Have you ever tried to build a jigsaw without the box lid with the picture, difficult isn’t it. What about trying to build it and finding a few random pieces are missing.

On the surface Internet Marketing looks easy, In fact most marketers make it look very easy.. “buy this great product for only $997 and you’ll make $100,000 a month “… Wake up and smell the coffee it’s not going to happen.

The only person making money from that offer will be the marketer and his selected friends in the “Golden Triangle ” Who promote it. (Thanks to Peter in the WPG forum for that analagy.. Much better than the “Circle jerk” one I used to use!!)

Sure I can tell you to use Clickbank or Adsense but that doesn’t give you the whole picture. You could biuld the perfect site in a great niche, with lots of traffic and get to #1 in google but if the adsense ads only cost 5 cents or the clickbank products has a terrible sales page then you aren’t going to make money no matter how hard you try.

Get Internet marketing right and you can make a really good living mby working a few hours a week get it wrong and you will be the one of the many people in forums who say internet marketing doesn’t work.

Don’t try to make Internet marketing work on your own, there are lots of people out there who are successful even if it’s only making 40 sales from amazon every month or 10 Clickbank sales they have a piece of the jigsaw seek them out and listen to what they have to tell you.

Obviously I think the WordPress Goldmine forum is the best place for this but even if you don’t join us find another group of like minded people who don’t have an ulterior motive and who are happy to share their pieces of the jigsaw.

Remember this is the last time that you will be able to join WordPress Goldmine for a one time payment.. from Monday it will be a monthly payment… why? Because the information in the forum is worth it! You won’t find any forum online where the members happily share so much information.

This has all been brought on by the February Step by Step I did in The WordPress goldmine Forum. Over 14 days I researched a niche and built a site and did some very simple promotion. I created the videos over 14 days but the actual time taken to research build and promote the site was under 3 hours.  Yes a whole 3 hours of my life.

I did nothing fancy just kept it simple. At the end of february In the last video I monetized the site. 1 month later the site has earned me over $200.  I’ll repeat that again $200 for a site that took me 3 hours.

I have several clickbank accounts which I  use to target different niches. At the beginning of March one account was averaging about $90 per week. During the month I wrote or oursourced about 20 articles which have been submitted. The result is that account has earned almost $700 this week and $600 last week.

Once again there was nothing fancy involved just keeping to the basics and keeping it simple.

No one is ever going to write an ebook that contains the secret to internet marketing as it wouldn’t even fill up one line of an ebook….  Traffic + Monetization = Income.   (That noise is the sound of me shooting myself in the Foot)

If you look at the list of recent ezine articles I have published (see the list in the sidebar) you’ll see one titled “WordPress Blogs and Articles – The Quickest and Cheapest Way to Make Money Online”

It contains a 5 step process to making your first $100 online why not try it this month (then obviously take the money you earned and spend some of it on buying wordpress goldmine!!  )

So come on try something simple, you’ll save time, make money and prove to yourself that internet marketing really does work.
