Online Business Basics
In order to make ‘big’ money online, you will need a website. Without it you can’t build a fanbase, you can’t build a brand name. This website will be your online property (like a traditional offline store) and can be monetized in various ways
Alternatively, you can make money online even without a website. There are unlimited opportunities as you’ll discover later on
An Audience
A website targets a specific segment of a market, a niche, which in essence is an audience, a group of people looking for:
- Solutions to problems
- Information on products, programs, and services
- Product reviews, comparisons, lists, best of’s, deals, discounts, best prices, bonuses
Keyword & Market Research
We attract those people by identifying their needs, problems, and desires, performing keyword & market research, and targeting specific keywords
The Competition
We research the competition to gain insights documenting our discoveries
Creating Content
We create useful, unique and high-quality content in various formats based on our audience needs.
SEO/Advertising
The content of the website will get rankings in the search engines and will be published and advertised on various platforms and mediums
Traffic/Monetization
As a result, the website will gain traffic that can be monetized in a hundred different ways
PHASE 01 – PREPARATION
Action-Steps
Phase 01 - Preparation
