This special report covers the three roadblocks every new Internet business owners encounters. If you can get past these, you can succeed.

While it may seem that "everybody" is making money online, that's simply not the case.
There are more Internet millionaire "wanna-bes" than you might think. And many have spent more than a few years and more than a few thousand dollars in a vain effort to start a profitable Internet business.
The harsh reality is that for every person who "figures it out" and earns a solid income, about 20 more fail. If you're not earning what you hoped to earn just yet, it's probably due to one of three roadblocks.
I've received hundreds of emails from people who just can't seem to do it. They come to me for help because I've had success online. And my guess is that for every person in need of help, there are 10 more who won't admit their frustration. People hate admitting failure.
I've got news for anyone still struggling to make it online....
Failure is an important step. Failure is the best way to discover what doesn't work -- the roadblocks that stop most people. In the process, you find out how to clear these roadblocks and take another important step toward success.
Here are some of the roadblocks you will encounter as you try to earn income online.

Roadblock #1: The Initial Learning Curve

Succeeding at an online business requires mastery of several key abilities, all during the start-up phase. This can be overwhelming to many newcomers, and leaves lots of folks spinning their wheels.
For example, you have to build a user-friendly and relevant website or blog, usually with no experience whatsoever/ I still remember my first attempt at a website. It was not pretty.

And though there are countless experts, books, and how-to courses on how to start a business online, it's hard for a beginner to know who to believe. There are multiple online business models to choose from as well.
You also need to decide what niche you will enter and what products or services you will sell. Ideally, you want to enter a niche that interests you. But it should also be a niche that can be profitable. Careful consideration is important, and sometimes crippling to the newcomer.
In order to get through the learning curve roadblock you'll need to spend time researching your ideas and your plan. This means educating yourself on topics such as niche selection, website creation, sales letter writing, and opt-in list and relationship building.
If you get stuck on this roadblock for more than a month or two, consider sharing your ideas with someone you trust, preferably someone who has had success online.

Roadblock #2: Website Traffic

Novice Internet marketers know they want their site to be found in the search engines, but many fail to look beyond this step. They soon discover the amount of competition they have for their keywords and search phrases, and the difficulty in getting ranked well, then give up in frustration.

The Internet reality is that a top-ten ranking for popular keywords in any niche is difficult to achieve. But that's OK, because it is only one small part of a profitable Internet marketing campaign.
That's right, every new business owner soon finds out that they'll need to master the complete art of marketing online. This means using multiple methods to drive traffic to a site. And no, you do not have to spend a fortune. There are dozens of proven ways to get traffic to your site, including paid advertising as well as a multitude of no cost strategies like article marketing, recruiting affiliates and doing joint ventures.
The real secret to overcoming this roadblock is being willing to try multiple methods and track the results. Again, this takes time and effort, two things many newcomers are not willing to put in. However, many entrepreneurs who clear this roadblock go on to super-success.

Roadblock #3: Tempting Distractions

It is very easy to become distracted when building an Internet business. These constant distractions lead you off-course and into dead-ends, unless you're very vigilant.
If you subscribe to newsletters or visit forums and blogs, which are recommended methods to build knowledge and connect with potential customers or partners, you're bombarded almost daily with extremely tempting distractions.
You'll constantly be tempted to try new ways to make money. New advertising strategies to try. New top-secret, never-before-revealed-to-the-public ways to get more targeted website visitors than you've ever imagined. And so on.

And while some of these strategies may work, many will not. Since inexperienced Internet marketers find it difficult to make that distinction, they waste time and money delving into new income models before mastering their own plan.
My advice to you... stay focused on your main task. Once it is yielding a reliable income stream, only then should you investigate other business models.

In closing...

Hopefully, if you're considering starting an Internet business, or you're already in the mix, this article will help you avoid the common roadblocks keeping thousands of people from success.
It's certainly possible to make a substantial secondary or primary income online - but it's much more likely if you have a good grasp of the obstacles you'll encounter along the way.
