If you are a beginner which you probably are you must be wondering how will you be able to do this, and right now you must be feeling overwhelmed for all the information that is being delivered through your computer, information which probably has you very confused.

If you are confused and you don’t know what you are doing I would like to suggest one thing before continuing with this articles main point. Don’t rush into things, even if you feel tempted don’t go buying any product that promises to make you rich in a week, or in a month, I mean don’t even think about spending your money for nothing. Most of the products that promise such results, not most I would say all of those products are scam. It’s actually quite funny because when a person really wants to earn money from home, and learns how to do it, they probably aquired that knowledge through free sources of information, like top notch informative blogs like this one, or through really cheap internet marketing and SEO courses online, cheap as in one dollar kind of cheap.

If you are getting started on learning about different ways to earn money from home then you might feel a little frustrated because everything you have heard of  probably requires some type of investment, probably a lot of money has to be spent to get you started. And if you are looking for this type of information it is because you probably don’t have that kind of money yet, ok so no money, no problem. Now on this article I’m going to point out some ideas that might get you started with little to no investment if you wish. It will probably take a bit longer and you have to be in a state of constant learning, you know simply absorbing tons of information.

The most important part is that you get started don’t get caught up in just learning, start applying, start testing, and through this process you will develop the skills, the creativity and truly learn and understand the way money is made through the internet. I’m sure that if you are creative and constant you will quickly learn and develop your own ideas, probably after combining your improved knowledge with the tips i’m going to give you. These tips are just like eye openers they will let you understand how things work around the web and how many opportunities are out there for you to find so you can earn money from home.

In this article I want to focus on how you can get started making online money without investing money, you will probably have to invest time, surely. Now my first idea for you to earn money from home is by buidling your own online store, that good ol’ ecommerce. Now don’t think that this is impossible is actually very easy to do, even if you have no money. How could this be done? well here is one little site that might get you started, build an amazon store through a niche blog or niche website, if you really want to earn money from home as a beginner then you have to focus on niche sites to get things going and so that you can fully understand the process so you can later work on much larger sites.

Now before you go all crazy signing up for the amazon affiliate program, please stop! Before you continue with this article I hope you have done a little bit of research and I hope that you understand that if you don’t have the right information you will do this all wrong and you will not get money. Remember if you want to have an online business that has success you must get traffic, is that simple, traffic. The type of traffic you need comes from the search engines, organic traffic. I’ve talked about this many times in previous articles and that is why I always try to get this point across, organic traffic is targeted traffic and it is free traffic, which allows you to have more profit. The way to get this traffic is through highly advanced internet marketing done trough SEO.

Now if you want to keep reading to follow the process that I will recommend to start your own online business through a niche site to earn money from home using nothing but totally free resources, you must have learned the minimum SEO requirements, like choosing niche/market, picking your keywords, picking related keywords, title tag, article’s body, backlinks, exposure, ppc marketing if required (although this would take you out from the free border), etc.

Now this process is done through the creation of a free website or free blog, or similar services. Now I won’t stress with free websites because it is a very tedious long process to get done, If you want to create sites using free hosting and free domains then you would have to create databases, trouble with php, css, etc, and this is something that not a single beginner wants, this will only get you crazier and more confused, although there are some options that allow to create great free websites for fre as well but I will talk about them on other articles. So we are going to keep this simple by using free blogs, by promoting affiliate products in hot niches with low competition.

Of course you could always start a succesful affiliate free website with not so much hassle, all the instructions provided, great tools from a site called moreniche at moreniche.com, they provide great guidelines, great information and great affiliate niche products that have a lot of demand and a high conversion rate, this could be a free simple way to earn money from home with your own online business, but as i’ve said before setting up free hosting websites may be a little bit complicated for a beginner even for an adavanced blogger or internet marketer. Most of the people that really make money don’t know squat about really technical details, they usually get someone else to make the configurations to the whole thing, some hosting companies even have auto install options for softwares like wordpress.

So if that idea seems a bit too difficult, then lets continue with the first real idea to get you started, that is by creating your first niche blog on blogger.com. As i’ve said before blogger is incredibly flexible and lets you adapt any type of monetization method to your niche blog business. The first thing you have to do is find out what type of product would fit your blog theme, ok so first pick a blog theme, trim it down to something very specific. After finding what keyword brings in a lot of traffic and that pays well through adsense clicks, that’s just to make sure that is a keyword that means business, this will mean that there is a lot of business being made through that keyword which means that you will probably do even better with affiliate sales, you have to make sure that internet marketing competition is low, you can do find all of these answers and estimates using google’s free tools, with the same products only better and with the difference that other companies ask you for money to use them, tools  like the adwords external tool, google search to see what your competitors are doing, see how strong their sites are, see if you can beat them for the first place, etc. Remember that the goal is to make it to google’s first result for that keyword when it’s being searched.

Ok, so now you have your niche picked out, your keywords, now you have to wait a bit for your site to be indexed, after your site is indexed and starts ranking well on the search engines for that keyword then you will probably start getting some traffic. Now you can monetize your site by creating eStores with affiliate programs like amazon which I mentioned above, remember this is to create a business to earn money from home without money, so we want to rank for in first place to get most of the search traffic which is the type of traffic that will click or buy. Through the amazon affiliate program you will be able to incorporate in your site cool links and banners to promote sales, you can place widgets to display products that can grab the attention of any customer easily, or you can create an amazon aStore which is a self contained online store provided by amazon which is embedded in your niche blog’s template.

Now not only through amazon you should do this, this is just an example maybe each page of your blog will do better with a different product, maybe you decide to go with a larger blog that covers more keywords that require a wide variety of products in order to convert well, so you can join many good affiliate programs with lots opportunities to create online businesses that give you the chance to make money from home.

You could also follow these same steps and open a zazzle store, or incorporate your own products from zazzle to the mix of products offered in your site. A nice thing about zazzle is that you can create lots of products quickly, up to 100 products at a time from your own templates or zazzle’s templates, zazzle is print on demand website company and it has proven to be a very effective business. Zazzle has a lot of options and a lot of tools that you can easily use for your advantage to create a succesful online business that allows you to earn money from home without investing a dime, because you print on demand, so only when you get an order the product is processed, and it is delivered very quickly which makes your customers very satisfied customers.

Now here are two more options that could be a variation to amazon and zazzle. You could include in your free niche blog, a cafe press store which is also a print on demand company, it’s zazzle’s competition actually, and they have over 55 million products to offer at least that’s what they say. These two sites allow you to reach millions of customers, and they provide you the ability to display products that blend in with your theme or topic, niche/market, etc. due to the fact that you can create what ever you want that mixes with your theme, for example if I had a bob marley accesories niche blog, I could create products like bob marley t-shirts, bob marley coffee mugs, etc. The same thing can be done with zazzle. The Cafepress affiliate program is now managed www.cj.com which means that you have to sign up for cj, which means that you will be able to promote an infinite amount of affiliate products or services, because cj.com is one of the best most complete affiliate programs on the internet, and has probably the largest database of suppliers.

Another cool service to monetize your highly targeted niche blog, would be the incorporation of chitika eMinimalls which displays relevant ads through a widget which also displays the products, pictures, descriptions, etc. You can get more detailed information by following the link. With chitika you can also display adsense ads which you have to integrate without any doubt to your niche site to earn money from home from various different sources through the same site!

Ok if  you have read this blog before then you should know that another idea to monetize your niche site to earn money from home is the incorporation of in text ads, like vibrant media, infolinks, kontera, etc. This companies I just mentioned are the best. If you are new please follow the link to learn more about in text ads.

I had forgotten mentioning joining affiliate programs to promote CPA offers, which have incredible monetization results because you get paid on a cost per action basis which means that a person does not have to buy anything to make you money, they just have to fill in stuff usually. You can find great opportunities at maxbounty.com and other networks that manage large databases of advertisers that have CPA offers, and yes they are free to join as well.

Ok this article is getting kind of long so I think I might have explained thoroughly some ideas on how making money from home by starting a business that requires no money works. These methods work, you just have to work hard until you get your business going.
