Making big money on the internet may have seemed like a dream in the past but not anymore because there are really many ways to make you a successful online money maker. In fact, it is hard not to make money if you put in a good effort.

Below are the 4 methods I have used to make money online. There is obviously several different avenues online for making money but these are the methods that I have found to work the best for me.

1. Google AdSense

Ask anyone what is the best money making program on the internet, the first response you will likely get is Google AdSense. If you have a website or blog, simply put up Google ads on it and when your visitors click on them, you get paid a commission.

Tip: Choose the right niche, right keyword(s) and drive relevant traffic and each click on the ad will result in money in your pocket.

2. Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is nothing new in the online money making industry. It is a multi-billion dollar business. A lot of people are making tons of money on the internet from affiliate marketing. So how it does it work exactly? Well if you have a website or blog selling a product, simply direct your traffic to the their site with a referral link. When your visitors purchase something through your referral link, you will earn a percentage of commission from the sale.

Tip: Drive lots of traffic to your website and participate in popular affiliate programs that pay well. Recommended affiliate programs are Commission Junction, Clickbank and Amazon.

3. Online Auctions

Making money through auctions is a slow yet profitable way to go if you have the knowledge and the skill to locate the right product at the right price. Power sellers on eBay have been making tens of thousands of dollars every month from online auctioning alone.

Tip: Learn and adopt the right skill to make a profitable sale. Do not give up easily as it may seem really tough at first. Learn and improve yourself along the way.

4. Private Ad Sales

Private Ad Sales is a new way to monetize your website or blog and the profits can be huge. In fact, popular internet gurus like John Chow, have been making upwards of $11,000 alone from private ad sales with his blog in the month of September. In simple terms, how it works is to open up your website or blog directly for advertising. You make an income through advertising fees paid to you without going through any middleman.

When it comes to new internet marketing opportunities for your business, RSS just might be the answer you were looking for. Now you can monetize on your blogs and earn extra revenue. Here are just some of the new opportunities it can provide you with.

1. Generate extra revenue using Google’s AdSense program.

AdSense lets website owners with rich content and high traffic sites, make money without even selling anything. Place a Google search box on your site, and you can start monetizing the results from web searches. Google serves ads that relate to the blog’s content. Their spiders use a combination of keyword matching and context analysis to determine what ads should be served. Get paid by Google.

2. Earn commission from affiliate programs by displaying vendors products or services.

Many top e-commerce merchants like Amazon and Best Buy want you to display their feeds with products to market to your visitors. From every sale, lead, that has been generated from your site, you earn a percentage of a commission. Here is an informative ebook on a new approach of RSS publishing and marketing.

3. Frequent Content Updates

High frequency content updates, even on a daily or hourly basis, are now finally possible with RSS. No more need to hold on your important messages, press releases and other content for a week or even a month to include it in your e-zine. RSS allows you to update your content as often as you want… and your subscribers won’t mind.

3. Appcasting

This is great news for software developers. Appcasting allows you to deliver new shareware programs and updates to your existing clients, without them having to visit your web site every week for critical updates.

4. Real estate agents and mortgage brokers can quickly and easily alert their subscribers of rate changes or new home listings.

All of these are just some examples of what you can do with RSS. The possibilities for new content delivery & business development models are quite endless
