tired of not making money

    All I've ever done was read think or research, but i haven't ever made a dime online (except for freeipods etc).

    I was at work and came up with a niche idea. Now 3 am, I got home and listening to rap music while trying to take action. So far i bought a domain and plan to put a cms in the web and write a quick article for the first page before I go to sleep.

    my goals:
    get my website up and 5 articles/pages by next week
    5 backlinks by next week

    longer term:
    index on google
    get traffic
    make my first dime!

    DO or DIE

    First of all choose your Niche.
    You are saying that you ahve chosen already. Ok! Try to write some of the quality articles say about 500-600 words.
    Try to use spinning software for the purpose of submitting your articles to the different articles directories and giving backlinks to your websites.
    What are your plannings regarading getting traffic for the websites?

    ok so my site is live with a nice template and i wrote a ~150 word article for my home page
    next i have to set up the other pages and ideas for specific articles and keywords to target
    -is it a good idea if i pay someone to write a few articles for me?

    for marketing i guess article directories and places like yahoo answers
    ongoing seo always

    any advice and ideas to take it to the next level before i hit a brick wall?

    Add useful content in your site on regular bases, this alone will help you to make some money from your site. Search engines love new content and they will send lot of traffic.

    If you have some good friends, this is a good time to tell them about your new blog and ask them to link to you. Once you have written your articles remember to submit to very popular high PR sites (e.g. Propeller). All these will help your new blog and get it indexed quickly.

    No offense but it sounds like your starting something out of frustration and that's not the best way to begin.

    Maybe talk to an trusted internet marketer you know, ask them about your niche in confidence and see what they say, sometimes a second opinion can save you time and frustration.

    Listen! Just putting up a domain and a cms website, wont make you a dime at all!
    Pickup a niche (what you are passionate about) and post some quality content. You must also work hard.

    Content is STILL king

    I agree with the others, make sure you write good content that people would want to read and make sure it is unquie. This will help with your ranking with Google.

    You have the right attitude, that is the biggest problem of why people quit online marketing, they NEVER taken action.

    Keep us posted on your progress.

    Instead of starting five sites at once...try starting one or maybe two first.
    Focus on these first and once they get off to a good start, try starting some more sites.
    If you start fives sites at once, it will be hard to give them all proper attention and they will end up failing.

    Hehee, perhaps you should consider forgeting about "making money" and just do something that you'll think people would like? Think of giving something GOOD STUFF for people, and don't mind at all if you don't make a penny?

    Perhaps that could help you find something useful... which you could later turn into profitable thing?

    I know how you feel, I've been doing that for a long time now. For the past few months though I've finally gotten myself to do some work instead of just thinking and researching. Hope you see some success soon, good luck!
