Adding residual income is Free

You can use programs such as Google AdSense . You see these all the time on websites. They are targeted Google Ads and when they are clicked on you get paid by Google.

You can also have affiliates

I'm sure you have taken training, read books or use specific tools for your trade on the internet. You can become an affiliate and advertise these products on your website or blog. This brings in another stream of residual income.

Information folks are looking for

Face it, if you have information out on your website that folks are looking for they may click on a Google ad or buy a product you have used if it has been helpful to you.

If this happens, there is residual income from the 95 to 99 percent of folks that will never be interested in your primary opportunity. The good thing is, you have helped them and everyone wins.

Don't become a large advertisement!

Remember, folks use the internet to look for answers. They do not want to go to a website that is one large advertisement. If you turn your website into a large advertisement there will be NO monetizing only a click on the back button. You loose!

Before you set-up
