How To Create Multiple Income Streams From Your Website

If you're a regular reader of this small newsletter you
will know I am a full-time online marketer. Not that you
should care so much about that but in a way you should.

Not about me personally, but about HOW I arrived at the
place where I am working full-time online and enjoying
the comfort of working at home. I am currently at around
100-200 aday. In web marketing terms that very small potatoes
but it sure puts a slight smile on my ugly face each and
every day!

Just glad looking good is not a requirement for earning
a nice income online! ;-)

Lately, my income has been going up and I thought it would
be helpful for you to know the reasons behind this increase.
Especially if you're into list building, web marketing or
just trying to earn money from your site or sites.

A few things that have nothing to do with Internet
marketing has caused my income to increase dramatically.
First, I upgraded to a high-speed Internet (I live in a
very remote part of Canada and worked from a phone
modem for years) and second, I upgraded to a very
fast Duo Core laptop. Those two things made a big
difference.

You must have good work tools to get the job done.

It has increased my work output - more articles, more
sites, more web content... I tripled my output, then
tripled it again. It has also proven, in order to fully
take advantage on web marketing, you do need the physical
tools to get your work done quickly.

Somewhere along the way of trying to make a full-time
income online I learned the most important factor or
key to why I have gotten this far. That main key is:

Know precisely who you are marketing to. Know exactly
who you are targeting.

Every new site, every new article, every new webpage
I create - I have my targeted audience in mind at
all times.

Let me explain, on my main site I have a section
on Corporate Business Gifts - instead of marketing
the general areas of gifts - I have narrowed it
down to corporate or business gifts.

Gifts for employees, workers, bosses or executives
- now a boss or company ordering gifts for their
workers are not going to buy one gourmet basket but
10 or even a 100 baskets for their employees at one
time.

Corporate Business Gifts is a very competitive
niche market for that very reason - it can be
very lucrative, even for the affiliate marketer
but the competition is formidable. Boy, it is
an extremely competitive...

But it is one niche I am aggressively targeting
this holiday season. I have many more niches and
many more sites which I will keep quiet about -
why drum up more competition.

I mention all this because once you get into
niche marketing - you are also precisely targeting
or identifying your market or audience. It is this
narrowing down process which in my opinion results
in all those sales and your success.

If you're not into niche marketing, try it. Narrow
down a particular market section or product. There
are still hundreds of thousands of niche markets
out there to be exploited online. Just find a few
and work them like crazy!

Anyway, below are some other ways in which I create
multiple income streams with my sites... the first part
of article you probably already know about... but just
make sure you read my #1 marketing tip or method I use
to get those 200 dollar days...

o How To Create Multiple Income Streams From Your Website
Copyright © 2006 Titus Hoskins


Creating multiple income streams from your website
is a proven marketing strategy. An effective strategy
anyone can use to earn a part-time or full-time online
income. If you are not currently earning revenue from
your site, you could be leaving significant amounts of
cash floating in cyberspace.

Significant amounts of cash that can help pay your
monthly bills: your rent or mortgage, your car payments,
your utility bills or even your hosting costs. Many alert
webmasters are doing just that by creating multiple income
streams from their site or sites.

Creating these multiple income streams is not a
difficult task. Nor is it a lengthy or time
consuming one; monetizing your site can be done
within a few hours of work.

Here are some effective ways of creating multiple
income streams:


1. Affiliate Programs

Joining affiliate programs related to your site
is an easy process. Placing html code or java script
on your site with your affiliate IDs embedded only
takes seconds. I find joining major affiliate networks
like Commission Junction, LinkShare, Amazon, ClickBank,
Shareasale... to be the most effective. You can quickly
find and join affiliate programs related to your site's
topics.

Affiliate programs are excellent income producers, all
you have to do is supply the traffic or leads and the
affiliate company does the selling, shipping and handles
all customer interactions. These programs pay on time
each month and there are no disputes about commissions.
Amazon pays quarterly!



2. Google Adsense

Perhaps one of the easiest way to monetize your site
is through Google Adsense. All you have to do is add
a snippet of code to your site and Google serves up
ads to match your site's content. Getting those checks
from Google each month will put a smile on your face.
Guaranteed!


3. Sponsored Links

Another simple way to earn revenue from your site is
offering sponsored links. Selling links to other
sites who want to be listed on your site. Set up
a PayPal subscription service, and if your site
has a high PR page rank you will have plenty of
webmasters more than willing to pay you each month.


4. Banner Advertising

A simple, direct way to earn revenue from your
site is to host and sell banner advertising on
your site. Bit traditional but still a money
producer for high traffic volume sites.


5. List Building

Building an opt-in list of contacts interested in
the topic of your site can be one of your most
effective income producers. Many webmasters and
marketers use followup e-mails to keep in contact with
their site's visitors. This does require some work
and set-up time, but once you have your autoresponders
in place, you can forget about them.

In addition, marketing special deals, joint ventures
and offers to your permission based email contact list
can be another lucrative income stream for you.

That's just five ways to create multiple income
streams from your site. There are many, many more
but these are good starting points for any webmaster
who wants to monetize their site or sites.

Additional Marketing Tip


Here's my #1 marketing strategy on how to
increase your number of income streams:

I use the Long Tail keyword marketing model to
create high ranked keyword listings in organic search
for profitable keyword phrases on the topics of
my sites. First, I use a keyword research tool
like Brad Callen's Keyword Elite or an online
site Yahoo's Overture to find profitable keyword
phrases for my sites.

These tools will tell you how many searches are
made each month for a given keyword phrase and
also tell you how much marketers are willing to
pay for each click to this keyword phrase - as in
PPC or Pay Per Click advertising.

The trick is to find low to mid-range keywords
or keywords phrases that are profitable but
have little competition. Then design a content page
on your site to target these keyword phrases
and draw in traffic. I use keyword targeted
articles which I place on my site and also submit
to online article directories like Ezinearticles,
Goarticles, Articlealley, among others.

In the resource box at the end of each article, I
place my keyword anchor text and links back to my
site. As these are competitively low ranked keywords,
my content pages usually land on the top positions
in the search engines for my targeted keywords
within a week or so.

This is a simple effective marketing strategy
that feeds targeted traffic into my sites, making
them more profitable with each keyword phrase I develop
content for on my sites. It is an online marketing
strategy that you can also use to booster your multiple
income streams from your own website.

Granted, all the above information comes with a
disclaimer, the amount of income will usually
correlate to how effective you are at marketing
your site and how much traffic you can generate.
Your different abilities will play a large role in how
much you will earn. However, there is no reason why
any healthy site getting a decent amount of traffic
can't be used to create multiple streams of income.
Just cash in!
