Let’s be honest. There aren’t many ways to make money online without a website. The problem is that most people don’t know that you can get a website without paying huge fees to a site designer. There are many ways to get a free or cheap website and ways to get your products online without even having a website. We will briefly describe those options here.
When you really don’t want a website
If you want to sell products online, you can use Ebay, Etsy, or many of the other online sales and auction sites to sell your products without opening a website. Many online retailers start out with an eBay or Etsy account only to discover that they can build a shopping cart website and sell to customers who have purchased through eBay or Etsy in the past without having to pay the fees associated with having an account with them.
When you need a cheap basic site
Many website hosting accounts offer free website builders that help you create a website without any knowledge of HTML or CSS. You can literally drag and click your way to an entire website. You can insert your own images or use the ones that come with the program. You’ll need to write your own content for your website and embed it on the site, but you can hire a writer for that, or you can check your competitor’s websites for ideas. Make sure that everything you post on your site is unique and that you don’t use anyone’s content without permission.
A site to sell items and track inventory
There are several ways to sell products online through a shopping cart website. The first option is to create a website where you can insert simple buy buttons, the second option is a site that is a real shopping system that will track your customers, inventory, collect shipping and take care of all the details.
If you’re just testing the internet
There are also cheap websites that you can buy pre-made. These sites are already established and ready to go. Just insert your buy buttons, email address and start marketing. It’s as simple as that.
