If you’re looking to improve as an internet marketer and you use the internet for finding internet marketing strategies and tips, you will find more information than you’ll ever have time to read or use. Some of the advice you’ll find is great but truthfully a lot of it is completely worthless for actually making money online. And that’s what you are trying to do, right? Here are a couple helpful pieces of advice to help you succeed as an internet marketer…
The first piece of advice for you as an internet marketer is to keep a positive attitude and always know in your mind that you will achieve success no matter what! Your attitude towards your internet marketing business is very important. In fact, your attitude is possibly the number one key to becoming successful. You want to always have a positive attitude even in failure. You will fail at times but handling them positively and learning from them is important. You must believe in what you’re doing. So, keep a positive attitude and you will be successful with your internet marketing business.
Another piece of great advice for internet marketers is to work hard, work smart and take action on the things you learn. Most of all, don’t be fooled into thinking you can make money online without doing any work. That won’t happen! In order to be a successful internet marketer, you will have to work very hard and learn a lot. Not only that but you’ll also have to work smart. That means spending your time working on the strategies that will help your internet marketing business move forward and increase your profits. That’s called working smart and it’s just as important as working hard.
As an internet marketer there’s a lot of advice you will need to follow in order to be successful and a lot of advice that you will need to ignore in order to be successful. You must learn to differentiate between the two. Start out by always keeping a positive attitude, working hard and working smart. Do this and you will be on your way to a successful internet marketing business.

Do you want to explode your internet marketing business profits? Stupid question, I know! While there are many things you need to do well in order to be successful with internet marketing, there is one simple thing that can really help you increase your internet marketing profits. That one thing is to simply seek feedback from your customers after they purchase something from you or contact them to offer help after they join a business opportunity under you.
Obviously the fastest way to increase your internet marketing business profits is to get as many people as possible buying from you. That is obvious. But what isn’t quite so obvious is the need for internet marketers to make their existing customers happy so that they become repeat customers. Then when you get new customers, your customer base will grow much more quickly. As the number of customers grows, so too will your profits.
The way to keep your customers happy so that they’ll continue to buy things from you is to send them an email after they buy something from you. In the email thank them for the purchase and ask them for feedback about what they bought. This one simple act will explode your internet marketing business profits because it will make your customers feel like you care about them and it will also allow you to improve your business based on the feedback you get.
So, after someone buys something from you and becomes a customer of yours, be sure to send them an email asking them what they think of their purchase and if they need anything else. To help encourage them to provide you with feedback you could even offer to give them a free gift. This one simple act of sending a follow-up email to your customers will explode your internet marketing profits and help grow your business exponentially.

If you work very hard at learning how to make money online then you will achieve internet marketing success as long as you don’t give up. Internet marketing success does take time but it will eventually come to you if you really try. But if you want to succeed faster then there are some simple things you can do. Here are a few ways to help you find internet marketing success much more quickly…
1) Find a Good Mentor
A super way to put your internet marketing efforts on the fast-track is to get a mentor to help you out. A mentor is someone who has already done all the things you are trying to do and will work with you and show you how to make money online. You just have to make sure you find the right mentor. Obviously you want to choose someone who is already a successful internet marketer and someone who can show you how to be successful too. But more than this, you also want to choose a mentor who you are compatible and comfortable with as well as someone you can trust.
2) Work 30 More Minutes Per Day
If you can find just 30 more minutes every day to put in focused work on your online business it will work wonders. That doesn’t sound like a long time and it isn’t. However, that extra time can really help you move closer to internet marketing success. An extra half hour every day will equal 15 extra hours – about 2 extra days of work – each and every month. Spread out over a year that’s about an extra month’s worth of work. Looking at it this way will show you how you can be successful faster with just an extra 30 minutes of work every day.
3) Utilize Joint Ventures
One of the biggest ways that the top internet marketers seem to succeed so easily is because they forum joint ventures with each other. Basically a joint venture is when you get other people to help you sell and/or market what you’re selling in exchange for those people getting something from you in return. Whenever you have something to sell you should try to form quality joint venture partnerships with successful internet marketers.
If you do the three simple things listed above, you will build your online business and find internet marketing success much faster.

Freelance Superstar Review
Writing is a skill that is very high in demand these days and will continue to be that way for a very long time. The reason is mainly because internet marketers and other website owners need content for their sites or for marketing purposes. They don’t always have the time, skills, or desire to write it themselves so they are willing to pay someone else to do it for them. Therefore, you can make money online as a freelance writer if you know how.
Most people don’t know how to properly start a freelance writing business, or succeed at it once they do get it started. For that reason I am recommending a freelance writing guide called “Freelance Superstar” by Monika Mundell and Gobala Krishnan. I have it and I can tell you that it’s a complete guide to get started making money as a freelance writer. I learned a lot about the business from it and I already have some experience in freelancing.

This is a high quality product with a ton of value for the money. It’s definitely something that anyone who has ever even thought about doing freelance writing should check out. You can make money as a freelance writer but it’s not nearly as simple as just joining some freelance website and waiting for the clients to roll in, or bidding on a couple jobs and getting them. There’s a lot to more to it if you want to be successful at it, and this product will teach you everything you need to know.
That’s why I give Freelance Superstar my highest recommendation for producing a well-written, clear and straightforward guide that almost anyone can understand and actually use.

Before I start, here are a few quick facts about this money making method:
Work involved = Very little
Time it takes = Not much
Experience needed = Almost none
Cost to get started = Minimal
This is no secret or anything like that; there are plenty of internet marketers and other people doing it. But I figured I would post it here for those of you who don’t know about it.
It is certainly one of the quickest and easiest ways to make money online that I have ever found. And anyone can do it as long as you have a little money to start with and a basic knowledge of domains and websites.
Ok, let’s get to it…
To start you’ll need to buy at least one domain with a minimum of PR2 but the higher the PR, the better. You can find lots of cheap domains for sale that will work perfectly for this by browsing through the Digitalpoint forums domain sales section.
It’s not very difficult to find PR3 domains for less than $50 and sometimes you’ll even find PR4 domains for around that price. In fact, just today I bought a valid PR3 domain that is over three years old for only $39 and it had existing content with it! And another for only $36 that is highly brandable and will be super easy to sell links on.
Once you have the domain all you have to do is write up a little content for it to put up as a website. You can even use PLR content or just find a few articles in a directory and rewrite them to be completely original. It’s easiest if you just put all the content up as one long home page and have a single page site, but you can also start a blog or multiple page site on the domain if you want. If you buy a generic domain your content can be about pretty much anything you want. If the domain already has an implied niche then just put up content about that. It doesn’t really matter too much because you can usually work in content related to almost anything that someone wants to buy a link for, and there are plenty of people wanting links for all sorts of different niches.
Now, for the part that you will actually make money from…
You will be selling links on this new “website” you just built. This is pretty easy to do because there are a TON of people out there looking for links to their sites. There are also plenty of places where you can advertise that you are selling links. Three of the most popular are the link sales section of the digitalpoint forum, the advertising space for sale section of the sitepoint marketplace, and the warrior links section of the warrior forum.
Make sure you take a look at several ads on each of the sites to get an idea of the protocol for posting them before you put yours up. They are all pretty easy and basically the same on each site but you want to make sure you are doing it right. I would tell you how in this post but it’s already long enough and it will probably be easier for you to see for yourself at each individual marketplace anyway.
Also, in case you are wondering, I don’t recommend using websites you already have with good PageRank for this unless you don’t really care about them or don’t want them anymore. The reason is mainly because they could be penalized for selling links on them. Plus you don’t want a bunch of random links on your precious sites.
Pretty much all you need to do this is a cheap hosting service that allows unlimited domains on one account. I recommend Hostgator if you don’t already have a host.
WARNING: Be careful when buying domains because some people will fake the PR, which is very easy to do, so you have to make sure the PR is valid before buying the domain. Here are some ways to check it out…
* One good way to check if it’s valid or not is to use the Google “info” search. Just type info:thedomainname.com into Google to check it. If the site you are checking comes up in the results the PR is probably valid. However, if a different site comes up then it’s almost certainly fake PR being redirected from that site, so don’t buy it!
* Another simple way is to check how many backlinks the site has using Yahoo site explorer. Just type link:thedomainname.com into Yahoo and see how many inlinks it has. If it has none (or very few) then it shouldn’t have a high pagerank. This isn’t the best way to check though because a site can have a PR3 or even higher without a lot of backlinks if the ones it does have are strong.
* You can also use a site like http://checkpagerank.net to check it for you. I recommend doing all of these before purchasing just to be sure.
You might wonder why you shouldn’t just develop the domains you buy into money making websites since they already have a jumpstart with existing PR and backlinks, instead of selling links? There’s nothing wrong with doing that and it’s certainly an option. I actually do both depending on the domain and my intentions for buying it from the beginning. But if you want to quickly and easily make money from the domain then links sales are most likely your best option.
Let’s say you buy a domain for $50 and it takes you two hours to do all the stuff written above, and I doubt it will even take you that long. If you sell 10 links on the site for $25 each, you will make $200 profit after you subtract the cost of the domain. Do this with 100 domains and you just make yourself a cool $20,000 for very little work or time invested.
That’s basically all there is to it. Now get out there and make some money!
