How to Sell Online For Free - Making Money on the Internet Without Spending a Dime

Step 1) Set up an email account for yourself. I like Gmail or Google Mail, but you can use any free email service you like. There is also Yahoo Mail, and Hotmail. Create an account.

Now, I would like for you to think about a theme, something that you want to focus your blog around, and name your blog. Be creative.

Step 2) Head over to Blogger.com, and create an account using the same email account you just created, and name your blog. Choose a template you like and add it. Now sign up for Google AdSense, and the Amazon Affiliate Program.

Google AdSense will allow you to get paid for displaying advertisements on your blog. They will pay you a certain amount per click when visitors come to your blog, and click on your ads.

The Amazon Affiliate Program lets you link to products from Amazon.com to your blog, and when visitors click on your product link and buy something from Amazon, you will get a commission, or a percentage of the sale.

Step 3) Check out some other blogger blogs for ideas of what you would like to do with your blog. Trust me, this step is helpful. See how other bloggers are linking to products, and the wording they are using. Take a look at the positions on the page for Google AdSense too.

Step 4) Create a couple of posts on your blog, add some Google AdSense Ads, and some products from Amazon using your new affiliate accounts.

Step 5) Now we want to get some visitors to your blog. The first step you want to take after you create a post to your blog is to head over to Pingler, or Pingomatic, and "ping" your blog. This is to let the search engines know that you have written a post, and for them to index it. In other words, this is how you can get the search engines like Google to list your blog when visitors search for keywords related to it.

Step 6) Create an EzineArticles account with a link to your blog in your bio. Write an article related to each post, or rewrite each post to at least 350 words or more, and post it to EzineArticles, and at the bottom in the resources box, create a link back to your blog.
