To be honest, I have a site that gets tons of visitors. It covers a subject that just about everybody is aware of, and just about everybody knows somebody affected by it. I love that site. People come to it from all over the world. The products I have on that site were really hand picked. I mean, I did not just through anything remotely touching on the subject matter into the site - I looked for legitimate items that would do people some good. Percentage wise, I get more clicks on that site than any other site. There is just one tiny problem, and that is - they don't spend a cent!

As much as I love that site, it is very far from being worth the time and effort I put towards it, now. What is good about it? Well, with the things I had learned, and with experience, I learned how to attract people to the site without spending one cent on ads. Slowly but surely, experience, and looking at the numbers, taught me what interested people. Get their interest, and yes, they will come.

Everybody who uses the internet a fair amount of the time is going to get a ton of email (by the way, if you are prone to signing up for this, that, or the other free thing being given away, make sure you create an email address for the junk mail that will surely follow). I still read a lot of it. You know what, I still learn things from some of them. After all, they have to offer something to get your attention.

Slowly but surely, you will pick up the words to attract people. Whether it is articles or paid ads, you will find the words that attract them to your site rather than the site of the ad above or below yours, and once they get there, actually buy something! You can go the long route of experience, or you can go the route of using a training program that actually teaches and supports. I know, when you are starting out, you might not have a ton of money to toss around. Think about it though, a small investment here and there can save a lot of depression along the way.

I have invested in good products, and I have invested in terrible products, but even the worst have taught me something. The good products, as noted above, will be there to give you support.

While you are building that perfect website, take one of the good courses and learn a few of the tricks. For instance, things like how to move your site up in the rankings. It was amazing to me, but I did see the first site I used some of the ranking items on move up. When it did, my traffic and profits moved up also.

Visit sites and see how they are set up. If they look fairly professional, take note of what it is you find interesting. Things as simple as the colors you use might get people to come back.
