These are the top ten ways to NOT Make Money online. If you want your online money making business to fail, then follow these 10 easy steps

  1. Spend all your time browsing and none of your time making sites. (That means stop reading this and go and create a new SITE)
  2. Only make one site (the best affiliates have hundreds of active sites)
  3. Only stick to one niche - (need to expand far and wide)
  4. Spend all your time buying and reading eBooks (there is alot of good info in eBooks, but the fact is that if these methods were really working as claimed, then the author would have better things to do than slang eBooks on CB -most of this info can be found for free by digging a bit as well. )
  5. Give up your niche/secrets (with relation to #4 - if you found something that really works, don't tell anybody, because they will all copy it and then it will no longer be effective)

  6. Go crazy on PPC. (Playing PPC is alot like educated gambling. If you don't know what you are doing, you can lose a lot very fast. Take PPC one step at a time.)
  7. Be Afraid to invest (If there is something good or necessary, it may cost you money. You will need Quality Web Hosting so might as well get it sooner or later)
  8. Not be persistent (Good Niches take weeks, months and more to develop. If you are starting a blog, for instance force yourself to write at least one post a day. It might not seem like much at first, but after 2 months you will have 60 quality posts up)
  9. Forget to Market. (In a perfect world, the best content will bring all the traffic. Unfortunately this world is flawed and the best content will sometimes get you traffic if you can get the snowball started. For every hour spent writing -spend one marketing)
  10. Be Satisfied. (So you are making $50 a day. So what that is not enough. Now push it to $100, then $1000. Never stop creating.) NEVER.

    Actually selecting a right niche and sticking to it is not a BAD idea. The niche should have the ability to expand..

    By your logic, your adrite arbitrage post is garbage, as if you are making money that way, you wouldn’t have written a post about it.
