How to Earn Money on My Computer

It's amazing what you can find playing around on Jaaxy (free trial near the bottom of the left sidebar).

I was trying to find a good keyword to target for an article about how I make money on my commute to my regular job, and when I put in the words "How to earn money on your commute" I found that almost no one searches that, but that an average of 72 people a month search

How to Earn Money on My Computer

and 0, count them 0 quoted search results (pages with that exact phrase) are indexed in google.

Well, since the way I earn extra money on my daily commute happens to be on my computer, I might as well share my secret:

I blog here.

Yep, that's it.

It takes 25 minutes or so on the bus from home to my job, and I have a little pocket wifi modem.

So when I hop on the bus, I hop straight onto jaaxy and type in keywords for the topic related to affiliate marketing that I would like to write about for the day.

I find a keyword with at least 50 monthly searches and less than 10 quoted search results (nearly guarantees me the first page on google in quoted search results).

Then I make sure my blog title includes the quoted phrase and that it appears in the first few paragraphs somewhere.

Finally, I write what I want to write.

So far, I've made about $13 on average for each time I've done this (you see, if anyone comes to Wealthy Affiliate direct through your blog or any other content you've created with no affiliate link, you get a commission on anything they buy here). Nothing to write home about, but a nice bit of extra cash to buy myself lunch with no guilt. :-)

Are you already a member of Wealthy Affiliate? Then you know how great it is. You might as well blog here (making sure to target low hanging fruit) and make a bit of extra cash.

Are you not yet a member? Why not, since you are looking for a way to earn money from your computer? Try it free for 7 days (without giving a credit card or any payment info) by clicking "Create a Free Account" at the top of this page.

You can thank me later.

Please leave your comments and questions below. I thrive on the interaction!

Great post, thanks for sharing...

Yes, this dawned on me, recently. At first, I didn't think the posts were open to the public. But, after I realized they were, now, I get it... And, I have adjusted my writing for new or prospective members as well.

That's pretty cool. I would like to know the answers to Lynne's questions too. Thanks Jeremy.

Thanks so much! One more question - if a referral comes into WA through your blog here would it be yours? How would that work?

Thanks a lot Jeremy :) could I do this any other programs blog?

Thanks Jeremy! I have trying to make money from my computer and so far it is only contacting my clients as an IT Consultant via e-mail, remote control of their systems with mine, etc. I have signed up with Jaaxy but haven't used it that much yet, I need to utilize it more for sure. I really appreciate the tip! Keep up the good work!

wow that is a great ideal all the best Max

This is good information, thanks for sharing.

Hi Jeremy

Oh wow that is interesting. Do you not have a website at all and just blog here?

So your blogs you write here rank on 1st page of Google and then anyone that comes to WA through your posts are your referrals?

Is that what the 'Content" traffic is on my stats here in WA?

2

Hi Lynne, I have several sites of my own, but none that I keep up to date that promote Wealthy Affiliate. I simply don't have the time to maintain one, so I just blog here instead.

And yes, I believe that is what 'Content' traffic is.

2

Oh cool, thanks for giving me the feedback. I have quite a lot of Content traffic, more than my other link hits.... very interesting. I share a few blogs and done a couple of training tutorials. Maybe I should put more focus on it. Certainly something to think about!

Thank you!
