Internet Marketing Is Very Hard. Don't Try It!!

    Introduction:
    I'm sure the headline surprised you. Today, what's so called "gurus", are trying to tell you to stop thinking about making money online, and to forget anything you knew before about it. Because, you can't do it unless you follow their way. I wrote this article just to demonstrate how it's easy to be done.


    Try it out:

    1- Long-term plan:

    What I going to talk about today is, how to make money online without spending money or waiting for a long time. One of the easiest ways goes like this:

    - Build up a simple blog to write some good articles about the niche you're passion to.

    - Next, get some back links when you earn from AdSense or any other advertising network.

    - Try to get traffic with every possible way(like bookmarking).

    Of course it's not the fastest way to make money. But, It won't cost you a penny, and it works great!

    2- Shot-term plan:

    If you don't like patience, you can follow the following steps to do it faster:
    - Write a few articles (or even a report) about your niche.

    - Then, sell it for a few bucks. Say, for 30$.

    - Now, go to AdWords, promote a good product that has a high gravity.

    Imagine that you converted those 30$ into 200$(with CPC: 0.30$-CTR: 5%-Commission: 40$ per sale).
    Believe me it's not that hard. Of course, it requires some serious hours of work.
    But, you can make a living online very easy.

    What an expert says.... :

    If you don't know who is Armand Morin, then click on this link.
    He is a great internet marketing expert. His ebook, Internet Marketing Explained (or IME for short) is yet another proof of the simplicity of building business online.

    In his ebook he mentioned the following:

    "It really isn’t hard. Let me prove it to you. Here’s how you start making money today. 
    1.) Pick a topic 
    2.) Go to Google and search for this… “topic” private label eBook  
     
    (Now some of you can’t find a private label eBook on your topic… quit whining and pick a 
    different topic!) 
     
    3.) Buy the private label product (duh!) 
    4.) Get a ClickBank Acount 
    5.) Add your product to ClickBank 
    6.) Edit the sales letter of your private label package with your payment link from ClickBank 
    7.) Get a domain name 
    8.) Buy a cheap hosting account for $7.95 a month 
    9.) Upload the package to your hosting account 
    10.) Buy traffic from Google AdWords  

    (Oh, I know some of you are whining again about not knowing how to use Google AdWords. 
    Here’s a hint… Read the instructions. They have several hours worth of video tutorials 
    there. Here’s another hint… you’ll never know how to use it unless you try it.) 
    http://www.google.com/AdWords/learningcenter/)

    11.) Get 1000 people to go to your site 
    12.) Track your conversions 
    13.) Now tweak the headline 
    14.) Send another 1000 people to it 
    15.) Rinse and repeat 
    16.) To be specific, repeat until you are making $300‐$1000 net profit from this one product.

    Ok, so some of you may be thinking, “Well what about a website?” Most “private label” products 
    come with the product, the salesletter/website and many times even the thank you page or download 
    page for after the sale. These products are also digital so, there’s no need to ship anything.

    I think that does it. You’re now making money online. Repeat this 100 times with different products 
    and you’re rich! 
    You’ve just built a business of $30,000 - $100,000 a month. 
    Enough said."

    Yes, Armand, enough said. The steps are clear and easy to understand.


    Even list building is easy :

    Furthermore, there is another good way to make money and even to build a list. This requires writing
    a good report with some value inside. Write it yourself if you can, or, buy some PLR articles and put them in your report. Then, give it for free after the user enters his email address. Now, you can sell products in this report or do whatever you think will be profitable for you. Send visitors to your website through AdWords or whatever you like.
    Now, you have a list, made money by selling products in your free report, made a brand, and finally, built a list. Use this list as you like!

    Repeat these steps many times. Don't just give up if you failed!.
    In the next posts, I'm going to talk about these steps in detail.

    Your questions, suggestions, and testmonials are welcome!

    great post

    Yes, some experts say things too easily because they have done it

    but they do have a point tho

    they done it, so can you.

    It's all about time and effort

    and willing to try different tactics like doing adult sites and mainstreams sites

    don't always stuck to the same field

    anyway bump, bump, bump

    Perhaps you should include Joint Venture:

    Sign up an account in the forum

    Participate actively to make new friends in the forum

    Once you have your own product or lists, you can ask for Joint Venture with another Internet Marketer

    Joint Venture is one of the greatest leverage that you shouldn't ignore to build and grow your business rapidly

    There appears to be a ton of focus on short term gains. While this is fine and dandy, I think the best approach for the serious online career is to focus on building a brand. Either one big and popular site around a topic that interests you or a small handful of sites that interest you. Put blood, sweat, and tears into it for a few years and I think sucess will be there.

    Google/Internet Users are getting more and more savy about the "useless" sites strictly created to generate a quick buck and as technology increases, those sites will cease to be put in front of users faces anymore.

    If you look at the big earners in the Internet game, they usually offer a solid product that's of interest and of use to a large audience.

    I didn't think it was all that informative. I've seen the same content as that post all around the internet and these messageboards.

    The pay from Adsense is very low. It only works if you have a network of sites. If you have say 50 sites and you make 50 cents or 1 dollar a day then you can make 25 to 50 dollars a day. And of course these sites must get at least 500 to 1000 unique visitors a day.

    Google adwords seems to be a waste of money for many people. Perhaps if one tried to market scientifically then one could succeed. But I think even really smart people lose on adwords.

    I would go with traditional SEO (Search Engine Optimization). At least then the traffic is free so there is less risk. Seriously, you might pay Adwords 75 dollars for 150 visitors (at 0.50 a click). You can get the same targeted traffic for nothing.

    I don't agree with that.
    With keyword research and some techniques, it's not that hard.

    The key is persistence. Most want to do some blast and have that be it.

    Hi!! Loai Najati
    Thank you for posting the link ..But the link does not contains the e-book of IME as desired by me..
    It instead contains a 50 page report by the same author & that link too is not working fine....
