ClickBank as a way to make money

If you Google 'make money online' and ignore all those telling you it’s easy, anyone can do it in just a few minutes, you may just come across the sites that pay you to take surveys... But I have an account with 'pureprofile' and have had one for a while and I really cannot be bothered doing all those questions and then having to wait until I make so much money (£25 is the norm) before I even get to see it, so I keep getting emails saying 'NEW OFFER' and I just delete them as it’s not up my street, but if you want then look for these sites and there are some that don't scam you and do actually pay, but I don't know them as I don't like them. But that is one way to make money if you are dedicated and wait for the surveys.

However it's not the only way to do it, after 3 days of looking for valid ways to make cash online I found out about SEO (search engine optimization) and IM (internet marketing) which do actually make money, it’s just figuring it out how those people do it. What you would need to do this is; your own website and a few ads on your site (pay per click things and that sort of thing, they pretty much promote a product and get paid commission if the product gets sold) so they divert more people to the website to increase their chances of making some money.

But I’m 18 and I haven’t a clue how to make my own site, YET. But I'm going to find out how and hopefully from that point become one of those rare people who can make a steady income from it, while teaching you along the way. But I am not going to hold my breath and neither should you, I am however going to keep those who read this updated on my progress on making money from the internet, I’ll try and do this about once a week, first few times I post though will be more frequent and if I find something good that I have posted already I will jump back on and tell everyone.

First place I'm starting is on Clickbank as I cannot be arsed with online surveys, but don’t let me tell you not to do them yourself, you can make a bit of 'chump change' from those sites, I don't like this phrase as its almost as annoying as petty cash (money they keep in shops that isn’t in the till, it can be enough to pay someone full time at £6/hour) Someone offers you free £180 a week, and you will accept it without thinking anywhere near the borders of petty, but the big money makers think that £25 (the amount you should get from many many surveys) is money that chumps make... LONG LIVE US CHUMPS is what I say.

Anyway back to Clickbank, this is a quite a well known site, you go on and it’s got a nice wee layout with the steps that they use to make you money, and what it is, is as follows:

• Browse to find a product that you like and want to promote
• You will get a link that you put on your blog or site or where ever will get a lot of 'traffic' (makes me laugh when I see this as your 'traffic' is humans... using human traffic to make money but without them having to be sold or made into slaves :D )
• If someone buys this product after clicking your link, you get paid commission for advertising for them, you can make up to 75% commission (epic)

People do make money from this site by following those steps so if you want to try it go ahead its free www.clickbank.com but if you do manage to make money off it then they will take some money for hosting it which is fair and it’s not a lot, you can find out more on the site as I don't want to copy and paste a huge chunk of it just in case they tell me I’m copyrighting it
This is not the only promotion site out there, there are more, only this is the first I have found and the only one i am using.
