Now Is The Time To Start Making Money Online

Never has the opportunity to make money online been greater than it is today. Furthermore, it has never been simpler for you to have an online presence.

When we started to market online eleven years ago, the only way to get free traffic was to be ranked on the first page of Google. The only other option was to pay to get prospects by advertising on Google.

PPC advertising for our two best keywords cost twelve-dollars and fifteen-dollars per click, respectively. It is clear to see that one could run through thousands of dollars in a short period of time advertising on Google. We were just starting out so the idea of spending thousands of dollars in paid advertising wasn’t practical. So,  we worked hard at Search Engine Optimization and ended up ranked in the top four positions on Google for our most sought after keywords. Today, it is not unusual to hear of an online business to rank on the first page of Google within a couple of days, but it was highly unusual to get there in 6 months when we started marketing online.

Today, ranking on the first page of Google is great, but it’s not nearly as vital as it once was because now there are many other paths for people to find your website on the internet. {They can stumble upon you through blogs, social networking sites, YouTube, inexpensive advertising, and many other ways.}

In fact, at a Jeff Johnson seminar I attended, Jeff produced a video to promote a popular digital camcorder and ranked on the first page of Google by the end of the three-day seminar. If you would like to watch some very instructive videos on internet marketing, you can find a collections by Jeff on YouTube.

Facebook now has more searches made daily than Google, and it didn’t even exist eleven years ago. How does that fact influence any strategy you construct to market your business? If you are going to market on the internet, you have to be on Facebook.

Eleven years ago, you had to be familiar with HTML code (Hyper Text Markup Language) to construct a website to have an online presence. Now, you don’t need to know anything about HTML programming and you can build a blog using many Web 2.0 websites. You can set up your marketing page, monetize it and start marketing online in a day.

Only a small part of the world’s residents was online eleven years ago. The latest stats show that in 2000, there were 360-billion people on the Internet and today there are 1.73-trillion people online. In other words, one out of every four people in the world is online. This is a enormous market, no matter how you slice it.

In my judgement, there has never been a better moment in time to make money online than there is today. Will you take advantage of this huge opportunity is the only question that remains to be answered?
