Yesterday I was trying to think of a title for this post I am writing now. I came up with “Do Something!” but I really didn’t feel it met the essence of the message this time. But it also let me to the current title “What Have You Done This Week?”

It is no secret that I am an internet marketer and I have to do things every day to keep my business moving forward. This means that things are done every day, and something’s are done on a weekly basis, bi-weekly basis, monthly, etc. . . .

I’ll tell you partly how I got started with internet marketing here. Hopefully you will see something within yourself and become encouraged to move forward and not give up with internet marketing.

When I started internet marketing six years ago all I knew how to do was create a web site. I did not know what the marketing methods to get interested people online, or how to use an auto responder properly, and CMS systems were just barely become known. Even today I am still going through a learning process that helps me better understand aspects of internet marketing.

Never the less I had to start somewhere. I joined a few marketing programs, became an affiliate to many others. Really, I was, just looking for ways to make some money. After all, money is the end result most of us are after these days.

As I joined various programs and read more into how to attract people to my websites, I began to notice that I was lacking some of the tools for a good website, then the lack of understanding on how to use a system, then the lack of how to sell to people. There was a lot I simply just not had put to thought until after I made that first step of commitment.

It used to take me a few weeks to have a website up and running just how it should be. Mostly cause I was doing all the coding myself. That dropped to a week after learning some Content Management Systems. Then back up to about three weeks and I learned about more stuff that should be on a website for marketing. Now with all the experience I have on my plate I can personally put a working website up in a matter of hours. I would also like to add that it has also become a lot easier to create websites using CMS systems. Today CMS systems really take care of a lot of the work I used to have to do by hand. I almost do no coding at all.

For those of you who are just getting started, I created an eBook to help you understand WordPress. It is one of the most commonly used CMS systems in use today. Many companies create tools to work with this CMS to help your website. Google Analytics is an awesome tool. About 5 minutes to setup and you’re done. Of course you would need an existing website first.

If you are discouraged with the thought of creating your own website, then I would suggest webs.com. They pretty much provide everything that you need to have a website up and running in a matter of minutes. This system is great for short term, for the longer term I still insist that you learn how to create your own site. Creating your own website allows for you to take control of not just the website itself but all the branding that you are creating for yourself in the process. Any articles you create are yours and not on someone else’s system. You are simply not restricted to the rules of someone else’s system. As you become more acquainted with website systems, you will definitely want your own.

Now spending a sum of money equivalent to about a years of college, I have managed to learn a lot over those six years. You have the opportunity to learn from my experience through my eBook. It is full of information put together in a way I thought would be useful. It is the first run, unedited eBook made to help everyone in internet marketing move forward. Best of all the eBook is FREE for you to down load. And one of the very few times, NO INFORMATION IS REQUIRED, just download the free eBook.

The whole idea of the eBook is to show you just how easy it is to market, provide you with a much stronger foundation in internet marketing, and to make it easier for you to move forward in creating your own success. Easier for you to, simply, just do something; because 97% of internet marketers will fail due to the lack of doing anything.

I’ll end this post with one simple question. What have you done this week?
