    They also want everything for free without making small investments in advertising. If you use free services, your site will likely be buried underneath the thousands of other free sites. Also it is laziness. Every site I have created has never lost money, even if it never gained a lot of profit. I tried to teach friends in real life simple steps on how to make money and they shoot down the idea without even trying. Then they go back to their dead end, low paying job while I make more money in one day than they make all month. They see this with their eyes and still refuse to take any action to do the same as me.

    1. Lack of patience
    2. No business plan or goals
    3. Not willing to invest at least some money into their business
    4. Looking or waiting for the next big thing before getting started

    I agree. But I think I fall in the forth one and a little in second one....Everytime I log in to the backend I always get hooked with it and I think I love doing something in the backend rather than promoting my site but I'm really trying my best to make some time management.

    Correct and most importantly people fail to take action.

    Well, I always believe that there are many ways to make money online. Launching a great site and sell links and posts on it is among the best way. You could also join Affliated programs, completing online survey which send reward vochures, etc.
    And I always thought that the reason many people fail to make money online is that... too many scams online... too many traps... instead of making money, a lot of victims to such flauds lose money for 'registration', 'fees for starting packages', blablabla... Shame.
    So, whatever, just hope people realize that there is never such thing as easy money and be more careful with the schemes of making money online. And wish everyone luck.

    Adsense is the the best way... CPA is, adsense is very strict and you have no full control of your account..

    Definitely information overload and the promise of making a lot of money, very quickly, for very little effort, is a problem when you are just starting out.

    That's usual, the funny thing is that I've got pretty good cash with the last 6 months with only 1 BLOG
    3 months of building, 3 months of gaining. Got 450€ already = ~700$

    A big one is simply that people underestimate the amount of traffic they need to monetize their website.
    I'm prepared for a large flood of disagreements, but I wouldn't recommend using advertising as a source of main for small budget startups (especially if this is how you plan to make a living).

    I've learned to redefine success for myself. My definition now is not if I make money, but just COMPLETING what I start and not getting distracted by all the other STUFF! I think if I stick with that the money will come.

    I read an article by Dr. Kevin Hogan not too long ago that stated that people get bored or no get no results quickly with what they are doing, see something new and jump on it continously. They get a sense of accomplishment by doing this - like a fresh start. Interesting psychological perspective.

    lol, that actually sounds a lot like me. Although I would like to think I have grown and learned from those mistakes now, but ya I have made my fair share of them.
