[QUOTE="Kitsune, post: 583700, member: 2928"] Hey there. It's good you've got enthusiasm. You don't really need all those things. Don't pay for a mentor if you don't have to. Don't assume it'll take you two years to get to a decent point. Paid mentor - there are thousands of communities across the net you can join that'll help you out. Original content - like I said in my last post in this thread, providing you know what you're talking about, you never have to run out of content. Technical knowledge - do it with wordpress, and ask other people who are doing it questions. Co-ordinated plan of attack - design site, write posts, link to other people and get them to link back, make product, sell product. Network - RVF is a network. Depending on what your site is about, you've already got loads of built-in networks. Friends, family, co-workers, other forums you visit, twitter. Balls of steel - yeah I guess. But of all the things on the planet that you might have to do, starting a website isn't that scary. The worst thing that can happen is you get 2 views a day for six months and then quit, losing $50 or so. I'd guess the only thing about this to say is to watch Victor's latest video over at boldanddetermined.com, because it contains a great point and the reason most people won't succeed: Confirmation. Most people want to hear that what they're doing is great, and they need to know it'll be a success before they start. If you start a web business, you don't know it's going to succeed. You put in all the effort up front, and hope it turns out. Whether you spend thirty minutes or ten hours a day on your site, your feedback for the first few months will be massively limited. You need to have the determination to fight through it. Anyway, I've written about starting a siteon one of my new projects in a bit more detail if anyone's interested in reading. If not, it's basically a more nuts and bolts inclusive version of my posts in this thread. Something I think that everyone can do (that I've talked about in this thread and that article) is to network proactively. If there's a few of us starting sites, we're not going to cover every subject in the Universe on our own. Linking to each other is the quickest way to establish each other as authorities. The great thing is you could achieve a lot of authority in a short amount of time with 5-10 people posting a blog round-up weekly, so it's easily doable. [/QUOTE]
