Apart from earning income from affiliate products or services
that you actively promote, there are other ways of earning with
your online home based business from your website or blog. You
might as well capitalize on every opportunity available.
For an affiliate program with Yahoo Publisher, Google Adsense
etc. You will earn commission for your online home based
business if people click through from your site and buy
products. There are many companies who do this but - think
about the relevance to your main business.
With companies like Yahoo and Google they will select
appropriate ads. With other companies you have to be sure that
the businesses advertised fit in with yours in some way.
One way that companies offer an online home based business
earning opportunities is by your having their banner
advertisements on your site. You have probably seen them.
Sometimes they can be very intrusive, but, thoughtfully
selected, can be another way for people to click through and for
you to gain some commission for your online home based business.
Another way online home based business can be promoted is to
use link exchanges. This is where you research other companies
with relevant products or services and exchange links that can
be clicked. This practice has a two-fold advantage. Your
website or blog will have greater visibility in the Internet
world, and the more places you are linked to, the more your
online home based business will be picked up. Without getting
into Search Engine Optimization (SEO), which is a subject in
itself, this method is simple and gets you going.
In order to find links, guess what? There are sites out there
which specialize. Three good ones are:
- Commission Junction
- Link Market
- Link Share
Do your research on these sites to see how they work and think
laterally about the kinds of businesses that you could benefit
your online home based business. Although it is important to get
different kinds of links to your online home based business you
must also bear in mind that overkill doesn't work.
You must have visited the sites of some online based home
business which have millions of links, ads, banners on their
site. What is your reaction? Usually you feel completely
overwhelmed and will end up clicking off the site.
So remember, keep it relevant to your online home based
business. Choose those that are useful to your visitors because
you want them to come back to you. Find the right balance for
your online home based business linkages and you can earn useful
extra passive income with no further effort.
If you want your online home based business to expand naturally
using some of these linking techniques will help your site rise
in the search engines. Remember the greater the number of links
pointing at your site the greater visibility you will achieve
for your online home based business. That after all is what you
are aiming at. More visitors equals more prospective customers.
