While that is a very comprehensive list on someone interested in learning how to make money online, you have forgotten the stress on the importance of patience when working from home. You can't expect to get traffic or income overnight - it is a slow process at the start, that takes a lot of hard work and time, but eventually, it does pay off provided you are persistent. Great great write up. -Regina from <a href="http://www.capetownawnings.co.za/">Awnings Cape Town</a> Nick, I think you've forgotten the most important point.

How true this is. I left a network marketing company a complete failure. The main problem was too many conferences with different successful individuals giving different methods. The same is true on the internet. Sign up for too many email list and get too many new ideas, tricks, and tips. The key is to find what works for you and then do more of it. Stay laser focused and success will come. Stick to 1 thing at a time. How true this is. I left a network marketing company a complete failure.

And you can get an idea of what might work by looking at what successful people already do. Very true. And you can get an idea of what might work by looking at what successful people already do.

The trouble is that the opposite is also true: 20% of our successes or profits come from 80% of our efforts... When it comes to doing business 80% of our time is mostly wasted. I agree. And it is hard to know which is producing profits unless you stick with it for a bit, then analyze what you have done. Sometimes it is surprising what turns out and what does not. But for the winners, either expanding or building another similar site has worked for me.

I have to agree that google analytics is one way to track traffic of a site. Right now, I am trying to stick on one topic at a time because I could focus more on a given topic.

I have just checked my data and it is true that 20% of your sources produce 80% of the traffic. I need to start focusing on those things instead of trying to do everything at once. Thanks for the advice. Great post. I have just checked my data and it is true that 20% of your sources produce 80% of the traffic.

I would add another reason people fail to make money online is that they underestimate the effort required to acquire the necessary skills. It’s going to take time to develop new skills, and during this time it's unlikely that money will be made... so they hop off in search of an easier option... which of course doesn’t exist. After a while they just give up because “the net doesn’t work!" As you say, they imagine that online business is somehow different (easier) than offline business, and while I agree there are differences...work is still required and human nature remains the same... "What’s in it for me?" My approach to both issues is simple… First you give - Then you receive... Sometimes! Thanks Nick…
