    The posts above say how to do things and get started, but most of us get stuck (and many quit) is in the actual doing.

    I have sort of compiled the mistakes I made in the first few months of my online money-making efforts, and only after I realised and corrected them I started to actually earn.

    You can download it for free at http://www.crazypartners.com/7mistakes.pdf.

    I think those who are starting out or have yet to earn will benefit from my "hindsight".

    Hi! Dreamweaver69 John Here and I'm a newbie also. you may want to check the new LOCAL search of the big search companys.

    I can not post live live links (newbie handycap) so I will just doctor them up a little.

    There is a new search trend I have found, It's called "local search", and it is a lot of people are using it.

    You can use this trend to get new customers -- at zero cost


    I think it will work best if you have a physical business location, getting listed in the two local search sites below is a no-brainer. It's better than a yellow pages ad and it costs RIGHT ON!

    Submission to the web's top local search sites is still 100% free, and may bring you more business than you expect.


    Here are the two "local search" sites you should get into right away...

    1. Google Maps

    Google Maps (recently merged with their Google Local) and will most likely quickly becoming the leader in local search.

    The url is [http://][maps.google](dot)com you can click the "find a business" tab and find any business based on keyword, in any location worldwide.

    Also get more info her. [http://]www(dot)[google.com]/local/add/businessCenter

    2. Yahoo! Local

    Another "local search" site that getting a lot of hits [http://]local.yahoo(dot)com

    At Yahoo Local, you can search by business name, category, or keywords. You can also uncover local favorites rated by others.

    From a marketing standpoint, every business should take time to get listed.
    Yahoo Local currently offers three types of listings with prices starting at free! go to:

    Nice post. However, I find out that submitting to digg is not an efficient way to generate traffic. Traffic from such social bookmark sites could hardly convert to sales. Good way to promote your site, but not smart enough to get sales.

    Then, another thing that you forget is SEO. Make sure you install all in one SEO pack plugin.
