What is a Supplemental Income?

We decided to put this information here in the site progression. You don't really want to worry about doing anything here just yet. Get your main Niche up and running then you can decide on supplimental income ideas.

The main reason for this being here is because it may help you with ideas. After you are comfortable with your first E-Biz you can start building supplimental income. This, as in all member pages, will always be here for you.

A Suplimental Income Source or Stream is simply another facet of your e-Biz to do what it says. Suppliment your income. You can market Affiliate programs selling other peoples products, another of your own product lines, resell rights for your own or other products, a paid Ezine or a number of things.

The main thing you want to remember is that you should keep everything about a supplimental program seperate from your other sales sites except for advertising it to your mail list. We will cover that in more deatil in the Ezine section. In short run all of your ventures on their own sales pages or sites.

This is really simple to do. You don't have to go out and purchase multiple Domain Names fior each venture until you have things working well and $$ coming in.You can run everything off of one hosting account and one Domain Name. Let me show you how to set this up.

Let's say you have A Domain Name, mypackages.com. Every server requires an index.html page to serve to the Internet. When you type in a domain name, the browser will serch for that domain name then an index.html (or index.htm).

Like this: http://www.mypackages.com/index.html You have a choice here. You can work your first sales letter and program directly in the root of your domain server or Website account. This could include all the pages you need. Sales page, thank you page, ezine pages for archiving your ezine copies, a pop-up subscription page for your Ezine and any other pages you might need (see Website Information for more examples). 

Now we want to add a new product or service and it will need a sales letter and all the necessary other pages. We can now create a new folder on the server called "Second Product" (or anything you want).

Working with the directory on the server is about the same as working with files in My Computer. This is cussed and discussed :-) in the FTP section. You will learn how to manage and move files from your Puter to the hosting server.

Inside this folder will be your pages for the new product/service just like you did for your main sales section, starting with an index.html (sales page) then the other necessary pages for this site. The URL or link would look like this:
http://www.mypackages.com/second product/index.html
Because it is in a seperate folder it can have its own index.html page.

Want a third product? Just make a new folder and add it on your server.  We provide you with all the space you will need to add as many products as you can promote.
