No one has ever logged onto the Internet for the first time and
started pocketing dollars in a really short period of time. As
with all things in life,Fast Track Your Journey to Online Success Articles there is a learning curve.

SOME PERSONAL HISTORY

Just a few short years ago, I was a working stiff just like you.

One day, I bought and read a book called "Multiple Streams of
Income" by bestselling author, Robert Allen. Immediately, I
began my journey.

Every night after work and after my wife and children went to
sleep, I would get online and explore different ways of using
the Internet to make money.

In the 2 years that followed, I spent over $10,000.00 racking up
credit card debt buying eBooks, membership sites, special
reports, opt-in leads, and joining every "guru" recommended
business opportunity that flew into my email inbox...

I stayed up learning, working and drinking coffee until 5:00 in
the morning month after month filled with the hope of making
money online.

In my 3rd year of working part-time to build an home based
income, I finally broke through and earned over $100,000.00 in
just 12 months from the Internet.

BECOME THE MASTER OF YOUR LEARNING CURVE

Research the lives of all of the guru's. The one thing that you
will learn is that my own experience is not unique. Most of the
high earners on the Internet experienced a learning curve very
similar to my own.

Chances are that your curve will also be similar to mine, but it
is my hope that you can get to the top faster than even I did.
Three years was a long time to struggle, but every ounce of
struggle was worth the reward I have finally received.

In order to shorten your own learning curve, you must do a few
things differently than the rest of us did. You must become the
master of your learning curve.

THE SHORTEST DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO POINTS IS A STRAIGHT LINE

There is only one way to shorten the curve on the Internet, "you
must plan to succeed."

Here is the deal. Most people put up a freebie website and
select a few affiliate programs to add to their website. Right
out of the gate, most people are running for the finish line
without any real plan in mind.

After a few short weeks, people begin to see the writing on the
wall that says, "This is going to be a long hard road."

People check their hit counters daily for six weeks before they
realize that getting traffic to their free site is going to be
tough.

At this point, they begin developing their first batch of
advertising. Then they spend countless months finding places to
show their advertisements for free. Some make an even more
drastic mistake by blowing thousands of hard earned dollars on
their new and untested ads.

These are the people who will learn the facts of life the hard
way.

In time, they will learn how to make their advertising work for
them. But most will earn very little money from their affiliate
programs.

At this point in the learning curve, most people throw up their
hands and walk away from their dreams in utter disgust. Instead
of a walking away point, this should have convinced the
struggling online entrepreneur that they were simply traveling
the wrong road.

YOU MUST PLAN TO SUCCEED

From day one, you must begin to learn about the nuances of web
promotion. Read everything you can get your hands on. Don't just
read the hype, back it up with the opinions of others who have
reviewed the same programs before you came along. Learn from
their mistakes and successes.

As you begin to learn, you must also look to make a decision. Do
you want to step into a pre-built program that is designed to
help you to succeed, OR do you want to create a completely new
program of which you are the sole owner?

If you decide to step into a pre-designed and complete turn-key
online money making venture, then you must select the right
venture to step into. If this is your decision, then please
examine my program along with the others. You can review my Plug
In Profit Site™ program at: http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com .

If you decide to go the journey on your own, then do all of the
necessary research, planning and preparation that is needed for
your success.

PREPARE TO SUCCEED

Decide upon what you think you would want to do, and then figure
out how your planned site will generate a real income.

Internet old-timers know about hundreds of corporation domains
that existed with IPO millions, but did not have an actual money
plan that could sustain their business model. Most of these
companies were among the hundreds of companies that bellied up
in the 2000 dot bomb experience.

Don't blindly believe in your plan. Research others on the web
who have undertaken similar business models and see if they have
survived. Study your competitors in depth to learn what is
working for them and what did not work for them. To better
understand what has or has not worked for competitor websites,

Once you have determined your money plan, then you should
undertake the development of a business plan and a marketing
plan. Utilize professional assistance if you need to do so.
While creating your plans, make a determination as to which
domain name you think would be best, then use the NameBoy tool
to figure out if that domain name is open:

Once you have developed your business plan and marketing plan
and have run them through several revisions, then it will be
time to buy your domain name and to begin work with a site
designer and developer. You may need to have your domain sitting
on a webhost for your site developer, but this is not always
necessary. While they are doing their work, enlist a copywriter
to help you with your site sales copy.

When your site designer and developer have your site working,
you should then undertake significant testing to make sure
everything works as planned. It is much harder to fix problems
on a operational site than it is to fix problems on a site that
is yet to be launched.

When testing is done, then you should fill in your sales copy
and then shoot for launch. Of course, you already have a
marketing plan in place, so your preparation here will be simply
a matter of putting the pieces of the puzzle into place.

You are finally ready to open for business. Don't be afraid to
spend the money to bring your dream alive. Time can replace
money in the goal of starting a profitable online business, but
money invested can shave years off of your company's growth.
