Building Authority Websites using WordPress

My name is Paul Ashbrook and I have put this website together to help you build authority websites using WordPress and promote them to get more traffic. My background is that I have successfully built numerous websites of my own and I also work in the online marketing department of a web design agency.

You can visit my blog to get the latest information on what I’m working on at the present. I’ve also put together an Internet marketing resources section that will show you all of the products I use to successfully grow my own personal business and also develop the sites of clients.

The Methods I Use

I have had the good fortune to be able to use a variety of different Internet marketing methods and tactics. However, there is one that I keep returning to because it gets great results, it does not require a huge investment and it is suitable for beginners. This method is to build a content rich website that will eventually develop into an authority in its chosen field. These types of websites tend to get a lot of free traffic from search engines such as Google.

Once you are getting a stream of visitors to your site you can then monetize it using easy to implement methods such as Google AdSense or affiliate programs. Using either or both of these methods means that you do not have to directly get involved with customers and it is therefore an easy way to start making money online with the minimum of hassle.

The Advantages of Authority Websites

Here is an overview of some of the advantages of building authority websites using this business model:

  • There are numerous free and low cost tools such as WordPress that you can use to build and promote your website
  • It is an ideal side business that can be built up while you are in a full-time job, but has the potential to grow into a full-time income
  • This is a long-term strategy that has worked for many years and will work for years to come
  • You can develop passive income streams that do not rely on you being present in the business – this allows you to build a business that still generates income while you are on holiday or taking a break
