Success on Internet is not a matter of good luck, being born under a lucky star or having a rich father. Success on Internet comes when we follow proven principles that have stood test of time.

Over years four key areas have been identified as critical to online success. Get these right and success will follow, sometimes very quickly. Get them wrong and even working 100 hours a week won't help you much.

Here now are four foundations of success.

1. Knowledge. The number of people who have come online hoping they could join a "program", pay their $20 a month and be successful could fill a few hundred football stadiums. The number of people who have succeeded using this method can be counted on one hand.

The bottom line to success in any business is knowledge. Knowledge is power.

While you don't need to become world's leading marketing expert in order to market successfully, you do need to have a basic understanding of key concepts and tools you will use in order to succeed.

If you don't know what an autoresponder is, what HTML stands for, what it means to process credit card orders in 'real time' you may want to take some time to nail down basics before spending your hard earned money.

2. Products. This may sound like a "no-brainer" but you must sell products and services that people want. The good news is that people love to buy things online. Buying online is fun. It's convenient. And people do it every year to tune of billions of dollars.
