noob aspiring same as you. I've been reading lots of shit about AM/IM. And I spent a good month learning basic webdev.

I believe you should concentrate on one first. Webdev is fairly difficult and you are dealing with a completely different discipline than AM. There's so many super talented designers/developers out there. I don't know about you but I really started struggling with trying to learn javascript so I kind of quietly stopped studying. I also let the thoughts creep in about "what the hell am i going to design? how am i going to find clients?" I should have kept going.

Once you figure out the javascript stuff, It's not a bad idea though, you have some power to add specific stuff, I have no idea what? I think you aren't bound by online software and services like AM bloggers, without these services would cripple their website. Also I hear you don't need to be a super god at building, despite the uncapped learning curve. You're just going to make some basic sites for businesses. And you can start seeking out some rich clients.

With AM, the problem seems to be that technically most websites that exist on the internet, in one way or another, are AM sites. Basically you're competing against millions and millions of websites. Even with a niche, some awesome top websites have broad enough categories that visitors will probably go to them instead. And there's the ever changing google algorithm. You have to wait 6-12 months before ranking? And once you do, they will keep you guessing on how and why the hell you lost your most of your goddamn traffic.

So your discipline in AM/IM will be on being a content creator and marketer. And from what I'm understanding, there's so many great tools, you don't have to dread over building the damn website, you can just start. Action taking will be making articles, updating, adding features, little tweaks. Very beginner friendly. And great content gets rewarded.

I say do the AM first.

no prob man. I'm still at step zero, but I'm about to reach step one because...

I bought my very first domain! It took me about a week to come up with a name and I love it! And I got hosting too.

Picking the right host is very important, it's the foundation of your website. And if your site goes down or something fucks up, you want to be dealing with great customer service. This is something I care about since I'm a beginner. Be careful of the stuff people always shill like bluehost/siteground/godaddy. Top bloggers and AMers aren't using those, and they have no idea what's out there. They haven't bothered to check in on all the complaints these services are receiving. We need to be concerned about this. The great news is there's an assload of good hosting services out there and they have all the bells and whistles that these other sites use. I just did some research on https://www.reddit.com/r/webhosting/ there's a lot of great info in here. I went with veerotech in the sidebar, they had a sweet blackfriday deal. And they seem to have a great reputation with customer service. But you can ultimately pick whatever you want.

BTW to any of you aspiring AMers, need to check out namesilo for a name registrar. I think you're getting potentially better value with them. There's a 1$ off coupon and you can essentially pay $6 for a .com and free WHOIS to keep your privacy.

ALSO If you haven't already, try to buy a hosting service TODAY! This is probably the last chance you'll see great hosting deals until next year. But even if you don't rush, shared hosting is so cheap anyway. You won't feel too bad if you miss it.

Crossposting from another thread

Just got off the phone with my town's Chamber of Commerce, they're basically walking me through the process of starting a business. They're going to help me get free assistance and development support. It's actually insane how good the business assistance programs in America are, if you take the time to reach out and call them.

I feel like Paul Ryan. I feel like the Koch Brothers. Why haven't more small-town people caught onto this? You need a network! You need to connect with the people who are already successful, and use their resources to help you empower yourself to start a business.

Yea I'm doing it full time, last year my income came down to 45k a year when I only got items from stores, midway I swapped to more auctions where I got most of my income. This year is looking to be 70k with my lowest month being 2k and my highest month being 11.3k. I bet it would be easy to break 100k with a warehouse and buying all the broken machines you can.

But to be very honest I am still trying to figure out if any of you is actually making money with ideas like/similar to the ones in op's post or if this is collaborative LARPing you guys do here.

Use the poster board for a nice white background
Use the 10$ in a thrift store on an item you checked online for the current price compared and try for at least 200% profit
Use the phone for a picture
Then when someone buys you can buy shipping labels through ebay and send it
Then ebay will hold the money until the item makes it to the buyer

True, but as customer support at a host I can tell you that your personal knowledge will be much more important. 9 out of 10 times your site has not gone down because of us. A little bit of DNS knowledge would have allowed you to tell this in 30 seconds. Instead you call up and whinge to us about your site being down and threaten to cancel your "massive" hosting contract if we don't fix it. Protip: we don't care

Yes, just like ITT. But I was told here >>11913065 that no LARPing is going on ITT.

>>11913582

This btw is why I think most here are indeed LARPing: Why is that most of you want to read about how to earn money via self employment? I find it utterly naive to believe a book or an online article will tell you this. This is like the whole day trading industry: 'Book this course for 999 USD, man, and I will make you rich!'

EDIT: Day trading is indeed listed as an /entg/-official source of income. I have no other question any more.

>>11914479

Nah, not so nice, unless he'd told you about the margin. Selling furniture online is not hard, but it by no means goes by itself to do this profitably. Where does he get his supply in such a way so he has an actual margin?

>>11924102

Buy low, sell high? What else do you think? He buys chinkshit for 'low' and sells it 'high' - hopefully he actually HAS accounted for tax/tarifs/P&P and the like, because this will fuck with his margin.

Is there any money in blogging?

Idk even know I would just pick topics I'm interested in and write articles randomly. Like one blog for cooking recipes, another for various political ideas I have, etc.

I assume you can just sign up with some service for free that pays out adsense revenue and optimize the blog in a way that it gets more traffic.

>>11927578

First: I criticize what I seriously feel is neither in order nor healthy ITT. Second: It would be beneficial for some of you ITT to realize that being self employed in the way it is envisioned here, first and foremost involves having either a service or a product that sells in a way so one is able to have a proper margin. It is not the way to be an entrepreneur, the hosting service, the business card, the logo, your attitude/mindset, the color you pick for some branding, some bullshit business wisdom or any other minor, diversionary crap that makes you a successful entrepreneur. [It is usually exactly these unimportant, minor things business advise is given to you at a price, because it is a business in itself.] Instead it is the material part: "Where do I get a for price b to sell it to c for price d where b<d." THIS is what you all should be talking about. And, of course, no one does, because this is the actual thing worth protecting: It is knowledge that literally is worth money, which no one is going to give away for free, I fear.

Why didn't you just say that instead? I understand and appreciate an honest critique and some tough love or hard truth. That is a good thing. But your initial approach is dickish and not helpful. If you phrased it the way you did in the post I'm replying to it would be more helpful. Anons like you come here and get hostile or rude for no reason. Usually leaving one post. If you didn't intend to discourage us why be such an asshole? I mean read your posts dude.

At the same time I advertise my own real estate brokerage in the back seat and have made some clients which had led to commissions of $14k, $10k, about a dozen rental leads at around $2k average.
