subject: Why The Vast Majority Of People Are Unsuccessful At Building A Business Online [print this page] Why did most of the people fail? I believe the reason could be that the whole process of running an internet business is just too complicated for most business seekers.
There are lots of different ways for you to screw up. It pained me to visit some of the peoples websites and notice a dozen glaring mistakes within the first few seconds - blogs that didn't allow permalinks, cutesy headlines with no keywords and phrases incorporated, bad choice of topics, titles on webpages which still use the Wp standard format, ugly bad quality ad designs, hidden or lacking contact info, and so on.
Any one of those mistakes could cripple a site's results. One or more is practically a death sentence. Such mistakes cause problems both for human visitors and search engines like google.
But simultaneously, there was teenagers humming along fine, generating four figures in monthly income after working on their sites for 6-16 months. They did not necessarily get everything right, however they were Internet savvy enough to fix the important problems early.
What bothered me most about this was that people were too often failing because of the technology. Many of them had great ideas and very good content. It was a shame to read some of their articles and think to myself, This is great stuff... too bad no one will ever see it.
The cruel and unfair element of internet business is that when you aren't very Internet savvy, you'll make mistakes with the technical side that you're totally oblivious to. You might get this content side right, but the technology will bite you and cripple your results.
In my "How to Make Money From Your Blog" Article, I did correctly identify this problem and predicted that 99 of 100 people would fail because of it. But it's still a pretty unfair situation.
There are people who can write great content who really deserve to be getting a lot of readers, but because they don't understand permalinks, RSS feeds, pinging, or other technologies, they're doomed before they start.
Once I noticed this happening, I quite simply decided I'd better shut up about encouraging people to run an online business. People kept asking me for fresh articles on the subject, but I didn't think it was a good idea. I was concerned I'd do more harm than good.
