    I would start on Youtube. You'll find plenty of successful digital marketers with proven methods that work. Also read the posts on this forum dating back 2 years.

    You know your goals, and you can start to develop a plan to achieve DM. There are many different aspects of digital marketing, so it's important to start by learning the basics. This includes understanding the different channels, such as search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click (PPC), social media marketing, and email marketing.

    Get hands-on experience. The best way to learn digital marketing is by doing it. Start by creating a website or blog and experiment with different marketing techniques. You can also volunteer your services to a local business or nonprofit organization.

    There are many online and offline communities where you can connect with other digital marketers. This is a great way to learn from others, share your knowledge, and find job opportunities. Digital marketing is a constantly evolving field, so it's important to stay up-to-date with the latest trends. Read industry blogs, attend conferences, and take online courses.

    That "2 years" is really important. Things change over time and older information may no longer be relevant or "best practice".

    Here is a few tips that may help you start...
    1. Decide what you like to work with more (which area - eBooks? Videos? Websites? Social Posting?)
    2. Set aside fixed time for research and self-education. It is very easy to lost your track in the sea of internet marketing tips and advices. Not all of them are useful and genuine. You will have to do a lot of sifting work. I think, on average, you will find only one really useful, doable, no-nonsense guide out of 20-30 other guides, videos, articles and tips. It is very important to follow the fixed time rule for what you do because many people easily get carried away and lose their time without achieving anything.
    3. After dedicating one week to study and research, define for yourself what was the most useful information and stack it aside in the folder.
    4. Go through these refined information and try to narrow it down to a smaller scale piece.
    5. Usually, you may end up with 4-5 good strategies to work with. Make a list of them and decide which one you want to try working with first. IMPORTANT: always set a fixed time frame for each of your activities, or else you will be carried away and won't be productive.
    6. Once you chose one of them, begin digging deeper into that specific strategy. If it is about doing videos and building YouTube channel, focus your mind and research on this topic alone. Same applies if you decide to become a website-builder specialist, or social media guru.
    7. Try to start small. If it is affiliate marketing, find some easily promotable product (ClickBank and other similar affiliate platforms offer plenty of products) and begin consistently building your affiliate vehicles (be it videos, blogs, articles, or anything). If it is a product creation, focus on that tightly and try to become and expert in it. What matters is to give people something of a real value. Don't just throw some dead AI generated content at them, it won't succeed.
    8. Dedicate separate time to studying about search engine optimization, marketing, ranking. (to all these tasks set aside a fixed time frame).
    9. If you make mistakes, be happy, because you have just moved closer to your success by finding out what NOT to do. Write down your internet marketing mistakes to make sure you avoid them in the future. If you achieve success in something, celebrate it and write down your own set of tips and methods that worked well for you - to use them again in the next project.
    10. Rinse and repeat.

    Start learning digital marketing with foundational courses provided by Google's Digital Garage or HubSpot Academy; these platforms provide thorough introductions to key concepts. In parallel, read industry blogs like Moz, Search Engine Land, and Content Marketing Institute to keep yourself updated. Gaining practical experience is invaluable; consider hands-on projects, internships, or freelancing projects where theoretical knowledge can be applied directly into practice. Likewise, join digital marketing communities on platforms like LinkedIn or Reddit, where professionals share insights and trends - always be willing to adapt quickly as the digital landscape shifts! To truly master digital marketing!

    It seems like you're suggesting starting on YouTube and exploring content from successful digital marketers with proven methods that work. Additionally, you mention reading posts on a forum dating back 2 years for valuable insights.

    Starting on YouTube can indeed be a great way to learn from successful digital marketers. Many professionals and experts share their knowledge and experiences on the platform, providing valuable tips, strategies, and case studies. You can find tutorials, discussions, and practical advice on various aspects of digital marketing, including social media marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), content marketing, and more.

    For forums, they can be excellent resources for networking and learning from the experiences of others in the field. Reading posts dating back 2 years might provide a historical perspective on trends, challenges, and successful strategies within the digital marketing landscape.

    Remember to critically evaluate the information you come across, as the digital marketing field can evolve rapidly. Strategies that worked well in the past may need adjustments to align with current trends and algorithms. Stay updated with the latest industry news and changes to ensure your knowledge remains relevant.

    There isn't one single "easiest" way to learn digital marketing, as it depends on your learning style and preferences. However, here are some excellent free and cheap resources to get you started, along with estimated learning times:

    Free Resources:

    • Google Digital Garage: Google's own beginner-friendly platform offers various bite-sized modules on essential digital marketing topics like SEO, social media, and email marketing. It's free, self-paced, and takes around 3-4 hours to complete all modules.
    • HubSpot Academy: Another fantastic resource with free courses on inbound marketing, SEO, content marketing, and more. You can choose individual courses or follow learning paths that take 4-12 hours to complete.
    • Udemy: While Udemy does have paid courses, they frequently offer free or heavily discounted ones. Look for beginner-friendly courses on digital marketing fundamentals, SEO, or social media. Learning time can vary depending on the course length but expect 4-10 hours for comprehensive ones.
    • YouTube: Several channels offer valuable digital marketing insights for free. Check out Moz, Ahrefs, Semrush, Neil Patel, and HubSpot for actionable tips and tutorials. This method is flexible and lets you focus on specific topics, but organized learning paths are missing.

    Learn from free courses, YouTube, etc.

    Buy a domain/hosting, build a brand, and start practicing what you learn. Also, learn as you go. Experience is crucial, just 'learning' won't get you anywhere.
