    Hey,

    The benefit is that you do have a little knowledge.
    It does take time to get going mate.

    As Brian Tracey says:

    If your serious about this profession you should have a
    bookshelf with all the top books on business, sales, marketing etc.

    If you went to a doctor and they haven't read or studied anything
    would you trust them?

    Reading will really help you get good. Start with Copywriting.
    it is an essential skill. 2 great books are.
    - How to write a good advertisement.
    - Scientific advertising

    They will really help your current campaigns

    Sound like you just need focus. The good thing is you already have some websites.

    I would say, take the website that is getting the most traffic or just pick one and concentrate on it.

    Add a squeeze page to it to collect names and emails to start building a list.

    If you aren't good at writing then use some free high converting templates and I suggest text only not video.

    There is a lot of free information on the forum so look around for it.

    Good luck.

      Yea I agree here...definitely focus on one main project to start and start building a list of subscribers. IM in the beginning can be discouraging but develop a NO-FAIL attitude and you will be surprised at how much you can accomplish.

      Good suggestion. All IMer's do too many things. There are a lot of cool and fun ways to make money in IM but we get too scattered. Take one site and commit to that until you see profit.

    This is the good Idea , so I create a squeeze page and capture emails and then send offers to them ?

    Should i buy new domain for adding squeeze page Or add in new directory on my existing website ?

    High Ticket Direct Sales?

    Before you begin marketing aimlessly you should know how you want to monetize first
    I want to sell some kind of ready made product where users can pay me directly in my paypal and get there products but the problem is I don't have any product to sell ... I don't like those affiliates where i have to wait 10-15 days in order to get what i have earned

      Not quite ... quite a few very important stages are missing, and they're the ones that typically make the difference between earning a living and not earning a living.

      You create an opt-in page (squeeze page or another kind) and capture emails by incentivizing the opt-in with a perceived-high-value product which reinforces your credibility and trustworthiness and ensures that your subscribers will open and read your emails, and then you send them valuable content by email and get them used to trusting and respecting you as an authority, and build relationships with them, and get them used to clicking on your links, and then you send them offers.

      A different world.

      Seriously - no point at all in "learning copywriting" without first appreciating these basic stages. And to be blunt, "copywriting" is not at all high on the list of desirable attributes for a successful affiliate. The "offers" you eventually send to your subscribers will already have copywritten sales pages, and you should let those do the "selling". An affiliate's job is pre-selling, not selling. Sure, some writing's required, but not "copywriting".

    Build a list! So many of us hear how the money is in the list but don't actually go and build one, but instead go off and look for shiny objects. Then when they don't work, we get disheartened and go back to square one and say 'I wish I had built a list when I first started'. But it's never too late...

    My question to you is what niche do you want to be a master guru in? What are your strengths? Is there a hungry market for the niche you desire to master?

    I ask questions because before we are going to get focused we need to first know what we are going to do long term. Short term you want money and I completely understand that.

    Long term is how all of these Guru's envisioned and used as daily motivation. OFFERING VALUE is how people stand out online. You must gain skills to get visible so people can see your value.

    Traffic generation and copywriting are the skills most people lack. Instead of learning for the next few months and your head bursting why don't you first do alot of thinking about what area you want to enhance people's lifes in.

    If you cannot answer this question than you might need to do some soul searching to find your purpose. Reading books like Think and Grow Rich, will help. Turn off the volume for a second and think where you want to be in 2 years.

    What topic area interests you the most? What can you see yourself happy doing day after day and there being a big audience to speak to? From there you will have found your calling.

    As far as traffic generation its all about strategy. Alexa Smith is a beast at forum marketing where I just recently started again. I like video marketing and seo for my methods.

    If you need any help or need to talk any more just send me a PM. I am not going to try to sell you anything, sometimes talking to a real person can really make a difference.

    In addition to building a list, focus on 1 site and make it great (from which you build your list). The following is a simple blueprint for generating affiliate sales from a blog.

    Publish a review of a product/service you've used, continue to use, and LOVE. Write a phenomenal review of it. Include your dislikes and wishlist items. Demonstrate you know this product inside and out. Include images, a video, compare it to alternatives, and strive to be incredibly informative to anyone considering buying the product or a similar product.

    Research and put together 50 to 100 keywords in the niche related to the product/niche. Buying keywords are best, but go beyond.

    Write and publish 50 to 100 quality posts based on your keyword research. In some posts, WHERE APPROPRIATE, include affiliate links to the product you promote. More often, though, link to your review and/or opt in page. Drive traffic to your review and opt in page as much as possible.

    Build backlinks to your site - the home page, your review, and inner pages.

    Repeat the above until you're generating sales. Tweak your review to see if you can improve conversion.

    Do it again for another product/service.

    Be sure your email sequence has top notch content. You can also link from your emails to your blog posts.

    Learn more, the right way. Start with the area you know best, research the crap out of it until you see just how much you didn't know. When you feel confident with that area, move on to the next. Once you have the major steps figuered out everything will look much cleared and your biz plan will start to emerge. One that can actualy make you some money. Knowledge is the key, without it, you may just going in circles.

    You failed for a reason, IM can be extremely complex if you dont have a solid offer or traffic. Why dont you build a list but I would suggest succeeding with one market/niche/domain
