Are You Able To Make Money Doing Nothing With Affiliate marketing

By Karri Owens


The short answer is a resounding "NO"! At least not if you are new to marketing online. Not at first. But most everyone desires being able to make money doing nothing. And online marketing can be used to eventually make passive walk away income. Residual income is income that is still generated after the initial effort has become expended. So, if you work tirelessly and do things in the actual beginning, you will continue to earn from this effort, even long afterwards you have moved on to other things.

Success advertising online usually comes very slowly. You might go on for years without seeing any return, but if you are consistent and always work at it, you will gradually begin to see the money rolling in. And when this happens, you will see the snowball effect occur and eventually you will be able to make money doing nothing!

So what do you need to work at? You have to bring traffic to whatever it is that you are promoting - to your blog or website or to your affiliate product website. The more people you can get to your website, greater sales you will make.

So what are a couple of the pros and cons of internet marketing?

First of all, if you prefer to have a very regular "guaranteed" paycheck where the period of time you put in equals the amount of money you receive, internet marketing is probably not for you. If you do not like to study and learn a new challenge, learning internet marketing is probably not for you. If you need someone else to motivate you or manage your activities, affiliate marketing is not for you.

One of the most obvious pros of online marketing is that you don't have a boss letting you know what to do. You work for yourself and earn all the decisions. Being able to work whenever and wherever you please is a good goal to shoot for.

Your pay is not an hourly wage or salary so there isn't any limit to how much money you can create. Let's say for example that you opt to write your own e-book (it may sound tough to you now but this is a very attainable goal if you do just a little bit of training). You spend time and effort on this e-book and then you make money off of the sales for years to come - simply make sure that you are driving traffic towards the sales page of your e-book.

This is what passive recurring income is. . .and it is one of the greatest benefits that website marketing offers. Putting out or representing a quality product once or twice a year can have a great impact on your income for that months or years, even if you're not working. Again, that's how you can make money doing nothing.
