How I got into Internet Marketing
Posted on May 18th, 2008 in Life, Marketing, Wealth |
I have been doing internet marketing for the past 2 years, but when I look back at the beginning, it was all an accident. I was a great fan of computer games, and hence I was an avid reader of the Indian PC magazine called digit. One day I was very bored and took up an old issue of that magazine and was browsing over it, suddenly I saw an article which talked about how to make money through internet by placing AdSense ads on blogger sites. I immediately created one and put up the ads (I had little HTML knowledge from school syllabus!). I had no patience to read their TOS. All I knew was, they pay when the ads are clicked. I clicked the ads myself (LOL) and reached $100 in a period of 2 months. (Clicking ads every day for several minutes). I was too confident that Google will send me the check. One morning when I woke up to check my stats, I saw that they have closed my account. I sent them several mails and no response!
That was the first ever attempt to make my own money (I was 19 years by then). I got too frustrated and got determined to make money off the internet, no matter what the odds. I started searching Google, ran across a few people in this field and slowly started to learn about CJ.com and other online money making methods. After a month, I got my first real check of $35 from CJ.com. The image of the check is still in my eyes!
Today I have made several thousand dollars from the internet, and will make millions of dollars (if not billions) in the years to come. I love internet marketing, and its my passion!
Thank you for taking time to read my history. I will make lot of posts in the coming days about internet marketing which would be of great help to you people.

Thats pretty awesome how you got into marketing. I myself am just 17 and got into this not long ago. I started selling wholesale products on eBay when I was 15 and now i’m getting into this whole idea of affiliate marketing.
Haha! Everybody has that one embarassing moment with Google Adsense.
I remember doing the same Click abritrage stuff, but it was never enough to make $100.
Good to see your blog active, Deepak. Will keep an eye on you
