Make Money Online Newbie
I spent hours, maybe even days ans a ‘newbie’ trying to find a way to make money online. I started trying free online lotteries and other free services hoping to hit the ‘jackpot’ any luck. I was slowly coming to the conclusion that I would need to be a web designer or in IT to land a steady online income.
Subscribing to some of these “get rich quick” ideas is like buying knock-off Nike shoes from a street vendor. Their sales pitch was great and the shoes look perfect but after you try them on and walk around a little, you notice they aren’t made very well and you’ve gotten something that has little or no value. It’s no wonder people are giving up trying to find online employment after being frustrated with online scams and rip-offs.
While the internet is full of websites offering “data entry employment” or “make money filling out surveys”, there are some that offer real value. Many people are now getting into Internet Marketing and promoting digital products and software along with many other items.
Even with Affiliate Marketing being a great place for newbies to get their feet wet, many will find themselves wondering what they should sell? You will achieve success by choosing just one Niche market to start and giving it 100%. The leading causes to failure in Affiliate marketing is that people get sidetracked half way into a project or decide to throw in the towel after a few unsuccessful attempts.
The necessity to have multiple campaigns at the same time seems to be a common misconception of Affiliate marketing. This causes people to spread themselves too thin which wears them out before seeing a profit. The competition in Internet marketing can be fierce and it’s always better to focus on one type of market than to be an expert in every niche market.
If you are newbie seeking out trusted and proven Affiliate marketing websites, they are out there and you may just have to dig a little. You’re best option is to find one that requires a membership as many of these free affiliate forums and websites are a magnet for spammers that prey on people looking to make a living via the internet. Personally, I registered to over 20 free sites before realizing that I had to dish out a little money for a quality membership to a quality website.
If you happen fall victim to a scam as many people do, take this experience and learn from it. The people that continue to apply themselves even after failure, ultimately succeed.

This is a good article. It is important to stick to just one niche when starting out. Marketing your products takes time so get great at 1 then add more slowly. The most important line of text in the article…”The people that continue to apply themselves even after failure, ultimately succeed.” Thanx for the insight.

I was in exactly the same shoes as you. I was constantly looking for the right program to make me rich. I haven’t even counted the money I have wasted buying these programs. It’s all very well setting up these turnkey websites, that’s the easy part, it’s driving traffic to it that the hard part. Luckily I didn’t give up and I have finally found something that has given me the tools to learn how to make money online and find that niche. I have two niches at the moment, and yes it’s hard work and maybe I should have stuck to just one niche, but it feels good to have finally found something that is worth the money I am paying.

You can definitely go the ‘free’ route, but it will take a bit more time and endurance to go through trial and errors.
