    Hello Antoine,

    I would suggest reading through this forum...it is full of useful information. Also make sure that you ask questions. If there is something you don't fully understand, ASK.

    I also recommend checking out the WSO section. I don't think you should buy everyone that you see but look around, check out reviews and then buy one that looks like its a good fit for you.

    Good luck,
    Patrick

    Hi. Perhaps the most common and most profitable ways to make money online for those looking to give this a go is by creating a blog that focuses on a particular theme like dating, weight loss, fashion, learn guitar, gardening...(list goes on and on) and to write product reviews and articles on related information within the niche you choose. This method has been around for ages and has become standard, which is why all those that make substantial money online use it.

    It provides a number of benefits like being able to generate passive income from the search engines, allows you to generate multiple streams of income from the same blog by doing things like e-mail marketing and so on, allows you to work around your own schedule, and make money by writing about things you enjoy. Once you get your blog up and running and making money, you might also choose to sell it for cash. They gain equity as they age and can be sold for 10 to 12 times what they make in monthly earnings.

    During this time of year, people are promoting things for the holiday season and preparing for the upcoming new year because there is less competition the earlier you get going. For example, tons of people make new year's resolutions to lose weight during the holidays and to quit smoking, so naturally, there are gonna be a number of new product coming out. It's all about finding a niche you like and gaining the knowledge and skills to make the most of them.

    Good luck,
    Joey

    Welcome to the world of internet marketing. As was mentioned previously, definitely spend a good amount of time in this forum and checking out some of the good WSOs. There are also tons of great blogs out there that provide free information on a regular basis.

    After you get a general knowledge of IM, you kind of need to pick an area to focus on (such as creating websites, blogging, social media, etc). Once you decide this, you can start looking for blogs, forums, and WSO specific to this area.

    Hi there!

    Internet marketing is a real business just like any other and wil require time and patience, it's always a good idea to first start with reasearch, learn as much as possible from what others are doing and for that purpose this forum is priceless.

    After gaining knowledge on your particular topic, niche ,sub-niche that you like or have a skill set for you have to focus on that, so that over time you become the expert in that field and people or potential customers continue coming back to you for your info or your products.

    Learn as much as possible, than implement, than repeat, your time and dedication will ultimately determine your success.

    Happy Marketing!

    I think a niche or product based blog (eg. like an Amazon site) is a good place to start.

    My advice is to learn as you go, accept that what you start out with is unlikely to pave the streets with gold but part of the learning process. Not to set you sights unrealistically (like making thousands per month with a blog) just be happy to make a sale a month, then scale.

    I've just been reading about an affiliate who churns out 2-5 sites per week and is happy if he makes a sale per-month. I think that's a good mindset to have.

        What types of roadblocks have you run into? What are you doing, PPC, PPV for advertising?
        Are you promoting clickbank, amazon, CPA?
        Provide as many details as you can and maybe I can fill you in on some empty spaces.
        I also have a website which has some very useful tips, tutorials and techniques, especially for those just starting out. Being as I am new to this forum I can put the link in here but i can pm if you want. Jus pm me and ask for it.
        Have a nice day

    Firstly learn to use wordpress, learn how to configure it, how to seo it, how to use it, how to secure it. Dont expect to earn thousands overnight. Learn from your mistakes.

    Welcome to internet marketing mate.

    The key here is to commit yourself to succeed! Do whatever it takes to reach your goal. Don't just try, DO IT.

    Another tip that I can give you is check out Google Sniper2 by George Brown. It's a great resource for a newbie, no fluff and straight to the point methods.
