Which way should I go?

I've been doing nothing but lurk the forums for the past few weeks learning everything I could. There are so many options I know, but it's hard to pick one and go with it. I tried promoting clickbank products but that didn't work at all.

I started looking at CPA but they're all tricky to get into, and even if I get into a network, where would I promote their stuff? I made a few blogs trying to promote clickbank things, but driving traffic to them isn't as easy as it sounded.

I need someone with experience in this to tell me to go in a certain direction that will almost definitely provide success if done right, so that I can at least start seeing some profits and not get discouraged as I am now.

This question has been asked a million times on BHW, and the answer is still the same:

Find a method you're comfortable with and put down a lot of time into it.

Creating blogs, writing content, sales pages, building lists, building backlinks, promoting etc. It all takes time and money.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, you should be looking into a joint venture.

Also, stop reading so god damn much. Read an ebook a week or something.
My biggest hurdle was to stop reading and start understanding and utilizing.

Read the books. Research the methods. Do market analysis. Understand how and why the methods works.

I think the key is to not always use BHW as a way to generate ideas of things to do. Use BHW to support you in making your own ideas happen. Use BHW to research the specific methods and techniques that your own idea requires to get it done.

There are a ton of ways to make money online, and none of them are perfect for everyone. Some things work for some people, but not for others. You can pick a product with a high gravity rating on clickbank, but if you don't know how to market it and drive traffic, you won't make any money. Google nickstraffictricks. That guy has a ton of free info to help you get traffic, get indexed, and much more. I think I have his free guide from last year. Most of the info is still relevant. He charges like $7 or $10 for his new guide. Message me if you want the one from last year, and I can email it to you. Good Luck.
