The other day I was thinking the most important educational start-up point for a beginner who wants to make money online. As the experts rightly say, you must have your own website or blog.
Well, having a blog is very easy. But it hs its own pains. You are never going to become its owner unless it is on your own domain and space. Web-site is just like show-case of your product or services. You will have to make changes, amendments, addition of content every other day, one a week or fortnight. It is not such a thing that you set up and forget. As per search engine rules, you have to keep it fresh by adding content to get good ranking.
I cannot stress enough, even if you have your own blog, learning web designing is very crucial to online success. What is you get a book and online material where you can build your own website easily written by the industry expert Shelly Lowery, who knows pains of online marketers. This book has been compiled especially keeping in view the requirements of affiliate marketers and other home based business marketers.
If you are a beginner, or an intermediate marketer, how long you will go on shelling hard earned money to web designers. The only solution is LEARN WEB DESIGNING yourself so that you can manage your website properly according to your whims and wishes. When you know web designing and ftp, you can make few changes and upload the file in minutes. It really takes minutes.
Here is the link for web design mastery you may like to have a look.

Greatest Flaw in Email Marketing System
One of my friend told me tat that he has been receiving emails from a marketer for over an year. First few mails that he received were good content, personalised like that they are really helping him. After providing some information for a few day, the marketer started shooting him product messages.
My friend informed me that he was still under dark to start an online business. He has yet not understood the mystery of starting an online business, how things work online. He still receives autoresponder emails continuously but nothing clicks in his mind My friends says to me that all these emails are useless for me. While intermediate marketers are more or less wasting their bandwidth and time, may be even little time they spent in creating the auto messages for autoresponder, but most importantly they lose good leads.
As the time passed, there was no option left with my friend but to trash the messages and move on to the next one. Marketers can argue that the subscriber has not seriously heeded the messages and advanced methods and/or did not spend money. But how unless a subscriber or the prospect has gained confidence enough in a scheme that he can spend money. This is happening on the internet every day.
Those who really want to part with their secrets, really ask for big money. And those who have no secrets, keep sending autoresplnder messages, which becomes a useless exercise.
The Lesson Learnt:
Provide the prospect with real information that will ignite his thought process and force him to take action.

What Is Holding You from Starting Internet Business?

You can take benefit of Social Web only when you have good products or service and experiences to share with peers. Interaction with peers will not be of much value if you are not already knowledgeable about your subject.

It is for this reason that gurus generally advise making a peer group where you can exchange ideas and every gets benefited with interaction.
If you rely on freebies, you have to compromise on several counts and restrictions. This would mean you are not able to expand and express yourself freely. Therefore, try to resist habit of freebies. Free stuff in the long run causes information overload and confusion. It is often difficult to distinguish between good or bad stuff.
