How did you create an income online?

First... breathe.


The first thing I suggest doing is devoting an hour or two surfing this forum. Look for the topics with the most replies, usually they have a good point to make. I'm not an expert at IM by any extension of the mind. Truth be told I'm as new as you are and I'm just sharing how I began to learn.

There are plenty of free e-books on this site that really can be helpful, you just need to explore a bit. If you want a very basic starting point, then I suggest you look into keywords and Google keyword tool.

That is basic IM, and where I started. I'm sure some of the old timers will swoop in here to provide you with better guidance, and to chastise me for calling them old.

Just take some time to explore this forum.

Its a lot of trial and error a lot of sweat and tears and hair pulling!! But when you make that first pound the feeling is immense I get the same feeling every day I open up my emails I love it it s the best part of the day for me!

Never give up is my advice you only fail when you quit trying

Good luck

"How did you create an income online?"

I worked my arse off, thats how.

Read this forum-excellent advice.

Keep your credit card in your wallet until you have decided on a business model.

Than do that business model to the exclusion of all else, at least until its working well.

Might I suggest bizmodelguru dot com? Liz tomey who discusses different business models.

Here's what I would do starting all over from scratch and with very little money to invest...

1. Pick one or two niches that have "hungry buyers." (health, make money, etc.)

2. Go to Clickbank and pick some of the highest gravity products in each niche to promote.

3. Get a cheap domain somewhere. If you use a coupon you can get one for about $7 somewhere at any given time.

4. Set up a simple redirect from that domain to the sales page of the Clickbank product you want to test first.

5. Write a good article (or 5) and submit to the top article directories. Put a link to your domain that redirects in the resource box.

6. Track the results. How may click-throughs? How many sales?

7. Keep testing until you hit on one or two CB products that convert.

8. Keep sending traffic through your pipeline and cashing CB checks.

Now, that sounds easy, but it takes work. It's just really inexpensive and you can start seeing results pretty quickly. Days instead of weeks. And if it flops, you aren't out a bunch of money to find out, like you would be if you went the PPC route or bought ads somewhere.

When you are a beginner online things can start to feel a little overwhelming especially since there are so many marketers tell you you need this or that. My suggestion is to invest in one course in an area of marketing that you are interested in.

I started with affiliate marketing and would recommend the same. Get one course and focus on doing everything it says to make money. The key is finding something that actually works. I would recommend Commission Blueprint 2.0 or Affilioblueprint.

Pm me if you have any specific questions or I can help in any other way.

Did a lot of note taking here. Lots of awesome advice here.

Smile633,

1. Determine why want an IM business in the first place.
2. Find a business model that gets you most excited about.
3. Break down the business model to its basic components.
4. Build systems for each component (no more than 4 or 5).
5. Take massive action for the next 90 days - do not hesitate - do not procrastinate.

Start your own QUALITY Business , you will look like a PRO. The more income and time invested, the better your return.

I think that you should start with affiliate marketing and know this:

It takes money to make money online. The more you spent in the right places, the more you will make. It is really as simple as that.

All of it! Making money online is all about supply and demand. The more research you do and information you gather you can communicate better with you ideal prospect.

Start off as an affiliate cause its the most easiest and fastest and pick your market and niche and find your product that is proven to sell meaning it has EPC's or earnings per click with low refund rate and incorporate that into your custom sales funnel.

My simple advice is to get a coach who have done what you wanted to do. Pay him his dues and work with him till u get the results...
