Are you one of these people thinking about starting your own internet business from your laptop at a beachside cafe? If so, have you taken the trouble to have some business training, gained some internet experience or even attended a computer training class at your local college?

Statistics suggest that upwards of 90% of people who start out with high hopes of running a home business internet marketing company fail. it’s not a coincidence that the failure rate mirrors the failures in conventional businesses.

On the other hand, you can quite well understand how many people are besotted about making money on the web when they are assailed with the easy-come blandishments and make money scams singing the praises of internet marketing for just a few key strokes a day. And when these alluring ads are illustrated by opulent Florida beach villas, Ferrari motor cars and Cessna aircraft, the thought of an exit from the daily grind is mightily attractive.

And, it goes without saying; there are sufficient suitable make money opportunities to suit your aptitude and personal interests. Likewise, you can achieve anything you want in any successful business with the right mindset. So, if you’ve got what it takes, and it takes plenty, you can try any of the hundreds of make money opportunities on the internet. And you can start from home just as you can with many other traditional businesses.

But don’t expect to get super rich overnight; it can be a long haul and there will be heartaches along the way. You’ll have to put in the time to achieve your goal ‘ there’s no short cut ‘ because there is a definite link between success and the amount of work you are prepared to do. Keep in mind the old maxim “The Harder I Work The Luckier I Get”. Nevertheless, when the cash starts rolling in, as it surely will, you’ll realize that making money on the web is better than being in some deadend job; you’ll learn a lot, meet some extraordinary people, have lots of fun and, above all, you’ll never again have that “Thank God It’s Friday feeling”. And that really is something worth achieving – you’re supposed to enjoy life!

If you want to spread the risk you could some join like-minded colleagues or friends and form a partnership or better still, find a mentor who is experienced and has consistently been able to make money with computer skills and relevant internet know-how.

Alternatively, get hold of some good DVDs so that you can actually see how things are done on a screen in front of you. You’ll learn the latest internet “How To” tips, tricks and techniques simply by watching how to do it on video.

On the other hand you might check out one or two of the first-class online training software programs relating to your particular web niches.

If you want some really encouraging news, it’s this: There are thousands of people who have left the rat race and are perfectly happy in their work at home internet business. Some are making just as much as they did in a regular job while others have reached the Promised Land where they have found it to contain beach houses, Ferraris and Cessnas in abundance

More good news is that there are many ways of making money on the web; it’s a fact that there is a new angle on internet success everyday – even making money on ebay – and it’s an exciting place to be when things finally click.

On the other hand it’s not all good news because knowing how to use a computer is only the first step on a very long journey; this particular learning curve can be exceptionally steep. You’ll need to know something about web sites and their content and whether the sphere you’re operating in actually needs a website to make some money. And then you’ll be investigating the virtues of XSitePro, Front Page, Dreamweaver and other WYSIWYG programs for web sites. You’ll doubtless have heard of ClickBank, AdSense, Pay-per-click, PayPal, PayDot.com, Squidoo, eBay, YouTube, Facebook, Digg, Twitter, WordPress, del.icio.us, StumbleUpon, reddit, and furl – not forgetting article marketing. Maybe they are not all important achieve some success but, as you travel the internet road, each will become a decidedly useful addition to you armory. If you are happy to put in some time and effort the make money opportunities on the net will provide you with handsome rewards and a matching lifestyle. However, don’t expect to sit on a beach while you are doing it.

Google cash has generated waves of reviews in cyberspace. It has been considered even a hot topic for some time now. This system claims that one will earn a minimum of thousands of dollars per week just via the system without even doing anything extra like selling, advertising, recruiting or making websites.

Many people get attracted with this concept because there is little risk and the rewards can be very, very beneficial. It’s always good to keep a healthy skepticism and read my review here before deciding.

The system is being presented on the Google cash website which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It also promises a very solid and reliable customer support for all its members.

It teaches people how to earn money online through the use of the internet. It mentions testimonials saying it to be a great money making system that is fool-proof.

Overall in our analysis, Google cash has been said to be a good program that is helping people. However, remember that even the greatest programs out there are not perfect. You may check out various programs and pick the best one that suits your needs.

For example, one thing to watch out for is when a product is linked to casinos.

However, Google cash should not be in this category at all. It may be tempting when you first hear what it is being offered, especially if you do not have to actually do anything that’s required of most of the people for success.

Whatever you decide to get yourself into, make sure it’s something that can earn residual income. The best way to start making money online with a product is to ensure it allows low-cost methods to start up.

Many businesses and money-making methods fail at first because cash flow is not managed properly. So even if you are using a good program, it is still wise to keep an eye on the income you are producing on a daily basis.

Most people may not have heard of this term before they read this article but before you read any further there are several terms that need to be explained. The first one of these, pay per click, many people will have heard of or at least be able to guess at what it means.

Pay per click

Applied to the internet this means that for every click on your advertisement on a web page or through a search engine you will be paid for it. However, there are costs to all this for you as well. For example if you decide to advertise through Google AdWords you can set up this form of advertising quite easily through Google. You will be guided through a registration process step by step and you can even phone a Google representative who can help you further but although you will make money for each time someone clicks on an advertisement of yours you will also have to pay for each click too.

Pay per click is used to make your advertisement appear higher in the listing for a Search Engine and this means that you are more likely o have your advertisement noticed.

Arbitrage

The literal definition for an arbitrage is concerned with trying to make a profit through exploitation of different prices or markets. That sounds a bit complicated doesn’t it? Now how is this all connected with pay per click?

Pay per click Arbitrage

This method of advertising can make you more money as you are not just benefiting from advertisements on one web page or Search Engine. For example, a person setting up advertising on the internet might buy their clicks from Google or Yahoo and then get rewarded by redirecting people to another set of advertisements on another website. By doing this, they will be paid more money and thus gain more profit. In other words you are creating low cost advertisements to attract people who will then click on high cost advertisements and thus make you more profit.  

It is possible to get paid more for this method of PPC by signing up with a secondary Search Engine e.g. Lycos, Ask.com. There are advantages to this approach as these search engines often give you a better return in your investment.

You must then advertise with PPC to be able to find the customers who are most likely to click on your advertisements. If enough people click on your advertisements you can make a nice profit.  In order to make the most profit you need to do some very careful research into what areas to place your advertisements in. For example, you could start really small, with a one page website with advertisements and then expand it to more and more as you get the idea of what you are doing. It is also a good idea to pick a relevant domain name as this will also help to attract more people and thus more profit.

Good luck!

As a solo-professional or small business owner, you have many responsibilities. Not only do you have to run your business and manage all the tasks associated with that, you also have to market that business.

But just how should you divvy up your day?

How much time should you spend on marketing?

I believe you need to spend at least half of your time on marketing. In fact, as a business owner, I believe you really only have two main responsibilities:

1) Spending your time on revenue-producing activities

2) Marketing your business

Your time is valuable, so you shouldn’t waste it on mundane tasks that someone else could easily do.

You should be spending half your time generating income for your business. This might include things like servicing your clients and creating products.

The other half of your time should be spent on marketing to grow your business. That might include activities like writing articles and press releases, doing speaking engagements, writing and publishing an ezine or newsletter, advertising, relationship marketing, networking or Internet marketing. Any activity that is designed to bring you more clients or more sales.

But what about “all those other things” that have to get done?

All those administrative business tasks like paying bills, invoicing clients, going to the bank, picking up office supplies, fulfilling orders, monthly bookkeeping and clerical tasks like filing?

Or all of those household tasks like grocery shopping, cleaning your house, and doing laundry?

Find a way to delegate “all those other things”

…so you can focus your time on your top two priorities. If your time is worth $50 an hour or $150 an hour and you are spending it on $10 an hour tasks, it just doesn’t make sense.

What if you can’t afford to hire help?

I was in this boat for a long time myself. My mentors kept telling me to create a team and delegate. But I thought I couldn’t afford to. When I finally took the leap of faith and began assembling a team, my entire business and life changed.

I went from being a lone ranger doing everything in my businesses (yes, it was very tiring!) to a team that includes a bookkeeper, CPA, attorney, virtual assistant, writer, art director and production artist, media buyer, web developer, product manufacturer, fulfillment house, computer technician, real estate partners, property management company and others I’m sure I’m forgetting about right now.

No, I don’t have an office with all these people on staff.

I am still a “company of one.” These people are partners that I pay for specific services when I need them.

And I’ve enlisted the help of my family with the household tasks and hired housekeepers so I don’t have to spend my valuable work hours or my precious free time on these activities.

Yes, I still do some things I probably shouldn’t.

But the point is, over the past two years, I’ve learned to find experts and utilize their services to help me grow my business.

And even though I thought I couldn’t afford to hire a team…

Now I can’t imagine running my business (or my life) any other way. And paying for this help has never been an issue. Because the time they have freed up allows me to focus on my top two priorities, which has grown my businesses.

Your Marketing Step

Look around. Are you trying to do it all yourself? Are you running your business as a lone ranger? Are you spending time on activities that someone else could be doing?

If you are, I encourage you to step back and re-evaluate how your business is structured. And create a structure and a team that will allow you to spend your time on marketing and revenue-producing activities. And then watch your business grow!
