What kind of website to build to make money online?
Well there are all kinds of websites that could be used to make money.
Here are a few examples and SEO tips.
Retail Sites
You could build a website to sell a physical product online. I
have such a site, chilipepperapp.com. My product is one that I came
up with myself and I manufacture it and market it on the web.
However, you can sell things that you don't make yourself.
There are thousands of things you could retail online.
All you need is traffic.
Another hot item for online marketing is information. For
instance, you could write a book and sell it as an downloadable
e-book. you could sell e-books written by other authors, etc.
The SEO tip here is you need high quality content and lots of it for your
search engine optimization methods to work.
Make Money Online with Affiliate Sites
One of the better known affiliate programs that you can use to make
money online is the one instituted by
Amazon. You build a site about a particular subject, then enroll
in the Amazon affiliate program. You then provide links from your site to certain books on the Amazon
site, books that are related to the your site's content. Amazon uses
special software that tracks who sends each visitor. If the
visitor buys a book, (or anything else for that mater), Amazon pays you a commission.
By putting up some quality content, using good expert SEO techniques, and becoming an
affiliate for a related product or service, you can make money online
with your website!
Affiliate programs are available for everything from clothing to water
heaters. For more details about affiliate web sites see my affiliates
web site page. My Chilipepper site has an affiliate program
for other sites to sell my product, and I've got sites where I belong to
other affiliate sites such as Amazon. COM and Commission Junction.

Informational web sites make money online
Informational web sites are ones like this one your are visiting
now. You provide useful information that people are looking for, and
then place advertising on your pages. Google's adsense program is a
good choice for this. Informational sites are my personal favorite, because
once I get the site up, there is nothing else to do. I just cash the
checks when they come in every month. No messing around with credit
cards, customers, returns, etc. An nice way to make money online.
Needless to say, informational sites cover a broad range of
possibilities. Do-it-yourself sites informing your visitors how to
accomplish some task such as remodeling a bathroom, or how to fix a lawn
mower etc.
How about fishing and or hunting? Racing cars,
motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes might be good, or how about roller blading or snow skiing. One of my sites is about taking
cruise ship vacations...and it's not doing badly. I make enough
money online with my
cruisesrfun.com website to take a cruise with it each year.
My brother has a great site about
stock photography that is doing quite well. He does make money online
with his website. The Stock Photo Guy
These have been just a few ideas. Get creative and pick a
subject.
Once you've decided upon an idea or subject for your website you will
want to find out a few things before you actually build the site.
For instance, if it is a retail site, what product should you
promote? Is there a market for the product? Are people looking
for the product online? If it is an informational site, can you get
traffic to the site? If you are going to use advertising to generate
revenue, are there advertisers willing to pay for ads on your site?
