People are constantly looking for easy ways to make money online. It's difficult to do this from scratch as building and maintaining a website can be overwhelming. There's so much hassle you have to deal with if you own websites, like coding, maintenance, support and not to mention the time it takes to set up these systems.

I'm going to walk you through 3 Simple Methods to Make Money Online

Method #1 - eBay- No doubt the most well-known method for making money online.

You simply find stuff to sell, like old stuff from your basement, stuff you bought cheaply at yard sales, etc. You just put that up on eBay and sell it, and hopefully make a nice profit. With this method though, you still have to deal with your own store on eBay and you have to handle the auctions and customers. This can actually be quite a hassle, and with eBay introducing their new selling rules, things have become dearer and thus people are losing business and making fewer profits.

Method #2 - Bum Marketing- Be warned about this method...

If you are even half-lazy, this is not for you. It takes A LOT of hard work. If you don't like hard work, skip to Method #3

This method is maybe not as well-known, but it works and people are making thousands. It's basically based on using only free methods to generate revenue on the internet. The main way to make money with bum marketing is through article marketing. You basically find a product to promote through an affiliate program, and write articles about that subject, about people's problems and how this product you're promoting can help solve these problems.
I can't really go more in-depth than I do here in one article.

As I said, if you don't like hard work, this next method is for you.

Method #3 - Stealth Money maker - the automatic money making system

When you visit the site, you will be asked to enter your name and email in exchange for a FREE e-book which in itself holds an extremely valuable money making strategy. Basically it is a step-by-step guide that explains some simple and useful techniques that you can implement with very little effort and still generate a huge profit or income in your online marketing business.
Now this is where things start to get interesting. After downloading the free guide, you get another chance to download a huge collection of internet marketing e-books, software, ad graphics, and audios-videos (worth $10,000) for only $50. You will be totally blown away by this massive collection, since I've seen some of them are actually sold separately for around $15-$30 each.

There are almost 200+ downloadable products in this collection. These are state of the art products worth their weight in gold. With that, you are also given a chance to promote your own money making website, which can you believe it is already set up for you with your own payment button. This means that every time someone purchases from your website, you get the $50 paid directly to your payment account without sharing it with the owner. Not only this but there is no hidden costs and the system will be making money for you for the rest of your life. This is an automatic money making system that will bring in between a hundred and two hundred dollars a day.

The owner also provides tons of marketing tools and resources and basically shows you exactly how to promote the product. He acts like a mentor helping you with anything you need plus you will never have to deal with any of the sales you make. The system does that for you. So he will also send follow-up emails that contain your website address. In other words, he is also marketing and selling the product for you!

Well we've all been there! Or at least I know I have. I joined my first affiliate program about 18 months ago and thought "this is it!" - I confidently expected the cash to start rolling in within hours.

Why the confidence. Well I'd just signed up with one of the top 10 affiliate programs (according to its promotional page!) and had also signed up with Google Adwords - so all I'd done was put up an ad and a few keywords. How easy was that? And now I just needed to wait for the avalanche of customers clicking on my ad and sending my affiliate sales counter into meltdown.

Ummmmmm.....

It didn't work.

What?

I couldn't believe it. I had the expected stampede of "customers" but no sales. It was my Google Ads cost that went into meltdown! I was dumbfounded. What had gone wrong? Perhaps this whole thing about making money online with affiliate programs was a load of hyped up rubbish anyway. Yes that must be it. I knew it was too good to be true. Huh. To think I'd fallen for that.

But somehow I had this nagging feeling - it should work. Why didn't it? It seems so logical. Put up an advert to attract people who want to buy a product they are already looking for. I must be able to do that!

So for some reason, even though I'd started disastrously, I jumped into my "learning phase". Something by the way I never got out of. I was and still am a knowledge junkie. I devoured e Books and websites written by people who seemed to know what they were doing. And you know what? There's more to this than joining a top 10 affiliate program and putting an advert up.

Actually you can definitely make a GREAT income doing just that - but it is a lot more subtle than I'd thought. It is however something that anyone can do with the right attitude. By that I mean you must be prepared to learn your craft. Invest in your business and your future. Treat it as a business and it will reward you many many times over. But treat it as a money for nothing, get rich quick scheme and you WILL fail.

Some of the best books I read were Google Cash by Chris Carpenter, Affiliate Money Tree by Mike Delrue and The Definitive Guide to Adwords by Perry Marshall.

As I developed my income I found that after a while I just knew what products would sell and that I didn't need the top 10 affiliate programs - in fact I could make more by promoting less well known ones.

I also found better ways than placing pay per click ads - though this is easy money once you've learned the tricks of the trade. My best advertising is now totally free! (For details see below)

Here's to your success in affiliate sales - if I made it - so can you!

One important note... Learning how to build simple and original content rich AdSense Websites is the best way to tap into Google AdSense revenue. Original content is the key when starting an AdSense campaign, because some niche markets are becoming saturated with duplicate content. Nevertheless, original content is not a problem at all, because there are many online companies out there that will write original article content for you at very reasonable prices.

Another way to tap into Google AdSense revenue is to add a Google Search Box to your AdSense content rich website. AdSense for search will provide search results for your website users directly from your webpage without them leaving. When someone uses your Google Search Box, they will get relative search results and you will get an additional income scheme from Google.

The Google Referral Program is another income stream that you can add to your AdSense Website. You can place a Google referral button on your website to make your customers aware of Google's Products and Services. Your AdSense earnings will increase as you connect your website customers to Google's Products and Services. You will have the opportunity to choose which products and services you would like to offer to your website visitors.

To make money with Google all you need to do is advertise your website and get paid when people click on your links.

The threat of having your identity stolen grows each year. As a result, the problem receives constant media attention. Consumers are becoming more aware of the hazards of being lax with their personal information. Ironically, millions of people continue to inadvertently throw open the doors to their financial lives. They don't take steps to erect safeguards against would-be thieves. So, let's correct that problem. Below, we'll give you 6 simple measures that you can take (starting today) to prevent becoming a victim to ID theft and keep your free annual credit report secure.

#1 - Keep Car-Related Information Secure

Identity thieves are savvy. They can use documents such as vehicle registration forms and insurance papers to pry the door open to your credit. Keep these papers in a secure place. If you keep them in your car, you need to lock your car.

#2 - Stop Receiving Snail Mail Statements

The criminals who want to steal your identity love pilfering mailboxes. It's easy to do and allows them to get their hands on your bank and credit card statements. Call your bank and card companies (department stores, too) and request that they stop sending statements to you in the mail. Instead, pay your bills and review your accounts online.

#3 - Leave Your SSN At Home

Even though the Social Security Administration tells people to never carry their social security card in their wallet, many do so. Identity thieves pick pockets and purses. If they gain access to your social security number, they can unleash a trail of credit carnage that can take months from which to recover. Keep your card at home in a safe place.

#4 - Limit Data In Your Cell Phone

Millions of people spend hours on their cell phones every day. It's how they manage a large part of their lives. So, it seems natural to put sensitive information (credit card numbers, passwords to bank websites, etc.) on their phones for easy access. Don't do it. Thieves who want to swipe your identity consider cell phones a treasure trove of confidential information.

#5 - Your Computer Is Not A Safe Deposit Box

Don't store personal information on your computer's hard drive. Millions of people put their credit card numbers, bank information and even tax return documents on their hard drive. That information is vulnerable to viruses downloaded from the internet. Some thieves use computer viruses to gain remote access to people's computers.

#6 - Never Email Your Information

Email is supposed to be a private channel of communication. Unfortunately, identity thieves use email to trick consumers into providing confidential information. Millions of people have been duped into offering their usernames and passwords to strangers through email. Never send sensitive data in email.

When It's Too Much To Handle On Your Own

The harder you make it for thieves to steal your identity, the less likely you'll become a victim of identity theft. That said, there are dozens of measures you should be taking regularly to prevent your ID from being stolen. You should be watching your statements for irregular activity, analyzing your credit report, approaching junk mail warily, establishing fraud alerts with the major credit agencies and many other things.

For some people, taking these measures can be a grueling chore. Their free time is better spent with their families. Identity theft protection services (i.e. companies such as LifeLock and IdentityTruth) offer to take care of the "heavy lifting" for you. They'll help ensure that your finances and credit are secure from thieves. Remember, ID theft prevention is about watching the small details. If you don't want to spend the time doing it on your own, there are dependable services that will take care of it for you. The key is making sure somebody is locking the door to your identity and your credit.
