Here is EXACTLY what you should do, if you want to experience success online. So no whining about how much initial work there is because it works. 1. Get webhosting and a domain. Pick a niche, any niche that you want. 2. Sign up for aweber or get response (email list management services) 3. Get an easy on the eye web template and edit with free html editor like Kompozer or NVU. 4. Pick a product in the niche you picked. Any product that you want to promote. Look at the sales page - pull off ALL the benefits from the sales page. Sum up those benefits of as bullet points. Add a headline. You can use a standard one like this: "Who else wants to discover the secrets of (Put main benefit of niche product here) Then set up your list and add the opt-in code. 5. Now, write 7 emails for your list. Make them something like this: "Hey [firstname!], How would you like to (Main benefit here)? I know I did when I was in your place. Fortunately I discovered (product name here). It's great! I recommend that you check it out here: ___ The product teaches you ....(Benefits)...and how to (benefits). It really does work! Go here to find out more: ____ Thanks, Your Name P.S. Tomorrow I'm going to show you a killer hint that you can apply now! Look forward to my email" Then go do some digging for related articles in your niche. Find some cool info and make that email about that hint. Then, do something like: "Did you check out that site yesterday? It contains tons of stuff like the above, but even more powerful!" 6. Write 7 emails like that. Each for 1 day. 7. Now, start driving traffic. Write 3 articles about your niche a day and submit them to ezinearticles. Then, social bookmark them, submit your RSS feed of EZA to all the RSS feed directories. After your articles get approved at EZA, rewrite them and submit them to several other article sites. Or you can go the pay per click route. 8. Rinse and Repeat It just comes down to ACTION
