Hello, I'm from two months in the future...
And around 90% of Newbies asking questions in this forum will no longer be in the internet marketing game.....Do you know why?
Stop what you are doing, cut out the interruptions and let me tell you why and how you can stop it.
These poor newbies failed, somewhere between over indulging in WSO's, chasing their own tails and hunting for that elusive silver bullet, their dreams were shattered and they gave up...
The saddest thing of all is that it could have so easily been avoided...a little bit of focus....a little bit of guidance....and a little bit of patience would have made all the difference!
So if you are a newbie and that sounds a bit like you.....here is some stuff you can do....
1) Pick a Niche....but pick one that excites you and that you are interested in......and STICK to it! (Make sure there are books/magazines about it on Amazon and products being sold in the niche)
2) Grab a domain and some hosting.....Make the domain brandable (This is the best investment ever!)
3) Install wordpress and pick a theme ANY THEME....(Get the ball rolling....get started....You can change/buy themes later when the $$$ roll in)
4) Start posting content.....write it yourself, be interesting and forget about keyword % etc.
5) Be prolific....Update your blog 3-5 times a week!
6) Look for suitable offers that you could offer to your readers...Clickbank, Offervault, Adsense.....Don't ask what is best.....Just do it.....everyone has different experiences, just get it done!
7) If you can afford it get an Aweber autoresponder........find out what people in your niche are craving for and offer it to them in the form of a bribe to develop a list.
8) Get traffic......THERE IS NO SILVER BULLET.
9) Offer value on niche forums.
10) Join facebook, linkedin, Yahoo and Google groups and offer value.
11) Most importantly.....Treat your list with respect....they are people! Treat them well and they will treat you well, offer them good content and don't hit them with offers every 10 minutes....
Those 11 points are not the whole deal....but it gets you started....get used to taking action first, asking questions later.....
There are no deadly or critical mistakes that you can make......except not doing anything at all!
Hope this helps someone.....
Regards
Chris
