      Online marketing can be a great way to earn a living while working from the comfort of your own home. It is certainly not a quick way to become rich but it can and should be a rewarding way of earning an honest living.Most newcomers get totally confused and, as a result, often quit trying to make money online before they even know what it is all about. Fact of the matter is that it is not difficult to make money online but without the right guidance it can be a minefield.Here are a couple of tips that can really help you get started:There is no best way to make money online.There are many ways of making money online. Many newcomers spend far too much time looking for the best way, often only realizing too late that they were searching for something that does not exist.They keep on jumping from the one opportunity to the next hoping to find the proverbial pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. It is not difficult to understand this behavior... There are so many opportunities available to a new marketer that it is easy to become distracted.Online marketing is not a get rich quick method.It is true that it is possible to make a very good living doing online marketing. However, most successful internet marketers have years of experience. They achieved success through hard work and not by treating their business as a part-time hobby.Many newcomers have unrealistic expectations. Once again, it is not difficult to understand... There are so many ads on the internet that make promises like "Earn $100,000 per month..." or something similar that newcomers often believe it is quick and easy to make a fortune online.Building a successful online marketing business takes time. Your results will depend on the amount of time and effort you invest in your business. There is no magic button you can push that will make you wealthy. If this was the case, we would all be doing it.In fact, it has been reported that up to 90% of all newcomers quit online marketing within the first six months of starting.What is the best way for a newcomer to start?As I previously indicated, there is no best way to make money online. However, I consider niche marketing an excellent way to make money online.Let me explain the concept of niche marketing...Consider the market for a moment as the world. There are many different continents and several of these continents have different countries. Each country has different cities.If you can choose to work in any continent, country and city of your choice what would you base your decision on?Factors may include language, culture, weather, and potential income. Your decision will also be based on what you already know about a certain country or city. The better you know and like a certain country or city the more likely it will be that you will enjoy working in that country or city.You may even decide to stay and work in the city where you were raised because you like it, know it and understand how things work.Exactly the same concept applies to the internet. There are many different niches and each of these niches can be broken down into smaller niches. It is the same principle of taking the world and splitting it into continents, countries and cities.You will be more likely to enjoy, and succeed with, online marketing if you do something that you already know, are interested in or feel passionate about.I see far too many newcomers trying to make money online in niches that they think is profitable but that they know nothing about, are not really interested in, do not understand and actually do not care about.Most of these newcomers do not enjoy what they are doing and quit online marketing within the first six months of starting. There is no reason why you cannot enjoy online marketing and earn a good living at the same time. Learning how to succeed with niche marketing is a great start to building a successful online marketing business.To YOUR Online Marketing Success!Francois du ToitFrancois du Toit is the owner of http://Online-Marketing-From-Home.com and author of 'Niche Marketing Uncovered' - http://www.NicheMarketingUncovered.com
