how to make money online

    The problem with new internet marketers is they try to come up with two many things to sell at one time. It is very easy to become unfocused and try to make money with too many things at the same time. Get one product and stick with that one product until you learn different ways to promote it.
    If you truly want to succeed in the internet marketing business, you have to be patient, dedicated, and persevering. But what many individuals do not understand is that internet marketing is not all about putting up a web site.

    Yes, focus is very important. There are so many avenues to pursue and products to promote, but you almost have to put blinders on in order to zoom in on one thing long enough to make it work. :)

    Focus - the acronym for the phrase Follow One Course Until Success
    If you fail once try again.

    I think the fact that there are so many ways to create income online and twice as many instructions on how to do so is the root of the problem. Many people jump from program, product, to mentor trying to find the magic bullet.

    If more people picked one thing and stuck to it longer than a couple months they would find success.

    From what I've been reading lately, the most important thing about marketing is to find a niche to stick to it. I don't know much but I know that's what always gets stated persistently.

    Internet marketing is not much different from offline marketing as far as getting your customer/visitor open his purse. You have not many chances nor do you have long enough times to convince the visitor to pay to buy a product. If you are cut out for business, you will constantly look out for ideas to do this and if you are not, you need to put yourself in that position and start thinking like one.

    You need perseverance, dedication and all that stuff but more than all else, what you need is workable ideas that appeal to your visitors.

    Yes, but it is so hard to find that one product where there isn't a ton of competetion.

    that vindicates what I said. Just try to figure out an offline business which has low to no competition. It's almost certain that you can't buy a home in the middle of a market and expect the surrounding to be qualm too. Now what? You have got to fond a way to compromise and run the show.

    Most people come into online business with the believe that there is money to be made without putting forth any effort. Well, they would only be disappointed. Online business just like any endeavor needs hard-work some time skills too as well as persistency.
