Q&A: How to Make Money Online from Pay Per Click Programs

I sent out an update in which I asked my blog’s readers and visitors about what they would like to learn about making money online? Most of the questions have been answered via the posts I’ve already written on this blog. If you have things you want to learn about making money online, please send in yours too.

 
Here is the question I received…

This pay per click programme, how can I be making money on this? I will click and make money on every click (could it be real?); Do you have package for this? If yes. I will be very happy to hear from you. – Victor

 
Here are my answers…

 
The first and most important thing I need you to know is that, making money from pay per click programs is real. I make money from some of them I’ll be sharing with you later in this post. And the other most important thing is that, if you click on them, you won’t be making money but you’ll be helping the person that places the pay per click ads to make money. This simply means, once YOU click on pay per click ads, SOMEONE else will be making money.

 
So, how do you make money online from pay per click programs?

 
A pay per click affiliate program, also referred to as PPC, is certainly one option you should consider in making money online. You earn every time the PPC ads on your website/blog are clicked. The earnings are generated regardless of whether a sale is made or not. It is easier to make money from PPC if your ads are correctly placed and are relevant to your blog/site content.

 
Your earnings is based on what the advertiser is willing to pay. The more competitive your niche is, the more advertisers will pay to get traffic to their sites. Your ads will likely bring in a higher commission – sometimes a dollar or more per click if the ads match your site’s topic and you get good traffic. As your site traffic grows, these earnings can add up to a substantial income.

1. A blog/site to place the pay per click programs adverts.
2. Good contents on your blog that people love to read again and again.
3. Good pay per click programs.
