Once i started an online business where i had tremendous opportunity. I know very well about the business. But when i started, it was a fiasco. It was about article writing business in a large scale. I also offer many other services like webhosting, directory submission.. Knowing the potential, i started the business. But i was not able to succeed in that. And in another occassion, i started another business of selling e books with my friend and i was not able to sell even a single copy of any book. What kind of advice would you give me and i want to where i go wrong?

I guess that you had started this business without much prior experience in it. The first thing is that gaining the complete knowledge about the business you are going to start before starting it and the second one is effective marketing and the last one is having patience. Everything cannot be accomplished in a month it will take its own time before turning into a success.

Sadly, many hundreds of people have tried these various 'get rich quick' websites, often encouraged by so called 'internet gurus' who tell you if you follow their advice you simply cant fail to make tons of money, and that money will come rolling into your bank account even while you sleep.....
