Hey guys, I've been lurking around the forum, read a lot of information ... and now I think my brain overwhelmed ... I'm lost ... I don't know where to start ....
So far, I've made a few bucks with fiverr and adsense ... I registered with amazon, but haven't made any sales.

How did you started your IM career? I know I should probably look into a micro niche, but I honestly don't know where to start ...
Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Stick with one thing until you master it.

    Sounds like you already had a bit of success with fiverr and adsense. Why not stick with it and scale it up?

    I started with Amazon.

      3 months, only 20 to 30 visits per day, and you made $93 with AdSense!??

      Sounds like you should be the one teaching us... :p

    Most IM training teaches some form of the following, and in this order:

    Choose a Niche - #1 Important Thing - Find where the fish are
    Pick a Product - #2 Important Thing - Find what the fish are feeding on
    Set up a Site
    Use an Autoresponder
    Copy Writing - Very important
    Drive Free Traffic - It can be done easily
    Track and Capture Leads

    This is the basic formula for success, but there is a lot to each of those steps. I've been making a full time living online for 6 years...and it took me 1.5 years to begin to make a meaningful income. The fact that you have stuck with it this long is a good testimony to you, most quit after 3 months or so...a full 98% do.

    Heck, I quit 3 times! But, now I'm comfortable, debt free and loving it. I'm no millionaire, but I've made more online then I did at my day job, and I was a senior manager for a large multi-national corporation!

    Good luck, keep trying, you'll get there to some degree, what degree of success you find is up to you.

    Is it better to pick Physical products or Digital products?

      Each have its own adv...but if you are talking about online business...digital products would be a better choice as it allows you to work from almost anywhere as long as you have internet..you will not have to worried about shipping etc as your products is send over the internet...

    depend on what you are interested

    you said you were making money with adsense, why not scale it up?

  • Fastest way...

    1. find a coach

    slower way..

    2. pick a PROFITABLE niche (one that you see others making a killing)

    3. pick a business model (information marketing, affiliate marketing, etc.) and master that..

    4. keep learning (the information that overlaps is relevant)

    But it will take a while if your starting from scratch unless you have a coach to tell you 'yes/no' when moving from step to step (especially big steps) this could save you years...

      I HIGLY recommend you to look for a particular coach and follow the lead.

      This will really eliminate allot of confusion and help you succeed.

      Thanks

    hi Tolyz,

    i noticed you mentioned you are making money from Adsense. I guess that is what you are currently good at and it has been profitable from you. Since you have an edge in Adsense, why not continue expanding your knowledge on it while earning some small bucks?

    There are just so many things you can do online, we may be good in all, but for sure we can specialise in one! Adsense is what you are good at!

    You could actually even write a quick report, explaining what you did, how to set up the site and how you made that money and you could even sell it and make a few quick bucks. Others out there who have less experience and knowledge than you could find it very useful.

    Well, I can't really afford to pay for a coach at the moment. I guess, I really need to focus on picking a niche ... any advice?

      All my niche sites promote amazon products. I pick my niches by what interests me, whats selling (check out Amazon Bestselling Lists), number of positive reviews, search traffic and competition. Choosing products to promote that I like or would use myself helps keep my motivation up.

    Just keep plugging away. $30/day is a fair bit of cash for starting out, but it's definitely doable. You just need to scale up your operations. Start outsourcing your backlinking and focus on building content.

    Well the work begins ... I'm not sure why my other thread got deleted? I guess personal journals are not allowed here?
    I picked a niche which is RestaurantsInWeber.com (weber is a fake city). 9900 monthly exact searches ....
    Now, why I went with this niche? Local restaurants spent $0 on advertising ... ( no I'm not joking ), so what I'm trying to create is a web site where people will be able to submit their restaurant, write reviews, look for specials ...
    For now, it'll be free to submit a restaurant untill I get the ball rolling.
    So far, I finished with the script / design ... Now looking to get to #1 page in google for "Restaurants in Weber" . Shouldn't be that hard.

    Many people start as an affiliate and then experiment and eventually latch on to something they like and which can make them decent money. It is easy to get an affiliate account from Amazon or Clickbank. They both have good resources for helping you to build a site to promote the link and then learn how to drive traffic to it. Some people have done very well with this strategy. In any case it's important to try something and stick with it. You can always change direction down the road.

    Keep doing what you're doing with Fiverr and Adsense to make some investment money- offering services works well too.

    Then invest in a SEO company or backlinking software/services with the investment money.

    That should help get your site to the top of Google if they're used correctly.
