Ever wonder how people are making money with their passion online?
Well if you didn’t, do know that they are and they’re making a lot of it at that.
There aren’t many jobs out there that will pay you for doing something you actually enjoy and the world wide web is one of the few places that will actually do just that.
I have been making money with my passion online for the past three years and I get to spend a week in Las Vegas with some of the people who do exactly like I do.
Not a bad gig, right?
The beauty about all this is the fact that we all make our living talking about things we actually have an interest in and of course we work from home or wherever we want.
As a matter of fact, I’m actually doing this post at a coffee shop while I kill some time before I got to get my kids.
Best job in the world I tell ya, and I would love to share exactly how I’m able to do this.
So How do We Make Money With Our Passion?
We share it with others.
Yup, we do nothing more than talk about photography, MMA, parenting, and whatever in the world it is that you find enjoyment in.
Every single one of us has some type of problem that we need help with and rather than turning to a friend or buying a book, we tend to turn to the internet for advice.
Thank you Google.
Want to learn how to bake chicken breast?
Google it.
I mean, everything in Google has to be the best information, right?
Not really, but this works in our favor and I think you might like the overall concept.
Behind Every Search, There is Money to be Made
I’m sure we’ve all “Googled” something online and it usually comes in the form of a “how to” or “_____ review”.
“How to bake a cake”
“How to fly a drone”
“Best BBQ pits”
Whatever the search may be, we have all done it in our lifetime as not only do we live in this thing called the information age, but we rely heavily on the internet for help and advice.
Sometimes hanging out our dirty laundry is not the best thing to do, so we ask our good old buddy Google.
Did you know that upon performing a search you may have landed on a site geared towards making a normal person like you and me money?
That person provided you with some valuable information and in some cases landed you on Amazon.com or some site you had no intention of visiting.
Whether you purchased a product or not, that person has most likely made money (thanks to you) and you didn’t even know it.
I give you information, you give me money.
Not literally, but in a way that only an online marketer would know.
Advertising
The obvious.
Some sites came with an ad or two (sometimes way more) and by simply clicking on one of those ads someone most likely made money.
This is very much true and probably the easiest way to make money with your passion.
Not the most effective way to do things, but if you can get someone to click on an ad, you can definitely get rewarded especially with Google’s technology and their displaying of relevant ads to what people are interested in.
This is just one of the ways you can make money with your passion and a very easy one too.
Affiliate Marketing
I’m not too sure if you’ve ever heard of a thing called affiliate marketing, but it’s what people like me use to make our living from the internet.
And yes, it is through our passion that we are able to make this money.
By simply taking other people’s products and promoting them on a website, you can make tons of money by sharing it with the online world.
Being a parent, I have developed a passion for raising children and of course buying the different products that I have created a site on the “parenting” niche.
This site above makes me money and I do nothing but talk what dad’s do or need help with and a lot of the times I make most of my money doing product reviews, which is beyond a great way to get traffic to your site.
By talking about something I enjoy doing, I am able to make my living completely from the internet, which is truly an amazing business that I’m sure you’ll find to be the same.
Every Penny Made Starts With Some Online Real Estate
I went from a ground pounding infantryman, to becoming a full-time blogger.
I was never into writing and I had no clue as to what blogs were even about, but all I knew (at least thought I knew) was that people were creating blogs and talking about their lives and sharing it online.
All this time, I didn’t know that you could make money blogging.
Some good money too!
I was never into the whole blogging thing, but I did some research and landed on some site that taught me about affiliate marketing.
Rather than talking about what we had for breakfast, we were taught to blog about things we were actually passionate about.
At first I was all over the place, but eventually got it down to where I actually enjoy doing what I do, which is simply helping people.
Affiliate Marketing + Blogging = Money
From learning how to do affiliate marketing to creating a website and blogging, I am forever grateful for what this whole online adventure has done for my family and I.
Thanks to everything I just mentioned above, I’m able to share my experience, MY PASSION, and most especially this opportunity.
I don’t care what you’ve seen out there on the internet about making money overnight or any of that nonsense, this is the way money is really made on the internet.
I have tried almost every type of “opportunity” out there and I can promise you that 99.9% of them are not legit and only a way for the owner of the product to make money.
Not you.
Believe it or not, the way money is made online is through your passion, a nice website, and your ability to share it with everyone else online that share the same interest.
If you can help people, you can make money online and yes, it’s really that simple.
Getting Started – In The Right Place
You can actually find all types of affiliate marketing/blogging training on the web, but doing that will only leave you scratching your head as no one really has a complete platform dedicated to bloggers.
Believe me, I’ve tried it.
Go here to get your website domain and then go here to get hosting, but you will also need to go here to learn how to do the whole making money part.
Those were the days and I’m really glad things don’t have to be that way anymore as some people had the brains to simplify the art of making money online and websites.
Why Not Bundle?
Gone are the days of computer coding and having different services for a single part of your site as here is actually one place that has everything you need on one platform.
From the best training all the way to the best help and support, I have found a home in a place called the Wealthy Affiliate.
After joining a community of online entrepreneurs I have gained so much knowledge that I have found a true passion in helping people do the same.
If you’re ready to start making money with your passion, I’ll be more than happy to help you get started as I know exactly how it is and I’m not going to lie, it sucks without having someone to throw your silly questions at.
I’m not going to do the work for you if that’s what your’e thinking, but I’ll definitely help you get started and keep you focused all the way up until you start making money.
They actually offer a free membership (get started for free here) so you can use that to see exactly what it is you will be doing before you commit to anything.
Get familiar with the site, and most definitely apply what you are taught and you will see how this passion of yours is truly a great way to make a living.
If you can do that much, I can promise you that you will be another online success that’s ready to kick their 9-5 to the curb and spend more time with your family like most people will never do.
Now get out there and make things happen as the idea alone is not going to make you rich.
I hope this post has given you all the information that you need to know what it really takes to make money with something you are truly passionate about.
Until next time…
Blog with a passion or don’t blog at all!

I love all your blogs been reading up on all info about wealthy affiliate and MLSP and others too doing a comparison about just different company in general and nice thing was hardly no negativity (bare few) about wealthy affiliate. Other company had many or had legal issues or tell you advertise on Facebook. Well I don’t like to do that friends aren’t interested at all. this company I would never have to bother my friends or family unless they came across my blog or niche about my product. So advertise about other products means I don’t necessarily have to purchase the products correct? Like if my nichee was say health & wellness products. And does Google charge you for putting an ad on 1st page instead of showing ad on 2 or 3rd page. The only cost in premium is $49 & I get leads also. ? That is a pretty great price for all the training your gonna learn I am definitely interested understand it will take fee months (4 to 6) before I really start seeing $$ come in. But if I know there is a live person I can talk to as well then that would be great too. Love reading alot of your blogs great job hopefully you will see me on the other side wealthy affiliate.

Yes there is definitely real people to talk to Cindy and you don’t have to pay any affiliate programs to promote their products, but you will learn all of this within Wealthy Affiliate. $49 is all you pay for the premium membership, but don’t forget that you can also create a free starter membership account, which will show you exactly what you will be doing before you pay anything. One amazing platform and you can also find me on there if you signup here. I will be able to help you, so let me know you’re in and I’ll be sure to get in contact with you.
