Map to Making Money
When people tell you they want to make money on the web, often they will say it with a sense of self-importance. They see themselves as the next Mark Zuckerberg, or as some genius entrepreneur and as such, they construct some elaborate business plan or some insane ground-breaking app that they think will change the world and they get to work.
While this all sounds great when they tell themselves it though, the reality is that this is a completely misguided way to go about making money as an internet entrepreneur.
Making Money: Normally Very Dull
Creating the next Facebook or Flappy Birds might sound very exciting but this should be your first clue that something is wrong. Normally making money isn’t exciting. Normally you don’t get paid to do things you love doing. Normally, making money is dull.
Meanwhile, if you think you’re the next Mark Zuckerberg, you’re probably not. Even Mark Zuckerberg never thought he was the next Mark Zuckerberg. Instead, you’re more likely to be what the industry calls a ‘wantrepreneur’.
So how do you go about making money online?
Often it’s very simple: find a product that is selling very well and start selling it as well as an affiliate. Or better yet, find a product that is selling very well and emulate it. If you can recycle the exact marketing materials, even better.
This should be a product that targets a small and clear niche/demographic and it should aim to solve a very straightforward problem for them. This is easy to market and it is easy to sell.
It’s not exciting and it essentially amounts to copying and pasting. But if it’s proven to work, then why would you do anything else? Making money using search engine marketing doesn’t mean changing the world – most often the two do not go hand in hand.-
