1 More Try Before I say Goodbye To The IM World

No link in your sig to your site ...

Put a link in your sig instead of an email mate

To be brutally honest, I think it's true that IM is just not for everyone. In reading the OP's post, it's pretty unclear to me what he's saying and i wonder if other content he's written has come off similarly to other readers.

I do know he's talking about some kind of blog setup service and wondering whether to put the link in his sig or to start a WSO. I can say pretty clearly that setting up a WSO for your offer, based on your post above, would NOT be a good idea. If the WSO came off as being unclear and, frankly, uninteresting I don't think you'd have very many sales...not even enough to get your money back for the WSO.

Alternatively, passive income is available to everyone...you don't have to do IM yourself, thankfully! If you're successful at making money in the offline world, I would suggest doing that and then buying your way into passive income. If you do decide to continue with IM yourself, I would consider hiring someone to write your content for you that's very clear in getting your ideas across.

Finally, I'm really not trying to be a jerk...just giving my honest feedback and hoping it helps you.

Its okay, any kind of comment is acceptable as long as it is geared towards helping some

I understand your comments. But the truth is that I am a Nigerian and trying to make money online from this part of the world is not easy. Now my major interest is site flipping and I know this is kind of capital intensive if anyone desire to succeed with it. I have 3sites all set up for this purpose and I have used the last cash I have to pay for domain and hosting so I just need to make some seed capital to invest in this venture.
The issue is this, I need cash to pay for a more robust internet connection. The one I used before was a night plan package which is usually 9pm to 6am but I realised that I am not always able to function effectively within this hours coupled with the epileptic power supply is why I can not take up writing jobs to make more money and thats why I opted for blog set up service with affiliate marketing in the system. I know it wont be hard for me to add all the necessary tools within a few hours and I can do this from a public cyber cafe during the day. I also need money for generator and fuel.
Is it acceptable to use a free blog as my website for this blog set up service since I don't have the money to pay for another site and hosting and would the clients trust me for using a free site as my site? The truth is that I dont have cash now and believe it or not am using a mobile phone to comment.

Wow, Nigeria, eh? Funny, I've got a really interesting site for you to check out that I found the other day:

Make Money Online Nigeria - Useful Tips to help You Make Real Money Online in Nigeria, Build Internet Businesses and also Create Wealth

He gives income reports, explains his process, etc. I think the purpose was to take 411 scams and show them how to make real IM money from Nigeria...was a pretty cool idea.

It's interesting to hear your perspective vs. those that are just doing it for some extra cash...

I would suggest doing some work on oDesk, Fiverr, etc. for some extra capital if you have bank accounts setup to accept payment. Is it extremely difficult to accept payment from Nigeria? I would imagine it would be...

If you want make money from IM niche, don't use free blog. If using free blog I suggest you to play Google Adsense or Amazon, but for IM niche need to be more luxury to make someone buy or clicks something affiliate offers.

not trying to be harsh but if you have already given up, why tell the whole world? No one informs others of committing suicide if you really wanna do it.

Remember, quitters never win, because they already quit anyways.

Why don't you try other ways to make money online? Rather than sticking to something that does not work. Let me tell you something about mine:

About two months ago, I also posted here that I should give up on internet marketing. Many of the Warriors here responded saying that it's not yet the end of the line. For more than two years, I tried, I failed....I tried, I failed......until I finally made some money! These Warrior Forum members are willing to help me out, so I really thanked them for motivating me to keep going.

You have to believe in yourself man, don't give up and don't be a sore loser. Stick to positive attitude and keep your engines on.

Exactly if what you're doing is not working, then you need to change that and do something else.

That's the only way to make it work.

Good God!

Let me see if I get this right? You want to teach people how to make money online despite the fact that you pretty much suck at it.

YES, IM coaching can be a great niche, but for crying out loud, make sure you have the experience to back it up.

I have one piece of advice for you. Find a niche you know and love. There must be one. Make some money out of it. Come back to the IM niche when you've got a story to tell. Simple plan.

Please stop wasting your time following the gurus. Go in some uncharted waters and for once make some bucks for yourself. You'll find it much easier afterwards.

Let me get this straight..you make free blogs..and in exchange split earnings?
Do you have experience with this, eg. wordpress, SEO etc.? If so...i have like 900 millions of blogs to make...i don't care about splitting 50:50 as long as you do all the work

(How would you technically implement the splitting? The affiliate links need to be rotated too)

I am not sure on what you are trying to say, but I would say that if you are doing it for free and you have made the best effort to make poeple know your service exists, and you got no order..
maybe the service just doesn't sell i.e there is no demand for the service.

Well if you are that desperate, there are many other easier methods to start earning money online, try searching around. For example you can try doing a gig in fiverr.

Hi geegel, you seem to be getting it all wrong here. I never said that I want to teach anyone how to make money online. Why are you the only one seeing it differently. My advice: read the thread all over again.
Thank you Alex Smith for your support on this and also correcting geegel.

Thanks ,Alex Smith. But where can I get the site up for free if I don't have to use blogspot?

Alexa Smith, this is what I can do: I can install wordpress from the Cpanel,I can change the theme, I can install widget,insert adsense code,hypelink keyword to affiliate products, embed video in Post, install google analytics,install google site map generator, create auto responder form as well as contact us form,install all-in-one SEO pack,make the blog auto-ping every post. There you have it. Thanks!

You are offering a "free blog setup service" but don't know where you can make one for free? See the problem there?

Seriously...wordpress.com is a good start if you dont have the money for self hosted,otherwise self hosted wordpress.

Give it your all and keep any doubts out of your mind and you will surely see success in whatever you plan on doing. Good Luck.

agree with TryBPO, thats not necessarily quitting, it just means your learning to move on to make things work, quitting is when you put a complete end to everything, youre just changing your action steps in another direction

GeogR, i know about wordpress.com and the result for using such free platform is xyz.wordpress.com or at blogger xyz.blogspot.com . Alexa Smith suggested a free hosting that does not look like blogspot and that's what I was asking. Thank you.

Okay, you set up blogs. Get yourself a $1.99 dot info domain and set one up and explain what you do. Then you're in business and you look like you're in business. Here's a free hosting company. Lots of bandwidth and storage. No ads.

Free hosting, web host free, free websites hosting, freewebsite

Once you make some money, find a paid hosting company because free isn't always reliable. Good luck.

Leading on from Travlinguy's post. Once you've got your site up, maybe offer free blog/ website set ups to local businesses to get the ball rollin'? Then expand your service from there.

Your post reads like it was written by a child, there's no link in your sig and what exactly is a blog setup service? Most hosts have a one-click install for wordpress these days...

I'm not really sure your model is going to have much of a market. For one, most people already have shared hosting, thus no need to get new hosting, thus no money in it for you. The other thing is that most people can also already set up their own blogs as it is pretty easy to do. Am I wrong about this? I could be, but that's just what I think from reading the posts here.

So you would be targetting the most newest of IM'ers - people that don't yet have hosting or experience with setting up a blog. Maybe you could also offer them a report on how to promote their blogs or something?

Make your sig more appealing to your target market, perhaps. And you MUST have a website to direct them to in your sig, IMHO no one is going to send an email to you about this and most people are going to want to check out a website and see what you are about.

How long have you been in internet marketing? The worst thing you can do is to quit. You will think back for years to come of what could have been and that is not a good situation to be in.

Take your time, slow down a little bit, and do some research on what you are doing and what you may be doing wrong.

Do you have any leaders to look up to or contact in IM that will be willing to help you?

If not let me know.
