There are many success stories, but they do not mean that you can create
similar results! This is just simple reality!
I use SBI for creating my site, and I have a million reasons for this, the major
one being that I do not want to waste my time with HTML, or anything that
has to do with that area
plus the forums that you become a member off are *invaluable* for anyone
trying to create a successful online business
but taking into account that is sounds like you want to make money as fast
as possible from an online business, here is the truth
it will take you at least a year to start making any kind of income that you
can live on, this is minimum, of course there are always exceptions, but they
are about as rare as people hitting the lottery
so your best approach would be to find a job, and then sign up for SBI, and
start creating an online business, using a long term approach. All the stuff
written about making money fast online is mostly BS!
Making money online is just as hard as making money offline, and very few
business models actually allow you to put your business on complete
autopilot and go to the islands for vacations. There are exceptions as always
but the majority of people making money onlin spend many hours daily running
their business from their computers, and most likely will continue to do so
if you can't spend five to ten hours per day on your online business, do not
expect that it will make any serious money, this is a myth that you can spend
an hour per day and make $100,000 a year from a site, maybe $10,000 a year
after a few years working on it, but definitely not much more
