Is There Any Way to Make Money Posting Ads Online? Yes! Here’s Why & How to Do It in 3 Easy Steps

Feb. 8, 2013 - PRLog -- I’ve been making money posting ads online since 2008. I stumbled upon this way of making money online – when I gave affiliate marketing a try. After perfecting my method over a couple of years, in a 21 month stretch -- I earned $84,358.24 (from Jan 1, 2010 to Sep 23, 2011). And, I did it all using free techniques like placing free ads online.

So, if you’ve ever wondered any of the following, I’m here to tell you, “Yes, you can make money online – quick!” The info I’m going to share here will shed some light on why it’s possible.

Ever wondered . . .

“I wish I knew a way to make money online that was easy;”

“I need to know how to make extra money”;

“Is there really an easy way to make money online”; or

“I need to make extra money – quick!”

2 Reasons Making Money Online Posting Ads Is Possible

It’s Free: You don’t need any startup capital using this method. Just by utilizing the larger free classified ad sites like Craigslist and Backpage, you can get started right away.

Lots of Website Traffic: There are two basic requirements everyone needs to make money online – no matter what you’re selling or how much money you have / don’t have. They are: (i) an in-demand product or service; and (ii) a decent amount of web traffic. Free classified ad sites like Craigslist and backpage provide the traffic.

To find products and services to promote, all you have to do is log onto like Clickbank and CommissionJunction to find thousands of products and services to promote.

When you put these two things together – a good product/service and a free source of traffic – well, it’s a match made in affiliate marketing heaven!

How to Make Money Posting Ads Online in 3 Easy Steps

Now that you know why it’s relatively simple to make some money just by posting ads on free classified ad sites, following is how to go about it in three easy steps.

1. Choose a Product/Service: For example, Clickbank has over 10,000 e-products you can choose from. Again, it doesn’t cost you a dime. All you do is scroll through, select a few products that appeal to you, and write your ad, which brings us to the next step.

2. Write a Benefits-Oriented Ad: What I mean by this is,  create an ad that highlights the benefit to the reader, eg, it’ll make you lose weight faster, earn money quickly, win back the love of your life, etc.

Whatever it is, make it compelling enough that the person who reads it will want to click the link in your ad. This link should take them to a sales page or page on your site/the product creators site that will give them more info about the product/service and take some kind of action, eg, make a purchase, sign up to a newsletter, etc..

3. Post Regularly: This is the soft spot for many affiliate marketers who try to make money posting ads online. They give up way too soon and don’t post often enough. When I first started, I posted ads every day – 25, 50 or 100 or more.

Why this often and this many ads? Because marketing advertising wisdom is that prospective customers have to see an ad on average of 7 to 28 times before they’ll make a purchase.

So if you’re not posting on a regular basis, you not only don’t give potential customers a chance to see your ad often enough, you leave the door open for some other consistent affiliate marketer to get what could have been your sale.

Conclusion

There’s much more to making money posting ads online, but the process really is as simple as what’s discussed here. You can literally start making money today with this method. And the fun part is, it’s pretty easy to work up to earning $50 to $150 per day – or more – if you find a popular product/service – and stay consistent with your marketing. I know, I’ve done it!

Good luck if you decide to try this way of making money online. Hands down, it’s one of the easiest ways I’ve ever found to do it – and did I mention, it’s free?
