Just thought I would take a moment to introduce myself.

I was a technical instructor before being part of an economic layoff. I am a huge fan of message boards built on the VBulletin platform and own / operate a few of my own.

I have created / purchased some very nice E-Products that I plan to bring to the SWO area in due time. So look for some special deals soon.

I hope to be putting in a lot of time on these forums.

Nice to meet you all

    Hi Travis, welcome to the forum. I would not be doing Adsense sites unless you know the rules well enough. Google can ban you and there is no way back once that happens although some do make money with them.

    Affiliate marketing is the better way to go and this forum will help you a lot to get on your feet. Don't spend a cent until you know what you doing. That's my advice anyway.

    hi. beeing relatively new myself, my advice is this. i have soaked in 4 months of information non stop. i felt that while i fiddled and learned how to do the basics, then i might as well read and learn what everyone has to offer. i did that.
    i do not call mysef a newbie anymore. and while i have yet to earn money it is because i am developing my own product.
    so, my advice..... you are already experienced in life in a few areas. very likely you have also done diplomas etc also. use that information, to write up a high quality report. add a lot of pictures, add a lot of videos. make to product the very best version about that subject online.
    then, register a domain name about that subject, strat getting traffic, build your list, and become THE expert on that subject online. do 100 or so articles on the subject.
    talk about your field of expertise in the forums.
    i feel that if you are going to become active online, it sure is a hell of a lot easier to do it with a subject that you are familiar with.
    it is what i am doing, and i am very close to doing my "launch". what this really means is that it will be ready and available online. then the traffic, and business part starts.
    by the way join twitter, it is one of the more popular new social sites, i have already got 14000 or so followers, and pretty soon they are going to be hearing about my new product.

    good luck.

    Hey Travis,

    For starters, welcome! This forum has been one of my greatest assets both financially, psychologically (lol venting is important), and as a learning resource.

    CPA stuff can work really well. I have some colleagues who point people to 1.50 per action offers (email submits, credit card info submits, etc) with cheap traffic. He is making 600 a day now after about 5 months constantly tweaking. So yes, it can be done.

    Personally, I build lists b/c I love the automation of it. He is teaching me CPA at this time but it's a different ball game to a certain extent.

    Think of internet marketing this way. You need to get to 100 a day by selling 4 $25 dollar products or 2 $50 dollar products (dollar figures refer to affiliate payout not purchase price). You need to focus solely on this at this time.

    So my suggestion would be that by working on a PPC network (like adwords), you could do this relatively quickly (in a few weeks of learning, testing, and tweaking...especially the last 2!!!).

    There are tons of basic keyword tutorials online, adwords has great learning tools, and there are free ebooks on PPC (Brad Callen produces one that I downloaded a few years ago).

    Hopefully this gets you on your journey!!!

    Cheers,

    Brad Spencer

    Hi Travis,

    Welcome to the WF. Just connect your brain to the Internet and do a mental download of the wonderful information here.

    There also is an inexpensive "paid" section to the WF called the War Room - It is only $37 one time, for a twenty year membership. There is soooooo much free info over there it will make your head spin.

    One of the members here, Willie Crawford, has an ebook called "Twenty Ways To Make $100 A Day" (or something to that wording). It's a good start too.

    Have fun.

    Thanks for the welcomes and all the suggestions.

    Brad: I do already have a product site and I am currently awaiting Clickbank to approve it (Blogsrockstar). I did not create the product but rather purchased the site with full rights. He had the price set at $47. However after reading the E-book (don't get me wrong, it had some excellent info) I felt that the product was worth $25 so I have lowered the price. With that said I am shooting for 4 sales a day.

    Don: Thanks for the advice. As more of a message board guy myself I will definately be supporting the site and joining the paid section. Thanks
