Not Making Money Online, Why Is It So Hard?
It can be summed in one word why it is so hard for people to make money on the internet.
SKILLS….
Well maybe I should say three words—Internet Marketing Skills!
Forget all the other things about choosing a niche,finding the right product,hiring a copywriter or setting goals, although these are all part of internet marketing.
What I am talking about are the same skills other business’s in the world struggle with. You need prospects, website visitors, traffic… etc.
This is why people do not make money online. Not enough eyes looking at their sites every day.
This should create a ‘DOH” moment for you.
If it takes eyes on your site to make money how do you do that?
99% of all Internet home business ideas fail because of lack of traffic. That is the hard part. That is what you are going to get paid to do.
You should and must develop internet marketing skills and become a professional internet marketer. At the very least you should be professional enough to get people to stop by your website and see what you have to offer.
First and foremost you should learn how to get traffic. Once you do that the other things fall into place.
I see websites that look rubbish but because of the shear traffic the owner is probably sitting in Hawaii drinking on the beach and laughing all the way to the bank.
You can perhaps have similar success with your home business but only when you develop internet marketing skills. And specifically this…
Develop skills on how to generate traffic and you will make money online too. If not then it will be a struggle for you.

I often wonder why my wife and I are not making the money we should be making, especially with all the time we put in on the net. I knew something was wrong
but I could not put my finger on it, maybe you can help me out.
Thank you,

You have made an excellent point here about developing skills. Many people think that making money online is a simple process. It takes knowledge and skill to drive traffic to your site. Spend the time generating traffic and the money will come.
