I teach new entrepreneurs how to build an online empire. An online empire refers to a business that can be run from your home, or from anywhere in the world where you have an internet connection. I currently live in southern California, but I travel every couple of months and continue to build my business.
When I was visiting my family in Finland last summer I was even able to conduct business from their computer for a couple of hours each day. You can do the same exact thing to create a lifestyle based on your dreams and goals.
After taking a look at what was working for me, I came up with what I refer to as the 5 pronged approach to building your online empire. I will go into detail about each of these five prongs later, but first I want to tell you more about getting started online.
First you will need to choose a niche, or an area of specialization. This usually comes from what you have experience in and are passionate about. On the internet you can work in almost any area that you choose.
The first of my 5 prongs is blogging. You blog is your home on the internet, so make sure you are letting people know who you are and what you do. The next prong is article marketing. Write articles regularly and submit them to Ezine Articles, the largest article directory on the internet. This will help people to find you online.
The third prong is social networking on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. These sites have made it possible for newbies to the internet to get started very quickly. The fourth prong is teleseminars and internet radio. Allow people to hear you speak on the topics that you are most knowledgeable about.
All four of these prongs support the fifth prong, which is affiliate marketing. You only make money online when someone buys something. Promoting affiliate products and services is the best way to get started when you do not have a product of your own. You will want to continue promoting other people’s products when you see how much money you can make.
Building my online empire has made it possible for me to live a lifestyle I had only dreamed of in the past. This is based on the freedom I now have in my life. I now enjoy my life much more because I am in charge of both my time and my income. You can do the same exact thing if this is of interest to you.

I like your prongs Connie. I believe that you are right on target with this. I’ve found the key to making this all work is consistency which is the reason so many people fail online. Thanks for this great information.
Thanks for this, Connie. Your consistent clarity and open-handedness are always so helpful – and inspiring!
Your five pronged approach is comprehensive and takes a real commitment. Your experience shows that it also leads to financial rewards and is worth all the time and effort.
