What Do You Think Will Be Of The Most Help To You To Make Decent Money From A Home-Based Business?

I had a question asked of me today and it was this - That since they joined it seemed to them that only few members are making serious money online. Why?

This blog is my extended reply to that member and all the others who would like to know the WHY?

Everyday people are searching the net hoping to find a magic way to make money online. Only few are actually making serious amounts of money online and the rest are struggling. Too much information is the main cause because its hard to weed out most of the trash on the net.

There are tons of ways to make money online but nothing matters if you don't know how to work it yourself. You must learn to master a few simple skills and knowledge. I see it every day within WA and elsewhere and amazingly, I would say that about 70% of folks that are trying to make money online are missing out from the power of the Internet.

Most people believe that your ability to drive traffic to your site will determine your success. Although to a certain extent this is so, its not strictly true and here's why.

Let's say I own two site's selling the same product. Site A generates 1,000+ visitors a day and site B generates only 200+ a day. At the end of the month, site B earns me way more money than site A. Why is that? What's wrong with this scenario?

I'm not saying that driving traffic to your site is not important but why waste time and effort generating lots of traffic but your site just isn't making a sale for you? You see, if you want to make money online you must know how to tap the power of the Internet.

You must implement 3 main things carefully.

1. make sure your product or service sells itself

2. Your website should be a strong and powerful sales page

3. Then you can drive as much traffic as you can to your site

1. A product that can be delivered instantly after the customer orders takes maximum advantage of the Internet and the customers desire for immediate gratification. We all want it now. And when we know we are going to get it now - we are much more likely to place the order.

That's why information and software products are the hottest selling products on the net today. You can create your own digital product or sell other people's product as an affiliate.

2. Your website should be a strong and powerful sales/landing page

A Website goes for the sale right then. It is exciting, clear and direct. It gets right to the benefits - what the customer will get when they order.

Avoid trying to build a home page with hundreds of links all over it. If you are seeking to make money online, don't build a home... Build a "Direct Response Web Site" that makes an offer I can't refuse and gives an easy, fast way to order. Then you will make money online. You will be able to make money online even from small amounts of traffic.

3. Then you can drive as much traffic as you can to your site

The 3rd ingredient is Traffic! The more you generate the more money you make online. This is where you should spend most of your time. There are tons of ways to drive traffic to your site. To put your site in front millions of hungry buyers almost instantly, Google Adwords is the obvious choice. I disagree and much prefer a great Landing Page.

That's it folks. Those 3 ingredients are the key to home business success.

If you have any more advice to pass on to your fellow members then please do so via a comment below.

Enjoy your day.

Hey buddy

Sales are ver ver slow I am afraid but that does not bother me as I am enjoying my life here in the village and at the week end I will be finally setting up my music room !!!

Well done you but music rooms come at a price as well so don't forget your online business to pay some of the cost.
Have a good one.

Maybe you can help me out, Robert.
On my latest blog here on WA, I asked for some feedback.

Finally found a way to go, and I really like the compliments, but what I really need is feedback for this idea!

I feel this would finally get me going-in the right direction!!

Thanks so much in Advance,
