Internet business success, just like any venture in life, is hinged on certain key principles. If you have been online for a while and you are yet to see substantial progress, it could be because 1 or 2 of these keys are missing in your life. Ok, I will not waste much of your time, let me bring the 3Ds of Internet Business Success on.
1. Decision.If you have been reading this blog for a while, you will know that there are several ways to make money online. Affiliate Marketing, Adsense, E-book Creation and Marketing, Domain Monetisation,etc,so,you have to decide which of those business models you want to run with.

2.Discipline.After deciding which of the business models you want to run with, you need to discipline yourself to take all the steps required for success. Discipline is key if you want to succeed online. I won’t even pretend I also don’t battle with staying disciplined in this business. It is a battle you must be prepared to fight and win.Okay,what is Discipline? “Discipline is not such a bad thing. It’s simply doing what you’re supposed to do as well as you can when you’re supposed to do it.” ~ Mike Krzyzewski.You don’t have to feel like doing it before doing it, you must discipline yourself to take all the required steps you need to take before saying it’s not working. I don’t know how to say it, but you must discipline yourself to face your Internet Business and I tell you, you will be happier for it.
3.Determination.You must be determined to make your Internet business work. There is power in determination and you need lots of it to make your Internet Business work because I must confess to you it’s gonna be tough at the beginning. It’s not gonna be a butter and bread game so, you must be prepared for whatever comes your way. Coupled with determination is your power to do. If you know what to do but do not push yourself to do them, you cannot see any success online. The power to do is very important, don’t joke with it.

How Can I Market My E-book Online?
Posted by Iyabo July 1, 2008Q:I have just created an e-book but I have no idea how to market it online. Please help me.
A: To market your e-book online, you first need to determine which market you want to serve: either the local or International market.
If you are targeting the local market, your best bet is to set up a site, as well as an auto responder and then advertise in a media read by your target market. The best way to get a lot of attention from the advert is to give something away for free. Your advert can read like:
Free Google Adsense E-book
Discover how to make dollars online from free ebook.Visit www.yoursite.com for instant download.
I can tell you, with this kind of advert, you are going to sell because the advert will draw people to subscribe to your list and then, you can start following them up through your autoresponder.That’s the secret to success in e-book marketing. You’ve got to be able to market your e-book to high heavens,otherwise,you won’t sell. I know you want to ask me what should be in the free e-book since the e-book is supposed to be sold. What I normally do, for every e-book I am selling, I create a free version which will contain brief information from the paid one through the free e-book’s allow you to download it free and then market the paid version through the free e-book.
I know you want to ask me if it is a must that you have a website when you are starting out. Yes and no. Yes because a website gives your business credibility. No because you may not have money for a website initially,so,you can start with a free autoresponder.You can get a free auto responder by clicking here.
If you are targeting the International market, you need a website,autoresponder,ecover etc.You need to advertise your website address for maximum profitability.
There are 3 ways to advertise your site internationally. You can advertise through ezines,you can advertise through pay per click programs such as Google Adwords,you can also place classified adverts on sites such as USfreeads.com. You can even get free classified adverts from that site but for maximum profitability, you can pay for the advert.
Ezine Advertising works but be sure of what you are getting as most ezine publishers inflate the number of subscribers. If they tell you they have 8000 subscribers, just put your mind at 4000 subscribers to be on the safe side.So,target your advertising towards that number.
Pay Per Click Advertising. This works a lot if you target it very well. This involves advertising your e-book through pay per click programs such as Google Adwords,Yahoo’s Advertising Program as well as MSN Adcenter.For most people, their breakthrough in E-book Marketing comes when they place pay per click ads. This is because you can get value for money without breaking the bank. You only pay when people click on your ads, you dictate how much to pay per click and you can always modify your advertising campaign.
Search Engine Optimization. Yet another way to market your e-book is to target search engine traffic to your site. This way, prospective customers will be able to locate your site through the search engines. This way of advertising is free but you must learn how to optimize your site for search engine traffic. To be able to do this, you need to know search engine optimization. Get free SEO tips, tricks and secrets from Selfseo.com. You can also visit Selfpromotion.com for more assistance.
