As a new internet marketer or even one who has tried your hand at it but has been singularly unsuccessful here are some first straight forward and uncomplicated steps to follow towards creating an action plan that is easy to work on.

The first step is to check whether you have the equipment such as a computer and access to the internet readily available. This business is not going to work if you depend on the internet café down the road. You will need to spend every available minute working this business. One hour in the library using a computer is just not going to cut it.

Your second step is to honestly look at the commitments that you have. Do you really have time for this? If you already work a full time job and have small children the chances that you will have serious amounts of time to spend on an internet marketing project are fairly remote. That is if you want to still have time to sleep!

If you have both the equipment and feel confident that you have the time to spend on this then start out having a look at what hobbies, skills and, yes, passions you have that you could share with other people.

This could be anything. If you love following celebrities and enjoy reading the tabloids starting a blog commenting on celebrities and their activities could be for you. Perez Hilton is one such example of a very successful online business that only comments on celebs.

It’s easy to think that you can maybe get a slice of that spending. Even if it is a tiny bit of the pie. There is no reason why you shouldn’t and there is certainly enough free and reasonably priced information available online to provide you with all the help you need.

What the internet provides you with, besides low set-up costs and cheap advertising is also a marketplace that is open 24hrs/7 days a week. The internet shops never close their doors. The customers never stop buying. As the American customers go to sleep the Chinese and Australians wake up. It’s a non-stop trade.

This is such a hot topic right now that it’s being talked about everywhere and not only on the internet. Regrettably it is often associated with people who show off with a picture of themselves clutching an oversized Google cheque that shows hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of earnings – for one month!

This kind of ill-gotten publicity has given internet marketing a bad name. It has resulted in an old-fashioned gold rush where many people are bringing their shovels and sieves and are hoping to pan near somebody who has already found the motherload.

In typical Wild West style the snake oil sales people are out there offering instant cures. They promise untold riches in three easy steps if you follow their lead. They tell you it’s all about easy easy easy, success is guaranteed, money will flood in within a few days, no more worries. Trust us. Pay us.

This entire hype has resulted in many people running around on the internet just like headless chicken do in a farmyard. They jump from one ‘big’ solution to the next. None of them are working for them. It’s easy to understand why. The fundamental principles of marketing are being ignored.
