Why you'll never make a dime online....

    If you're struggling to make money online, I have something that's going to probably sound ridiculous at first but.....

    ...it works

    First off, stop looking at it as "making money online"... Making money online is a phrase; Internet marketing is profession. People won't take you serious until you're an internet marketer.

    Even if you don't know anything, PROCLAIM IT. Let the haters talk once you're working 4 hours a day making money from home.

    Next...

    You're going to fail.. Maybe a lot, maybe not but YOU ARE GOING TO FAIL so be ready.

    Don't let those failures get you down.... The wall of China wasn't built in a day. It took time and i'm sure they didn't expect it to get where it's at now...

    Master a certain form of internet marketing...

    If you want to promote Clickbank products on YouTube, do it until it breaks you or makes you.

    Want to blog and make money from a specific niche, do it until it makes you or breaks you....

    The goal (secret) of internet marketing is not some secret method you're missing out on. It's a system which may be created or improved on by you, that is later turned into a process.

    That process is what's going to make you rich... Just keep doing... You'll be successful... I promise you... (No disclaimer)

    Formula for success (U x FAILURE) + system + process = the life of your dreams...

    JUST DO IT.. Never give up and stick to the original plan...

    and make sure you write out your goals... That's very important. It's part of the process.

    I wish you much success....

    Bingo. Stick with one thing that is proven to work(don't go from method to method to method) and work hard until you're successful.

    Great post.

    People should especially focus on the first part of your post, where you talk about Internet Marketing as a profession.

    One of the most common problems I see is people treating Internet Marketing as a quick fix and a way to make some fast cash, and not as a sustainable business.

    In my opinion, the more people begin to treat IM as a business and a craft, the more success they will see in the long run. People who see this as a quick fix might see some success in the beginning, but they will crash and burn because they didn't have a long-term plan.

    Again, great post and thanks for sharing.

    Jake

    Great post. In the past I wasted months and months of time jumping from one thing to the next and then I realized I never finished anything. My went back to those methods that worked for me and just kept plugging at it.

    You have to be consistent with your efforts and put in time with your business efforts. Persistence pays off. There is always going to be a new product and a new method being sold to you in some kind offer in your email box. I had to stop buying stuff and use the products and tools I already had on my hard drive and get serious about being successful.

    Oh yes, another thing. I found myself snagged up with technical stuff. I now outsource the stuff that slows me down so I can complete my projects and get them up and running. What good is learning how to build a blog if it takes you 6 months to do that? Learn to delegate the tough stuff. It's now cheap to find at outsource sites like Fiverr to fill the bill.

    Nice share. I realize that I have given up on many things that would have made me a lot of money if I had just kept doing them. If you could just earn $5 / day you would be off to good start - see http://www.e1kad.com/5bucksjr/ It's only $7.77 and makes a great read.

    No matter what you're doing, send traffic. I don't care how: post with relevant blog comments, post on forums related to your niche, buy advertising with google adwords targeting buyer keywords, submit your website to directories, get on twitter & connect with potential clients, get a facebook fanpage & run some contests for exposure.

    What starts as 1 or 2 people every now and then will turn into 1 or 2 people ever day, then 10 or 20, then 100 or 200 and then you're really making money and establishing yourself as an expert.

    And why are you an expert? Because you know the "secret​" -- TARGETTED TRAFFIC!!

    It's bound to happen. I've failed so many times... Lol. I laugh now because the feeling of success is greater than failure.

    When ever i find the key to success someone changes the lock. I work 14 hours a day now because I want to earn some cash but still i see failure all the time. All my projects are a failure but when i take some suggestions from Some Online marketers about my sites they say it looks good but Money making online has been a pain.

    BTW thank you for your inspirational post.

    When you say "do it until it makes you or breaks you" in my case all time it breaks me!

    Here's a strategy.. Every night before you go to sleep, listen to some positive affirming video on YouTube. Listen to it when you wake up to. Pump your mind full of positive thoughts..

    Do that for 30 to 90 days.. Watch what happens...
