There are many ways to make money with a website. Often the type of traffic will determine how much money you make. In this article we will talk about 4 popular ways you can make money with your website that allows you to capitalize on the different types of visitors coming to it.

1. Place PPC ads on your site. Google AdSense is an excellent example of this. This is the easiest way to make money because you do not require your visitor to purchase anything. You make money every time someone clicks on one of the Google ads they see on your site. No doubt you've been on websites that have Google ads on them and maybe have even clicked on one. This doesn't sound like it could be a very good money maker, yet Google pays out close to $1 billion a year in affiliate commissions.

2. Place cost per actions programs on your site. Filling out a lead form is the most common type of CPA program. Sometimes this can be as simple as getting an email address. Joining affiliate networks is the fastest way to get access to multiple CPA programs to promote.

3. Sell products on your site. Affiliate marketing is a top way to begin. Selling digital information is a good way to go as well. ClickBank has a free affiliate program you can join. With one ID number you can promote thousands of products across numerous niches.

4. Build an email list and market products to an. I throw this in because you can make money selling to your email marketing list in all of the ways we have listed above. By building a large mailing list you can develop relationships with your subscribers which will help you sell products to them. Anytime you build a new web page you can let your email list know about it.
