Review of Janet Smith book Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online

This is a review of Janet Smith's make money online ebook entitled "Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online", is written for beginners, people who know they want to earn an income online, they've probably heard of AdSense, and might even have an AdSense account, but are probably struggling to make a dollar a day.

Janet's book is marketed squarely at people who want to give up their day job, and may have tried to make money online but just haven't succeeded. This book is written people who may know what AdSense is, but don't know how to make money using AdSense. Of course the techniques in her book could just as easily be used to make money from other advertising programs or affiliate programs, but since AdSense is the single biggest ad platform on the planet, and a website that earns money from AdSense is mostly passive income after the content is written and indexed in search engines, it just makes sense to use it.

To make money online Janet says you need a system. I agree with her. Her system simple, but detailed, and doesn't require any money upfront for domain names, hosting, or paying for advertising campaigns. Yes, you read that correctly, after you've read Janet's book the only thing you need is a computer and an Internet connection. You don't need to buy domains, or pay for monthly website hosting.

For me this is the clincher on why I'm reviewing and recommending Janet's Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online. The goal of making money is to cut expenses down to the bare minimum. What is the point of registering hundreds of domain names, or paying every month for website hosting if you don't need to?

If you have a computer and an Internet connection, or you can borrow these, maybe in an Internet cafe or school library, then you have what you need to start Janet's program. In practice you're going to need access to a computer for a minimum of 4 hours per day to do keyword research, write articles, and get them published, although at a pinch you could use a computer without an Internet connection and write articles offline, as long as you can access the Internet for an hour a day.

Her book is called "Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online: How to Realistically make money online from anywhere in the world!". Janet considers herself to be a digital nomad, someone who can work anywhere and still make money. She has hundreds of websites, and together they give her a really good income, she proves it in her book.

So, before I tell you what's in the book, let me digress for a moment and cover the new FTC regulations on disclosure of earnings projections. Unlike many other ebooks I've read, Janet's Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online isn't going to promise you $100 dollars a day or a million dollars in one month. The value of this book is that it describes a system that you can follow using free websites and Google's AdSense program to make money online. How much money you make is dependent on you.

You need to pick keyword niches that pay. If you can do that or if you're willing to learn, then this book is a great introduction to working from anywhere using free websites and Google AdSense. In the future, after you've read this make money online ebook you might decide to invest in domain names and website hosting. But right now you don't need to, and you may never need to.

What are free websites? Well the obvious one is Blogger.com, and yes, you can make money using free blogger sites and Google's free AdSense program, really the two are a marriage made in heaven. Google owns Blogger.com, and they give you the tools to make money online with their AdSense program. All you have to do is write content, and get traffic.

Google owns the world's largest search engine, and they own AdSense, and they own Blogger.com, and they own YouTube, and everything is free to use. Google want you to create websites using their Blogger.com free hosting, they'll pay you to optimize your site for their search engine. Really, if you fail it's because you don't put in enough effort.

Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online contains 13 chapters and all are useful for the beginner. Janet takes a couple of chapters to explain what her make money online ebook is all about, it isn't for experts who are already making money. The book is 100% for people who know it's possible to make money online, but haven't done it yet. If you have a blog, or use Facebook, or just use search engines to find things then you can read this ebook and learn how to make money. So if you want to be a digital nomad, you'll get the knowledge you need to do so from the Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online.

Probably most people will skip straight to chapter 7, "Monetization Methods & Conducting Keyword Research", but for me chapters 4, 5, and 6 were the most interesting, basically they cover doing keyword research, building content that converts, and getting backlinks that help you rank in the major search engines for your chosen keywords.

Let me tell you that everyone I speak to asks the wrong question first. They always ask me how to optimize their AdSense to get clicks. Wrong question. Most people would be lucky to get 100 unique visitors per day to their website, and probably most of them come from Entrecard, StumbleUpon, or other social networking sites. But the reality is those people don't click ads.

The kind of people who click ads are people who are actively looking for something, usually from a search engine, and when they see your page they'll click the ad if it's relevant to their needs. The real question people should ask about making money from AdSense is how do I get search traffic, and a lot of it. 100 visitors per day might only mean 2-3 clicks, maybe a few more but really not very much. You need hundreds or thousands of visitors per day to get good income from AdSense.

Janet explains this better than I can, and in chapters 5 and 6 she really goes into a lot of detail about writing content that attracts the best ads, and then how to get a lot of other websites to link to you so that you rank for the keywords that pay well. Honestly, anyone can do this, but very few do. This is why I recommend you buy Janet Smith's "Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online" now!
