Anyone who has ever surfed the internet has wondered how to make money online. We all hear about making money without money and of these select few that make millions every year from the internet. This often leaves us wondering how we can get our slice of the pie and start living the high life from an online income. There is a way, a very simple way, that you can take $10 or less and make a passive monthly income.

The first step in this process is to go to an affiliate network such as Clickbank.com and sign up for an account. Once you do, you will want to start searching for products and programs that are selling and selling very well. The best place to start is with health related products with the exception of weight loss. Weight loss is a very difficult market to get into, while other health related topics such as panic attacks and yeast infections are profitable, sell very well, and have enough room for you to make money in. Once you find a product, you will want to get what is called your hoplink for that product. This is the link you will use to send traffic to that product in order to make money.

The next step is to go to Blogger.com and start a blog. If you prefer, you can go purchase a domain name instead, but this will cost you anywhere from $4 up to around $10 a year. Either way will work, but a blog at Blogger.com will take more time and energy to make money with. If you get a domain name, try to find one that is close to the name of the product that you are promoting. With a domain name, you will need to ask your hosting service how to forward a url and then use your hoplink from Clickbank.com as the url you want to forward to.

Next in this simple process is to go to EzineArticles.com and get an account. This is where you will be getting your traffic from. Once you have all of this, you are ready to get started.

Now you need to go to Google and type in “free wordtracker keyword research tool.” When you find this, you will have a tool that you can use to type in any keyword you want and it will give you the top searched keywords for that term. For example, if you type in dogs, it will bring back terms such as dog training, housebreaking your dog, and various others as well as the number of searches each month. You will want to take the terms that have 15 or higher searches and go to Google with those words.

When you get to Google, type those words in using parenthesis. For example “dog training.” You want to find as many keywords as possible that have less than 10,000 results for those searches. Now, once you have your list, start writing articles based on all of those keywords and start submitting them to EzineArticles.com. When you do this, you will want to put the link to your blog or domain name in the author box. This will direct the people who read your articles and click on your links to your product and will begin to create a monthly income for you.
