The success rate for online marketers is remarkable.Only 5-10 % of us will make it at end of day.What is reason for this happening ? I personally believe it is a lack of positive thinking and attitude.

"How on earth does positive thinking help my marketing ? " , you may ask.In more ways than you can imagine.It is spark that lights way to success.

Online marketing is a fairly new industry.A lot of people have made their names and fortunes using Internet.However some people still eye us with distrust.They have to be won over by right positive approach .It's only way.

The Internet nowadays is fraught with schemes and scams.Many people think that's what online marketing is all about.And they would be surprise to know that one can really make a honest living online.

Just uploading your site onto internet is not enough, even submitting to main search engines and directories takes time. Often it may take months for a website to get listed.

You don't have to spend a fortune on marketing your site, best methods are often very inexpensive or free.

1,Pay Per click search engines

Pay per click search engines work by bidding for keywords. This is an immediate way to get your site listed. They work by bidding for specific targeted keywords related to your site.

You pay only for hits to your site and bidding can start as low as $0.1 depending on popularity of keyword.

For example if you sell blue widgets then "widgets" is too vague. "blue widgets" will get visitors who specifically want to buy blue widgets!! "Widgets would probably be more expensive as it has a more general audience but "Blue widgets" is more targeted to a particular audience and would most probably be cheaper. Here are a couple of well known ones, http://www.overture.com and http://www.go-click.com

2,Submit ezine articles

Submitting ezine articles are free and often one of best ways of getting visitors to your site. Write an article about a subject that relates to your site giving useful information, but don't use it as an advert for your site or it probably won't be accepted. You can however advertise your website in a resource box at end of your article.

Articles should be of a 65 character line length. Editpad lite is a free download enabling you to set character line lengths on your file. http://www.editpro.com/editpadlite.html Saves a lot of work in counting characters!! Another useful free program is http://www.nch.com/.au ypecharge it is designed to count characters and words in any document.

Submit your articles with online article directories at http://www.ezine-writer.com/article-lists.html ,http://www.ezinewriter.com op10.html ,http://www.ideamarketers.com and http://www.articlecity.com
