These days, I have some friends who ask me the question or who are interested in creating websites like I do to make money and earn some extra income. In this article, I will tell you what I think about it.
Living Your Passion

Making Money on the Internet
What you need to know is that making money on the internet is increasingly difficult but there are still many opportunities to earn some.
If at the start, you do it for the money, I think you will quickly become disillusioned.
For example, I am passionate about travel and I think about nothing else. I want to do many things and I found a way to do it by combining several aspects of my personality (Passionate about travel, “geek”, enterprising and self-taught). That’s why I have travel websites.
If you are not passionate about what you do, you will earn nothing.

Significant Working Time
What you need to know: when you embark on the adventure, it requires a lot of work to train yourself, learn new things, and improve.
For example, in my case: I worked between 30 and 35 hours per week the first year. I trained myself for hundreds of hours, I stopped sports, I stopped watching American series, I stopped learning foreign languages, reduced the number of evenings out with friends. I made many sacrifices and it paid off because I now earn a salary but not everyone has this success.

Success Does Not Come Immediately.
If you want everything now and quickly, you will give up very quickly because finding the right techniques and training takes time. It often takes several attempts before succeeding, it will not happen on the first try. I worked tirelessly for 4 months before earning my first euros and I think I was lucky. Some take even more time than that.

Having a Mentor
If you want to succeed, you need to be well surrounded and a mentor is necessary. My brother and my cousin have an LED e-commerce. I was greatly inspired by them and other people. In the end, it helped me a lot. Now, I am their mentor for websites.

Thinking It’s Easy
You already understood it with my other advice. It is not enough to follow a method and be good to succeed. You have to be at the right time and know how to do it.
It is not enough to reproduce a pattern to succeed. Proof: I invested in several sites for more than 500 euros, it only brought me 100 euros in 6 months and I worked on them for hundreds of hours.
If you want to make money, you must meet a demand, have a business plan, know how to make money, that is to say know “marketing”.
If you still want to get started, I wish you good luck 😀
