You might have heard and read so many podcasts and ebooks on how to make money and after reading or hearing each, you decide to follow the procedures outlined religiously. After a while, you find out the process is not working and jump into another method and to the next.

These methods must have made you conclude that there are no genuine way of making money online other than maybe selling fake ebooks, being a fraudster and maybe building a Ponzi site.

If you have been experiencing all these, then this post is for you. In this post, I will be dishing out the secrets that will ensure that you make money online using any method of your choice. Just sit down and grab a pack of popcorn as I unveil all these.

Secrets about making money online that you should know:

Below are some of the secrets:

Sell something:
you might see this as one of those cock-and-bull stories you have read so many times on the internet; but it is not. Let me tell you why.

Have you ever gone to a website, blog or online forum to check out what people really want? Let me shock you now! If you visit a website or blog, you must see someone who posted that he or she is in need of proven methods of curing some kind of ailment, body problem or the likes. Do you know these are gold mines for you?

Let me take an example- browsing through a web forum one day, I saw a post made my someone and he or she requested of any method that could help cure acne. Leveraging on this, one can make some nice research about some ways that work out and create an E-book on that. Once the E-book is done, you can market it everywhere on the internet and from that, you will pull thousands of dollars to your account.

On the part of advertising, you can make use of Facebook ads, Google adwords, or advertise on any website or forum related to the niche with high traffic. You will spend a token no doubt but you will surely make a lot from it.

Give any method you chose some time:
there is this popular quote I love so much; “Rome wasn’t built in a day”. The reason why some people fail to make money online is just because they don’t have patience with any method they choose to test out.
Some people will try a method of making money online today, and if it doesn’t make money for them in the next month, they dump it and go for another. “Method gerrymandering” as I choose to call it is the cause of so many failures in the online money making environment. Just give it some time and you will surely make cool money off it.

Make Google your friend:
there is nothing you want that is not on Google. A friend of mine once said that the only thing that is not on Google is Oxygen (i.e. life) and I bet to agree with him completely. You can get everything you need on Google if you search well and use the right keywords.

Stick to one method:
I think this is similar to the secret above. Yes, stick to one thing and make it work first before venturing into others.

I was a victim of this in that when I started, I wanted to stick to blogging alone but when I found out that Google Adsense kept on rejecting my blog, I decided to abandon it and go into freelancing. Along the line, I read something online about vlogging and how it has made so many people rich and the next minute, I was into vlogging.

It continued like this till I read a post about sticking to one thing till you succeed before going into other things. I immediately returned to blogging and after a while, got approved by Google for Adsense and after a while, some other ads companies like Chitika and infolinks approved my blog too (although I left chitika and infolinks because their ads are not as compatible as Google’s).

When I saw I had gained some grounds in blogging, I started freelancing with Fiverr which made me extra money. After a while, I started a Youtube channel too.

Build an audience:
yes, building an audience is very important if you really mean to make money online. But what actually is building an audience?

To answer this question, I will like also to quote someone who said that “if your product is for everybody, then it is for nobody”. Your audience is people who really are interested in what you want to offer. That is, people who really want your product or service and are willing to read, request for your service or buy what you have.

This applies to almost all the methods of making money online like blogging, affiliate marketing, freelancing, etc. you can build your audience through so many ways and they include; running facebook pages and groups with a name that fits what you offer, using different methods that help collect targeted emails, etc.

Spend money on knowledge:
yes, I mean spend money on knowledge! This might sound somehow to newbies. The truth is that some knowledge cannot be found free on Google.

When I started some years back, I thought I can make money online without investing on buying courses and other materials about my chosen field of making money online. Although I made my first couple of dollars without buying any course, it took me years before I could make them. Immediately I started buying courses, my earnings continued increasing.

Some secrets are only reveled when you buy materials made by experts in that field about how they succeeded online.

Over to you:
I believe I have done justice to the topic and also hope you’ve learnt a lot from it. Apply them and you will surely be successful on any online money making method you choose.
