First, get it through your head that making money online isn't going to be easy. You need to preserve and keep hanging in there even when you feel like you're a failure.

Second, have a business plan as the dp members have mentioned. Without a plan, you are just like a ship lost at sea with no certain direction to go, you go where the winds blow.

With $300-400 ur best off throwing that into forex or stocks and using maybe only $50 of it for your new site unless you have the experience to buy a pre-existing one with some proven traffic.
