    Hi I'm new here. Need your advice on one thing. Is it really possible for an average guy (new to internet marketing) to make $20,000 per month (as often claimed by the gurus) from online biz? How do they do it? Do they really do it by themselves (is it humanly possible) or do they have people helping them promote? Thanks.

    Yes it's possible but certainly not as easy as most ebooks state.

    Yes it is. You need a product that sells and pays good. You also need alot of traffic and that is the hard part. Ebooks telling you can make that much with little work are not true. It takes work alot of work.

    The ebook sales pages tell you it's easy so they can make a sale, they may or may not even be making the money they claim to make.

    Yes It is possible but you first have to build a list ,so first find what you are interested in , find a niche then research it maybe try to get a free or cheap e-book for a give away to help build that list then once you have a list start promoting to it , sounds easy eah but its not and it takes work ,but if you are prepared to work at it things will come your way, if you dont have a website etc etc I can recommend 2 people I have met and used from this forum , these 2 guys are genuine and very helpful , so send me a pm and I will give you the contact details , Hope this helps

    cheers lockie:)

    The net has made many things possible. But its not as easy as many make it out to be, not at all in fact. That is where many sales are made, in the belief and hope.

    What is the most effective way to make money online?

    By sales or Adsense?

    I know many adsense millionaires, but no sale millionaires yet.

    Seems like products will get you money fast but over the long run you hit a plate and that is where adsense can be more profitable

    spend more time building sites and less time asking open questions and you may one day be making $20,000 a month.

    Time management is key.

    You need to research the net, talk on forums like this one, take part, register to a few forums like this, in key areas of the internet, listen, read and learn. Research, research research then you may just think of an idea yourself, if not after all this research you can sell your knowledge, you can be a tool for someone elses idea, by this i mean perhaps your good at web designing, then you design websites for others.

    Will.

    There are a heap of sales millionaires... like Yanik Silver.

    People who created their own products and sell it through affiliates - there is big money to be made from this.

    Totally agree.

    Good Time Management is critical..

    Also, you need a lot of dedication.... I have worked 80 hour weeks sometimes for the past few years building my sites/traffic/Pr

    Add to that a degree of talent and business acumen.....

    and you are well on the way to making some money.

    Start small.....think about making $100 a week to start with...and when you get to that point you will have learned a lot about what works and what doesn't work, and what your chosen specialities and niches are going to be :D

    Yes, of course it is.

    We spend half that amount on affiliate advertising alone.

    Yeah perfectly possible, just need a good idea and some determination. I have worked for people that make that kind of money in about 2/3 days.
