I don’t know about you but I get a real buzz when I start a new site. Then reality sets in. All that work involved. Am I even doing it right?

Every few days I will be posting here at BloggerRap about my adventures using some of the “so called” guaranteed ways to make money online and some of my own ideas. I will be combining 3 different methods into one website. These are, a membership site, an amazon store and a blog.

The posts will include the techniques I have used, looking at things like choosing which keywords to target, choosing a domain name, SEO and advertising.

So come along for the ride and see if I become just another failed entrepreneur?

But I have a good excuse, honest!

I am in the middle of starting a new website business and I haven’t had much time to look after BloggerRap. I promise to look after it from now on.

I am still in the process of setting this new website up but I should have a big announcement to make either tomorrow or the next day.

To be honest, I lost the passion to write posts about how to make money online. And with a domain name like adsenseaddict.com what else was I going to post about.

Life after AdsenseAddict?

Over the past few years I have met some great people and hope to continue that friendship, even though I an no longer posting on my other blog. BloggerRap will be my home for a little while.

I am starting a new online business soon, so for a little while most of my time will be taken up by that, but I will still be around. Instead of posting crap on my other blog, I will be posting it here.

OK, I hear most of you saying ” I cannot afford to buy products to sell online, or have the space for inventory!” But in fact there are ways to make money online and not have to purchase any stock at all for your online store, all for free.

Use drop shipping to make money online!

So what is drop shipping?

Drop shipping is a product delivery method in which the seller (retailer) accepts payment for an order, but the customer receives the product(s) directly from the manufacturer or distributor. The wholesaler/distributor then ships the order to the customer complete with the retailer’s label on the package. In a drop shipping arrangement, the retailer acts as a middleman between the manufacturer and the customer. Our profit in the transaction is the difference between the wholesale and retail price of the items sold.

And this is where we come in! All we need to do is create our own online store, fill it with products, advertise and promote our site and start making money online.

I won’t reveal the niches I target (don’t want to much competition) but I can show you some free ways to start your own online stores.

Probably one of the easiest and safest ways to start your own online store using dropshipping is Amazon.com. Using Amazon.com, you usually make a standard 10-15% commission on each sale.

Amazon have two great free options, a store and Associate-O-matic, to help create your online stores.
With just a few clicks you can design your own online store and stock it with Amazon.com products.

Here is a demo Associate-O-Matic site.

Just a note on Associate-O-Matic, you keep 90% of the affiliate traffic from your site (9 out of 10 times your Associate ID is used). For the remaining 10% of the time, you share your affiliate traffic with Associate-O-Matic.

The first time I created a online store using Associate-O-Matic it took about 15 hours, but once you have created a few online stores, it should only take you about 2-3 hours per store to setup.

Next post I will show you another way you can start your own online store using drop shipping which is a little harder to setup but is not only far more profitable but what I think is more professional.
