How To Make Money By Releasing Free Wordpress Themes.

If you want to make money the easy way subscribe to my RSS feed, and learn how to make money from your feedreader.
I know I have not been updating this site as regularly as I want to, and I have not been putting in a lot of time recently so I thought I would hit you guys up with a post that would rock your world.
I have used this method to make over $3000 in one month, and over $500 in one night, and it still works.
This is my Christmas gift to my readers so enjoy it and don’t forget to link back to ME!!
This is a simple step by step method on how to make money with wordpress themes:
Step 1: Buy a wordpress theme. The best place that I have found to buy a wordpress theme is here, you can get one fully coded in the cheap price range of $50-$200. I have seen themes sold for $30 on here fully coded.
Step 2: Now that you have your theme you have to figure out how to monetize it. Very simple. SELL LINKS! Google doesn’t like paid links, PR is dropping… WAH WAH WAH cry me a friggin river man. People are still buying links. Where do we sell links? The best place is again on digitalpoint, now don’t be greedy and start adding 10 links in the footer because no one will buy, and anyone that does will promptly have his or her link removed by the blogger when he finds out the footer of his theme is filled with links. Your best bet is to add 3 sponsored links and one designer link. You can get away with selling a sponsored link for about $30 and a designer one for $50.
Don’t be disappointed by the price though. I have had some links sell for upwards of $200 a piece. Want some proof? Check out this post and this one. (You can copy my sales pitch if you want to).
Step 3: Rinse and Repeat. Seriously does it get any easier than this?
If you have any questions post them in the comments and I will try to answer them as best I can.

Wow Mubin, definitely a great Christmas gift. I’ve only heard a lot of talk about people not wanting to sell links on footers for free themes any more. Good to see it’s still working.

Boys like girls, if you follow the links in my post you can see the post where I sell the links, those are the places where you can give away the themes.

This problem with this is that I don’t see how you’d make $3000/month unless you design your own themes. The link sales only cover the price of the theme being bought in most cases.

Really have to try this, its just that I’m scared in spending like 60 to 80 dollars on a theme, but then sellings links on it for only 30 :(.
I’ll see.
