The Truth About Making Money Online

15 replies
Hello everyone, I want to explain my experiance with making money online! Now I'll be honest, I do NOT make a lot of money (yet) but I am ahead of a lot of people in the sense that I do generate income and yes its mostly with clickbank products although to be honest I have money all over the place with google adsense, infolinks, peerfly and other networks. What I have discovered and I still find myself distracted by all the "make money fast" offers out there that this is not going to happen fast! It could but only if you UNDERSTAND what you are doing. Now there are so many different ways to generate money online but it comes down to understanding how the Internett works and the traffic sources that are involved. Now to make money fast and those figures that the gurus show you ( I mean Iv made money fast before with free methods but its NOT consistant money) you are gong to have to spend a couple of bucks and leverage off of somebody else already getting the traffic and even then you might not make money right away because what is invovled is going back to your campaigns and making adjustment to get a better CTR or ROI. It does not happen on the first try, at least for me it does not.

First things first.... Develope a plan on how you want to make money online. If you want to create a website around a certain niche and sell affiliate products or maybe your own or some PLR then you need to sit down and without the computer write down a plan of action with steps you are gong to do everyday and then keep the disaplin and do it. Then after three weeks or a month then stand back and take a loook at what you have been dong and if you are meeting your goals and make adjustments if need be. Key: be consistant and stick to what the proffesionals are doing and do not try to reinvent the wheel or create a shortcut because it won't work. I am gong to say though that you need to learn how to "look outside the box" to make proper adjustments.

Have a great day,

    I agree with the above poster. While I'm not involved in the particular program his is talking about, the model of making recurring commissions is important, because it allows you to make a lot more money with a lot less customers.

    It's also important that you have a low ticket front-end item to get people in the door, and then market higher ticket products to them on the backend.

    You are definitely right that we need a proper plan.
    what I normally do is spend sunday nights planning the week ahead
    on what needs to be done & what i wanna achieve.
    The worst thing that can happen is when you sit in front of your
    computer & got no idea what needs to be done.

    Making money online is different for everyone. And yet, you still see all kinds of blog posts on that particular bloggers experiences with how they make money. If you have found your niche, then that is perfect! You just have to get it how you can get it. Some people will not be great at affiliate marketing, but will have enough traffic to make good money on infolinks or Adsense. Depends on what you're good at.

    Hello EPoltrack77,

    Clearly, you have developed a mindset that is centered on the life cycle of any business. These are simple words yet we can write volumes of books, all referring to each stage of this life cycle.

    1. Plan.
    2. Action.
    3. Discipline.
    4. Revisit.
    5. Consistency.

    Yes, good advice. Most of the "get rich quick" methods are seriously lacking in realism. I bought such a product a few years ago, which even had as its title, exactly how much you'd make in so much time, and I was on the forum with 88 others who bought that. I was even used by the product-creator as an example of exactly how to do this method "perfectly". I made exactly the same as everyone else on that forum, exactly ZERO from that method, although I did learn a few things, so I got something for my money and time.

    That kind of experience is common with many IM methods (although a small percentage of the methods out there are really genuine), and the difference between the hype and the reality is rather large!

    Agreed...Once I learned that $2000 courses would not make me rich and that I had to take massive action one one method and one method only, is when I started making real money. You can learn method B,C,D etc AFTER A makes you money.
