Online Store??

Have you ever think of starting a online store?

I launched one half year ago. It took me lot of time to develop this store even though I'm using 3rd party shopping cart system. I need to put up hundreds of product descriptions, images, and some contents pages. Plus some procrastination, it took me more than 6 months to develop. I even stopped doing anything for 3 months and thought of giving up.

Till now, my store still not making much money. Comparing with content sites, some of them even making money in the 1st month! Totally different world and tough business! But Amazon.com's story provide me lot of patience to continue. They lost so much money in the initial years... Of course I do not have intention to be as big as them. I enjoy being SMALL in my NICHE.

I just read through the below interesting thread. You may want to take a look if you would like to go into online wholesale or dropship business.

It's easier to operate an online shop - if you niche.

Another Virtual Real Estate Article

Below is the excerpt of one of the excellent email from John Reese when he sent out to promote one software program few months ago.

Today I am sending you this message that might be the most important email you ever receive.

Okay... That sounds kinda "hypey" doesn't it?

Well, maybe it does. But the fact of the matter is, I am about to tell you about something that very well may change your life -- especially if you are truly interested in building a solid income online.

As you probably know by now, I've been singing the praises of "VRE" (Virtual Real Estate creation) for over a year now. The online advertising industry has rebounded from the big "Dot Com" crash that happened just 5 years ago. More money than ever is being pumped into online advertising today than ever before. And setting up a VRE 'empire' is one of the best ways for you to make money online.

In fact, VRE is very much like the "gold rush" that happened with .COM domain names. Wouldn't you like to be able to go back to 1994 and buy almost any .COM domain name you wanted? Just think of how much money you would make by turning around and selling single domains for as much as $250,000
or more!

But, unfortunately, we can't go back in time and take advantage of that opportunity that has now passed. HOWEVER...

What we *can* do is take advantage of lucrative new opportunities. And VRE is one of the best I've seen since I've been marketing online since 1990.

That's right. One of the BEST in the history of the Internet.

And here's the greatest thing about this opportunity...

Unlike the .COM gold rush and other past opportunities, VRE is going to be around practically FOREVER. So it's not going to just go away and no longer make money.

BUT...

There's a very important reason that you ABSOLUTELY MUST take action *today* if you want to make a ton of money with your own VRE empire...

You see, as time goes on, more and more and more and more people are going to get into the VRE 'game'. Competition is going to get tougher. It will become harder and harder to get tons of free traffic
from the search engines. It is going to get MUCH harder to make easy profits.

Plain and simple. VRE will eventually become something that's very difficult to make a lot of money with. It doesn't mean that there won't always be a decent opportunity to create VRE type sites and make money (even 10 years from now) but single sites won't make as much money as they can today.

FACT: If you want to make as much money as possible online, there are certain things you must absolutely start doing RIGHT NOW.

As you probably know, one of the most critical components for getting free search engine traffic is to get
incoming links to your site from other sites. Because of this, the people that act NOW and start creating sites and getting these links together will have a MAJOR advantage over people that try to get into the VRE game in the future.

Why?

It's simple. Once you have a certain number of incoming links to your site and it gives you higher search engine rankings, your site will build STABILITY in the rankings.

In other words, it will be harder and harder for competition to beat your page rankings. AND since you will get more traffic than "newcomers" to your market, you'll be able to have links on your pages that invite other sites to TRADE LINKS with you -- giving you more incoming links and GROWING YOUR ADVANTAGE over future competition.

So it's critical that you get things going TODAY if you want to take advantage of this awesome opportunity.
