First thing a Newbie should try? (Advice needed)

Thanks for all the replies, and I will looking into all the suggestions I understand everyone is good at something different, so there's no perfect program for anyone.

As for me I own a couple (actually to many , spent the money I had on domains thinking I could easily resell them) domains and like creating website, so I will looking into creating niche sites and selling affiliate products.

Thanks a lot, I signed up for the 30 day challenge and so far I'm really impressed

that's actually the website of mike cowles...he does a wonderful job of showing newbies how to generate their first income online. He goes from creating and setting up your own websites to driving traffic to it. Very helpful !

Thanks heaps. Just signed up on the 30 day challenge. I'll keep you updated as I go.

Cheers.

I did the 30 Day Challenge last year and it really is good. Ed and Dan really know their stuff and they really give you an excellent beginner education for free. There are some pitches for some high priced stuff, but you certainly do NOT have to buy anything to have success with their program. Follow their steps to a tee and you will make money. And more importantly, you will gain alot of knowledge that will help you get going in other directons on your own.

Hi Mrt,

You came to the right place. I am also new here around a month or so. Here I can guarantee you that you will find answers and learn how to do step by step online.

One point i like to share is, do not rush to make money...take time but do it every day. As our friend here said

1. Find a niche
2. Good keyword research within your niche
3. Set up a websites around your keywords.
4. Backlinks, Backlinks, Backlinks
5. Write keyword rich articles and submit them to directories like ezinearticles.

Do this Mr.Mrt everyday and i am sure you will be one of the top people online. My wishes to you in your pursue to success.

@margotoliver...FYI I clicked on your sig file link for info on Keyword Elite 2.0 and attempted to sign up for more info but got this instead:

Start with affiliate marketing, direct traffic with article marketing to your site, or blog, and set up affiliate links and sell them.

Hi mrt209,

First of all know your outcome!

Before you even start with any method or product, know exactly what you actually want to achieve. How much money do you want to make doing online marketing. Be very specific, what is the exact amount of money that you want to be making in 1 month from now, in 6 months from now and in one year from now.

More importantly, what do you want to get for that money. Money by itself won't do you any good. Makes no sense to have 100k in your Paypal account if you don't do anything with it. So what is the exact lifestyle that you want to have being financially free. What car do you want to drive, when do you want to get up, what house do you want to live in, how many hours do you want to work, where do you want to live, where do you want to travel to and how often.

Be very specific and get a clear picture of what you actually want and how much it would cost you. Clarity is power. Once you actually know what you want, you know what you will be working for and you hopefully will be driven to take massive action consistently.

Secondly, take massive action.

Once you know what you want, it's time to take MASSIVE action. Before you even start your computer, make sure that you know what task you want to get done in the time being online. Write two to three tasks down and work on them for 90-120 minutes and then take a break and so something that has nothing to do with Internet Marketing. Go for a walk, spend time with your family, work out etc.

Also make sure that you close your email account and instant messengers and turn off your cell phone. Be focused and try not to get distracted, don't even be connected to the internet if possible.

If you are starting out with Internet Marketing, you might want to start with Affiliate Marketing. It's an easy way to get started because you don't have to create your own product right from the start and you don't have to know how to set up the payment processor, how to write copy, how to deliver the product and so forth.

A great place to learn how to do it the right way is the Thirdydaychallenge.com and you should also check out Chris Farrel's Membership site. Both of them do an outstanding job teaching you the basics the right way.

Once you are done with that, you should sign up for the Thirty Day Challenge Plus. Here you will understand that the real money is in product creation. Look at all the super successful Internet Marketers, they all have their own products and there is a reason for that.

Eventually you don't want to be the one writing articles, creating squidoo lenses, doing keyword research, spying on competitors, learning about all the Google changes and so forth, you want to be on the other side. You want to have a product online that is getting promoted by your affiliates.

Affiliates will do all the hard work and they will get your traffic and customers and they will spend all the time doing all these tedious tasks I just talked about.

Creating your own (great) product takes more time and more skills but it's well worth it. Start with Affiliate Marketing and once you got that down and you mastered the basics, get into product creation!

Model Successful People

Taking action alone isn't enough. If you take action on the wrong things it can take you forever to succeed.

Make sure that you first look for people that already achieved what you want to achieve. Look for marketers that are super successful and then try to model them and try to find out how they run their business, try to find out what drives them and how they got to where they are now.

Try to pick the best marketers out there, don't settle for less. Do your research, find out who's really kicking butt out there and then follow them.

If you have the money, get a mentor. He can hold you accountable and if he's good at what he's doing he can help you succeed much faster. He can provide you with his experience and tell you what's really working and more importantly prevent you from doing beginner mistakes.

There you have it, that's my advice if you're just starting out.

Know your outcome, take massive action and model the best.

Cheers,
Mario

I agree that you will have an easier time staying on track of you choose a niche that you are interested or even better passionate about. Just keep in mind that you want to make money after all, so make sure that it's a mega niche like gaming, health, make money, biz op, fitness and so forth.

Go where the money is.

Cheers,
Mario

I do not think it's wise to recommend a product which COSTS MONEY to new members, or those who are new to internet marketing in the first place. That is the WRONG kind of way for them to start off, and many do not even have the means to purchase a product to begin with.
