I started at limit, .25/.50 online and was about a 3BB/100 winner there. It was such a slow process that I topped-up my online roll to $500 and move up to .5/1. Clearing bonuses and running 2BB/100 helped me get to 1/2 and then 2/4 ($2k roll) in about 50k hands or so. I then made it all the way up to 5/10 until I ran into a lot more aggressive players and eventually had a big downswing and withdrew my online roll and swore off the game.
HOWEVER, Neteller stuck $120 or some of mine online and I determined I would learn NL and grind it up. My biggest break early on was winning a $4 180man on PS for $215+ and that really helped me take shots at 25 and 50nl. I couldn't tell you the number of hands, but it was a good amount. I'm still not sure if I was a a winner at 25nl on PS/UB but when I moved to AP the games were so fishy that I started crushing for 10ptb/100 at 25nl and 50nl which helped me move up quickly.
