Any method that helps you make money out of the Internet by publicizing a product for sale is Internet marketing.

It is not necessary that the product be yours. Network marketing is a form of Internet Marketing. Network Marketing is a method of marketing where companies use independent representatives to reach potential customers with traditional online and offline marketing methods. Becoming an affiliate for some website that is selling a product is another way to do this. Here you are not selling your own product, but you are publicizing it on the Internet all the same. That is why it fits within the definition of Internet marketing.

Anybody and everybody that has a computer with a reliable Internet connection can enter into Internet marketing. There’s a lot more to be learned and understood before you make the start in this grand opportunity.

You need to have a website or a blog. That’s an absolute must. This is nothing short of an office space. It could be your virtual corporate office. This is what people who don’t know you will see and build an impression about yourself.

It is imperative to partner with an Internet Success Coach. A coach can reduce your learning experience by 18 -24 months assuming that you are coachable and teachable.

Advantages

The biggest advantage is that this is the best way to start a business of your own.

 On the Internet, you don’t need much capital at all. You can set up a business for free and then keep it running through profits that you earn.

Anyone can get into Internet marketing – stay at home mom and dads, teenagers, retirees, disabled people, people who don’t have a home of their own, people who don’t have social security and even able-bodied working men and women who want to make extra income. The trend is shifting toward the Internet anyway. People have become very apprehensive about their offline jobs due to the recession and there has suddenly been a spurt in the number of people joining the Internet “buzz”.

Also consider the tax deductible factor. When you use a portion of your home for your home business that becomes a part of your deductibles. The same applies to the computer that you use.  

The convenience is an excellent factor as well. You don’t have to travel anywhere. You can work in your PJ’s or boxers; you don’t have to physically impress the people you are dealing with. Some people feel that they are freer when they are chatting online than they are when they are speaking face-to-face.

There is no limit to what you can earn working online. Two to five years of hard work and you can change your financial course forever.

Disadvantages

Scam operators. Yes, there are scammers. You have to be honest; you have to make sure that you are dealing with people in the right way. Though there is always a bit of skepticism connected with any online dealing, if you are honest, you will make it through.
