Making a living online is not easy to do but it
\ncan be done. Here’s my story and what I did first…<\/b><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

No matter how long I do this web marketing stuff, it never fails to amaze me.
\nPerhaps, what sticks out the most, is the fact that people can actually make
\na living online. It is still a fairly new concept.<\/p>\n

We never know what life has in store for us, if you told me ten years ago
\nthat I would become a full-time web marketer with 9 or 10 websites I would
\nhave probably asked you: What’s a web site?<\/p>\n

Today, young people have grown up with the web and it has always been there
\nfor them. But older folks like me experienced the birth and growth of the
\nweb in the ’90s and have a fuller understanding of this new creature.<\/p>\n

I live in a very remote part of the world and if you go back 10 or 15 years,
\nthe whole concept of the Internet was totally foreign. We simply didn’t have
\naccess to this new world of computers, servers and wired connections. When we
\nfinally got web dial-up, it was extremely slow but we did become connected
\nand I started exploring this new world at full-throttle.<\/p>\n

Coming from a background in art and art education, I was blessed with some
\ngraphic design skills which proved very helpful when I started to create my
\nweb sites from scratch. As an artist, I was used to learning new techniques
\non my own which also helped me tackle the Internet. Those skills were greatly
\nneeded because I even had to learn how to write HTML code in order to create
\nthose sites, something I still do today, even though we have many software
\nprograms that can do it for you.<\/p>\n

Since I had to do all the coding myself, I kept my sites very simple and
\nstarted re-using templates of pages which proved successful. I believe one
\nof the keys to succeeding online is to find that one thing that works and
\nkeep duplicating the process. Once you have made that first dollar, just
\nkeep repeating the process until you make another dollar.<\/p>\n

Once you have created one site that’s bringing in a profit, design other
\nsites that do the same.<\/p>\n

Even though I have an art background, I don’t let fancy graphics or too much
\ndesign interfere with the main objective of my webpages – ranking high for
\nmy chosen keywords in all the major search engines. You must focus on those
\nkeyword rankings because that’s what will bring in the targeted traffic and
\nsales.
\n
\n
\nKeywords That Sell<\/b>
\n
\n
\nYou really have to find the keywords which produce the sales. This is easier
\nthan you think. One handy tool is from Microsoft of all places, but it has
\nproven very helpful, it’s called:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n
\nDetecting Online Commercial Intention
\n
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This tool will tell you if your site or keywords has economic potential
\non the web.<\/p>\n


\n
\nAnother Major Key For Me Was Google.<\/b>
\n
\n
\nTruth be told I didn’t really get anywhere until my keywords and sites
\nstarted ranking high in Google. Like I have told you a million times,
\nI have no magic formula – just steady article writing and promotion,
\nplus creating valuable content which web users need and want. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These simple techniques can work for anyone. I recently helped my brother
\nset up sites and a year & half in – his sites are selling something every day.
\nThese sales numbers are only small but all he has to do is keep repeating
\nwhat he’s doing and the revenue will increase. If you’re curious, here is
\none of his sites: Blu-ray Dvd Players<\/p>\n

Like me, for him Google is also the key, getting those high “first page”
\nrankings will bring in the traffic and sales. And like me, he started with
\nthe basics, concentrating on Google keywords and starting with this simple:<\/p>\n


\n
\nGoogle Keyword Tool
\n
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Once you get started with this online marketing stuff, it can become addictive,
\nbut addictive in a good way. Learning how to make extra money in your spare time
\nis never really a bad thing. Working full-time on the web and from the comfort
\nof your home is not a bad thing. Most of all, being your own boss and answering
\nto no one is a very good thing. There is no life like it.<\/p>\n

Like I said at the beginning, making a living from the web will totally amaze you.
\nWell, at least it amazed me, especially when you’re doing other things and then
\nyou check your stats to discover you have made money. Once your sites and marketing
\nare set up, it runs automatically 24\/7, earning you revenue whether you’re
\nactually working at it or you’re on vacation.
\n
\n
\nOr doing anything which humans can possibly do…<\/b>
\n
\n
\nThat part still puts a smile on my face every time… that and the fact because
\nit’s web based, I can work and live just about anywhere I want. That sense of
\ntotal freedom can’t be matched unless you win the lotto or something.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
