I have found in my short time with online training that it can be the small simple things that mean so much to the submissive.

I have also found that reinforcing a few simple things is very helpful. Even if she already does soimething of her own accord telling her she must do these things helps to reinforce that I am in control.

I gave her a checklist to fill out. She is young, has no bdsm experience (and this really is none), almost no sexual experience but is deeply submissive.
Seems like you are on track with the on-line training. Actually a neophyte might be easier, since everything is new and she doesn't expect things to be one way or another (as they might have been with a past Dom).
I was going to mention about words and name calling (or using nick names). I see that you both are from Australia (I had an on-line sub for almost 3 years from there), and in Amercia we use nick names for everything.
One of the first things I do is have her tell me her feelings about Me using certain names (like cunt, whore, slut, pig, cow...etc.) Best to get this out in the beginning then you don't use a word that she reacts badly to. Also, some women have reactions to words because they were used against them in an abusive aituation. Even though your sub has no past BDSM experience, she might have been in a family or other situation where she could have been emotionally or verbally stressed. Always good to talk this out. Actually there is a thread on the forum here that I posted similar remarks in. It is here (http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1791).

We can discuss this training back and forth here if you like. Then others can also add their comments. Alwasys willing to learn new things.

Good luck.
