Yes. I made a sale!

And it's because of ALL the things I learned here at Wealthy Affiliate.

I sold one of my internet-based companies today. It took us less than a year to "incubate" it and eventually exit. My team is ecstatic and far more richer today than yesterday. :)

I am here to let you know how you can do it too.

It starts with you creating a brand and building a website.

In order to do that more effectively, go through ALL the lessons here at WA. :)

I have been in the internet industry when it was still called "The New Economy" during the "dot-com boom". One of the pioneers in the industry. I love working and doing things in the background. You can say that I am like a hermit, averse to publicity.

Fortunately, I was able to cash in most of my stock options before the dot-com boom went bust, and I was able to make a hefty sum out of it.

I am telling all of these to INSPIRE you.

Now here it goes. How do you get rich online?

Here's the answer: FOCUS ON BUILDING INTERNET COMPANIES.

I'm not saying that a little sale here and there is nothing, on the contrary, what I am trying to impart to you good reader is that YOU CAN ALSO DO BETTER easily.

There is no "mysterious mojo" that makes us successful, I am just like you, a human being.

The internet is a "great equalizer", it has a way of leveling the playing field for a solopreneur (like you) and multinational companies.

What does Amazon, Google, Facebook and Twitter have in common? They are basically websites. Sure, they have special functionalities built into them, but at their core -- they are still just websites.
