eOneNet.com's Internet marketing coaching seminar is now ranked as the top Internet marketing seminar among the top search engines out of some 137,000 international competitive listings, says Fione Tan, its president and chief executive officer.

eOneNet.com is a home-grown Internet marketing specialist. Tan said this showed that local Internet talent is as good as, if not better than, the top Internet marketing experts in the world.

Entitled "Internet success system: 10-step system to start and turn any Internet business into a cash and profits generator", the seminar is a step-by-step system to help entrepreneurs and business owners make money online.

"Developing a website is just one of the 10 steps to make an Internet business work. The reason why most of the dotcoms failed is because they executed just one of the 10 steps by developing a website, and then did nothing else hoping that sales would just arrive," said Tan.

She said whether a dotcom or traditional business is going online, these 10 steps need to be followed if one wants to make money on the Internet.

They include finding a product that can sell online, determining the profitable business model, identifying an easily targeted niche market, getting a good domain name, creating unique selling proposition for the product and compelling copy writing for the website.

Avryl Au, national of BNIMalaysia.com, who had attended eOneNet.com's seminar, said it was an eye-opener.

"Although my website deals with networking of people which requires face- to-face interaction, I learnt the exact steps to make my website generate more leads from all around Malaysia as well as from overseas," said Au.

Tan said one could cite many excuses for failure such as bad economy or bursting of dotcom bubbles.

"But there in only one recipe for quick success; to learn from those who are successful," she said. "The key to Internet success to follow a proven success system rather than wasting time and money in re-inventing the wheel. That's what we will reveal in our seminars."

eOneNet will be conducting the seminar in Kota Kinabalu, Penang, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore in February. Details are available from www.eOneNet.com
