The last year has been pretty far from comfortable. In fact it’s been a year of hard work, determination, failures, successes, hair pulling frustration and confusion. And I think many beginner marketers who are trying to make money online can relate to this.

However, when you come through the other side of the initial baptism of fire, this making money online “thing” all becomes very clear! You develop a system that you know works, and you can replicate that system to scale your income up to heights previously unimaginable.

In this article I’m going to share with you the exact system that I am using today to create a full time income online in the hope that it’ll help you avoid a lot of the pains that I went through to figure it

In the world of microstock photography success stories are plentiful.  If you have done any reading about microstock photography prior to this, you have probably heard of Yuri Arcurs.  Let’s just say he has 40 people working for him.  He is well known as the most successful microstock photographer in the world.  It is stories like this that give us inspiration and the will power to attempt microstock photography.  But it will be all for naught if we don’t create something that someone will want to buy.

It may be bad news for some, but not just any camera will do.  There are certain expectations that the microstock photography agencies have when they review your photo application.  This review process will be done when you first join (where you must get a certain number of photos approved to qualify) and when

Have you ever thought about making more money online? How about making $60 an hour online? Wow, do you wish you made that? I know most people do, and the truth is you can. It’s simple.

This job starts with new forum owners, who want to build up a member base, and ultimately turn that into a cash income. Most new owners realize, that their needs to be a content base in order to gain new members and discussion.

The Solution

Forum Posters, hire people to build up threads and posts, and a member base on their forums. This way they have some discussion there when new members come along, and see that there is many people on the forum, they join in. That’s because there’s already a discussion they can join and express their opinions.

Where you come in

The internet is filled with thousands of different ways to make a living.  You can build websites for people, blog, write articles, sell photography, and so much more.  So why is it that people limit themselves to doing just one thing?  Complacency is a trap that people fall into after they have become successful with something.  Once they start bringing in a decent residual income, they lose their drive.  This is the time to move on.

Don’t Overdo It

If you are just starting out with the internet business and reading this article you may be thinking, “I’m going to do this, and this, and this.  Don’t.  You will only succeed in burning yourself out.  You won’t make much money in any of your endeavors because you can’t give them the proper attention.   It is important to stick with one or two things until

I see a lot of bloggers giving the tip “Traffic now, monetize later” then telling that it’s more important to concentrate on getting traffic and building readership first BEFORE you monetize your blog.

I don’t agree.

Now here’s the 3 reasons why you SHOULD monetize your blog before even launching it:

Yes it is important to get traffic and build a good relationship to your readers…

But why not do it while monetizing your blog?

It only takes several minutes to setup some simple monetization for a blog – or if you’re like me who can’t figure out HTML, it’s going to take a couple of hours but after that it’s good to go :-)

Why you shouldn’t monetize your blog now

There’s a downside though.

Monetizing your blog can make you a bit statsaholic and make you check your Affiliate account/Adsense account from

I must admit this blog has been inactive.

Today I’ll revive it – and this time, it’s on.

The last couple of months I got the most severe case of… guess what?

MULTI TASKING.

Seriously, I’ve been juggling 5 projects. Add to that the holidays plus school work (I’m at senior year, high school)

All this time I’ve been blind. Multi tasking…

• Made me work more
• And work more…

BUT with all those work, believe it or not, my earnings decreased.

The TRUE Secret

With that experience, I realized how important the tip “focus” is. I knew it before and I’ve heard of it a lot of times but I never really paid that much attention to it.

But before that, let me show some examples (cause i find it funny that even before, focus really IS the true secret)

300 – 300 Spartans fought thousands of Persian soldiers by focusing on one little narrow pass called Thermopylae. They funneled all the Persian soldiers
