Five effective ways to make money out of web templates

1.) Creating turnkey pages from web templates

Turnkey websites are the hottest resource on the internet. If you are a web
designer, web hosting company or simply own a website you can make good money by
creating turnkey websites from readymade web templates.

What are turnkey websites?

Turnkey websites are completely functional websites having relevant content, domain
names and hosting. Depending on the type, turnkey websites can have shopping carts,
interactive scripts, graphics forms, forums, live chats etc. All that a buyer needs
to do is buy the website and he is ready to do business.

What you need to do?

In order to set up a turnkey website business, you need to do the following;

1) Purchase professional looking web templates with resell rights or join a template
membership program

2.) Modify the web templates by adding relevant content, links, images and graphics

3.) Purchase domain names and hosting accounts

4) Host the completed web templates as websites

5) Advertise/promote your websites for sale/rent by SEO and Email marketing

What will be your ROI?
You ROI Will surely be very high. This is because of the fact that the retail value
of turnkey websites is around $200 - $500 per website and can also go higher based
on the website quality. You can also go for renting your websites instead of selling
them. As you will be purchasing web-templates for a cheaper cost your ROI will be
higher
2.) Joining an affiliate program
Affiliate programs are quite popular over the net. If you have a well ranking
website with a good traffic margin then you can very well join an affiliate program
offered by many if not all web template providers. All that you need to do is
promote their templates and you can make easy money in the form of commissions.
What you need to do?
In order to join an affiliate program you need to register yourself for the program.
As soon as the registration process is over you will receive a link or banner advert
that you can place on your website at strategic places. In case your website visitor
clicks the banner and makes the purchase you get a part of the commission.
Commissions can range from 2% to 10% of the actual sales proceeds. Most companies
use tracking software programs or individual services like clicks galore, commission
junction etc. for tracking sales.

3.) Reselling/redistributing web templates

If you own a website that attracts good traffic or is likely to attract traffic in
the future, you can go for purchasing templates as a bulk and reselling them. To get
redistribution rights all that you need to do is purchase reseller templates that
many web template providers offer today.

What you need to do?

All that you need to do is purchase web templates that come with resell rights. You
can then modify the templates and sell them to potential customers with
non-exclusive rights. You certainly need not be a html pro to start this business;
instead you can partner with template providers who offer related services like
template customization, hosting, SEO etc. and earn good commissions by referring
your customers to them.


4.) Joining Referral based programs

Referral programs are very unlike affiliate programs in the sense that they do not
involve you to place links or banner ads on your site. This is basically a word of
mouth program and requires you to promote products by word-of-mouth. In case a
customer referred by you joins a membership program or buys a web template and
refers your name in the referral section, you get a commission. But such referral
programs are offered by very few template vendors today.

5.) Web designing with web templates

If you are a professional web designer you can earn higher returns by making use of
web templates. Firstly you can satisfy your clients with the speed at which you
complete the work and at the same time get more ROI as the readymade website
templates are way cheap. All that you need to do is buy exclusive templates and
resell them after making modifications. One way to go about it is by joining
membership programs offered by web template providers. This will give you access to
a host of web templates at a onetime cost. Most web designers can almost double
their profits, take care of multiple projects and also retain customers by making
use of this technique. Also web designers can attract new customers by lowering
their service charges.

So what if you can't make web templates on your own, you can still cash in on web
templates by making use of these sales techniques.
