I'd like it if you could help me achieve that.

    The most important thing to learn from them (which took me months, when I started ), is which of those posts are reliable and factual, and which are simply propagating the doctrines of the Urban Myth School of Internet Marketing.

    Unfortunately the time when one most needs that judgement, to distinguish between the two, tends to be the time that one has least of it (i.e. right at the start). Don't forget that with the overall success-rate in internet marketing being on the low side, there's perhaps no overwhelming reason to assume that the general consensus of opinion expressed on various subjects is necessarily always going to be an accurate or well-informed one. To put it very bluntly, there can sometimes be well-intended misinformation here, as well as information. I wish you well ... good luck!

    i can see why your a wordsmith, your use of the English language is both informative and very exact .
    I shall keep all of those things in mind when trying to cut myself a slice of this huge cake that is internet marketing.
