What is the best way to learn internet marketing?

14 replies
Does anyone have any suggestions for books I should read that discusses everything I need to start an IM business. Preferably a real book and not something online. ( I dont want to buy something only for that PDF file to tell me how much money I'm going to make if I just buy their next course and then their next course)

      I would agree with this. Just remember though that IM is a very general term; you might want to become a "Jack of all trades" and do SEO, PPC, SMM and so on, you might want to specialize in one specific area.

      Certainly the best way to go though is to start out reading through forums like this one!

    If you are looking for ideas, browsing the forums should provide plenty of creative juice. Once you've settled on something, seek out experts in that field.

    There are several of us that are very successful as Amazon Affiliates. There are several folks well versed in Clickbank marketing. You then have others who do well with article marketing / syndication. I could go on and on.

    I will say this about ebooks though. The problem with a physical book about IM is that IM is a very fluid industry and physical books tend to get outdated whereas ebooks are generally more up to date with what's going on in the industry.

      Could not agree more with wolfmmiii! There is only so much you can do with a physical book. In fact I feel most of those books are well rounded when it comes to providing you the theory. But in IM theory is nothing more than a few words on a page that most probably will not make you money.

      To learn IM you need to interact, participate, look at case studies and things that work right now! The basics of business never change but then the way you can implement them do change...that's the nature of the beast we are dealing with. Ergo, head over to Amazon and search for books on internet marketing if you are looking for some good time on a hammock. If you are serious about getting your hands dirty with the real IM stuff this is where you belong - right here in the warrior forum.

      To your success

    Internet marketing is a board thing to explain..

    The concept is very simple, build website, promote product and generate money as affiliate commission.

    This are the things you can do business online.

    1) Build niche review website and generate money through affiliate commission
    2) Build niche lead capture and generate leads and make money with follow up message
    3) Build authority sites, build huge amount of content
    4) Provide services like SEO, website and so on
    5) Build your own product and get affiliate to sell it.

    My suggest is to choose one from the above 5 option and focus on it.

    Each option has it's own process and steps so which is difficult to explain everything in one post. So I think pick that one which you are good at it..

    Don't just say that you want to learn internet marketing, you need to think as how you can start a business online than comes internet marketing

    I hope this helps

    Google "Mark Ling"...he has great Internet Marketing Courses.

    Google "Tiny Little Businesses" <---get on the waiting list. Seriously, it is the best IM course I've seen to date.
