Other success stories of Internet Business include likes of Google, Yahoo, Hotmail and Ebay and thousands of many others. BUT NOW “YOU SHOULD BE NEXT”. If you are already there- GREAT; If not- there is still plenty of room for new businesses in cyberspace-internet. Running your own small business on Internet is a sure way to make a living and I speak from experience. It’s cheap to operate if you do it right and this is why I will share with you steps on how to run an extremely successful Internet business. (1)Own a professional website with your own unique domain name. This is cornerstone of your online business. (2)A product you can sell. Sell at least one product you are confident on- a product that will be very useful to your customers. (3)Join an affiliate program. If you do not have a product to sell, you can join an affiliate program to promote their products and begin to earn good commissions from sales you make. (4)An opt-in email strategy. You want visitors to your site. These are prospects that will purchase your products/services; therefore you must always be growing a tightly targeted email list of prospects. (5)A way to accept secure credit card payments online on your website. A merchant account is best solution. Your customers want to purchase your products from your website, if you offer a FAST and SECURE way to make their orders. (6)Sales copy that is proven to sell I have sold thousands of manuals and books online and success link is excellent and detailed *sales copies* I send to my opt-in email list. (7)Create a new product of your own and you will stand a better chance of growing your income continually. Also update your existing products to keep it and sales fresh. (8)Your marketing strategy. In order to make serious and huge money online, answer-“get visitors to your website”. There are tons of ways to do that on Internet. I use a lot of paid advertising, co-registrations and more. You can also accomplish this by giving away FREE articles. Write up a short article with a hot title and submit to ezines in your niche but don’t advertise in article itself. You will never know what works best for you until you try and try different strategies.

Make all your Mailing Lists Double Opt-In Accusations of spam can be so harmful to your business that every effort should be made to prevent it. However, simply requesting a surfer to enter an e-mail address into an online form on your website is not a guarantee of not being accused of spam. Here's what could happen One of your competitors could visit your website and enter name of a well-known anti-spammer. When your autoresponder sends out latest copy of your newsletter or mini-course to this person, he will become very angry. It is no good protesting your innocence. Since he didn't ask to subscribe to your newsletter, he will claim that you are spamming him. While you are arguing your case with your Web host, your competitor will be taking your profits!
