Making Money Online IS Possible... Here's HOW

Are you trying to make money online but just can't seem to get
the income you want? There are thousands upon thousands of
aspiring online business entrepreneurs who are in the same
boat as you right now. You are not alone! However, in this
article, I am going to give you some tips on how to actually
make money online and eventually bring in a very nice income.


Before we get started let's talk a little about who I
am and why it's even worth your time to listen to me. Am I
rich? No. My bank account would be laughable compared to Bill
Gates or Donald Trump, but compared to the average person
trying to make money online from a home business you could say
I am doing quite well.

I started my online business
about three and a half years ago and slowly but surely
increased my income to the point of financial independence. I
now make a very good full time income online and only work a
few hours per week. It wasn't easy... far from it! But it was
worth it. I don't consider myself to be some money making
guru. But I have been making money online, and teaching people
to do the same, long enough to know what I am talking about.


So how can you make a living from home? Here are the
steps necessary to make money online and eventually bring in
a very good income...

1) Define Your "Why" - Really the
first, and most important, step to becoming rich is not "how"
to do it but "why" to do it. Without your why, your how will
be nearly impossible. Once you have found your why, it is much
easier to find your how to become rich. You must look deep
inside yourself to find out why you want to become rich. Once
you have found it write it down and keep it in a place where
you will see it everyday. After you find your why you can
search for your how. Remember, there is no easy road to riches.
If there was then everyone would be rich.

2)
Write Your Plan - When you are getting started you will need a
plan. What exactly do you want to accomplish? How long will it
take to do it? What steps do you need to take to ensure it
happens? How many hours are you going to put in each day? How
much money can you afford to spend on marketing? Etc... Think
about these questions and write down the answers. Make your
plan realistic and stick with it as closely as possible. It can
be modified along the way as things change but you should
always have a realistic plan to follow.

3) Find Your
"How" - Now it's time to start searching for how you will make
money online. There are many different ways to make money
online. A few of the most popular ones are: business
opportunities, affiliate marketing, network marketing, niche
marketing, creating your own e-book, or doing an actual online
job. Most of these actually go hand-in-hand so you will usually
be doing more than one at a time. They are usually lumped under
one umbrella called internet marketing.

My suggestion is
to start out with an actual paying online job as well as at
least one of the others. Doing this will allow you to bring in
an online income while getting started in something that you
will eventually make a lot more money doing. For instance, you
could work a couple hours per day in an online job while
spending the rest of your spare time learning how to market
affiliate programs.

I actually know of a great program
where that is exactly what you do. You make money working
online jobs while also getting into affiliate marketing and a
business opportunity and learning to market on the internet.

4)
Get Educated - Walking blindly into an online business without
having some basic education is suicide! You need to know the
basics of online marketing and promoting. You can get this
education for free all over the place on the internet. A great
place to start is internet marketing forums and articles.


You also need to know programs to definitely stay away from
before you make the mistake of jumping into some overhyped
dishonest opportunity or even an all out scam. A good way to
be sure you don't get sucked into one of these is to stay away
from anything that promises ridiculously large amounts of money
in a short period of time. Or any opportunity that says you will
make a lot of money without doing any, or very little, work.
It's just not true!


To help you out a little here are a few things I can tell you
right now to avoid - paid to read emails, randomizers, doublers,
paid to surf, HYIP, the oprah paypal letter, etc... of course
there are more things to stay away from but I can't go into
detail in this article due to length. I will tell you that the
Honest Income Program mentioned above gives you a lot more
programs to avoid and tells why you should avoid them.

5)
Get Started - Now it's time for you to get started making money
in your new business. It is critical in this step to be focused.
Don't go jumping around to every opportunity you see just
because it promises riches. Stick with what you started and put
your full effort into it. It is also critical that you do not
expect too much too fast. It is going to take time to start
making money online and it is going to take even longer to start
making a significant amount of income.

While you are
getting started you will be learning a LOT. In fact, you will
probably feel like you are on information overload and feel
overwhelmed by everything there is to learn. Don't worry it
will all come together. Just take things one step at a time in
an organized manner. The learning is something that never stops.
You will constantly be learning new things in online business
but the beginning is probably the most crucial and the toughest.


The most important part of this step is to TAKE ACTION!
Yes, there is a lot to learn and a lot to do but the only way to
get anywhere is to do something with it. Making money online is
largely about taking action. The more you sit back and wait for
the "right time" the less you are actually out there making money.

6)
Work Hard and NEVER Quit - This is probably the best advice
that was ever given to me and I consider it the most important
tip I can pass on to anyone trying to make money online. No matter
what anyone tells you making money online is hard work. You have
to put in a lot of time and effort before you reap the rewards of
it. You will fail at times, that is certain! However, you will
also succeed if you get up from those failures and keep going!


That's it. Those are the six basic steps to making money online
and eventually bringing in a great full-time income. Of course,
this article is a simplified version of what it truly takes.
There is more detail to making money online that cannot be
fully explained in one article but the above is basically all
you need to do. It will not be easy but it can certainly be
done. There are thousands upon thousands of people making money
online right now. Many of them are very rich because of it.
Follow the above steps and you can be making a full time income
on the internet soon enough.
