Tried 2 years and no results, need new start (not English market)
I've asked one question several months ago, and thanks those people who encouraged me,
Recently I really need to change my path,
and found many good info on warrior forum, so I spent some hours reading threads, but still think it would be good to ask...
I live in Taiwan, local, almost 30 years old now male,
below is some description about me and really awkward situation I am in
dropped out of graduate school, spent several months at parents' home and passed a test to become a worker of a government-related corporation, stayed there 2 years and resigned,
I've studied some things from GKIC, Npod, etc., thought I could derive the principles and apply them, (yes it was not wise to quit the job that time since i didn't have enough income to replace)
I set my goal to devote 2 years then I'll try to find a job if no progress,
the dead end is this year 12/31
I built my site with wordpress, bought a domain from godaddy, host it in (bluehost now), result is just about 100 local free subscribers, made about 200 US dollars total....(it should be New Taiwan dollars but i change to USD so it is easier for you to know)
Now I live in parents home, found there are more cost than I expected, and my money is really short now and tried to find jobs/part time jobs, found no one interested in the internet marketing skills I learned
Big questions for me I found..
1) affiliate marketing almost doesn't fit me because almost no info products of the language (chinese traditional), so i wanted to start by info products
2) I am short in money, so could not outsource people to create contents etc., to make info products myself takes lots of time
3) I seem to have no advantage in IM, people here prefer to just buy people to make a website for them (like the outsource), and they would not consider a one-person like me (I don't have set any legal office, so I am not even considered SOHO here)
4) about joining a group? few people think the same as me, most prefer new platform type site, new marketplace website, new trends like app/cloud calculation, and people they look for are most programmers/designers, not one self-claimed internet marketer
5) some people I found in google search results, internet marketing, I somehow feel they do hype and feel sick to do more research about their website, tho I should do more market research..
so I think I should not go into internet marketing (not the your millionaire mentor 2011 by Michael Cheney said, start with IM niche)
I am thinking to start a new site, maybe use nano continuity model by Ryan Lee, from a different niche,
the niche I want to try is... self improvement
but I really feel the failure I had and since I still have not made good results, it would make me dumber to start self improvement site, and even try to monetize (like a paid membership site)..
thanks for reading so long.. I tried to describe my situation as short as possible..
what would you suggest me?
several more things..
1. need to suit some laws to do China business, and it is impossible for me now, I am one person now and I just want to go for local taiwan audience
2. I tried to offer services like setting wordpress site, but found no response (no credits, no office, not programmer/designer)
thanks..
Nothing to see here
