1. Is it true
that people make money online?
It is surprising but this is top on the list of
questions most asked about making a living
online. People have heard about making money
online but they want to know if truly there is
money to be make online. The simple answer is
YES! People make money online legally and so can
YOU.
2.

NO. it is not a must to have a website to do
business online. If you have a functional email,
it is enough to start making money online. You
can make a living online without a website.
However once you start making money, go for your
own website.
3.
How long do I have to wait before I make money
online?
This depends solely on you. You can have all the
tools, secrets, resources etc. but unless you do
something with the, you’ll never make money and
your dream of making a living online will only
be a dream!
Depending on how smart and hard-working you are,
you can start making money in 5 to 7 days.
However, you must understand that internet
business like every other
business demands
patience as there are always ‘teething’
problems. This means that you be patient and run
your business for 3 to 6 months before worrying
about profits. This gives you time to perfect
your chosen business, develop a good marketing
plan and enables you to build a business can
make you money to fulfill your dream online.
4. How
much will it cost me to start an internet
business?
There is no specific answer to this question.
The cost of starting out depends on the kind of
business you choose; I know you can start an
internet business with nothing or as little as
$20. It all depends on what business model you
choose the scale you want to start out on, your
marketing and marketing strategy and the size of
your pocket.

How do I do business online?
Here are the basic steps which when understood
and put to good use can help you make a good
living online.
(a) Have a
product or service: This represents what
you’ll be offering online. If you offer nothing
and you are making money online, you are nothing
but a fraud. There must be something tangible
you’re offering either in form of a product or
service. The most important consideration when
choosing a product or service is that you must
ensure that it is an “in-demand” product.
Something that people would really love to have.
(b)
Market your product or service: this is
the point where many newbies miss it. To make
money online, you must be able to develop a
sound marketing plan. Once you miss a good
marketing plan, you can spend months and years
trying to get things to work and you will still
not make any money from your internet business.
I recommend that you do everything possible to
have a good marketing coach to help you develop
a unique marketing angle for the product you’re
trying to sell online. On the minimum learn
everyone going into internet marketing should
learn how to write ads, proposals and sale
letters. It is not just enough to start throwing
out your money in the name of doing internet
marketing. All your efforts must be targeted. If
you’re just starting out having a copy of
Sanders powerful ebook “” will kick start you in
this venture and will give you an insight into
how to make people buy from you and will help
you become a better marketer both online and
offline.
(c) Set up
way to collect your money: How do people pay
you for the product and services you offer? As
someone who is just starting out I don’t
recommend that you go for your own merchant
account right away. There are a lot of online
credit card processing services that will help
you do this for a token fee. Examples are
clickbank.com, ibill.com and paypal.com. a
simple search online will offer you a great
choice.
(d)
Deliver the product or service paid for:
this seals the deal. Once a client pays for a
product or service and you’ve confirmed the
payment, the next thing to do is to send the
product/service paid for. There are two options
for you here. If you sell a digitally delivered
product or service just send it as an email
attachment or have it uploaded somewhere on your
website so that your clients can download upon
payment. If the product is a physical product,
you’ll need to ship the product using a courier
service.

I don’t know much about the internet can I still
start out?
Yes, you can. Most of the top earners online
today knew absolutely nothing about making money
online when they first started out. i must
confess that I for one knew nothing when I
started out and even now still don’t know too
much about the internet and computers. The good
news is that you can always learn.
7.
How do I accept credit card payments on my site?
To accept credit card payments on your website,
you need the services of a credit card
processor. These services will process credit
card payments for you through a user friendly
interface you can easily incorporate on the
site. E.g. http://www.clickbank.com http://www.ibill.com
http://www.2checkout.com/
