There are many ways to make money on your own website. Affiliate programs, selling links, placing advertising articles, distributing your own information product. But before creating a website, you need to think over a strategy for its development. It will also depend on what kind of site you create.
Instructions
Step 1
The first thing to do is to decide on the amount that you plan to spend on the creation and promotion of the site. If the budget is small, it is better not to choose a popular topic for the resource. Yes, there are a lot of users interested in cosmetics or cinema, but it will be difficult to attract them without the funds. Dozens of professionals are working on the development of a competitor site with which you will have to fight for places in the top of search engines. New articles are written every day, advertising is bought. You will not be able to do this amount of work yourself. Therefore, choose a narrow topic that you are well versed in.
Step 2
Unique, interesting articles will help you find readers, that is, regular visitors who bring traffic to the site and make the resource attractive to advertisers. It's better to think about what kind of ad you can place in advance. If your site is devoted to too specific a topic, there will be problems with finding customers.
Step 3
Remember that a site hosted on free hosting is initially in worse conditions than hosted on a paid hosting. It is difficult to add it to well-known directories, sometimes it is poorly indexed by search engines. Selling links from such a site is difficult.
Step 4
If you are not on a budget, it makes sense to create a resource designed for a large audience. The following areas are popular: real estate, online earnings, construction, tourism. Sites of these topics bring in excellent income. The sale of apartments or travel vouchers is a profitable business, which means that companies that deal with it are ready to pay good money for advertising.
Step 5
Women's topics are also popular on the Internet. Sites devoted to the problems of relationships, cooking, raising children are visited by thousands of women. Interest in them is stable. The competition is great, but a large number of sites reprint (with minimal changes) information from other resources. Creating quality content will help you find your niche. It is important that your resource has its own unique style.
Step 6
A good way to make money is to create an online store. The site will not be used as an advertising platform, but as an autonomous source of income. This will not require huge investments, although such a project cannot be implemented with a zero budget.
Step 7
An excellent option for people who are able to invest a large amount of money in the site are platforms for people to communicate (if you manage to get promoted, the traffic will be huge and constant), educational resources, freelance exchanges. But this is for units.
