Are You Building an Internet Business ?

I have been thinking about this question a lot lately as I have been around enough to see what works and what doesn’t in internet marketing and I know it is easy to chase the latest method or trick to make money online but over time do those methods last.

I have been asking myself recently if  I am creating a solid foundation for passive income online. Many internet marketers have experienced the disaster of having their main source of income online shut off overnight like a Google adwords account closed or Facebook advertising account ban or even a change in Google’s search algorithm that caused your sites to be dropped from the rankings(or even deindexed).

There is a constant onslaught of make money online products and latest tricks or tips for outsmarting google,etc….but is that what you want to base your business on ? It is important to think about how you can create a lasting income source online whether it is though quality niche sites, or creating a product, or even just buying an existing online business with a proven track record. There are hundreds of ways to make money online but unfortunately most people get caught up in chasing the latest “easy, push button method” which usually are just hype.

Point of this post is to provide a reminder to step back and evaluate what you have been doing online. Ask yourself:

1. Are you constantly chasing the latest hyped-up product or are you staying focused on a known, proven method that works (and really truly understanding it.)
2. Do you actually LIKE what you are doing online or are you just doing something that you hope makes you the quickest money ?
3. Are you building assets online that will generate income if you stopped working ?
4. Do you have goals and an outline for how to be successful with you online efforts ?

Those question above are some of the things I have thought about and hopefully will help you really take a minute to evaluate what you doing with your online business.
