| Building Blocks to Online Success |

In order to build websites that make money there are some basic elements to understand. These are 3 essential elements for establishing a website capable of financial success.
The first element is to target a hungry market in which people are willing to pull out their wallets and spend on what you have to offer. Therefore, having sites that can offer products and information people want badly is a necessity.
The second element is to create a site that naturally leads people through a process. For example, a strategy would be to have an autoresponder. If information is powerful and valuable enough then people will be more than willing to provide their name and email address. In turn, this will benefit both sides in that you will build a mailing list while they get vital info. Many people attempt to go “straight for the throat” and sell to people right away. But by building a relationship, gaining trust, and developing report you will get more than just a sale. In short, the more you give the more you get.
Having a marketing system that is effective is the third element. The more viral a website is the better. This means that people will want to share the information you’re offering and the site will be capable of allowing them to do this easily. An example of this is Myspace and Facebook. By making the website viral it will fit into the way people already use the internet, which is in a social and interactive manner. The greater the mindset for making a website that fits this criteria then the more success it will attract.
A Website needs pillars for a strong foundation, and these elements could make the difference between struggling and making a living online.

I certainly agree to the third one, regarding marketing. It is very important to have a well planned marketing plan, other wise you'll be wasting time and money.
Not sure about the second one tho.

Second element is good. It is pretty much the core of the moneymaking websites. Without is, your online business will merely be just another info-page like the many you see on the net.
eQuote Rocks!

This is a good, if simplified version of what it takes to build a successful business online. I would also add that you should determine what differentiates you from the pack. You really have to think outside the box to find markets/niches that aren't saturated, that are still profitable and able to take in another competitor.
My advice is to build your brand/network online as far as showing you are connected to whatever your industry is. If you are in online marketing, host a local seminar, put out a white paper, do whatever you can to connect to the industry and show you are an authority.
A lot of Internet users only trust "authoritative" websites so that's the key, for many websites, is to truly show that they provide value that can't be found elsewhere. Again, this is all very simplified but a good starting point.

Wouldn't it depend on the site and market as to whether its better to make a sale when the person is on the site than just to get their details. I agree providing valuable information to help customers make the choice is vital though and the more comfortable customers are with your information and products the more likely they are to purchase.
