If it is making a 'click-click-click' noise really fast when you turn it over, that means that either the solenoid, or the electronic ignition module is busted. Easy and cheap to fix.

If it is not making the click noise, check your battery connection thoroughly. You may need to pour some coke on your battery connections to remove crud.

If you get a jump, and your car starts, but then will not start again, this is because you must allow the alternator enough time to charge up your car's battery. Leave it running for a good 10-15 minutes without the lights or stereo on just to make sure you can start it up again once you get it going.

I hope that helps :P
