Making a Website For Free

There are many reasons why making a website for free can be of interest to you. In this article I will explain how and the best way to go about it... depending on your reasons for wanting a website. That’s right you don’t have to spend a penny to get a website up and running, whether it be for information, family, marriage or making money online. I will show you how and where.

Informal Personal Websites

Making a website for free that is just for your family and friends is very simple and easy to do. Most people use a blogging system to create a blog. They are easy to use, there are many ways of doing it for free and most of them get indexed within a day (meaning it is registered with Google within one day, a website can take 3 months). The quicker your blog or website gets registered (indexed) the quicker people can find it. The best blogger websites are Blogger.com and Wordpress.com, both are free and easy to use so your blog can grow as you develop your blogging skills and both rank well in Google and Bing search engines.

Making an Affiliate Marketing Website

Making a website for free that will generate an income is easier than you may think. You can use the same system as above and the two blogging websites mentioned are perfect for this because they are indexed very quickly. In fact most marketers these days use the blogging system to promote affiliate products. If you don’t know what affiliate products are, they are online books that people hopefully buy through your website or blog and you get a commission from the owner for selling it.

So for example your hobby is dog training and on your blog down the right hand side you have links to dog training eBooks... which pay you commission when purchased by your visitors. An affiliate product is a whole other article but many people are making money from selling other peoples products on blogs they have created for free.

Selling Products Online

A website where you can sell products is known as an ecommerce website. This type of website is a bit more specialised and it isn’t really achievable for free. However, if you only have a few products it is possible to put them on your free website. You can also for a small fee use Auctiva Commerce which is a template based system for people wanting to sell many products online and it’s very cheap and simple to use.

Making a Website for Free

The best place to go for free websites is moonfruit.com, freewebsites.com, webs.com, gbbo.co.uk (Google UK), Wordpress.com and of course Bing. They all use templates so you don’t need any programming skills. Most have video help and great support lines if you get stuck.

If you are thinking of building a website or blog don’t be put off by the technical side of it, it really isn’t that hard, just take your time and read as much as you can and watch all the video help and you will be amazed how easy you will find making a website for free.

What is The Best Affiliate Marketing Niche?

If you are into or thinking of getting into affiliate marketing then finding the right niche is paramount. If you choose a niche that is over subscribed you will be pushed out by the established and wealthier affiliates that are promoting their products for this particular niche.


There are many products and even more niches so don't make the mistake of wasting all your time, effort and sometimes money on oversubscribed niches. If you like a niche like ‘relationships’ which is over subscribed, break it down and just deal with marriage or divorce. Don't try and cover all relationship problems as millions of people are doing this already. Take one part of relationship troubles like 'broken engagements' and focus on just that niche.


Another example is 'dog training'... another oversubscribed niche, don't bother covering all 'dog training' just focus on one part such as 'barking'. There are affiliate products that teach people how to stop their dog barking... focus on this one section of the 'dog training' niche and swamp the internet with information on this subject with links to your affiliate product.


My wife runs a blog that deals with Mirena Coil Side Effects and this is more popular than most of the stuff that I do because it is a big problem for some women and hardly anyone is dealing with this issue. So... some niches are better than others and it's important that if you are serious about making money from affiliate products or a product of your own that you choose the right niche.


There has to be a starving crowd (meaning people that need help) and the niche has to be fairly free from over exposure. A good friend of mine Travis has done a short video on this subject and the link is at the bottom of this post. If you are new to this it all seems a bit complicated... but it really isn't and there is plenty of help online. If you get this right and pick the right niche and a great affiliate product to promote that helps the people in your chosen niche (the starving crowd)... the world is your lobster :-)


Affiliate marketing is the easiest online business to work on and if you get it right, you can make great money very easily and like all business models, once you get it right... you just repeat it over and over and boost your income by doing more. All you need is access to the internet, the right niche, a great affiliate product and a blog with regularly updated content on your chosen niche. You can devote as much or as little time as you like to it, obviously the more you do the quicker you will start earning and the more money you will make.


If you are new to affiliate marketing or would like to try it to generate a little extra money in these difficult times there is plenty of free help online if you just know where to find it. The best place to start is at Cashpointmonkey.com where there is loads of free information on all kinds of issues.

Free Grant Money For Bills and Personal Use

By Austin Warty

If you are at least 18 years old and an American citizen, you may qualify to receive thousands of dollars in free grant money from the government that you never have to pay back. This cash can be obtained for a variety of persona uses, but the grant money you request must be used for the reason specified in your application.

For instance, if you request to receive a $12,000 grant to pay off your credit card debt, than you must use the money to pay off those bills. If you are caught spending the grant funds on something other than to help you get out of debt, you may be asked to repay the money.

There are hundreds of government grant programs and even more private foundation grants that you can apply for. While a good portion of these funds are for community development grants and research grants, there are plenty available for your personal use. You can apply for grants to pay your college tuition, grants for single mothers, and grants to help you with down payment money on a new house. You can even receive $50,000 or more if you have an invention or idea for a small business.

Free grant money for personal use is available, but you have to ask for it. The government does not advertise or market these programs, which is why most people are vaguely familiar with government grant money, but don't know where to go to ask for it. Once you have the right tools and resources to find and apply for these programs, the sky is the limit.

Instantly access to the database to get your free grant money. See how much you can qualify to receive and obtain your check in as little as 7 days and learn how to get money free...
