Me and my brother decided to start internet marketing. We need advices.

11 replies
Hello folks. Me(24) and my brother(22) are college students who live together and have all the time in the world. We decided to spent that time productive and since we love being online, we decided to do start internet marketing. But we need your help, even though we have all the confidance and desire, we don't know how to begin. We are pretty sure we will be succeded after we learn the basics and eventually begin.

Here the questions we have;

1. We live in Turkey(which has 80 million population and internet marketing is growing every day, and less competitors, but i believe less affiliate programs aswell). Should we choose our niche by local or global?
2. After we choose our niche, what is the next step? I know this one requires VERY LONG answer, so it is O.K. if you send guides or links.
3. Which tools or websites are we going to need? (How to handle traffic, and other stuff that I don't know yet)
4. How to build website? Should I hire a webdesigner or use wordpress?
5. We want to do it hardcore. We want to earn serious money, so, should we do 1 niche(each or together) or multiple, maybe more? (I want to mention again, we have a lot of time)
6. Is internet marketing only affiliate programs? Is there more than that?
7. This question is for setting our goal: When will we start earning 100$(50$ each) in a day?

Thanks in advance, have a great day, and I am sorry for my poor English.

Edit: I forget to mention. We have 500$ to spend on internet marketing. Is it enough? Or is it necessary?

    Hey bud, welcome to the forum.
    I highly suggest you read The Millionaire Fastlane by MJ Demarco.
    It will answer every question you have and most likely spur new ideas as well.

    You should start learning about domain,hosting and Wordpress so you can setup your first site and there are a lot of tutorials on that. No, there is not just affiliate marketing in the IM World. You will learn slowly but take action soon.

    Welcome to the forum. First, I think it's great you and your brother are going to work together. If you keep each other accountable, you can both stay more productive. My belief is taking action is the most critical ingredient whenever someone is doing internet marketing. I say find a good reputable guide, mentor, coach or whatever and then be an action taker.

    Good luck!

    $500 is absolutely enough to start with PPC and build solid campaigns. If you find products with high payouts, you can start making profits in the first month. Try with lead generation.

    1. Global is better


    2. Finding buyers in forums and blogs, and understanding what they are buying, so that you may look for the products they are already buying and promote the same products or similar products.


    3. You need Google Analytics which is a free tool, I also use Statcounter, another free tool that helps you see how many visitors your website had, from where they came, etc.


    4. If you don't know how to create a professional website you need the help of someone who does. There is a section in this forum with Warriors for Hire, they may help you.


    5. Begin with one niche. Don't try to do many things at the same time.

    Before spending your money on whatever, study many posts in this forum until you will learn how to prepare a smart business plan.

    A good investment is to become a War Room member. You will be able to read many WSOs for free and learn a lot more.

    I believe that it would be better for you to start by using free platforms for learning and testing instead of creating a website or blog from the beginning. Create Squidoo lenses, Zujava leafs, and Hub pages to learn how to market your products online.

    Later you will use these pages to drive traffic to your website. Don't create too many of them because you can lose your work since they don't belong to you, but use them to learn how the internet works into practice before spending your money and building a website.

    Hello my friend a special greeting for you and your brother and all the friends ..

    In the beginning you can learn more and more and read a lot of books about internet marketing in order to be able to start not experience many problems and begin to reap profits

    come to the questions ..

    1 - you can work in any niche whatever locally or globally the most important thing a good analysis and competitive analysis

    2 - After you select the appropriate niche you can start work by more than way first you can create a blog about the niche Second you can make squeeze page for collect the subscribers and build a mail list then you can send them products or offers about same niche

    You can search in Google you 'll find a lot of useful results

    3 - just need to template for a blog that you want to build a blog (you can get a lot of them through Google search with the word " blogger templates " or an HTML page that you want to build a squeeze page " You can find a lot of them through Google search by searching the word " squeeze page templates " , you can get traffic through forums and blogs and writing articles in article directories and Facebook and YouTube as free waus and you can work with Google Adwards campaigns or Facebook ads as paid ways

    4 - you can build a Website with ease do not need any skills, you can use Blogger or WordPress are both simple and only professional all you have to select the template and upload it

    5 - Do not you care about the number of niches that will do them the most important thing that you build a strong foundation to build distinctive and professional project and will thus achieving your huge profits

    6 - simply e - marketing has only three branches .. CPA - CBS - CBC

    CPA = Cost Per Action like .. Peerfly or Maxbounty

    CBS = Cost Per Sell like .. clickbank or amazon

    CBC = Cost Per Click like .. Google adsense


    7 - if you will building a strong foundation for the projectyou well make huge profits


    Since you $ 500 I advise you to Advertising through pay per view because it is the best and cheapest ways ( but for the ads for squeeze page to collect subscribers or CPA offers )


    I hope that my answer useful to you

    Very sorry if there is any mistakes

    My brother and I started with some banners and simple pages in 90's. Today we own MaxBounty.

    How you start doesn't matter nearly as much as just starting. Your learning curve will eventually point you in the right direction.
