Payment Processors: Let’s jump straight into the part where you make money rather than spend it!
If you’re planning to sell anything online then you need someone to process payments for you. Once you have a big enough business then you can consider setting up a merchant account via your bank to process payments, but if you’re just getting started then you’ll need someone to do it for you.
And a payment processor does just that, they process the payment for you and pay you, in return they take a cut of every transaction. It’s a fairly hassle free way to get started and you won’t need to worry about anything but keeping your refunds low and getting people to your site!
Now there are certain products like gambling/mlm schemes/porn and restricted category programs that the processors will not take, but most other things should be ok. (If in doubt check their terms) To sign up typically you just fill out your details to apply, someone will review your details and give you a decision in a few days.
Here are some popular payment processors you can choose from:
I think Clickbank deserves a particular mention, if you’re products are digital, like a digital book, a subscription to a website etc, then they will happily process payments for you, but they can also help you to sell more!
They have a built in marketplace where anybody with a Clickbank account can become an affiliate and help you to sell your product. That means if you have a salesletter that converts well you could get some of the top affiliates driving traffic to your site and you only pay them when it results in a sale!
Because of the continuing growth of the internet, web marketing has really taken off in recent years and for many budding entrepreneurs it seems like the obvious arena to create a new business. Many are finding success… Billions of dollars are being spent online and the savviest Internet marketers are out there in the digital trenches directing that money to where they want it to go.
With the practically free cost of entry, anyone can now start to market on the internet, but few actually succeed in creating a serious business.
In part we can point the finger of blame towards the many ’get-rich-quick schemes’ (there are as many as there are snake oil salesmen selling them) Many of these ‘pie in the sky’ programs simply squash the dreams (and bank balances) of the would be web marketer before they get far enough to see the light at the end of the internet! I’ve heard figures bounced round that only 5% of people trying to make money online will ever go full-time and make a business out of it, I fear it may be more like 1%.
So what can you do to dramatically increase your chances of making money online?
Learn the essentials, and get to grips with the basics of marketing (in general not just online!)
The difference between you now and someone making 7 figures a year online is just some experience, a lot of hard work and a head start. Someone making 7 figures is doing the same as someone making 4 figures a year, they are driving traffic to targeted offers, just on a larger scale!
So if you can learn the essentials, the activities that you need to master and do on a daily basis to make money, then you are already ahead of 99% of the rest who are chasing their own tales looking for a ‘magic pill’

You’ve heard it and yes it’s true… The money is in the list!
And if you don’t have an email list, then you really are missing out on potentially thousands of dollars in extra profits each and every week.
Many online business owners make a significant percentage of their profits from list marketing, and you should be to. However what puts most people off is just how long it can take to build and develop a mailing list from scratch.
Now we realize that for many readers, time can be an issue. In fact you can probably relate to some of these comments we hear regularly when list building is being discussed:
“I’ve been trying to build my list, but I can’t seem to do it! I’ve spent countless hours already…So what’s next?”
..or
“I wish I could build my list faster, yet retain the quality of the list”
Those are all common issues and rapid growth vs. list quality does require somewhat of a delicate balancing act. (let’s face it, pretty much anyone can build a huge list, but if the subscribers are untargeted then they will be largely unresponsive to your emails.)
… One of the best (yet often overlooked) methods of list building is to simply let other people build it for you. Lists built by recommendation and word of mouth can perform much better than lists built from ‘cold’ traffic – but it’s got to be done right…
