Wealth Online is Possible, but it Starts Here!

By Bernard Scala

When you hear about people making huge amounts of money online, you think it's too good to be true, so you dismiss it, while at the same time wanting to believe. Well, you should believe, because it can be done.

'Ok,' you say, 'Maybe it can, but I can't do it.' That's nonsense. Ordinary people, like you and me, can make money online. And it doesn't require a huge financial outlay, or equipment any more specialized than a computer and a few extra pieces of software.

'Ok, you say, 'But what can I do?' Well, one of the easiest and most economical ways to do it is to write an e-book and sell it with Clickbank.

So far so good. But here's where the wheels come off the money-making bus for most people

Your friend probably made the classic mistake; he/she wrote an e-book, created a website and still made no sales. Why is that? It's because of one simple undeniable fact.

No one wants to buy the product. And so they don't make a dime. Worse yet, all the time and money already poured into the venture are completely wasted.

Your friend wrote about what they wanted to write about vs. what the customer actually wanted to read. Remember; it's not about your needs, it's about theirs. You have to give people what they want, and rest will come.

'Hold on,' you might be saying. 'I don't know these people, how am I supposed to know what they really want?' The answer is so obvious, it's often overlooked: figure out what people are ALREADY buying!

Why make it hard on yourself by guessing? Guessing is for jellybeans in jar, not business. Unless you have a multi million dollar budget for advertising, you'll never 'create a need'. The real secret is to fill an already existing need and do it better.

Here's how to find out what people are already buying in three easy steps:

Step 1: Go to Clickbank.com and view the marketplace. Either browse the categories or use their search function to search for niche products. Those products at the top of the search results and categories are the bestsellers.

Step 2: Visit Amazon.com. Next, go to Amazon and run a search for your market keywords (like "copywriting" or "making candles"). Those books appearing at the top of the search results are the most popular products in the niche.

Step 3: Don't forget about Google. Just type in your key words and check out what others in your niche are selling. The organic ones are great, but don't overlook the sponsored ones. Clearly, those people are making money within your niche.

Now that you know what your customers want to buy, make it, but make it better. Find out what the competition is doing wrong, and make sure your product doesn't make the same mistakes.

TIP: You find out a product's flaws simply by reading and using the product for yourself. But you can also search online for product reviews (check Amazon for starters). If you see customers repeatedly mentioning a weakness of the product, then you'll instantly know how to create a better product.

Now that you know what your market wants, what's the next step?
