1. Register with content sites, such as HubPages, Squidoo and Helium. These sites have programs for writers to create free content. They make money for the writer in several different ways. For example, HubPages lets you place Google Adsense advertisements on your content page. The site also encourages product links to Amazon and eBay. The writer shares revenue with the content site. With HubPages, for example, the writer receives roughly 60 percent of the revenue. Squidoo and Helium have similar structures, although Helium only uses Google Adsense.
2. Start a blog. Write new articles often and engage with your visitors in the comments section to maintain reader interest. The blog can cover technical topics, like electronic devices, or more personal ones, such as family life and relationships.As you build up readers, you can make money by offering related products for sale either directly with your own web store or as an affiliate for another web store. For example, if you blog about animals, you can create an affiliate link to a site that sells dog products. The affiliate pays you an agreed-upon amount for every product that you help sell. You also can sell ad space for related products on your blog.
3. Write ebooks. An ebook is an informational electronic book. For example, if you are a dog trainer, you can write an ebook about training dogs. Some writers sell their ebooks, but you can offer one for free. Typically, this is done to give your readers something of tangible value while also offering other products or services that they may purchase. You can use affiliate programs and Google Adsense as other income streams. With an ebook, you can provide valuable information for free and promote your own 'more valuable' product, which comes with a fee. For example, a free dog training ebook could be used to promote your dog training videos.
