My Open Book

Making money online has never been easier. There are thousands of info products out there that teach different methods of making money with affiliate marketing, in any niche and with any kind of product. There are 5 simple steps that you need to go through to create your own website and start earning an income through niche marketing.

1. Register a domain

I recommend using Namecheap or Godaddy for domain registration. They are very affordable and have a great reputation online. Also, it is always best to register your domain outside of your hosting company.

2. Get web hosting

Web hosting is very cheap these days and you can actually get a solid hosting plan for around $5. Personally, I recommend using a company like Hostgator or Bluehost. Also, it is very important to get a hosting account that includes Cpanel and installers like Fantastico. With a program like Fantastico, you can install a wordpress site in less than a minute.

3. Create content for your site

After doing some research and getting your domain name and hosting, it’s time to fill your site with content. You can do the content creation on your own or you can outsource it. Elance is a great company to see about outsourcing content.

4. Sign up for several affiliate marketing programs

Go to sites like Clickbank, Paydotcom and Commission Junction to find solid affiliate programs that cover your niche and offer a high quality product with a good compensation plan. After doing this, you plug your affiliate links into the content that you have previously created or you write reviews of the products in question.

5. Start promoting your site

Decide on a promotion strategy, whether it be in a form of PPC campaign, a link building effort to get organic traffic through the search engines or maybe an article marketing campaign. Whatever you do, make sure you research the topic a bit and find the best solutions for your needs.

THere could be an optional sixth step in this blueprint and that would be to get an autoresponder if you plan on building a list of subscribers that you can follow up with more than once.

This is a simple blueprint and it shows how easy it is to get started with making money through affiliate marketing.
