The numbers of people who dream about having an Internet business without having a website are quite high. I know this because I talk with many beginners in my business. Most of them have fallen victim to one or more of the Internet business scams out there that tout the gold mines of money awaiting those who implement their “no website” methods. Don’t get me wrong, there are some people who have done very well in their Internet business without having website…Maybe .0001% off all those attempting. The primary method of making money with an Internet business without using a website is a method called “Bum Marketing”. This involves buying domain names and redirecting them with one’s affiliate links. Then the owner of the domains writes articles on the topics of the affiliate products and submits them to the free article directories. The domain with the redirect is placed in the bio of the article. Although this method does work, it’s not as easy as it sounds. A good knowledge of niche selection and SEO are required in the first place. Secondly, the vast majority of articles created with this method will only, at best, result in a few sales per month. In many cases the numbers can be 1 sale every few months. This is fine, but in order to have any substantial income, many hundreds of articles must be written. Sure, every once in a while an article is written that does far better. But this usually results from the skill of the marketer…a skill that comes with much practice. Building an Internet business is not something that comes easily or quickly. Beginners must realize this and know that patience is required if they are to ever enjoy a successful Internet business.
