    Search the forum. There's tons of good info here. Might be harsh, but if you are already asking people for advice when you just joined a forum that has soooo much information to get you started, I'm not really sure if you start the right way. People aren't going to hand you a get rich quick guide on a silver platter.

    A few tips from me to get your mind straight:
    * Don't focus on making money as fast as possible. Keep it in mind, but especially on a short term focus on learning rather than making money. It's a job just like any other, and you have to get good at it, otherwise everyone here would be a millionaire.

    * Focus on providing quality to the customer. Provide something which helps the customer in one way or another, and it will help you feel comfortable with what you do, and you will have a sustainable way of making money.

    * Think of something that yóu like, and in which you can do better than others. Don't bother with things that you don't know anything about, and especially stay away from the Making Money Online niche if you don't know how to make money online.

    Just read through the forums, there's so much good information coming through each and every day. But learn to filter out the things based on some of the points I mentioned. Those are my 2 cents. There should literally be an auto response to topics like these, since they show up every day, it's pretty tiring. Put in some work yourself before asking others.

    I was going to write a long response but realized I could boil it down to one
    sentence:

    Pick one method, that has already proven to work in the past, and that
    appeals to your skill-set, and then keep doing it until you make money.


    Good Luck,
    Warrior X.

    You're in the right place Chris. What do you enjoy doing? What do you know about? Why not write about eBay stores, if you were successful?

      Fake it until you make it (One day, One day.) It will be reality.

    My only advice is for you to quickly figure out your niche and stick to it. This forum has so much information that you can easily spend months if not years going through without doing any REAL work.

    It takes time and dedication to make money. If you don't have both, don't waste your time.

    It is actually pretty easy to make $400 a week in passive income. Look into membership type websites, with the right idea you can pass that goal by a few more digits

        This means having a content based website where people pay a monthly fee to be a member and access your content.

        To do this you need lots of valuable, fresh content to keep people coming back. If you can do this though it is a really good way to build up a recurring income stream.

        There are several good plugins for wordpress that add this member functionality, you just have to make the content in a good niche.

      It's hard to know where to start within such a big forum, and the net in general. If you know what keywords to search for, you'll be well on your way. So to speed up your journey I would suggest searching this forum for:

      "How to promote clickbank products"
      "How to earn money with adsense"
      "CPA marketing"

      Choose a niche, buy a domain, learn wordpress to build a site and monetize your site with products and ads. Drive customers AKA traffic to your site with youtube videos and articles uploaded to sites like ezine.

      If you have money to invest, all of the above can be outsourced on sites like odesk. You could then grow much faster Also, consider investing in coaching from someone with good reviews here.

      Although membership sites will make you lots of cash, they are far from passive. Even with software subscription services you'll receive numerous support emails.

      Hope it helps, and do let me know how you get on...

      First, I would suggest joining the war room here and going over some of the free info in that thread.

      Since you say you've made money with ebay stores, you can start with that subject.

      -it's something you know about
      -it makes money
      -it doesn't require research (because you've made money at it)

      You can make it a wso, a clickbank product, a lead product to build a list, etc., etc.

      Do some war room research on creating your own product, setting up a sales funnel, etc., and I'm sure you'll get plenty of ideas.

      And hopefully, you'll make more than $400 per week, God Willing.

    If you offer a service and you manage to find a few good clients it is not that difficult to make 400$ a day. Passive income is a different story - it will take quite sometime to set up a system that generates that much each week. You really just need to pick a niche and start working - learn from experience.

    first things first, read other threads. so many threads about this already. but i'll give you one advice. Sell Stock Photography. The Internet has caused an explosion in the demand for stock photography. As the number of media and commercial outlets has increased dramatically with the growth of online media there’s an enormous need for high quality stock photos.

    Not hard if you go put in a few job applications. Make sure you have a way to support yourself before you jump head first into internet marketing. I.M has a big learning curve, and last thing you want to do is kicked out of house and home while chasing your dream.

    Spend one hour at least a day getting pearls of advice form the forum. In time you’ll know which advice and whose advice to take or not.

    Focus your efforts on building an email list. Paramount.

    Technically one, if following the correct advice, can start as a newbie from scratch and make what you’re trying to make in 2 months. Let’s see if it’s you.
