    Starting a business requires works and a lot of research. You maybe can start by trying to learn how to use the forum search function.

    I'm sure you'll find a lot of info in this forum or on the web for free

      Thanks Marked09,

      I got your point and i will do it. I did a lot of research on it, but a person who is doing this can give me more precise and useful information, so i want that.
      I also need help to know about selling e-books by email marketing, because one of my friend told me about that.

    Hello and welcome to the forum. The first thing you should know is that there are a number of routes you can take to start making money online -- not just one. The fastest way to do this is by providing a service (enables you to get paid quickly via Paypal). The most common way to start providing a service is to do something like ghostwriting -- doing some research and writing content for other marketers.

    With that said, the most common way to make money online (and the way I prefer -- due to the residual income aspect) is what we call niche blogging. Niche blogging is the idea of creating a blog around a particular theme like dating, weight loss, electronics, fashion...etc and posting product reviews and articles about stuff going on in the niche based on what users are looking for in the search engines. It's also common to build a list with this method.

    Oh, the way you get paid with this method is through something called affiliate marketing (promoting other peoples' products). I'll give you an example. Let's say you're into the health and fitness niche. Insanity by Shaun T. was the most popular exercise program of 2014. If I were a fan, I could create a blog and write a review -- along with articles on the various aspects of the program.

    Amazon.com has an affiliate program.I could become an affiliate of Amazon, decide to promote said product (using a special link called an affiliate link). so that every time someone came across my blog and decided to make a purchase, I'd earn a commission. Does this make sense? I often tell people to think of this kind of like being a car salesman or some other commission-based job.

        Hi CreativeLogicSSE,

        In this world of online business, you need to know as to which niche you want to start.
        Niche means which subject. Examples may be Parenting, relationships, paleo, personality development etc. All these are just examples on niches.
        You can start with affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing means, you are promoting some else's product. You may get 30-70% of the commissions when you make a sale.
        Internet marketing is also a niche, you can start with this. Good place to find affiliate products are clickbank.com
        Hope this helps

    For internet marketing you need to be skilled on research. Because the success of internet marketing mostly depends on researching. Did you do that?

        Based on what I see on your site, you can offer a course on Udemy teaching people how to program , setup a website.

        There are a lot of course in u demy that you can offer, or if you're confident with your presentation skills, you can also create your own course and sell it on your website.

        Then your only task is to promote your website so it can get much traffic and sale that you want.

    Wow!!! It's a good idea that you want to be a internet marketer. So you can buy domain & hosting. Even you can use free domain & hosting. but it is not good for business. The blogger & wordpress provides free version of sub-domain & hosting. then you can start collecting original content. No plagiarism, please. then you can do some SEO, to increase your site traffic & Page rank. Finally you will will be able to earn money. Now you can do Affiliate marketing or, Adsense. Even you can sell your own products if you have. It is really easy to do this job. You may invest some money firstly to buy the Domain & Hosting. Even you may buy some content or, hire freelancer to write, if you need. Thanks for wishing to be a internet marketer.

        Woah, steady there.

        Your best bet is getting yourself a War Room membership, and carefully threading through that goldmine, choosing guides and mentors who really speak to you. Digest the information, and then take massive action, constantly, daily, until you see a reward. From there, the real incentive kicks in to take it to the next level, and expand your business.

        Okay, good, then I know!

        An example of a website/blog you can start is (and this is just an example) a one the focuses on starting websites and making them look professional.

        If you know how to code and program with languages such as html, css, php, sql etc., then you can implement a section where you teach the basics of this to make websites look good.

        There is a website that focuses on helping people with Wordpress, Wp beginner, perhaps you can draw inspiration from them?

        In any case, this is a topic that's very crowded and you're going to need something that's unique and special if you're going to enter this market.

        Perhaps you can docuement building several websites and giving step-by-step tutorials for each one?

        People love guides and tutorials because they help solve a problem. Just make sure that they're of good quality, especially if you're going to sell them.

        You could also start a blog that just talks about tips and tricks when it comes to starting websites.

        Point is:

        You can make anything work. You just need the right tools, mindset and unique angle that attracts the crowd. Be patient, be persistent and most of all, be creative. Don't be afraid to do the complete opposite of what the other guy is doing (as long as it doesn't hurt your business ofc)

        All the best and if you want additional support and help, PM me, I love helping people!

    One option you might initially pursue is Affiliate Marketing.

    One course I used to promote that is a hell of a course is Steve Scott's "Affiliate marketing without the Bullsh@t "

    I have mentioned it a number of times here at WF because it is just such a solid course.

    It is a few years old and there is one Chapter that is a little outdated but 95% of it is just really good material especially for Newbies wanting to get a good IM education

    Just google it

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    Here's the truth....

    Internet Marketing is real and great way to make a living online.
    But it isn't so simple as many see it on the beginning....

    Hard work and persistence is Involved.

    The easiest way to start?

    Warning: Work Required!

    Pick a Niche you're familiar with, and passionate about
    Search the Jvzoo, Clickbank and other Marketplaces and find some good seling products in your niche.
    Make research about a problem in this niche that people are searching for a solution for.
    Write 2,000 word article written answering that problem.

    Buy a domain and start a web side...
    Create a landing page and start auto responder.. I suggest you aweber!

    Create a download page where you will offer free report to your subscribers.

    SO how it works?
    People will opt in to your squeeze page....

    After they opt in, redirect them to your affiliate offer. Here you will make some sales right away....

    In autoresponder you will set up folow up emails. The first email should send them to your thank page which gives them their free report. They will also see again banner of the product you're promoting.

    You will continue with your auto responderemails, I suggest starting with one email per day or two...

    In follow up series you also need to make relationship with your subscribers. Not only pitch. Provide them lots of value every time you connect with them. Do not try to sell them every time you connect but provide value 75% of the time.. while you sell 25%.

    Stick with that offer until you make it successful.
    Next up, you need to get people to your page.

    Drive traffic...

    invest in paid traffic and re-invest your profits.

    You can master process or outsource anything (copywriting, webinars, technical stuff) you hate doing along the way.

    Hope this helps!

    Starting an Internet Marketing business is great and very profitable if you go one step at a time and do the things right. There are soooo many information out there that you soon will get confused and disappointed many times. It is important to find a mentor (a good one, because there are so many so called mentors that at the end they only want your money, in fact the only way they make money online is selling their products). You may want to consider watching the videos that are held in the link below. This is is a good place to start with because the information that is there is free and you will get a better idea about Internet Marketing in general.

    Cheers

    You can promote Udemy courses as an affiliate via Linkshare.com....
    {{ DiscussionBoard.errors[10020251].message }}
  • I am not speaking in general here but what worked for me is I've started with a good course in affiliate marketing. There are tons online and you may even get free courses on affiliate marketing.

    I believe that these courses works. However of course the biggest challenge would be you. You need to really exert some effort, time, and money making the course work out for you. Focus and dedication is also needed.

    Good luck!

    Its a good idea to be an internet marketer. One ca easily do this simple works. Firstly one have to site. it may be paid or, free version. but paid version is better than free. You need to write the good & informative content only. key word selection is so important. then you may need to do some seo to increase your site traffic. finally you can earn from this sector.

    It sounds to me that you are quite determined on blogging, which is absolutely fine. Just know that this is definitely a long term journey. So if you're expecting big payouts within a few weeks, guess again.

    Just focus on delivering quality content to the right audience. Figure out how you want to drive visitors to your website. Whether it be paid like PPC - FB, Google adwords or free such as SEO or social media. My suggestion is to find out where your target audience likes to hangout and go from there.

    In terms of monetization, you can sell your own service, promote other people's product or leave it up to Adsense.

    There is so much more to it and this is just the tip of the iceberg. Just put your thinking hat on and decide what's the best course of action then go from there.

    Really, it all depends on few factors: How fast do you want and NEED to start getting income from it, How many hours you can spend on that daily and in week, How much money do you have for investment (it's absolutely ok if it's zero), What experience and knowledge that could be used you already have (graphics, writing, languages, marketing, researching, etc.), What you are in to (you like writing, or maybe graphics, maybe researching or video creating..).

    If you need fast income and you don't have any investments (most common factors):
    - Write down your knowledge and experiences that you could use. Think about anything that could be did inside your computer (writing, graphics, languages, pictures, researching, fast learning, video creation, video teaching, etc.)
    - Go to websites like fiverr, freelancer, elance. Search for even more on google: "freelance".
    Register on every of it, search through all suggested jobs, like you was a buyer and see what you could do also. Here you go, you have all needed examples for you to post your job. See how others are presenting it, and either same do you.
    - Google stuff related to what you do and find some forums. Register there, start posting, be nice to community, add your service link to signature and here you go - you have a nice and shared interest community to communicate with and potential to get some buyers.

    If you don't have any knowledge:
    Too bad, go to 9-5.. lol, I am joking. If you doesn't have any skills, just go and learn something that is interesting for you! For example taking pictures, working with software like photoshop or macromedia or any video creation soft, programming, writing (see what sells the best before learning to do any of that - you want to earn money, right?). While doing that now for real I'd suggest you to take that shitty 9-5. If you don't have any knowledge and skills it will take time to learn all that. There are possibilities also that you will find a great mentor who will give you an awesome step by step method and you will succeed with it, but these possibilities are very slim.

    What is the most important to be successful on IM is to have a lot of time to sit in front of your pc, have a lot of willingness to learn and a ton of patience and persistence, because there tons of people who do IM for a few years without any good results until they start succeed and make huge money while sleeping.

    Good luck!
