Starting an online business (a website) can be a great way to do some creative work in the field you are passionate about. Sure, there are millions of sites online on the Internet, so the challenge is to start one that grabs users' attention. This article will help you start your own online business.
Steps
Step 1. Think about potential business sectors
Start by putting 5-10 topics on paper that you are an expert on and are passionate about.
Step 2. Research these areas
Start by checking which other sites are doing the same thing and also use the "keyword planner" to see what users are looking for the most.
Step 3. Identify which sectors have the greatest potential
It will likely be an industry that has high demand but has few sites that deal with it on the Internet. Use Google's "keyword planner" to find out how strong the demand is and simply do a Google "in quotes" search to find out how many pages there are on a specific keyword.
Step 4. Find the important keywords that describe the industry
Use tools like Google Trends, or the "keyword planner" to research the potentially most profitable industries and keywords.
Step 5. Or, find keywords that are good value for money
Choose an industry and go in search of more specific keywords that you can buy at a low price through Google Adwords.
Step 6. Consider building an informative website and making money from your ad
You can start a purely informational site and make money using Google Adsense or by selling affiliate programs to readers. Google Adsense allows you to place advertising targeted to your target market on your pages. Every time a user clicks on the ad, you earn money. Affiliate marketing programs are created by companies to promote their products. You can sign up and get paid when you promote their products.
Step 7. Make your website more functional
Create a website on the subject using optimized keywords to attract search engines and users.
Step 8. Consider using your website to promote other businesses in order to increase revenue
You can also start by looking for "affiliate marketing" programs and you can find keywords and products that you can promote through marketing articles, or on your own website. You don't need to know the industry well.
