Working Your A$$ Off to Make an Online Dime?

By Mike Considine

Seems that everywhere you look there is someone ready to sell you the next best business making money online opportunity, but do any of them really work?

The answer to that question is yes and no… You see 95% of the people that try to make money online will never make a dime. 3% might be lucky enough to break even and the remaining 2% range anywhere from making a few bucks profit to a six figure + income. So for those people that make up the 2% the answer is yes, but for the hundreds of thousands of people that make up the 98% the answer is obviously no.

The reasons people fail are as numerous as the number of online money making ideas, but whose fault is it when you fail and how do you beat the odds?

Well contrary to what you might have been told the Internet is not a level playing field. The similarity between you and the Internet guru trying to sell you the best technique to your quick online riches is probably just two things… You both breathe air and you both have an Internet connection. Don’t get me wrong you could have the same drive and determination that they have, and you might be one of the 2% that beats the odds if you’re willing to spend the money and the time to find out.

If you do have an online money making idea, then all you need to do is figure out which gurus technique will work for you. The problem you will run into is no one strategy is the total answer to making money online. One might teach you everything you need to know about Keyword research, but lacks information on how best to drive traffic to your site. Another might be right on the money on how to build a niche mini-site but fails to take into consideration the new fears of using duplicate content on your site. What about the conflicting statements found on different gurus sites about blog and ping. One says it’s dead and the other is selling you a software program and says he is still making tons of money using this technique.

So the first thing you need to decide is, are you ready and willing to invest thousands of dollars and thousands of hours to learn what is working today? Then are you willing to continue to invest thousands more on continues education and to replace the strategies that stop working?

If your answer to either of those questions is no that doesn't mean your dream is over. You just need to look for another way to be part of the ball game without needing to learn how to be the quarterback. You might want to take a look at a new concept called Affiliate Marketing Co-op.
