To recap, here is the Make Money Online Checklist:
1. Find A Niche

101 Profitable Niches Analyzed – And How To Make Money From Them
2. Create A Website
My step-by-step tutorial on how to get this done – Click Here.
3. Create A Free Gift
Don’t know what people in your niche are interested in? Go to Google, type in <Name of Niche> “free report”, click search and then on “Images” on the left hand side. You can even click through on the images and sign up for a copy of the reports yourself to get inspiration for your own report (just don’t copy outright!).
4. Set Up Your List
I recommend Aweber. It’s cheap, fast and very intuitive to use. That’s my affiliate link.
5. Find Affiliate Products To Promote
Keep the quality high (look after your subscribers and they’ll look after you!) . Try Clickbank.com (click on the Marketplace link at the top) or type in <Name Of Niche> “affiliate program” to find other people’s products and services that you can promote in return for a commission.
6. Get Traffic
Guest posting: One way to do this is to Google and type in <Name Of Niche> “write for us”
Blog Commenting: Focus on high traffic blogs (look to see how many Facebook likes, Tweets and blog comments they have), and do this consistently (e.g., leave 5 quality comments per day).
Forum Marketing: Google: <Name Of Niche> Forums. Check to make sure these forums are active and have a lot of members otherwise you won’t get much (if any) traffic. Insert a link back to your website in the signature (that’s the bit that gets published below every forum post you make).
Meetups: To see how you can find a meetup group in your local area check out my tutorial here.
Don’t forget to create a schedule, focus and most of all, take action!
Right, that’s it!

Rob, as usual very informative , doing a course at the moment but will keep video for future online help, thankyou, Brian.
Thank you Brian, glad you found it useful 🙂
Great list Rob! The free gift one I have never thought of, what a great idea. Thanks!
Yes, it’s a nice little trick there Ralph – especially useful if you’re surveying new niches!
Cheers – Rob.
I am finding your method of presentation a joy and am FINALLY beginning to think I might be able to “do” this. Incredibly informative and helpful. Thank you SO much.
Gill
You’re very welcome Gill!
Great to hear this helped you. You certainly can do this – just got to block out all the noise and distractions and stick to the “roadmap” 🙂
Cheers, Rob.
EXCELLENT AND VERY GOOD INFO. U are up on your game. I look 4ward towards 2 seeing more. Thanks
Great stuff Dr. Anton. Thank you for letting me know and glad you enjoyed it!
Cheers,
Rob.
Isn’t global warming great?!! 🙂
(just kidding!)
I’m definitely going to try to get there on my next visit to the UK. My previous trips to London have always been in the winter, and the weather has not been very pleasant!
Your checklist is great as well – very concise and easy to remember/follow – especially for those who are easily overwhelmed by IM.
Hey Michelle, I hope you’re well!
Yes, perhaps climate change has something to do with it, although I certainly wasn’t complaining when I shot the video!
Glad you liked the marketing content too.
Cheers,
Rob.
Hi Rob,
Thanks for this checklist. I am hoping that it will inspire me to at last take the plunge and start working online. I have been retired for over a year now and can’t decide what to do in terms of keeping myself busy and trying to make an extra income. I have looked at lots of ideas but have been indecisive. I hope I have now found the right niche. Thanks again
Great stuff Paul. If you’ve got the time to invest then this business could be ideal for you. And its so much fund too 🙂
Everything we do is a learning experience so taking action is really the key. I don’t think we really learn anything by standing back and trying to figure out the best route. Better to get stuck in and fail a bit but “fail forward” so we’re always learning and converging on what really works. (I failed a lot when I started in 2010 and it did me the World of good!).
Kind regards – Rob.
Hi Rob
I was putting my wordpress website together this afternoon, i got to the
final stages when i accidentally deleted it and could not retrieve it, i have spent
hours trying. shall i start again ?. i don’t mind.
Tom
Hi Tom,
Are you saying you accidentally deleted the whole site? If so and if you don’t have a backup then yes, you’d have recreate it from scractch.
It’s pretty hard to delete the whole site by mistake though. Are you sure this is what has happened?
Kind regards,
Rob
