I just made my first sale ever online in just two weeks!

120 replies
Hello everyone

Blimey what an exciting bit of news,I have only just put a thread up the other day asking the question will I ever make money online.

Well my question has been answered because as of today I am $13 richer,yep you heard me $13.06 richer Yesssssss!!!!!!

All I did was copy someone elses Niche,and made a simple wordpress blog which I also copied I have submited one article to Ezinearticles and just less than two weeks later I have a clickbank sale.

So now Imagine if I can get ten Niches together,find ten good clickbank products submit more articles and other ways to drive traffic to them I could make $100 a week just with one sale from each site.

I have proved to myself that this does work of course I have no money in my hand as of yet but I have a sale and I am very excited and I hope this is just the start.

Could not have done it without the Warrior forum either so thanks everyone.

cheers

Marcus

    Excellent job, Marcus. Making one sale from your first article is great! (It is possible to make money online! lol)

    It took me about a month and a half of seriously trying to figure out how to write a decent article that leads into my link before I made any sales. And the ball just started rolling last week. So far I've made just over $200 in clickbank sales in the last week and a half. Doesn't it feel really good to bring up that clickbank page, login, and see that dollar amount? What's great is I made one sale yesterday while I was at my JOB, then I took my daughter to the movies and I made another sale while I was there!

    How cool is that?

    Good Luck!

    Congratulations Marcus,

    Do not underestimate what you have achieved, for many people who 'fail' at IM do so not because of a lack of knowledge or resources, they simply failed to take any action, preferring TV or some other distraction.

    Well done mate.

      Thought someone would come up with my join date.When I say in two weeks that means two weeks since I made the simple blog that made the $13.06.

      I have been floating about for 8 years never really understanding how to make money,and I have been a member on here since 2006 but was never really active.

      But now I have and I hope it will be onwards and upwards.

      Marcus,

      You're an inspiration to all of us. I remember the feeling the first time i logged my clickbank account and rather than seeing a $0.00 which is what I ALWAYS saw, I saw $31.85, it was the best feeling ever. I guess everyone's first sale, no matter how big or small it is will make a huge difference, because it will prove that making money online is actually possible.

      Keep up the good work Marcus, your story is inspiring everyone. I am new to this myself and WF has helped me IMMENSLEY. I think you're definately going in the right direction, think volumes!

      1 article can get me 1 sale in 2 weeks
      2 articles will get you x sales...
      3 articles... and so on.

      Then look at different products...

      Soon you may need to start outsourcing because you are so successful!

      Well done buddy, keep it up!

      I am following Jeremys bootcamp just followed one of his Niches and keywords then copied content given to me as an affiliate for the product.Then I wrote my own content for my article,I was just trying to find out if I would ever make money so followed Jeremy as close as I could.
      You dont have to think of me as an inspiration I am just a normal guy wanting to make a living online and help others to.I also want to prove to people that if I can make money anyone can.

    Thanks for posting this story. I have been feeling a bit hopeless lately but this has reminded me that the first step is always the smallest and we need to keep going to get anywhere. I made $13.10 last month and was ecstatic but have since lost that spark.

    Yeah! Gotta agree with hotlinkz on this one.

    Keep documentation of your progress so that you can share your success in your own product a bit further down the track.

    Keep watching this forum for ideas and traffic suggestions.

    Try NOT to get side tracked on other projects. Stay focused on your own goals.

    There is soooooooooooooooo much info around now on how to get started.

    There was not that amount of information a few years ago, when everything was a lot more expensive.

    It's encourging to see people have minor success. Your first sale is always one to remember.

    I think it took me two YEARS...or more...

    Keep it up!

    I will look for your name when you get to be the next guru

      cheers

      Congrats Marcus!

      Also, what is your conversion rate at, if you don't mind. Im just trying to decide if I need to drop my current niche in search of a new one because I am not converting as well as you. Im at about 3 weeks with no sales in my niche.
      Hi


      My sales were through my article and I have had 588 article views with 270 url clicks.Not sure how to work out conversion rate as I am new to Ezinearticles.

      cheers

    The worst part of your first sale, is that you will get totally hooked, and then you will be spending every wakening moment checking emails, buying additional domains, building your list, promoting, driving traffic, finding affiliate programs, building your own stuff....and every now and then you may eat and if theres time, sleep....
    Congrats on the sales

      Congratulations Marcus - thats fantastic. I would strongly suggest that you stay away from "easy" suggestions like above and follow someone like Jeremy. Too many of us get distracted by the next bright shiny thing online.

      Focus and determination will get you there. I am sure that Jeremy will teach you as many traffic skills as you need.

      I dont know if you have done it already but it is worth setting your payout on clickbank to fairly low level as it takes an age for cheques to get to us in the UK and you need to have three cheque payments before you move to direct deposit. Just something to bear in mind!

      By the way, 580 article views with 270 url clicks sounds excellent to me on your first article.

      Well done - here is to many more sales.

      Take care

    Hi everyone

    Well this has been a pretty active thread,

    So let me tell you my position so far.

    My Ezinearticle is now hardly getting any views but I have a new article ready to roll just in the final stages of approval.

    I have outsourced and had a further five articles written for me nearly ready to submit.

    And I am just putting my site details on some high ranking websites so hoping to start building up some quality backlinks,and also in the meantime trying to learn about other traffic methods.

    Trying not to overstretch myself but with work, overtime, and a new baby on the way any second now the time I have to spend on this is getting limited.

    But one thing I have done is decided to take action and I will make it work for us.

    cheers

        I certainly will I just hope it keeps going I know $49 is bugger all but it just proves it works.
        Next I hope to earn a regular income.

        Just remember all you gotta do is take action.

    Fabulous post Marcus - brings back memories.

    i'll never forget my first sale... it's burned into my brain - almost (but not quite) like my first kiss. It was $2.00. i sold an eBook i wrote about "Playing Go Online" (Go is a strategy Game). It was the only copy i ever sold of that product lol. Took at least 50 hours to write too so i made $0.04 per hour. but so what? i was so happy.

    Get some more products moving Marcus, and good luck!

      Blimey my thread has come back.

      Well so far I have made $93 but had a refund so that is $79 in total now and I made a total of five sales. I wrote a further four articles for the particular product and created a small network of sites linked to my money page, but got no more sales and not many views.
      I think I chose a saturated market, plus I used some very competitive keywords it was just a test really to see if this really worked.


      I am following Jeremy and Don's cpa bootcamp at the moment, not got very far but the cpa companies have high converting offers which I have started promoting.
      I have just created a money page for a cpa offer and am building some web 2.0 sites around it, all linked together and then all linked back to the money page.


      I just need to keep picking decent products,picking out keywords, writing articles about it,then setting up a network of sites all linked together around my main money page.Then I submit all my sites to the popular bookmarking sites and rss sites,I am just hoping I can pick out ten decent products and make a couple of sales a day.

      Not got much done at the moment just had a little baby boy and he is a real handful.I have lost a little bit of confidence and belief at the moment but hey thats what I originally started this thread for,just to show other people starting out that this does work.

      I have met some lovely people on the Warrior forum that have given me a lot of help,thanks Jeremy especially.

      I am not giving up, I must make this work and I hope you guys keep at it to.

      Cheers

    Nice one Marcus,

    I only started this about 6 weeks ago, but I now have my first website up and running, and somebody has actually downloaded my free report, which excited me. I have written an article about my e-book, which I have sent to several article sites today, including ezinearticles.com. Hopefully, that might get more people interested and lead to my first sale. Fingers crossed.

      That is wierd. I could have sworn I posted a congratulation to you. When I came back it was gone. Something funky is going on here ...

      Anyways my original "congratulatory" post was:

      "Don't forget to print out your first sale and frame it so that in a few months from now when you hit your first million, you'll remember this first sale. Congratulations!!!"

    All I did was copy someone elses Niche,and made a simple wordpress blog which I also copied I have submited one article to Ezinearticles and just less than two weeks later I have a clickbank sale.

    So now Imagine if I can get ten Niches together,find ten good clickbank products submit more articles and other ways to drive traffic to them I could make $100 a week just with one sale from each site.

    I have proved to myself that this does work of course I have no money in my hand as of yet but I have a sale and I am very excited and I hope this is just the start.

    Could not have done it without the Warrior forum either so thanks everyone.
