The real joy of making money online is you can do it anywhere in the world that you can get a connection to the internet.

There are only three things necessary to make money online.

1. A website or blog that is set up for making money

2. An autoresponder for follow up.

3. Traffic for both.

Today getting a blog set up with WordPress is a very quick way to get started making money online. Your blog serves as your website and you can add pages to it in a matter of minutes it you can type. The blogging software builds the pages for you.

You need a quality hosting company for your blog, you need a domain name which should include the keywords to describe what you do, and you need to choose a WordPress blog to use. Setting up WordPress from there is very simple if you can read and follow instructions.

An autoresponder allows you to follow up by email automatically. You capture a person’s name and email address when they come to your blog. To get them to give you this information you offer something like a free report that relates to the theme of your website.

You give your visitor access to the free report in exchange for them giving you their name and email address. Now you can follow up with them over and over for years to come. This is called building a list and is a very valuable tool to use to make money on the internet.

Getting traffic to your blog is the hardest part and takes an ongoing effort. This is true of any business and it certainly is true here as well. The more free, and nearly free types of traffic you can create the better off you will be in the long run.

To do this you will have to master many types of free advertising such as blogging, article marketing, forum marketing, and social marketing. If you have money to spend starting a pay per click advertising campaign you can get traffic right away, but this can be expensive.
