What is a dedicated server? A dedicated server is a web host that only serves your website. Unlike a shared server, a dedicated server is entirely your own. Although the equipment for the server is usually leased from the provider, the dedicated server is entirely yours. It serves only your website.
This means that all of the space and bandwidth afforded by the dedicated server belong to you. You are hosting your own website. You can use all of the space and bandwidth on your dedicated server for your one website, or create affiliate websites that can generate ads and revenue to your product or service website.
There are two ways to make money on the internet. You can either sell products or service to individuals or businesses, or you can make money off of ads and affiliates. You can also combine these to do both.
Suppose, for example, you have a website that sells curtains. You have a fine site where customers can shop for many different styles of curtains. When they have chosen what they want, they can put it in the shopping cart and check out. This may work well for you.
Perhaps you would like to make more money with your curtains. Maybe you would like to have more customers and sell more curtains. But you are using as much space as you can on your shared server and it cannot handle a lot more traffic. You choose to spend extra money to get a dedicated server.
Now that you have a dedicated server, you have a lot more space. Although you may be content with your curtains website the way it is, you do have unused space on your dedicated server. How can you get that to work for you?
One way to do this is to create little websites that have the sole purpose of generating revenue and directing people to your website. You can do the history of curtains for one, and write about home improvements in window treatments for another and so on. Get some cheap content loaded with keywords that will drive traffic to your site. You can advertise on your own sites for free and also use links that customers can click on that will bring them to your curtain site.
In addition, you can have as many ads as you want on your little sites. You can even sell affiliate products. If your business is curtains, affiliate products can be other home improvement products or soft domestic goods, such as pillows or bedspreads.
With your own web host, there is no limit to how much money you can make on the internet. While you may have started out just wanting to sell curtains, you can generate revenue in many other different ways. This can end up paying for your web hosting while driving more traffic to your business.
Think outside the box, if you have an internet business website, and think of ways that you can generate more revenue by incorporating ads and affiliate products into your websites by using a dedicated server as a web site host.
