Four types of sites bring in income to the average net-prenuer: Content Sites, Sales Sites, Advise Sites, Review Sites. Of these, we will discuss the setting up, merits, and difficulties of  Advise-giving Site in this article.

Internet has become the synonym for an all-knowing teacher for many people. A benevolent teacher to who they can go for advise on any topic, a teacher who offers then authentic and authoritative teaching in confidence, without violating their privacy. Thus setting up an advise-giving site on life issues is a good way of attracting people and also of generating ad-revenue.

Advise-sites can be set up even on non-life issues, such as how to plan family budgets, vegetarian lifestyle, hobby development, taking a tour, buying a camera, or fixing a leaking faucet. Sky is the limit to the number of topics available.

The focused theme of your website/blog will soon give you high rank in search engines, which will in turn bring you increased traffic which would mean higher ad clicks.

Setting Up The Site: While it can be set up as a normal website, I strongly recommend that you use a stand-alone blog for this work. This will give you greater control and freedom. The blog software will help with fast updating. Buying your own domain (which is not expensive these days) and setting up your own WordPress-based blog would be the best.

Essential Facilities:  One and the same subject, say a given hobby, would eventually result in many advises sought and many given. If all of them are easily available to the reader, it would keep him longer on the website (which leads to increased ad-clicks), would save them much time, and would save you from repeatedly answering questions that have already been answered.

I recommend WordPress software for such a work not only because the software is powerful, but also because thousands of add-ons are available to do all kinds of tasks. Add-ons that show "related articles" or "other important articles" will surely increase the way your site helps others.

Let Helping Be The Motive: It is easy to become mechanical if you give advise only for the sake of it, or only for the sake of money. All good advise should come out of one’s passion for the subject and also for the passion to help others. When you do this, you will automatically attract readers, which will in turn increase your income. Thus an advise-site should bring revenue as a result of genuinely helping people.

The Choice Of The Subject: While it is possible to offer advise on any subject out of the numerous possible ones, not all subjects are equally useful, sought-after, or profitable. Thus one should study other advise-sites and the advertisements on them before going ahead. Also, one should assess which subject, among the ones of one’s interest, would bring better revenue.

An advise-giving blog is one of the best methods for bringing net-based revenue. Find your subjects, launch into the work, persist. You will eventually see revenue coming in.

Four types of websites bring income for the average net-prenuer: content sites, sales sites, advise sites, and review sites. Of these, we will discuss review sites in this article.

A review-site is basically a website or (preferably) a blog where you review products or services on a regular basis. Advertisements are placed on strategic locations so that people who visit your website click on them when they see a product or service in which they are interested.

Reviews can be of anything, beginning with book-reviews up to software reviews. The only precaution to take is to review in an area (or areas) where you can do so authoritatively and where you can keep giving new reviews as long as your site is alive. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of review sites:

Advantages: Most power-users on the net, before they buy a product, would prefer to go to a review site and get information (pro and con) from someone who has had hand-on experience with that product, service, or software. The trend is only going to increase. Thus you will never have a shortage of visitors to your site.

Another advantage is that advertisers display information that is related to the product range, which will result in greater click-through and greater revenue for you. What is more, many people who sell the reviewed products would provide you direct ads where you earn high revenue if a customer clicks and purchases a product. Thus a review site can bring in multiple streams of income if it is set up properly.

Precautions: Unlike a content site where most of the content will remain useful for years after they are posted, a review becomes outdated as soon as the product reviewed becomes obsolete. While books might remain in print for a decade, software or electronic products might have a shelf-life of only 3 years, by which time a new version of the product or a new product by a competitor might overtake the first one.

This means that you should pick up a product-range where you are in continually in touch with the latest. This can be something as simple as reviewing free software. It does not cost you anything other than your time, but a review site for free software will attract plenty of users and also plenty of software-advertisements. Those who look for reviews of freeware often buy commercial package and this will bring you additional review.

Setting it Up: Setting up a review site is slightly different from setting up a content or advise site. This is because people who come to your website for review of a product would like to read your review of related products also. Thus whenever you review an item, you should see that all relevant and related reviews.This means that each review should be linked with related ones.

If you use a popular blog software such as WordPress, then you will find it very easy to set up a review website.

Persist, and you will find that a review of practically any useful topic will eventually bring you good net-income.

Establish A Net-shop For Net-income

Net income is a reality in the lives of hundreds of thousands of net-prenuers, and you can be the next.

Four types of sites bring in income to the average net-prenuer: Content Sites, Sales Sites, Advise Sites, Review Sites. Of these, we will discuss the setting up, merits, and difficulties of  Sales Site in this article.

A Sales Website, portal, or blog is basically a net-shop that you set up for selling anything from books up to electronic gadgets. Ebay is a good example of a massive worldwide sales portal, but one need not start so big for success. You can star with a simple book and accessories shop and grow from there.

Numerous companies on the net allow you to start a net-shop. All what you need is a membership. Once you log in, they will provide the software to set up the shop. Alternately, if you are good with websites or blogs, you can take membership of a number of such agencies, and insert their code on to your website or blog and the shop will be there.

One of the safest method would be to create a shop using Amazon.com membership. Amazon is the largest net-based book distributor. Once you become a member, you can use many types of codes to set up your shop. My pet book shop would be a book-review site on a given range of subjects (history, archeology, music, creative writing, etc) which can then be promoted as a niche website on search engines. Once people come to your site for reading the review, many of them will become interested in the Amazon book advertisements that you display on your site through your code.

Advantage: a sales site always brings in more money than other kinds of sites because what you get is a commission on the sales price. This will always be more than click-through income of the advertisement sites. What is more, the processing of money, inventory, dispatch, refunds, and other claims are always handled by the parent company, leaving you totally free to spend time in promoting your shop.

Difficulties: compared to content-based sites, where you get money right from the start through ad-clicks, sales sites take a bit of time to bring in income. You need to promote your site, become established as a niche player, build up trust, and attract plenty of customers before you start getting income. Thus you need to wait for some time before you can expect to earn, but once you start earning, the take-home amount would be more than what people get from ad-clicks on content sites.

Precautions: Do not try to establish a super-market to sell everything in the world. You would find it impossible to get high rating for such website on search engines, and without that your site is useless. On the contrary, establish a niche-market that caters to a specialized audience or need. For example, you might want to establish a website dedicated to freelance writers. There you can sell books, guides, courses, writers supplies, and other things that a writer needs. If you are able to offer a comprehensive range targeted at writers, and if you promote the site among freelancers, you will find the flow of traffic, and the resultant sales, building up quickly.

Preparation: I strongly urge you to visit a number of sale-sites, starting with mega sites like Amazon and Ebay. Then visit sales sites in those niche areas where you feel you can start one or more shops. Study all of them. Take a bit of time. Better be late than be sorry.

Once all this is done, launch the shop, promote it regularly, and maintain it regularly. Believe in yourself. The Income will start coming in sooner than you expected.

Income-generating Content Website/Blog

Net-based Income-generation Course 3, Lesson 3

 Shastri JC Philip is an acknowledged Guru in numerous fields of studies, and has a worldwide following. Join the mailing-list today itself so as to be the first to get his free courses.

Establishing an income-generating content-website or content-blog is one of the fastest methods to get a net-derived income. In this article we explain the how of doing it.

A content-website or a content-blog is a website where people come to read or obtain articles on a given topic. Since they come searching for specific content, they click on advertisements on the website if an ad related to their query is seen. Since google adwords are displayed based upon a thorough spidering of the content, in all possibility some ads will match the query with which they come to the site.

Since an increasing number of advertisers are now resorting to spidering the content, there will be increasing match between the content, the visitor, and the advertisements displayed. This is one of the easiest methods for getting a net-based income, but taking care of a few things will help optimize income-generation.

Topical Website/Blog: if you offer an unsorted potpourri of all kind of articles, practically nobody will visit your website. That is because people visit a site to get authentic information and very few of them are likely to visit a site that does not have a focus. Just as people go to medical shops, hardware shops, the grocers, and the stationers for specific items, it is the same way they behave on the net.

Also, most websites/blogs get visitors through search-engine. If your site is a mixture of topics, they will be so low on search engines that nobody will come to your sites. All spider-based search engines (all the major ones are spider-based) are known to give high weightage to content-websites that have a focus — narrow or general.

Thus is you wish to launch one or more content-websites, then make each one focus on a general or specific theme. The theme might be as broad as education, medicine, or history. It can also be as narrow as cancer, distance education in theology, or the history of sea-pirates. What is important is to maintain this focus, which will give you high ranking with search engines. This would in turn mean larger number of visitors and increased ad revenue.

Selected Topics: not all topical websites are made equal when it comes to advertisement income. That is because there aren’t many advertisements on some topics, while for other topics there is a strong competition — which in turn increases the "Value" of advertisement space on your website. An increased value means increased income for you.

This means that instead of launching a website on any area of expertise you should select that area that is likely to give the best returns. For example, instead of starting a website on the ecological contribution of polar bears, it would be far more profitable to start one on health and exercise.

Regular Posting: search engines love those websites and blogs that are regularly updated with new content. Thus I strongly urge you to post 3 to 5 articles per week in the first year. You can settle to 3 articles per week, once your site has at least 150 to 200 articles.

This means that in addition to an-income generating theme, you should also choose a subject for your website/blog on which you can write regularly and in an authoritative manner. This might seem difficult, but the world of net craves for information on all conceivable subjects and there is a scope for a broad range of content.

Choose wisely, and you will be on your way to a decent net-based income.

What Net-income Plan Will Suit You

Net-based Income-generation Course 3, Lesson 2

Net-based income generation is a real possibility and there are literally hundreds of thousands who today live off the net. I am one of them, and let me tell you how you can go about setting up one more more sites that will help you to do the same.

While many kinds of sites can bring income, not all of them are suitable for everyone. I have identified four main types of websites and I introduce the strengths and weaknesses of each.

1. Sales Portal: A sales portal or a web-shop is basically an electronic shop. This is definitely an attractive income-plan, and there are any number of user-friendly software or net companies that will help help a person to set up a basic net-based shop quickly.

The ease of setting up net-shops without having to invest a penny from your pocket on the inventory is the greatest attraction of Sales Portals. The returns can be good after you establish you reputation. However, Once set up, you will have spend one to six months promoting your website in search engines and directories before you begin to get an income. This is because you need to compete with numerous other establishments who are doing the same. While advertisement-income comes to you as soon as someone clicks on them, the income from a sales-site is realized only after an actual sale is made. While the former is fast, the latter give higher income.

2. Content Portal: setting up a website or more on specific topic, such as tourism, music, medical facts, or any specific topic, and then populating it with Google ad words is another method. In addition to Google you can use many other advertisement services. The site can start giving income in less than 3 months.

Revenue from ad-clicks is the main source of income on content portals. Google spiders your site continually to match the advertisement with the content on a page, and also the country from which a person is browsing the website. Thus there is high probability of clicks on google ads on such sites. What is more, other advertisement providers are also evolving methods to offer the best possible ads so as to increase the ad-click revenue.

The advantage of a content-portal is that you can expect ad-clicks as soon people start visiting your site. You need not be an established writer or shop to earn money. While content-portals bring money fast, the net income will always be less than that of the sales-portal after it gets established.

3. Advise Portal: if you are good at any subject where people seek advise such as medicine, health, career, website optimization, or anything that interests people, you can set up an advise portal, populate it with advertisements and generate an income.

People always keep looking for advise on numerous subjects ranging from pet-care up to University admission. Thus an advise portal can quickly attract readers if you know your subject and if you write regularly on it. What is more, advertisement revenue begins to collect from the very first day.

The main hurdle is in deciding what subject to give advise in. Often you might be good in field, but might erroneously think you are good in another. A bit of self-examination, asking others, etc. would help.

4. Review Portal: setting up a website where you review a product, such as freeware, commercial software, cars, electronic cameras, musical instruments etc, and populating it with advertisements is a good method of income. Since the website has a focused theme, it helps the advertiser to offer focused advertisement, which increases your revenue generation possibilities.

Revenue from ad-clicks is the main source of income on a review portals. Google spiders your site continually to match the advertisement with the content on a page, and also the country from which a person is browsing the website. Thus there is high probability of clicks on google ads on such sites. What is more, other advertisement providers are also evolving methods to offer the best possible ads so as to increase the ad-click revenue.

The advantage of a review-portal is that you can expect ad-clicks as soon people start visiting your site. You need not be an established writer or shop to earn money. While content-portals bring money fast, the net income will always be less than that of the sales-portal after it gets established. On the other hand, writing reviews is a specialized job and you need to have some knowhow of the product-range (books, bicycles, motorbikes, software, consumer products, electronic cameras) before you can write in an authentic manner.

In summary, those websites that give income fast would also give only a lower return compared to those that take longer to give return. Thus it is up to you to choose what you are going to do. Do it thoughtfully. 

Your Net Based Income Plan

The way net has changed things has amazed everyone, and has resulted in the coinage of the phrase "disruptive technologies". Disruptive here does not mean destructive, but rather it points to the way in which entirely new approaches have been developed to do things.

One of the Disruptive Technologies or approaches is the home-based or net-based methods of earning a livelihood — and a very decent one at that.  Conventional methods of livelihood require you to toil from early morning till late at night, away from home, five or more days a week — with very little flexibility or freedom. While this was fine up to the last generation, the twenty-first century demands more freedom and flexibility in jobs.

What is more, while people with physical or mental infirmities did not need a means of independent living till a few years ago, for the family took care of most such people, today many of them need to support themselves through a reasonable method of generating income. In additional, Many people require a work-at home at flexible hours so as to give them the liberty of indulging in their pet hobbies and passions, or even for taking care of their family, older folk, a bedridden person, or a member of the family who needs special attention.

The answer to all of them in the net-age is a net-based job. While many companies small and big are there that offer net-based jobs, such as freelance article-writing, these do not fully liberate the job seeker. The best solution is to develop one’s own income generating website. This requires a carefully thought out strategy, because a website does not automatically generate income — else almost the whole world would have moved to easy net-based income.

What one needs in an "Income Plan" based upon the net, setting up one more more websites that do one or more income-generation tasks for you. This involves assessing which of the following would suit you:

1. Sales Portal: setting up a website or more that is basically an electronic shop. This is definitely an attractive income-plan, and there are any number of user-friendly software or net companies that will help help a person to set up a basic net-based shop quickly. Once set up, you will have spend one to six months promoting your website in search engines and directories before you begin to get an income.

2. Content Portal: setting up a website or more on specific topic, such as tourism, music, medical facts, or any specific topic, and then populating it with Google ad words is another method. In addition to Google you can use many other advertisement services. The site can start giving income in less than 3 months.

3. Review Portal: setting up a website where you review a product, such as freeware, commercial software, cars, electronic cameras, musical instruments etc, and populating it with advertisements is a good method of income. Since the website has a focused theme, it helps the advertiser to offer focused advertisement, which increases your revenue generation possibilities.

4. Advise Portal: if you are good at any subject where people seek advise such as medicine, health, career, website optimization, or anything that interests people, you can set up an advise portal, populate it with advertisements and generate an income.

What is important is to decide what kind of website or websites suit you. Just as a sales portal is not for everyone, an advise portal is not for all. Some will find a content portal easy to maintain, while others will find a review portal more convenient. What is important is to find that kind of work that offers you maximum convenience.

Once you find it, stick to it till you succeed, and you will not regret.
