I am going to talk about some easy ways to make money online, but before I do so let me share something. One of the things that makes me laugh every time I look at how this site was found is some of the search terms people are putting into Google. Many times you can learn something from this. What is that? That there is a market for making money online with those terms. Sometimes its a fluke that you get found for these terms, and other times its not. I can’t begin to say how many easy ways to make money online there actually are.

Since this blog is about blogging, do you think that anyone interested in mountain climbing will most likely stick around to read this site? Obviously not. But do you think this site can rank for keywords related to mountains? It sure can. One thing that happens with a site when it has received plenty of links and gained enough authority, is that it can rank in Google for all types of things. However, the problem with this is that you get all kinds of traffic, but none of it is targeted.

Let me be the first to say that bloggingzombie is not a very targeted site at the moment. One of the terms I rank for is "make money blogging" which I get a decent amount of traffic from each month. And by no means am I telling you that having a making money online blog or a make money blogging blog is one of the easy ways to make money online because its really not.

What I am telling you though, is the fact that if you really want to make some bucks, you are going to have to really get the targeted traffic you want. Now if say for instance it is for origami, then you are not going to want to just talk about the history of origami. Lets be more targeted here. Wouldn’t it make sense to build a website or a blog for things like where to buy origami paper or how to do origami? Do you see a difference? Now remember this is only an example and when writing this I have not even looked at the competition of others working this niche. But the point here is that people are looking for an answer. You have several options of giving that answer. One of which would be adsense if relevant ads are available, and the second would be some sort of ebook or information you could sell on how to make origami.

The previous was just one example of how you should be targeting your audience if you want to make money. If you do not want to make money, then just build informational sites for people that will get you tons of traffic, and really low conversion, that will in turn get you smart priced with adsense, or make you no sales on products because you provided the searcher with just the right information for free.

This is just one of the reasons why I am able to consistently get high CTR on my blogs or sites that provide a solution through an affiliate link or an ad being clicked. And not doing this is also why bloggingzombie gets me all kinds of traffic for unusual searches. I thought it might be funny just to show you as I mentioned earlier some of the things people found me for related to mountains, even though the post I did a while back had nothing to do with real physical mountains.

OK, so what are some easy ways to make money online? Making money with eBay would be one of the first ways.

Another way is to build niche blogs with wordpress on an unlimited hosting plan.

You could also build sites that promote the sale of an ebook or other digital download that provides value.

If you are not sure about having a website you could even take surveys online. That’s probably one of the easiest ways to make money online, and all it requires is an internet connection and time.

So as you can see there are plenty of ways to make money in the internet. Its not hard, you just have to get off your butt and get it done, and then wait in some cases.
