How to Make Money by Building a Website

to make money by building a website is the most common area of interest when I tell people I have an Internet business. If this is something you have also been wondering about, here is exactly what you want to know and how everything works together to create multiple streams of income and how to make money from a website.

Income Stream Number One: Google Adsense

AdSense is the name given to the system Google uses to put AdWords ads on non-Google sites. I'm sure most of you have noticed, and probably even clicked on Google ads. These ads are incredibly powerful because they are highly targeted. When anyone clicks on these links, they are taken to the advertiser's site. AdWords currently generate 95% of Google's income.(Don't worry about the difference between AdSense and Adwords) The point I am making here is that it is in Google's best interest to make sure the ads on my site attract the attention of my visitors and are geared to their needs and interests.

Whenever someone clicks on these ads, I receive a commission. Sometimes it's $.05 and sometimes it could be $5.00 depending how much the advertiser is paying for that particular ad. The point is, every minute of every day I am making money from Google adsense.
Within 3 months of signing up for this program, I started receiving a monthly check from Google for use of my virtual real estate space and they continue arriving each and every month.

Income Stream Number Two: Chitika eMiniMalls

Chitika is another form of internet advertising. This ad, rather than being a static picture, is an interactive way for visitors to receive a broad range of information about the products shown in the ad. Once again, by allowing Chitika to advertise on my site, I receive a commission from any product sold from this site and this is how I make money from this source.

Income Stream Number Three: Affiliate Programs

An affiliate business is one of the easiest ways to get your feet wet in the internet business. Sign up with a merchant who has an affiliate program and send visitors to a merchant's website that you are representing. If they buy or complete a required action, such as filling out a form or a survey, I receive a commission.

Income Stream Number Four: Resale Rights

There are many products, software and digital products available for resale that I can use on my site. Many of these are offered free of charge as bonuses when other items are purchased. Many are given away when you sign up for ezines or free e-courses. If you are wondering why they are free and I am allowed to resell them, the answer is viral marketing. Viral marketing is called just that because it spreads like a virus. The producer or author embeds their name, business and website in every product. Each time someone buys a resale item, their name is seen in the book or product, hence the name: Viral Marketing. By giving away resale rights, the producer of the product is essentially getting free advertising. At the same time, I am getting the right to sell that product on my website and this is another way how to make money.

Income Stream Number Five: Clickbank

Clickbank is another form of an affiliate program. However, Clickbank deals mainly in digital products such as software and e-books that can be downloaded. Whenever someone buys a Clickbank product I receive a commission. These can range from $5.00 to $25.00 depending on the product.

Income Stream Number Six: Promote Your Own Products

If you already have a product to promote, whether it is a service or product, you could start promoting this immediately as soon as your website is up and running.

This is only the tip of the iceberg. The longer I am in this business, the more I am seeing how other people create multiple streams of income and how to make money from this website.
