If you pay attention to the media you will see jobs being cut all across the US and everyone screaming recession, recession. More and more people are looking to the internet to make money and to start their own business and be their own boss. Many financial researchers are saying that the second internet dot com is upon us and now is the time to take advantage of it.

These are some of the internets biggest money makers:

BANS – BANS stands for Build A Niche Store and is software that auto builds eBay Affiliate Stores. The more affiliate stores you have, the more you make overall. I have 7 affiliate stores currently and will be adding a lot more soon. You can read my article on it at and see the bans stores I have up.

The easiest way to set them up is with a host that allows unlimited websites, like Hostgator does. I was a network administrator for Hostgator and I also host this blog with them, so I know from experience what great service and support they have. You get unlimited websites for $7.95 a month and if you use our coupon code ‘creatingrevenue‘, you get $9.94 off your initial order.

I will be doing a full howto on setting up BANS with Hostgator’s Cpanel. So consider subscribing to my RSS feed or you can subscribe by email and have new posts sent directly to your inbox.

Affiliate Blogging – All the rage right now is "how to making money with your blog". If you have a blog or want to setup a blog soon, affiliate marketing is the way to go. These are some of the ways you can make money off your blog.

Kontera – Kontera is a service that analyzes your site content and places popup ads on keywords. These ads popup on hover and is represented by double underlines. You can view any of my posts to see examples of this. You get paid when visitors to your site click on these ads.

Google Adsense – Adsense is an affiliate service provided by Google that allows you to put content targeted ads on your website. You earn money when visitors click on these ads. This is an example of an Adsense ad:

Text Link Ads – This service allows you to display a list of "paid links" on your blog. You will get paid for each link displayed on your site. How much you get paid depends on a combination of your Alexa rating and your rss subscriber numbers.

Peel Away Ad – This is the peel away ad you see in the top right corner of my blog. This is a great way to display ads on your site. Visitors will begin to visually ignore banners if they visit your site enough. Peel away ads are hard to ignore and people can’t help but hover over them to see them in action. You can create your own peel aways for other programs for profit or you can use peel away ads referral program to earn money from sales of the peel away software.

Banners Ads – These are the large banners from the top of my blog and the 125×125 ads you see to your right. You can display these ads on your site and each one clicked gets you affiliate payouts. I use per sale methods instead of per click. This earns you more in the long run from sales. These are 2 of the ad networks I use: Clickbank and Shareasale.

These are just a few of the programs you can use to make money off the internet. I will be adding, reviewing and testing various programs on my blog. So consider subscribing to my RSS feed or you can subscribe by email and have new posts sent directly to your inbox.
