Make Money Online - What You Are Doing and What You Have to Do

If you are trying to make money online and just can't seem to break the barrier or if you are completely new, I am going to give you some much needed advice. Take it from me because I have been there, done that. Most people online have had the same problem. For some, it may take much longer than it will for others. What we all have had in common is the fact that we were trying to do too much. Way too many things on our plate, so to speak. Even a professional can only juggle so many balls.

To simplify things a little, let's say you are one of those people who are having a little success but can't quite get what it takes to bring in a very good income while trying to make money online. Let me ask you this. How many different projects have you got on the go? I bet you have quite a few, whether you are active in all them or not. You still have way too much to think about. With all those projects on the go, it is going to be near impossible for you to succeed. Unless you are about as lucky as one of those people who win the lotto. The thing is, the odds say you probably will never win. Those are the odds of you succeeding if you are jumping from project to project. We will discuss a few things that you have to do later in this article.

Now for those of you who are new to online marketing and really want to make money online. You probably are banging your head against the wall to come up with a product to sell online. Maybe you have chosen a product, possibly built a website or a blog, tried a few traffic generation techniques with little or no success. You probably did this for a short time and started to build another website for another product or products and went through the same vicious circle. It becomes heart breaking and mind numbing. You are probably so confused you are driving yourself crazy. Stick around because I have some helpful advice for you as well.

Maybe you are a complete newbie and wish to make money online. You probably don't have a clue and you want to start reading everything you can to get some knowledge. You probably don't know anything about building a website or blog and possibly are thinking about those free websites with products already on them or MLM programs. You may not even know what MLM stands for at this point in time. FYI (Multi Level Marketing). You have a large learning curve to go through but if you keep reading I can shorten the time from when you are not making money to the time you are bringing in a good amount of money. Please don't quit your regular job just yet. It takes time to make money online and enjoy a lifestyle of a great income. Lying around the pool or vacationing while your efforts make you money, takes time and automation. Don't get discouraged, it can happen much quicker if you do it right.

In all the different scenarios above there is one main thing you have to do to make money online. There are different measures you need to do to accomplish the main thing but it is most important to simplify things in order to become successful online. How do you do that you may ask? Take everything you have that is not working for you on your computer and either get rid of it or put it in a folder and put it somewhere you are not going to look at it. I am talking about everything from websites, blogs, domain names, eBay and absolutely everything that is not working for you at the moment. This will give you less to think about.

Now it is time to get organized. Don't put it off, do it now and continue on with it until you finish. Leave checking stats and email alone until you get it done. Create a Business folder and write a note book explanation to yourself what you are doing to organize. Now create folders inside that business folder such as traffic, content, and websites, whatever you can think of and put the appropriate information in them as you go. Create folders inside those folders and name them so you can find them easily if you need them, such as inside the traffic folder you can create a training pdf folder for all your traffic training pdf's and so on Also create a folder for resources and place your resources in there when you read about them in your training material or from your email and such. Keep it organized as you go because it will save you a whole lot of time when you are working on a project.

Now with everything organized you can start to make money online. How do I do that you ask? Take a project you have had some success with or a project you are interested in. For those who are completely new at this there some low price information products out there to help you choose a product or project. Work on that project with all other projects completely out of your mind for the time being. Get the appropriate training for that project whether it is building a website or building a squeeze page or setting up an auto responder series. Pick the product or project through research. Get the blog or website ready; get your auto responder series ready. It doesn't have to be perfect, it can and in most every case will be tweaked. The main thing is get it done without any other distractions.

Now you have everything organized and I don't mean take weeks to do this. You have the website necessary for your product or project. Now here is one of the most important tid bits of advice I can give you. You will not make one cent unless you get this product or project in front of a lot of people's eyes. You need lots of traffic to make this work and this is where most people fail. They run off and try something else before they get a great deal of traffic.

Work on getting traffic. Don't start something else yet. You will not make money if you wait for the traffic to come to you. You have to make it happen. Get out of your comfort zone. Write the articles, submit the articles, submit an ad to ezines, do the social networking sites. Think traffic, don't stop at one method. Do not just write one article, continue to write more. Learn what is necessary to get a particular traffic technique done, implement it and continue to implement it while learning new traffic methods.

When you have accomplished your goal and the product has become successful you can now start a new project if you wish. Your income on the first project should be automated by now. The hardest has been accomplished. The learning curve has become much smaller and your next product or project will be much, much easier because of the learning curve. Just remember to get the job done and then be relentless when it comes to generating traffic.
