Residual Income for Writers
This is a term many hear for Multi-Level Marketing Companies. This is a wonderful benefit from the design of that opportunity, however that is not the only industry that can generate a residual income. As a writer, there are many opportunities to do so. I love them because they offer many choices for us. We can use them as portfolio’s, as a record of where we started as web writers and where we’ve come from there, and as residual income ~ regardless of quality.
In several posts I’ve discussed Bukisa on here many times. I’ve also mentioned Triond , Infobarrel and Xomba. There are many other methods of generating a residual income online.
One of the most popular is through Kontera.com - they use text links to generate income. You would start by creating a blog, and post 10 - 20 posts, then as you draw your followers in, bring in the text advertising. It will provie a steady option for income.
There is also affiliate marketing, where you create a blog or website that is surrounding a particular product or service. You discuss the plus side, the why and the how to use the product or service. Then you direct your readers to the place to buy the service or product with your affiliate link included. This will pay you a commission based on the product or products purchased by any person who uses your site to find the goods.
As we go, I’ll make sure to include more Residual Options.
