About Lynn Terry
Lynn,
This is a great idea! You have soooo much valuable content and having a post that groups some key topics together is very helpful, not to mention the interior links :)!
The internet is in it's infancy!
I think I heard a statistic that 1 in every 8 households worldwide have internet access, or maybe that was in the U.S., I don't remember.
Anyway, at one time, only 1 in every 8 households had electricity. At one time, only 1 in every 8 households had a telephone. At one time, only 1 in every 8 households had a television.
My point is, there is almost an infinite number of ideas left out there. Provide the most amount of people with the best solution to the most desperate problem.
Kind of broad, I know. I'm just trying to encourage you to think outside of the box.
Find a problem that badly needs to be solved. Find the best solution to that problem. Find your target market (who needs the solution the most). Do some keyword research. Make your own website that explains the problem, and your solution to it. Make sure your website is SEO friendly, user friendly, and has a call to action. Create content that also explains the problem, and your solution to it. Create a link back to your website in your content, with a call to action. Then distribute your content to as much of your target market as you can.
There, that's a little more specific. I hope that helps.
Good luck!

It's a great point, though. I think of the people 'offline' in my own life and most of them have absolutely no clue what I do or how I do it. I would say 1 in 8 might have the internet but probably 1 in (a much bigger number!) know how to make sales on the internet.
Thanks for the links Lynn - tons of useful information right here.
Incredible amount of information available for free for newbies or anyone interested in IM here on your blog. I need to remember to refer people here more often.
As many questions can be answered by a referral to one of your many helpful guides.
A MUST bookmark for anyone interested in learning IM.
Thanks so much Lynn! This list is very helpful!

Hi Lynn,
Thank you for writing this post and this is a fantastic post. You are a special and gifted person for sharing your ideas and knowledge to all.
Once again i tell you Lynn, every morning my first job is to go to your site and read, learn and take note for me to use. Keep up your good work and thank you
This is just what I needed. A friend of mine is getting into this now. He is a total beginner like I have to show him how to set up a hosting account and how to buy domains. This will be perfect when he has covered the total basics and is ready for some of the interesting stuff.
Most people still can't believe that it is really possible to earn money online haha. That's what stops them from getting into it and having success.
Just so I mentioned it my fav post of the above: Using Keyword Phrases That Make Sales!
Keyword research is probably the most important aspect of seo, and I find a lot of people just jump into a new niche without even thinking about it.
Looking forward to delving into your tutorials!
You are 100% right. Research is the most important step in making money online. So many people come to me after months in the game and complain they are making no money online. 9 times out of 10 it is because they have entered the wrong niche or attacked the right niche with the wrong keywords!
The best of the best !
There's some great information on these posts for newbies as well as more advanced marketers who may have forgotten a few of these things. Keyword research can definitely make or break a site and so many people don't realize that before they jump into making a blog or website. Thanks for the reminders!
I think proper keyword research is an important aspect. I've saved this page to my favorites and will delve into to these tutorials later on and see what new information I can extract from them 😉

Thanks for sharing these valuable information. It such a great help for newbies in keyword research, online tutorial is really a big help.
I'm to weak on writing skills this is my weakess point any suggestions on how to write a good article if your not a skilled writer?
This is an excellent resource you have put together, Lynn. You see, when I first started my blog I thought I'd just write and they'll come but I soon realized that only the right keywords are standing in the gap between me and the volume of traffic (and kind of readers) I wanted. That was when I put a stop at writing until I learnt keyword research.
Thanks, this post is going into my learning lab.
Amazing tutorial, I have not done my keyword research like that.
Your advice are very usefull for me thank you
