It has taken me a whole two years to finally start making income online. All this time I have tried to learn the ropes, worked hard promoting my blog and waited for the results. Sometimes I was in the thick of the mud and really wanted to give up. Maybe this whole thing about making a full income online was too good to be true. I however chose to soldier on. I had free internet back at school and lots of free time so it didn't seem like I had anything to lose. Besides, I really don't like giving up that easily.
I now have some experience and I can tell you what it takes to make money online.
For one, you need to think outside the box. It doesn't make sense to write about a topic that has been tackled and written about to death. True, it might be profitable but you also realize that it will be very competitive and pitched with guys who have lots of cash to spend on Google AdWords, you might never make it.
Write about what you know and what you are really conversant with. This means you will have more ideas to write about. This is even more so if you are a blogger. For your blog to grow you need to keep on coming up with more and more fresh content everyday. If you can't do this you are unlikely to get lots of readers, leave alone making money online.
Another thing you need to learn is that patience pays. It takes lots of time for your online business to start making you money. Think of it as an investment. Something that will be making you a small fortune a year to come. People start their ventures online expecting to make a pile by the first month. When this fails to happen they slowly start to lose the energy needed to keep on coming with new exciting ideas. Slowly they stop writing as many articles as they used to (supposing you have a blog). You traffic reduces and soon only your friends visit your site. Just to be nice. Making money online takes time. Always remember that.
If you have a blog, remember to value your readers and reply to their comments, clarify things that need to be clarified and generally make them feel appreciated. This way they are more likely to remain loyal to your blog and even refer more people to it.
By following this simple steps you will realize that you can easily make some good money online.
