false expectations - Horne Isle Productions - Internet Marketing Tutorials

If you've heard that you can make BIG money on the Internet, it's true. You can. Will you make it immediately? While some people appear to have done so overnight, the truth is that they have gathered those skills over time until, one day, it all came together for them. If you think that all you have to do to make money on the Internet is to put up a website and wait for people to show up, you have a set of false expectations that are completely unrealistic. Here are the three biggest misconceptions to Internet marketing that will only lead to disappointment if they’re not tempered with some common sense. YOU CAN QUIT YOUR JOB WHEN YOU FIRST START If you have a job, keep it. Internet marketing is best learned as a side business until it becomes more profitable. Unless you are independently wealthy, you are going to want some steady source of income while you get more real life experience with the Internet and with making money online. Set some monetary goals, but don't make them so outlandish that they demoralize you instead of inspire you. Do you want to make an extra $500/month? If so, do you have a strategy planned to make that income. Once you reach a goal, increase it. At the point you're making what your job offers you, quit! Then, you are at the crux of learning how to zoom way past the small amount of money that your job offers. DOESN’T TAKE MUCH TIME TO LEARN Internet marketing is an exciting field to learn, and if you hitch it to your passion, it will seem like fun learning and not like homework. However, if you think that all you have to do is to learn how to put up a blog, that's just the bare minimum. You will have to learn how to get traffic to the blog and then have the right offers to create income from the blog. It's not just the technical aspects of setting up a website that take time to learn. It's the art of marketing online, which is even more important, that will take some time to learn. Expect that there is some work and time involved, and don't be discouraged if at first you don't make a single penny and spend a few weeks simply learning the ropes. BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME This might have been true five years ago, but today, the Internet is flooded with competing sites. Don't expect that you can just put up a blog or site and people will flock to it. More than likely, you'll start off with one or two visitors a day, and then you'll have to take action to attract traffic back to the site. That's where learning the art of marketing starts.
