other methods of traffic generation such as pinging your website or blog, setting up a network of free sites such as HubPages, Xanga, Weebly and Squidoo and posting on discussion forums with your keyword phrase linking back to your blog. The more targeted visitors to your site, the higher the probability you'll make $100 a day.

How to Earn More with AdSense

1. Attract relevant ads by keeping the keywords on your website thorough. For example, if your website is about 'international adoption' and you frequently use the word 'adoption' you may get ads for lots of different types of adoptions, including pet adoptions. It's best to use the complete term, 'international adoption.' This way you will get relevant ads that pertain to your reader's interests.
2. Place your Google AdSense ads strategically near your content. As people are reading your content, they will look at what is nearby, but they will not scroll down the screen to look at an ad.

3. Try blending your ads in with the background on your website. People are sometimes less likely to click on an ad that looks like an ad, but if it looks like a part of your website, they may click. Google AdSense provides different palettes that will allow you to change the format of the ad.
4. Create pages with content that has great value to your reader. The more the reader gets from your page, the more likely he is to click on one of the Google AdSense ads. If your page does not provide new information, then the reader is less likely to click on the ad.
5. Consider placing ads near the top left of your screen. There is research to suggest that this is where people look first when they go to a website.
6. Use the Google AdSense preview tool to see how your ad looks before you put it on your site.
