Over the last decade, the Internet has become a viable option in facilitating business start-ups. Due to the large number of audiences that people can get with online company formations, more and more are using it. A great example for this is the company formation, which is a place in the Internet where anyone can form a profitable company on the Internet. Apart from being an easy way to create your own business, online company formations also make marketing much easier.

Following are a few steps to create an impressive business online:

It all starts with an idea. It is very important that you first plan everything before actually building your company online. Understand your market, competition, and supply and demand. Following a certain scheme for your online business will help it grow successfully. Consult with an attorney, accountant or mentor to understand any laws or regulations about business. Even if it’s an online business, there are still certain rules that need to be followed.

There are various company formation packages you can choose from when registering your business. Some of the examples are a C– Corporation, S-Corporation or Limited Liability Corporation. The type of formation that you choose will likely depend on the nature of your business, product or service.

After forming your business entity, you can then begin to design and construct your website. Your design needs to be related with the products and services that you offer so that people can recognize it easily. In most cases, seeking help from professionals with regard to your website and design can greatly expedite your profits and shorten or eliminate unnecessary learning curves.

Marketing your company online is the biggest way to bring in more customers and drive traffic to your website. Marketing your business on the Internet is also one of the principal and most important decisions that you make. It’s important that when choosing methods of marketing on the Internet that you take into consideration price, exposure, and ROI or Return on Investment. Without substantial traffic and ROI the chances of making your business a success on the Internet are almost impossible.

4 steps to launching on the Internet. Which ones are you missing?

Yet, in all that time, my online income hasn’t stopped. Not from this blog. And, not from my other blogs and sites that I haven’t paid much attention to for over a year. That’s the beauty of creating income streams on the web. Some of them *can* become good sources of passive income.

So, what have I been up to? What has been keeping me busy and away from here?

In July 2010, I started a new job. Still working online, but for a nonprofit organisation. Things had been hectic in the job and most of my personal projects online had taken a backseat.

I keep thinking I’ll give this blog up. Perhaps, finally sell it like I planned to many years ago. In fact, I’ve had a handful of offers for this blog, even though I haven’t updated it or approached anyone about selling.

But, somehow, I find myself unable to for one reason or another. One of these days, perhaps.

For now, I’m still here. And will try to pick up the blogging again. Let’s see how this goes.

And to all of you who have been patiently supporting this site, regardless of the lack of updates: THANK YOU.

Special thanks goes out to all our sponsors and other supporters, like Internet Income University, Web Wealth Marketing, Global Success Club, SiteReviewsAuthorities, TopEarningTeam, AutoPilotWebsite System, and MakeMoneyGiant.

And, of course, a million thanks to all our regular readers, subscribers, and visitors. It’s because of you that JMMO continues to exist.

Getting Back to Blogging at JMMO

Consider these important principles of online marketing…

1) Belief

Can you succeed without belief? It’s all to do with your mindset, and as Henry Ford once said, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you will always be right.” So, if you go into your business venture thinking that it won’t work and will fail, it invariably will, as that is your expectation. Sometimes it may be hard to maintain your belief, particularly in the early stages of your business, as you don’t always see things happening as quickly as you might have expected, and then negative thoughts may start to creep in. This is entirely natural, and it is at this point in your journey, that you need ensure that persistence is on your side!

2) Persistence

Persistence is a great leveller, as it is an attribute that anyone can employ, whatever your intellect or capability. You really don’t need to have studied at the top universities to be able to make a great success of your business. In fact, many successful entrepreneurs and businessmen started with nothing, apart from a desire to succeed, and of course, persistence. When things get tough or you’ve been knocked back, you need persistence to pull you through. Many people may well give up at this point, but if you are truly serious about succeeding, persevere, try and try again, until you get what you want or where you want to be.

3) Right Business System

However, if you have chosen to follow a business system, you need to ensure that it is one that is not only proven to work, but that it will also give you what you need, in terms of backup and training. Remember, if you are new to internet marketing, you will need training and guidance, just like you would in any new job, so this should be one of the key elements when assessing your chosen system. If the system has already worked for lots of other people, then there should be no reason as to why it shouldn’t work for you as well.

4) The List

The List – this should be your mantra! Your list is your business, never forget this. All your marketing focus should be aimed towards building your list, as without this, the process of selling online becomes much, much harder, as you are then trying to sell to new, individual customers each time. And as all the marketing gurus will tell you, it’s much harder to find a customer than it is to retain them.

5) Relationships

But, to get a customer in the first place, they need to know and trust you. People buy from people! So, you need to be building relationships with your leads, and not bombarding them with the hard sell, to earn their trust, so that in time, they will listen to you and what you have to offer. The same rule apples for your customers, build the relationship, keep in contact, as you ideally want your customers to buy from you over and over again.

Keep these five principles close to you on your journey, and success and wealth will be virtually assured for your internet marketing business.

Thank You, JMMO Sponsors! {June/July 2010}

They have also shared a guide on how to write a review on their site, if you need a bit of help. But, it looks pretty straightforward. Check out the list of products that they wished to be reviewed. I’m not sure if you’re allowed to review anything else that’s not on that list.

Also, unfortunately, I can’t seem to find any information on who can join the promotion. Since this is an Australia-based shopping site, I’m not sure if reviewers can come from anywhere in the world*. And, since I haven’t personally joined the promotion, I’m not certain how it all works out.

I would’ve loved to be able to do a full report on the promo, but I don’t have the time to investigate it fully. I would’ve normally skipped writing about it because of that. But, in case it’s legit, I don’t want any of you to miss out. So, if you’re interested, check it out. They have also put an email address for questions, if you have any.

Good luck and do let me know if you give it a go.

UPDATE:
*“Qualifying Reviewers” for the purpose of this Promotion must:
a) be Australian residents of 18 years or over, who are registered users of Shopping.com; and
b) have or create a valid Australian PayPal account prior to the time at which the prizes for this Promotion are distributed.

Thanks, Lara Kulpa, for the update!

I’m finally able to share with you the poll results from our last poll, “What Do You Buy The Most Online?”

And, as you can see from the chart, according to JMMO readers, Electronics or Gadgets (phones, computers, etc) come first (22% of votes). Then, Books and Magazines come next (15%). Followed by Fashion Items (clothes, shoes, accessories, bags) (11%).

Then, there’s a tie between Digital Information Materials (ebooks, reports, etc) and Pornographic Material*, both receiving 10% of votes each.

Games* received 9% and there was also a 1% vote for Online Gaming Subscriptions*.

The next one that people buy online the most are Children’s Items (baby stuff, toys, etc) (7%), followed by Home and Garden (appliances, accessories, etc) (6%).

Then, there’s Art and Crafts (raw materials or products) (4%), Site Memberships or Subscriptions (3%), and Services (workshops, consultancies, etc) (2%).

Knowing where people like to spend money is a good way to study the online market. As online entrepreneurs, we might consider some of these options as possible business ventures.

By the way, there were 115 votes collected in this poll. Thanks again to all of you who voted!

* Reader-added options.

Poll Results: What Do You Buy The Most Online?

Or so I thought!

I realised that even though I have shared my discovery of HubPages with you almost two years ago, I’ve never reported any incoming income from this source. I think it’s partly because, silly me, I never thought about adding a Google Adsense tracker in my account. So, I never really knew if my measly 3 HubPages were making me any sort of income. A few months ago, I finally started tracking my HubPages account.

And, guess what? It HAS been making me some cash via Adsense. Not a lot of money, mind you. But, with just 3 quick articles, I realised that I’m still able to earn some passive income from them. So, I think that’s great. It makes me think that maybe I should try to add a few more articles in there…

Anyway, this shows that the comment left by my fellow online writer and friend Marye Audet really is something worth considering:

“I have been writing for Hubpages for about 1 1/2 years. I have nearly 400 articles. And, at this point, I am hitting over $500.00 in residual affiliate money every month, with adsense being a large percentage of that. I am not as involved in the community aspect as many others because of other writing commitments and simple lack of time. Anyway, if you are not looking for instant financial gratification and willing to work up to a significant income AND post enough to pique google’s interest, it is a great option.”

So, what about you? Have you created your HubPages yet? Are you making some passive income through some of your content?

One of the most common questions we get is: “How can I make money online if I don’t yet have a website?” Websites, after all, usually require at least a small investment in purchasing a domain name, web hosting, etc. Then before you can make money with a website, you need to spend time adding useful content, marketing it, and building links before Google will notice you and start to send a bit of traffic your way.

So, what do you do if you just want to know the easiest way to make money online, without having to worry about any of that technical stuff?

Fortunately, these days there are several options for making money online that don’t require a website. If you have a computer with internet connection, a bit of free time, and a dash of creativity, you can be earning your first online cash tonight!

5 Ways to Make Money Online With No Website

1. Do a Simple Task on Fiverr
   Fiverr is the best of a new breed of “microjob” websites that allow people to outsource very small jobs for very small payments. Right at this moment people are earning 5 bucks a pop for such tasks as becoming someone’s Facebook girlfriend, recording a sexy voicemail message, or critiquing a blog design.
2. Get Paid to Write
   If you can write well, you can quickly and easily make money writing articles for a number of websites online. The easiest way to get started is via revenue sharing websites like Helium.com, AssociatedContent, or eHow. At these sites you’ll generally only earn a few dollars per article, but they can serve as “credits” to help you get higher-paying gigs writing for blogs or other websites. For example, right now my site MakingMoneyOnline.com is hiring an experienced blogger to write 2 “blogging tips” articles per week at a much higher pay rate then eHow. Interested? Inquire within!
3. Help out a Student
   Remember those days of struggling to figure out a homework problem? Today students have “virtual tutors” on call 24 hours a day. If you know a thing or two about book-learning, you can get paid to help stuck students at websites like StudentofFortune.com and eHomeworkHelp.
4. Sell a Domain Name
   Domain name investing is a great first step into making money online – all you need to get started is a credit card and a knack for words. You can find high quality domains for sale at auction sites like TDNAM.com.
5. Become an Expert
   The say that everyone is an expert at something. Now, new websites allow you to cash in on your expertise by helping people with specialized problems (for a fee, of course!). One of the best is MiNeeds.com, where people are willing to pay anywhere from a dollar to hundreds of dollars for specialized expertise.

Hopefully that’s proof enough for you that there are legitimate ways to make money online without a website. Now it’s up to you to get started!
