Are You Decisive? If you're not, it going to be a long, disappointing road. I have been online pursuing opportunities now for some time now.
And you know what? I've made a lot of decisions along the way.
Some of those decisions were the right ones, but many were also the wrong ones.
The decisions we make define us.
There are a lot of opportunities out there that will promise you riches beyond your wildest imaginations.
That's great! Except it's not that simple.
I don't care what it is, it will take hard work, commitment and Decisions...
As an example, let's say you decide your opportunity is to set up a website to sell golden widgets.
How would you approach this. Would you just set up a site and boom the checks will start rolling in!?
No. First you have decide how the website is going to be set up. Are you going to build it yourself?
If so, what's best for your website? Do you want it set it up in PHP or do you want to use CSS?
What editor will you use? Front Page? Or are you going to decide to hire someone to build it for you?
How will you lay it out? Do you have a logo? Do you need one? What color scheme are you going to use?
Do you know the effect of color on your visitors? How do you decide?
What eCommerce solution is best for you? Consider your monthly volume.
If it is going to be over $1,000, a merchant account is usually a good choice.
You may consider Paypal in conjunction with a merchant account, it just got better by making it open to over 5 new countries Nigeria being one of them as this country has a lot of prospects, despite the challenges it's facing.
If you do consider a merchant account, you also need to look into electronic payment gateways.
Then you have to market the products... Are you going to use pop-ups?
Are you going to advertise with Adwords, Banners, E-zines...
What's my Point!? You are going to have to make the right decisions for your business.
There are a lot of steps from getting an idea to building the proper platform for the idea and executing it. Your decisions will ultimately lead to an end result.
Did it work? Are you making money?... or is it a do over?
When you decide to pursue an opportunity, that is the decision that will trigger the rest of them.
You must learn to decide. Indecision will find you broke and discouraged..
There is a lot of potentials online.
The best way to insure your success is to make sure you create multiple streams of income.
Doing a combination of things can really help.
Having a newsletter will allow you to capture visitors and down the road convert them to a sale.
Not everyone buys on the first visit to your website.
Adsense is another good source of income.
You have to have some good traffic to make a lot of money, but I was surprised when I started using it as a strategy throughout my websites.
Hey, even if its another 30, 40 or 50 dollars a month, it can pay some of your expenses.
Submitting to directories is a great way to get the Search Engines to take notice.
I do not recommend too much submissions to Search Engines anymore.
You can get crawled by the Search Engine Spider much quicker by getting some links coming into your website.
Search engine spiders follow links off of websites.
So if a link to your website is on another site that gets spidered regularly, you're all set!
Writing articles can get you a little traffic rolling as well.
And it's a great way to establish yourself as an expert in your field.
The inbound links also help with your position in the Search Engine Results Pages (SERPS).
Everyone can make a living online. It's takes a lot of hard work sometimes.
Many people fail before they find good income, but it is possible for everyone.
Keep learning. I learn something new everyday. I hang out in forums, read articles, eBooks etc...
I'm continually soaking up information. You have to to keep up with your competition.
Just go out there and do it; I'll see you at the top!
Best wishes.
