Make Money Online - Step by Step

Whether you have been Internet Marketing for a while and not getting the results you envisioned. Or If you are contemplating making money online and know nothing about the industry, then this message is for you.

For what it is worth my experience in creating my own online business over the past five years, may help you to see the BIG PICTURE behind all the hype and broken promisses being promoted all over the web.

Here is what I have learned.

To Make Money Online You Must Have Your Own Business.


Step 1. Get your own Domain Name and Hosting. Cost: $10 - $49 per month.


Step 2. Build your own website. Cost: Time.


Step 3. Optimise your site [SEO]to get visitors. Cost: Time.


Step 4. Promote other peoples products on your website whilst creating your own products. Cost: Time. Profit: Minimal.


Step 5. Promote your own products on your own website. Cost: Time. Profit: Make a living.


Step 6. Build a membership site, providing excellent value and service. Provide an affiliate program that pays excellent commisions. Cost: Time and approx $100 per year. Profits: HUGE!!!!


If this sounds like a lot of work to you - you are right it is a LOT of work.


If someone suggests an easy way to do this - get suspicious.


If someone wants you to pay up front for the pleasure of selling or promoting their product - run like hell - even if they tell you that they provide a marketing website for you.


95% of people fail in home businesses online. 95% of people do not follow the steps outlined above.


Do you need special skills to perform the six steps above? Yes but you do not need any special skills to learn these skills, only the desire to do so.


Where can I learn these skills and how much will the instruction cost me.


The internet is a wonderful medium providing all the information and tools for free if you know where to look.


Without guidence you are likely going to suffer from information overload and total confusion. Therefore I suggest you start by going to a free information site on; "How To Start A Home Business Online" at: http://www.kimbro.net/ Here you will find Free step by step guides and tools to do all of the above.


The other option is to hire people to develop your website and business for you. Only for those with a huge budget. You will find thousands of companies on the internet who specialize in business developement - just do a search on Google.
