Like most people you read about they have been trying to make money online.
It does sound good; quit your day job, sit at home and watch your computer crank in the cash while you watch reruns of 24...
like a virtual slot machine that won't lose.
But...
this is not the case.
Just like any business, making money online via internet marketing is just like any other business.
You have to learn some basics, and then you follow the plan.
So, what is the plan in making money through the internet marketing? What are the basics and how long will this take? These are great questions and have been the same questions we all have asked ourselves.
Let me begin by answering them one by one.
First, the basics are simple.
To do any internet marketing you have to know how to navigate the internet.
You will have to learn to make a website.
This can be very daunting if you don't know how, but there are tools to make it easier than you think.
If you have time, you can do this rather quickly with some free tools offered on the internet.
So, depending on how quickly you learn this will determine how long it will take you to meet your goal.
If you don't have time on your hands to learn this, you may wish to hire someone else to do the work for you.
This is obviously the quickest way to make money, however, the saying holds true, "it takes money to make money".
So, if you have the money to invest, consider outsourcing your web design.
Now that you have the answer to the two most asked questions in internet marketing, the third question is what is the plan and can it really be done? Can you really make money online? Yes, and the plan is to learn, learn, learn, work, work, work, and give your time, time, time.
I write this just to let you know some people that say they make money in two weeks already had some background in marketing, or in web design or in some other learned skill that boosted their efforts.
But if you don't have any skills, and only have a persistent desire to learn, then you will succeed.
Like me, it has taken me a year, but after a year I can honestly say, I am making decent money, I have quit my day job, I am home with my kids and I am doing what I absolutely love doing!
