Are you feeling like a real latecomer to online selling? Don't. Now is a very good time to catch up. In fact, you don't need to catch up because most of us are having to change lots of our thinking and methods as the Internet grows and develops new patterns and habits. I would venture to say that jumping in now can bring you success much more rapidly than when I first started in 2001.

If you're really brand new and totally clueless as to how to build a website, or the latest and greatest methods of online marketing, my suggestion is to start at Squidoo. This is the easiest way to learn the basics of niche sites and marketing. You can very quickly have a little niche site running -- or even several. These little mini sites are like little incubators for your niche, or a little prototype of what your site will be. Doing it this way allows you to get your feet wet, learn a whole lot in the laboratory, so to speak, and make and correct mistakes quickly before really going live with your project.

What happens when you do build your website? Squidoo helps drive traffic wherever you want to direct it. Squidoo is a very valuable marketing tool for any site, and it's also a potential income source in and of itself. Go make a Squidoo lens (mini site) today. It's free and you'll learn more than if you study Internet marketing without the lab.
