Newbie's Shortcut to $1,000 Monthly Income

19 replies
This short guide is not about the so-called elusive secret recipe that fetches you money within 24 hours of buying an ebook or software without computer knowledge. No! You have to work hard, work smart, and be willing to learn. This is just the moral aspect of truly making passive income on the internet.

I have long found out that making money online is about creating value for people when you offer solutions to their specific problems or needs and/or satisfy their desires. And because you are not the only player in the field of money making, you have to offer your product or service from a unique angle that keeps you ahead of the competition.

First, as a newbie you need focus, business plan, consistency, determination and so forth. It is really disheartening that newbies run from one program to another in order to make money. They dissipate their time, energy and possibly money seeking for almighty get-rich-quick schemes. They forget that the longer you stay on a business model the better your understanding of it.

All the common online business models still work, viz: affiliate marketing, CPA offers, websites flipping, contextual advertising, selling services like article writing, to mention a few.

Whether you "follow your passion" or "follow the money", you need to put in an above-average effort when promoting your website in order to see measurable results. Strictly speaking, there is no magic bullet about making money online. Here are the ground rules:

Register a domain name in your chosen niche market.
Get web hosting account.
Build website or blog on your domain name.
Write articles consistently and upload to your website or blog. But the articles must provide added value to your website visitors' knowledge base.
Publish more articles on article directories, post in niche forums, make blog comments, and so on.
Test, track and revise your activities with tracking software. There are free tracking scripts around.

While the above is what every internet entrepreneur does, the way and manner each of us presents his website, product, service or information is what distinguishes the gurus from the ordinary.

Now, making $34 daily will earn you $1,000 in a month. You can easily achieve this if you promote affiliate products with content laden website which is appropriately monetized with affiliate links. Selling 2 products a day which pay commission of $20 will make you $1,200 monthly but certainly not on a platter of gold.

This is what I think you should do. First register a domain name and create web hosting account. The cost should average $20 in your first month. Find tutorials on how to install Wordpress blog on your domain name via hosting Fantastico software. It is simple.

Next, start writing and publishing articles on your blog and article directories. The fastest way to learn is to study the best webmasters and internet marketers in your niche. Follow their system and evolve your unique system from there.

If I say start generating constant traffic by all legal means, it is not an exaggeration; although you must master one source of getting web visitors like the back of your palm. This is where majority of us miss the point. When I was starting out online I thought content was enough to make me money. I realized this is not entirely true and I quickly revised my strategy. You need traffic.

The secret about making $1,000 is NOT a secret at all. The truth is that what make you money is constant content and promotion. If you like writing articles, by all means do it consistently. If it is blogging, do it daily. So should it be with every other method that is best for you.

In summary, pick a business model that best suits you. Learn all you can in that niche market. Build website to provide unique information to your website visitors. Stay long enough to understand the business inside out. Have a voice in the niche and make yourself cool cash.

For instance, if you love writing articles then study the likes of Steven Wegenheim on this forum. If you like blogging borrow a leaf from well known bloggers like Yaro Starak, Pat Flynn, just to mention a few. When you start getting results scale it up. That is it!

Always remember that there is no magic bullet. If you put in the necessary effort, time and money, you will start making money to your heart's desire in record time. Work it and you will make it.

To your internet business success on a platter of hard and smart work!

    The most important thing with any system is that you have to put in the work and keep at it day in and day out to see results.

    People are always quick to jump on the latest new way to make money online. All you have to do is set up a plan/system you can easily do and follow each and every day and just DO IT!!!!

    A lot of people get "paralysis of analysis" or information overload from jumping around from one "next big thing" to another.
    As said above, what needs to be done is find one thing that you think will work for you and completely focus on that to build the foundation you need.

    Yes, the math is simple, but it's definitely easier said than done!

    Good tips the most important part of any online business in my opinion is actually putting in the initial legwork you need targeted traffic to make money period!

    You should start an online business in something that you are passionate about it will be easier for you to succeed in the long run.

    Learn, Learn, Learn, and Work, Work, Work, and have fun but remember its a business treat it as such if you want to make a lot of money with it down the road.

    If you treat it like a hobby that is what you will get out of it play money. If you treat it like a business the sky is the limit!

      If a newbie is reading this as a guide to $1,000/month, then yes the plan is a good place to start from.

      However, I would add from my point of view, that you should drive your targeted traffic to a squeeze page, which is offering something of value.

      The saying that the money is in the list, is partially true. You will get money from your list if you build a relationship with those on your list.

      This is well ellaborated strategy. Problem is that newbies read it and forget quickly... and there aftrer they run behind every offer! Most of the internet marketers had gone through this stage. Those who stick with there plan they becomes great internet marketers, other leave it sadly.

    Well said Ed!

    Focusing on just ONE system and working it like a madman is the KEY to success with this Internet marketing thing!

    Too many of us get distracted with the next shiny object or give up too easily before we even allow our method/system to work its magic.

    I've come to learn and realize that this is the biggest mistake frustrated newbies and those unsuccessful online make over and over and over.

    Focusing on one system and working it furiously is the key to making money online.

    In the beginning it's all about HUSTLE. Like you said, "There is no magic bullet. If you put in the necessary effort, time and money, you will start making money to your heart’s desire in record time. Work it and you will make it."

    Now my fellow warriors, let's GET TO WORK!

    Great guide. I think it would also be worth mentioning Social Media - great way to advertise your blog (twitter etc) and you can even set your twitter up so it automatically tweets when you write a new blog post!

      That's very true. If you try too many different internet marketing methods, you are not likely to be very successful. You need to have dedication despite failure and other people's opinions.

      Keep in mind that "easy" for one person is not always "easy" for another...

      I can easily write articles that get a lot of publication in large mailing lists... But can you?

      I can easily write ebooks that get tons of positive testimonials... But can you?

      I can easily make fun of my wife... But can you?


      Your experiences in life are different from mine, so therefore, what is easy for you may not be easy for me...

      And vice versa... What is easy for me may not be easy for you...

      As the great Einstein said, "It is all relative..."

      I have followed Pat Flynn and like his blog. I'm not if I could share that much information about the income so openly but to each his own.

      Thanks for breaking down the income goal, it makes it look achievable.
