This is it. Nothing else works.

So true! I've been there too..
And the very first time I started making money online, was the day I started selling SERVICES... Yeah, a REAL business, offering REAL services to REAL people.
There's no secret.

Great advice and you said all the point perfectly. I hope all of the newbie here will be benefited by reading it completely.

Thank tou so much for your motivation words

Thank you so much for this post man! I REALLY needed to hear this.

I'm following the project 24 method for a passive earning website. After writing 11 1200-1500 word articles, I just find my niche boring to write about. I just feel like writing is not the path for me.

I already kind of knew this because I wrote meditation & yoga articles on Fiverr as well as amazon product descriptions. I just hated writing, it just wasn't fun for me.

But, I discovered project 24 by income school and got all excited. It seemed to really be a proven method...and that's because, well, it is if you put in the work.

Following their method I started to gain traction. I'm at about 800 page views per month. Because I don't want to write, I've hired out the writing to somebody here on BHW.

I'm at the part where I need to publish 9 more 2500 word posts and then 10 more 3500 word posts.
I'm only paying $2 per 500 words as that's all I'm willing to invest.

On the side, I make passive income from Fiverr, around $100 per month. I'm using that money to fund my blogging project.

I came here to check out the money making section like you said not to. Even though my blog is proving to work, I just didn't know what else to do with it because I'm not writing the articles.

I commit to halting my horses and sticking with focusing on driving traffic to my blog. I already started a udemy course on Twitter marketing, so I should follow through on that. I chose twitter marketing because Twitter seems to be the best referal traffic for my blog.

So, I'll do the course and master what the course has to teach me. That will give me something to do every day so I feel productive.

Then, I can learn about different promotional methods like facebook and what not.

I'm committing to focusing on my blog because it's actually proving to work. I just have to have patience.

Thank you so much for the post man! I finally feel like I actually am working towards something greater even though I'm not seeing and dollars yet.

I like when you said "Don't make the goal about making money, make it instead about being the best at that thing". Well, I'm going to do just that! I'm going to be the best at driving free traffic to my blog through very unheard of methods I discover through YouTube that are straight fire (caffinatedblogger). I'm going to be the best in my niche : ) I can do this shit! Just follow the process and look at my reality...my reality is...IT'S WORKING because I'm getting organic traffic : ).

This is a good written post

This thread shoule be made a "Sticky" thread!

The OP nailed it.

To success is not easy, but it's extremely simple.
Sticking to ONE thing until it grows.

However, most people just don't believe it and keep searching for one after another magic.
I believe in order to make the first $1 online, you should grind at one ONE thing as least 3 months, or 6 months if working in a 9-to-5 job at the same time.

Here's a funny story.
10 frogs said they wanted to climb the Eiffel Tower, so they started doing it.
3 out of those 10 frogs said, "It's too dangerous.", so they gave up at the 10-meter high.
then, 3 out of the rest 7 frogs said, "The wind is too strong!", so they gave up at the 100-meter high.
then, 3 out of the rest 4 frog said, "We are not gonna make it!", so they gave up at the 200-meter high.

Only 1 frog made to the tip, which is 324-meter high.
And the reason why the frog could do that was because it is deaf.
It just didn't listen to what other frog said and only keep focusing on the ONE thing, the Eiffel Tower. That's how it made to the tip.


We are living in a clutter world. Making money opportunities seem endless, and people are confused by that.
Most people, including the former me, would try something for weeks then, when suddenly see some Facebook or YouTube gurus talk about "new business opportunity", they give up and jump to another thing.

They keep repeating the cycle for a long time, in fact, some people may never get away from that in their entire lives.

Don't make things complicate, just simply stick to ONE thing, you'll see your success eventually.

This is less a method, more of a motivational speech.

Yes. But a BLOODY good one.

Thank you.

8 years ago I bought a bass guitar. Couldn't even hold it. Now I'm playing in a couple of bands.

Point is, I didn't get good at bass guitar by reading about bass guitar, or trying out trumpet, sax, trinagle, flute and harpsichord at the same time.

I just played the bass. Every day. Still do

You said it all bro ! I can remember back then when I first started blogging ! My friend and I were doing for fun and other were doing for the quick money ! But later after we wear earning our fun and those others are not confused about life or how to meet up with us

I've said the same thing forever... You won't get anywhere with the shiny object syndrome. Pick one thing, and keep going till it works. Find ways to adapt, change, overcome, and persevere and it WILL work.

There's far more to be lost pulling the pin on a bad idea than sticking with it.

Like I said, you can make $100k/year with pretty much anything. There really isn't anything THAT bad that you're going to waste your time.

Worst case you learn a shit ton of skills and only make, $20k/year if you stick it out for a year or 2.

Compare that to someone who's 5 years online and still struggling to succeed.

People need to realize that you are NOT wasting your time by putting sustained effort into anything.

Not every business will make 7 or 8 figures, but $100k/year will change most people's lives unless they're already in a high paying job living in an expensive part of the US. But that's just madness when someone is making $350k/year and they think they are barely middle class.

Unless you're one of those guys that's been trying to sell his wacky invention for 10 years and has just re-mortgaged his home to try to make it succeed, you should stick with your business.

Bare in mind I'm talking about online business. If you expand into broader business, then yeah, there's some duff ideas that won't even make $1. But I assume most people aren't crazy inventors trying to create wacky products.

It's just sad when we try to hit the goldmine immediately as if it's magic!
It's not gonna work that way.
We have to keep on digging and digging patiently with perseverance.
I wish everyone who follows this advise huge success.
Love ya'all

This is a perfectly written post something a lot of people need to hear. Thank you

Im the first guy

I think who tries in this ways he must be successful but its difficult to be regular on it after facing huge difficulties. Lol

Op you really nailed it.

I got into IM about 2 years ago. I spent about the first 6 months trying to figure out where to start - social media, YouTube, website and ads, website and affiliate marketing, dropshipping, Amazon FBA, or a dozen other options. I would say I spent 6 months researching all of them trying to find the one that would best fit me.

Finally, I decided to go after affiliate marketing combined with ads. Instead of trying to do it all at once -build a website, get it to rank (backlinks, keyword research, etc), pick the right affiliate programs and so on. I took it one step at a time. I first learned to build a website in WordPress, got good at it. Then I learned to research content and select keywords, properly structure content and write it to the correct length. I learned how to build backlinks, use web 2.0's, build PBN's(lots of education here when done right), buy PBN links, figure out what links to use as diversification backlinks, regulate the link velocity and so on.

I made plenty of mistakes, learned what worked last week may no longer work as Google is constantly evolving. But I am at the point I can rank a site fairly easily. Notice I said easily not quickly? Those days are gone but you can still rank one easily if you do it correctly. I now have a few websites of my own that are ranking fairly well for the targeted keywords. Now I am ready to start monetizing them.

Over the course of the last year, I have picked up a few customers that have hired me to rank their businesses. I did not charge a lot because I wanted to use their websites as a way to help me learn more. Everything I have earned from them has gone back into growing and testing on my websites and PBNs. Or shall we say it was invested back into my education?

All of my clients have been very pleased. One client had me running Google ads and doing SEO. Last month he called me and asked me to stop the ads, his business could no longer handle all the work. He still has me doing SEO and this month his organic traffic has hit all-time highs and its 3 months before this business typically gets real busy.

So to your point, if I had changed course over the last 18 months I would still be trying to learn something, probably totally frustrated and not really be anywhere.

In sticking to 1 thing, the "thing" can be something very broad or more specific. Does this refer to sticking to one thing as a broad method like SEO/Affiliate Marketing, or is the recommendation more to just work on one website and not try to run more than one site?

1 year.

6 months if you're exceptional.

2 years if you're below average.

Anyone above 2 years isn't actually working. They're just pretending. It really is impossible to do 60 hours a week for a year and not at least reach $5k/mo with the ridiculous amount of things at our disposal now. There's click funnels, youtube ads, facebook ads, shopify, stripe, endless business tools and lots of high quality training products. It's never been easier.

Everyone always starts in SEO, which is one of the worst places to start in 2020. Great in 2010, but not now. If you've got no money and no experience SEO is an absolute hell realm and you'll struggle to make $100/mo after a year. There's very little you can do without money in SEO.

I wish there was someone who told me this 1 year ago ... I started an amazon Affiliate website with 3k invested so far mostly in content .... It's a complete failure ... averaging 60 visitors per month // 0 usd earned with over 60 articles .. i guess i underestimated the importance of backlinking ... Actually i can invest 500usd/month into a new venture .. i am definitely not giving up on IM ... if you were me , What would be your next step ? would you move into something that seems like a a better place to start for the next 2 years ? like dropshipping .. CPA marketing ..
I tought there weren't a lot of people who had the same thing happening to them ... yet i've met 3 other persons on the forum who are on the same boat ... After this experience i realised that i really don't know shit . IM is way more harder than these guru's make it seem to be .. And i won't stop until i figure out my way.
