Online Bull

Sorry for the long lack of updates. I did not write any new posts as I was pretty busy with school work. For those who haven’t participated in the huge blog contest I am conducting, don’t miss it out! I’m giving away over $700 worth of prizes. You can get a chance to win a prize by just subscribing to my blog through email and confirming your subscription. You can get more details about it on the contest post. All the best.

First of all, let me tell you that this isn’t a paid review or anything. I wrote this post so that I can thank Garry Conn.

Most of you have heard of this guy. If you haven’t heard of him, let me give you a short summary about him which I took from his twitter page.

Full Time Professional Blogger, Google Adsense Guru, Keyword Research Specialist, Make Money Online Expert, Search Engine Marketing Master, WordPress Wizard.

Garry Conn is a great guy and in my opinion, one the the best and friendliest internet marketers I have seen. Garry specializes in setting up and making money from niche blogs (or “niche sites” which would be the apt term).

I recently set up a niche blog using the exact steps that Garry used in his 60 minutes video. Just by looking at the site I created I knew that it would be a success. (more on that niche site in the next post).

I just wanted to write this post as to show my thankfulness to Garry. He writes great smashing content and is an excellent blogger. If you haven’t read his blog or subscribed to it, then I recommned you do so right away. By following Garry you are sure to pick up a lot of tips and value advice.

So make sure you subscribe to his blog.

Just a few days back, I created a niche site. I will write about it on the tomorrow. I am also planning to give away something (awesome) only to my subscribers. So don’t miss it out. Subscribe to Online Bull through email. Hurry up!

P.S. I’ve been nice and hardworking this whole year so I deserve to get a Macbook for myself.

Most of you would have noticed that there are a lot of young internet marketers. By young, I mean below 18 years of age. I know of lots of internet marketers who are young and are already successful in their online ventures. Here are some of them:

Lucas Tan - Lucas was the previous owner of Net Strife. Lucas is a very successful internet marketer. He gave me the inspiration to start this blog.

Jason Pereira - Jason runs The University Kid. He is a 16 year old from Dubai. Jason specializes in website flipping and direct product sales. Most of Jason’s posts contain very little fluff but they contain solid information that is worth thousands of dollars.

Carl Ocab - Carl Ocab, the kidblogger, is known for his famous blog tagline “make money online with a 13 year old“. Carl’s blog ranks #1 for the term “make money online” which is a highly competitive niche. I consider Carl as a successful internet marketer and  feel that I can learn a lot of things from him.

Desmond Ong - Desmond is a successful, 17 year old guy from Malaysia. He specializes in website flipping. On his blog, he often writes about new methods to make money. I love his case studies, by the way!

Rajaie Alkorani - Rajaie is a young blogger and entrepreneur and he’s a 14 year old (same as me). He writes awesome content on his blog Rajaie Talks.

Those are some of the young internet marketers that I know. I myself am a young internet marketer. But I can’t consider myself as a successful one, as I’m still learning a lot of things and I am on my path to success.

Being a young internet marketer has its advantages as well as its disadvantages. Let me list them here:

Pros of Being a Young Internet Marketer

• At my age, I’m full of energy and enthusiasm, and I find that energy and enthusiasm are very essential to become a successful internet marketer.
• It teaches you the value of money. Now that I have earned some money on my own, I now know the real value of money.
• It teaches you how to manage money. While, I don’t make money online to sustain all my real-life expenses, I use what I earn to buy stuff online like software, gadgets, books, etc. So I learn how to manage money and spend it wisely.
• Pride - There’s that feeling of pride and self-satisfaction you get when you accomplish something. Like, I can compare with my friends and say that - “Hey! Do you know that I make money online. And I recently bought XYZ with my earnings too.”

Cons of Being a Young Internet Marketer

• Sometimes you are not taken into account due to your age. That’s really frustrating. But there are a few young marketers who have managed to break that rule and have proved themselves worthy.
• You can’t sign up to some programs and services. Many affiliate programs and services require you to be above 18 years of age, so that can be a problem.
• Most youngsters have studies to concentrate on, so it would be difficult to manage both internet marketing and studies at the same time.

I hope you liked this post. Everything that I have written is based on my opinion but yours might be different. So share your opinions with me in the comments below. If you liked this post, then make sure you subscribe to my blog through RSS or through email.

This is the first official post on Online Bull. I hope I will get a lot of response from you guys. Let’s get on to the post now.

I was first introduced to internet marketing when I was around 12 years old. During those days, I had no idea how to do it, I just knew that it was possible to make money from the internet. About two years later, I seriously got into the game and was planning on making lots of money online. I had many reasons for trying to make money online. But, like 99% of the newbies, I struggled and failed a lot of times. I realized that one needs to be organized to be a successful internet marketer.

You Need to be Organized

As a school student, I don’t have a lot of time in my hands. Most of my time is taken up by studies and homework, so I can’t focus all of my time on internet marketing. Maybe, you’re in a similar situation like me. So let me give some tips on how to manage your time effectively as an internet marketer. Here is what you can do:

• Create a time table - Although it is not necessary, creating a time table for yourself can be very helpful. I recommend creating a weekly time table. You can list out all your daily activities and assign a particular time for each one of them. Make sure that you set apart around 2-3 hours for your internet marketing activities. Plan in advance what you are going to do in those hours (like fifteen minutes for checking email, thirty minutes for commenting, etc).
• Don’t waste your Time - This is the most important thing. Don’t waste your time in logging into your inbox, signing into your dashboard, etc. You can save precious time by setting your inbox as your homepage, signing into your dashboard automatically, etc. These few tricks can save you lots of time.
• Focus your time on more Important things - Do what you think would be more profitable or good for your business. Don’t waste your time in doing unimportant stuff. If you’re doing two things, spend more time on the one which would give you more profits.
• Don’t get distracted - It is easy to get distracted when you are doing something. Try to cut down all sorts of possible distractions.

Remember, time is your most valuable asset. And managing time is the most essential skill for an internet marketer. All the best.
