Business / How To Make Money On Twitter From Nigeria by ugojibaby: 2:07pm On Jan 29, 2018

There are several ways of making money online. Though they are not all equal in terms of income generation, they are, nevertheless, valid. When it comes to how to earn money on Twitter, there are various opportunities through which you can make money on Twitter.
While many may try to argue the above fact, there are several stories of people who earn on the Twitter on per tweet basis.

While not everyone can earn huge sums like the celebrities from Twitter, there are still other remarkable ways you can earn money on Twitter. All it takes is some creativity and a little self-will. If you’re ready, let’s explore some of the ways to earn on the micro blogging platform.

1. Use sponsored tweets
You can charge businesses for tweets from your accounts using ad services. Sponsoredtweets.com is a reputable ad service for Twitter users which allows you to set your desired price per click for ads that you’d tweet. Interestingly, you can also choose which tweets you want from the list of thousands of ads of advertisers which is updated regularly.

To qualify to use the ad service, you must have at least 50 followers and 100 tweets and also a Twitter account that is at least 2 months old. However, the more followers you have, the money you stand to earn.

2. Discover new leads
This method requires a little creativity and a little research. As you know, Twitter has a fantastic search engine tool. So you can search for new customers based on their bios and what they’re tweeting.

For instance, if the trend is about people tweeting about lack of power supply and the fact that their phones have been down, you could simply tweet at individuals and let them know you’re selling power banks at an amazing price. The point is that you need to look beyond the entertainment in the trends to spot the needs people have.

3. Promote products
Being a popular micro blogging platform, you can seize the opportunity to promote products and get paid a commission for every sale that comes through your link. Yes, you’re right, this is called affiliate marketing.

While you promote the products, always remember to help customers see why they need the product and also to include a call to action. There are several affiliate programs you can join such as Konga, Jumia, Amazon, Commission Junction, ShareASale etc.

4. Twittad
Twittad claims they’re one of the first popular ads service in existence. Like other ad services, you can monetize your Twitter account and let it earn some money for you. You are also able to set your cost per click and wait for advertisers to accept your bid.

This service has been tweaked continually for 2 years so you can be assured that you’re dealing with a company that is ethical and ........

Business / How To Make Money On Facebook In Nigeria by ugojibaby: 1:52pm On Jan 29, 2018
[img]https://1.bp..com/-Mc0EvDT7cgE/Wm7lcsSc-PI/AAAAAAAAADY/PIj_r4Z8P1YaB0YOpxOKcvy6k7MhwqaGQCLcBGAs/s1600/How-to-Make-Money-with-Facebook.jpg[/img]

There’s more to social media than sharing selfies and chatting with people. These activities are not wrong but there is something many people have never given a thought and that is – you can get paid for using Facebook.

You can earn money online from Facebook in various ways. You just have to select one or two of the ways you are about to read and apply them. In all, you have to see the social media more than just a way to keep up with trends and follow pages and see it as a money making tool. So if you’re wondering how you can earn money online or to be specific, how you can earn money on Facebook, here are 3 smart ways to go about it.

1. Earn money through Facebook page
A Facebook page can fetch you a lot of money depending on how well you operate it and monetize it. How to earn money from a Facebook page is not complex. To begin, you will need to have a page. If you don’t a Facebook page, you can easily create one.
The first thing to do is to find a niche that you love and that you observe Nigerians love. There are several examples like lifestyle, celebrity, OMG, travel, humour etc. The next thing to do is to begin to publish content on your Facebook page. You need to ensure you do this consistently.

While you’re creating and publishing content on your page, you need to make sure the content are interesting and engaging. Create room for your page followers to contribute. Build relationship with them by asking them questions or carrying them along in your posts. As your followers increase, you can begin to accept sponsored posts and ads while you get paid for it.

2. Earn money by selling products on your page
The existence of the internet has made it easy for people to easily buy anything they like. You can also earn money n Facebook by selling products to people. While you regularly give updates on your page, you can slide in posts that advertise your own products. If you want to boost your sales, you should consider occasionally offering discounts on the products.

But if you have no products to sell, you can turn to the affiliate marketing path. You can promote products on Jumia, Konga, Amazon, Ebay, ShareASale.com, Commission Junction etc and earn a commission on each sale. You can also promote these offers through Facebook ads.

3. Become an influencer
If you don’t want to own a Facebook page, you can still make money from your regular account. All you need to do is become a Facebook influencer. An influencer is someone who has . . . . .

The problem with most Nigerians, is the "traditional stereotype" -- which is, to be educated and later hunt for a white collar job.
As long as this abounds, Nigerians will never adopt freelancing as a good job prospect.
Thanks for the thread though. I believe this would make NLs aware of the goodies associated with freelancing.

Business / 7 Freelance Websites Nigerians Can Find Jobs In 2018 by ugojibaby: 11:02am On Jan 27, 2018
Freelance websites have become a great way for many people all around the world to earn money online, enjoy the freedom freelance offers or gain more professional development. As this “solo business” way of life continues to gain more grounds, many freelancers are reaping the fruits in more ways than one.

There are many websites on the internet that function as freelance marketplaces. These websites are over 100 in number, giving new entrants into the business an array of options. So if you’re looking for a website to work in the year 2018, here’s a list of the 7 best websites you should consider:

The $5 is the lowest budget on gigs but you can earn way higher than that depending on the level of your expertise and the nature of your gig. If you’re really looking for the easiest website on the list to begin, then Fiverr is your answer. URL: www.fiverr.com

Business / Freelancing: Why Nigerians Should Start Today by ugojibaby: 9:47am On Jan 27, 2018
Freelancing is simply a means where you work independently and sell your skills to various clients. Unlike the regular offline jobs, with freelance, you are in charge of everything in your business. All your clients care about is that you make quality deliveries within the stipulated deadline.

Take a cue from the U.S

Many Nigerians still overlook freelance as a way of earning good income online. As a result, many people continually complain about either their low income or unemployed status or inflation rate. This does not have to be. Take for instance, statistics from a research by Forbes showed that about 35 percent of the U.S workforce are freelancers. That translates to roughly about 55 million Americans! This goes to show you how lucrative freelancing is.

Why freelance will still be relevant in future

The reason why freelance is lucrative is that there is a demand for various skills. The demand determines the supply and by extension, determines the continued existence of freelance. Many companies and start ups prefer to give projects to freelancers simply because it doesn’t make sense for them to employ someone.

For instance, a company that wants to redesign their website may find it cheaper to just hire a freelancer rather than employ someone for the job. Start-ups that need a logo will find it cheaper to hire a freelancer than employ a graphics designer for the job. When you put in mind that there are thousands of companies and start-ups with several needs all around the world, the idea of freelance will make more sense to you. So it’s a win for these businesses and for you too!

3 reasons why Nigerians should start freelancing today



1. Everyone has a skill

Nature has blessed everyone with a skill that allows us express ourselves and earn a living by it. For instance, some people are naturally wired to be geeks and so find coding to be interesting. Others have the natural ability to write what someone wants to read. Another set of people have a natural flair for languages and can speak one or more foreign languages. Yet still, some people are musically gifted.

No matter your ability, there’s a demand in the market for what you’ve got. So, why under-utilize your abilities when it could also fetch you an income?

2. The income is attractive

Literally, there’s no limit to what you can earn from freelancing. If you’re not content with what you’re earning as a freelancer, you can always push the price up by raising the quality your offer or by finding new clients. Either way, it’s more money into your account.

There’s no need explaining how tough Nigeria is. You can make it easier for yourself through freelancing.

3. It works for both the employed and unemployed folks

There are several success stories of people who started freelancing while still working at their regular jobs, but eventually quitted when it was obvious that freelancing fetched them more money than what they earned. Others turned into freelancing because they couldn’t find any offline job to do.

Either case, the point is clear that you can take freelance as a part time business and also a full time business. If you take it as a part time business, you may just have to turn down many jobs and limit yourself to the workload you can finish in your spare time. If you want it full time too, it’s still awesome!

Business / Can Nigerians Really Make Millions Of Naira As Amazon Affiliates? by ugojibaby: 9:29am On Jan 27, 2018
Amazon has over the years established itself as the most popular eCommerce site in the world. Amazon has created an avenue for ordinary individuals across the world to make millions of dollars on their platform.
Some people make money on amazon selling their own products while others earn by buying and reselling other people’s products on same amazon.

The set of amazon money makers I want to focus on in this article are the amazon associates.

The amazon associate is an affiliate program that is run by Amazon. This simply means that you can promote a product from amazon and earn commission for the sale of the product.

some things you should know are that, if you recommend a product today and the user leave the site without buying the product, amazon has a 90days extension period. Meaning if he comes back within 90 days to make the purchase you will still earn your commission.

In addition to this, let’s say you promoted a jean trouser and the customer ends up buying a shirt or bought a similar product, let’s say a chinos trouser, you will still earn your commission.

Commission for sales of amazon products range from 4-8.5% depending on the category and number of sales you have made.

Five Things You Must Do If You Want To Be Successful In Amazon Affiliate Program as a Nigerian

1 You Must Consider Reviews.

Before promoting any amazon product, you must check the number of reviews and if the reviews are negative or favourable. This is so because promoting a product with much negative feedback will alter your reputation and also lead to refunds.

2. Review the Product You Are Promoting.

After considering what people say about a particular product, you also need to make a detailed research about the product, read different reviews about it, do a more extensive review and subsequently publish the review on your website. Or alternatively you can obtain the product and test it out.

The essence of making a review on your website is that most people today carry out a little research on a product before buying. So provide them with the information they need to know and since they are already in buying mood, you will most likely make a sale.

3. Use Amazon Widgets For Promotion:

Amazon widget is a simple html code that you get from amazon and add to your website or blog. These widgets often display your favorite amazon products, best amazon deals of the day, amazon search bar from your website, etc. the best part of the amazon Widgets is that you have the opportunity to customize exactly what it will display. A research revealed that most bloggers recorded an increase in sales using amazon Widgets.

4. You Must Increase Your Knowledge of Amazon Associate Program

Most bloggers often think that their duty ends from the time they place affiliate links in their post. As Brian Tracy described it in his 21 ways to success, most people want to learn for the first few years of their life and use the knowledge they acquire for the rest of their life. They often forget that things change very fast and for you to ensure your continuous relevance you must learn continuously.

5. Promote Only Relevant Materials.

A crucial reason why most people do not earn money from amazon is that they promote products that are not relevant to their blogs and website. If your blog is about dog training, do not start promoting chairs because you saw a chair you liked. Yes, it might have good reviews and you like it but that is not what your audience came for. You must prioritize the interest of your audience.

Business / 5 Sure Lucrative Online Businesses You Can Start In 2018 by ugojibaby: 9:10am On Jan 27, 2018
If you’re still skeptical about the reliability of online businesses, you need to wake up from your illusion. While the nation slid into a quagmire of unemployment as more people were laid off by companies, earning money online became the succor of many Nigerians


Before we proceed to identifying the types of online businesses that will be lucrative this year, you may want to read the testimonials of nairalanders who succeeded in online businesses.

This nairalander bought her first car from freelancing and moved on to achieve great things for herself. Read her story here: www.nairaland.com/2479987/story-how-bought-car-income

This other nairalander built a house for himself and also bought his first car from an online business! Read his story


here: www.nairaland.com/3224561/how-bought-car-built-house


The most recent testimonial came from this nairalander who achieved financial freedom for himself via mini-importation. Read his inspiring story here: www.nairaland.com/4276191/nairalanders-advice-helped-physically-challenged You will remember that I emphasized these businesses a lot last year. And, if there’s one thing you can guess, it’s that, for every single nairalander who share his/her success story, there are at least 10 others who have equally become successful.

Now that you’re convinced that online businesses are viable, let’s take a brief look at the businesses that will be successful in 2018.


1.. Mini-importation:

Mini importation has transformed many job seekers into entrepreneurs. Even those with jobs are in the business because it’s not time consuming. You can order and import goods right from the comfort of your home on your internet-enabled device. All you need do is look for items that are needed in the local market and import them from China. If you like this business, you can anticipate my post on how you can start the business.


2. Blogging:

While many believe that blogging is a saturated business, it’s really not! Blogging remains a lucrative business as you can earn from adsense, adverts, affiliate marketing and things you sell on your blog. The problem with blogging in Nigeria is that everyone is trying to succeed in crowded niches such as entertainment/celebrity niche. There are other niches with few bloggers which you can delve into. We will discuss this in details in my subsequent posts.


3. Freelancing:

This list cannot be complete without freelancing. Many nairalanders are into freelancing and are making it big time! What is the secret of succeeding in freelancing? You need to have a skill. But to earn money online in 2018, you need to learn new skills aside writing because the supply is greater than population, thereby making competition difficult. Once you have skills that are in demand, you will start earning steady income online. If you don’t have any idea about skills that are most lucrative, you need to watch out for my post where I will make a detailed list about them.


4. Affiliate marketing:

In affiliate marketing, you earn commissions by referring people to buy certain products. You can be an affiliate marketer with several companies. In Nigeria, you can become an affiliate marketer with Jumia and Konga or you can turn to Amazon and ClickBank if you want to deal with international e-commerce websites. Affiliate marketing is a lucrative online business, but like every other business, you need to first learn about it. I will do my best to provide as much information as you need to successfully begin in my future posts.

Business / 8 Reasons Why 90% Of Nigerians Fail In Online Business by ugojibaby: 9:14pm On Jan 25, 2018
It is beyond every reasonable doubt that the internet is the mega world that is willing, able and ready to provide income for all Nigerians that are ready to tap from its wealth.

On a daily basis, many Nigerians are enthusiastic, excited and want to get into an online business. The unfortunate part is that 120days later, 95% of them are already out of business.

From my research, I have discovered that the reason why so many businesses fail, all comes down to 10 main reasons.

in this article, I will share this reasons with you and give you tips on what you will do differently to succeed.

1 Avoid The Get Rich Quick

Today, the online business world is filled up with ponzy schemes, MLMs, Cryptocurrency investments and hyips that promise Nigerians heavens on earth but leave them poorer than they met them.

What I want you to realize is that if you are promised 30 or 50% returns on your investment, the first thing you should ask is that where will that 30-50% come from? If somebody will have to lose a trade before you get it, then it is gambling and not sustainable because those that loosed today will win tomorrow.

On the other hand, if it requires newer members to pay older members, then that is a ponzy scheme and also not sustainable. In few month time, there will be 100 old members and maybe 10 new members. Simple logic will tell you that 10 cannot pay 100 and it will surely crash. My advice is that, if those returns are not coming from the sale of a product, commodity or service, then you are on the verge of losing your hard earned money.

2. Lack Of Commitment

Most Nigerians start something today, in the next few days they will leave it that it is not working. Many Nigerians have bought great ebooks that they never used or implement them halfway and expect money to start flowing in. if you have such an approach for an online business, then quit for a 9-5 job today.

3. Focus Is The Key

If you must attain a reasonable height online, the focus is the key. You must go a step at a time. There are too many daring things online that you will like to try out. But 1 accomplished task is better than 100 daring task you tried.

Remember Steve Job’s wise saying about focus, “focus is not just saying yes to what you are doing but also saying no to other things that might seem important along the line. The key still remains that you stay super focused on one thing till you make it work.

4. Procrastination

Many Nigerians have good online business ideas they want to implement but they claim not to have time but yet they have time on Facebook and WhatsApp.

In the words of Brian Tracy, “eat that frog”, Brian Tracy used the sentence eat that frog to get people into fast action. He cited an example that if you have like 10 frogs to eat, start by eating the biggest one without any procrastination. In other words, Brian Tracy is telling you that, after listing out the most important things you want to do for the day, start with the most important one without procrastination. This is what he referred to as the biggest frog.

5. Information Overloaded:

Most Nigerians have spent years researching the internet with next to nothing to show for it. The outcome of the research is nothing because researching with no action cannot produce a meaningful physical result.

6. Lack of Information

This is a near opposite of the above point. Most people do not have a well-structured guideline to follow that will help them succeed online. So, most of the times, they just fumble.

The similarity between those that suffer from information overload and lack of information is that both of them lack a structured proven path to follow and both of them will not earn money from what they know and do not know.

7. Lack Of Motivation and inspiration

Most of the times, if you tell people that you are going to be a millionaire online soon, they see you as if you are crazy or going into scam.

The truth is that the first thought of theirs is very much correct that you are crazy. Both of you think differently.
There is no need telling them except if you want them to kill down your spirit. The only person to discuss such ideas with is a like-minded person that can understand the details.

Business / 6 Steps To Become Very Successful In Affiliate Marketing by ugojibaby: 11:44pm On Jan 24, 2018
Some of the major reason why internet marketers are embracing affiliate marketing every day is because of the potential affiliate marketing has of being able to make you millions of Naira without you creating a product, writing of content, building sales pages etc.

Despite the fact that more marketers are embracing affiliate marketing daily, a report revealed that, 10% of affiliate marketers makes 90% of all the money.

The goal of this article is to point out to you what those 10 percent are doing so that you can join the league.
What is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is the process of searching for valuable products, creating a relationship with the seller/vendor and spreading the gospel about the product to the world in return for commission.

Put in a simpler term, “Mr. A” sells eBooks, you recommend the eBooks to “Mr. B” and “Mr. A” pays you commission for helping him to make a sale.

1. Promote Products you have tested

It is always easier to promote a product that you have tested and trusted. You will be more passionate with your promotions because you genuinely trust what you are promoting. Promoting what you have not tested makes your subscribers loose trust in you. Once that trust is gone, you will be sent crumbling as your subscribers will no longer buy anything you promote. Most world class affiliate marketers’ makes about 2 different sales to each of their subscribers annually. It takes a lot of trust to get them to buy again and again.

2. Create A List

In affiliate marketing, a list is extremely important. Most people limit the concept of a list to email list. A list in this concept is a bunch of subscribers that you can always get across to. They can be your YouTube subscribers, facebook fans, twitter followers, email subscribers etc. this are all set of people that can easily get your publications. Ensure that you build a list.

3. Provide Value:

Once you have gotten your list, you must provide value to the subscribers. It is like a goldmine where you go to get value from time to time. Remember that before gold can come out of the mine, a lot of value must have gone into the mine. Time have been spent on research, monetary value went into the mine in form of resources and mining tools. So also is it with your subscribers’ list. You must spend time and energy to create it, give value to the subscribers and then get value in return. Remember the old popular saying that says “value begets value.”

4. Keep Learning:

In the field of technology, lag time is about a period of 18months. A lag time is a period between the inception of an idea and the time of its adoption. E.g., today, apple Inc. thought that IPhones should now have batteries that are made from water, it will take about 18 months to get that product to the market. The time between the conceiving of the idea and the time it was put to general usage is lag time.

In the field of affiliate marketing the lag time might just be a period of a month, I say so because on daily basis you will keep seeing newer strategies. This simply means that, in order to remain relevant, you must keep on learning and updating your strategies continuously.

5. Be Specific:

Most new affiliates go into affiliate marketing without being specific of the Niche they want to go into. A new affiliate marketer might choose wealth as a niche, wealth is too broad to be your Niche bro. Wealth entails: real estate, forex trading, freelancing, internet marketing, ecommerce, affiliate marketing etc. the outcome is that this will bring more traffic that will leave instantly their by increasing the bounce rate of your website. A person might visit your website with a hope to find information about affiliate marketing only to find out that it’s about forex trading. You must be specific to be able to drive in highly targeted traffic.
