There are so many “Make Money Online” products out there that it can sometimes be difficult to know what’s a scam from what isn’t. The unfortunate fact is that there are many unethical money-hungry scam artist out there that have perfected the art taking advantage of people who don’t know better. Fortunately, there are some simple ways that you can equip yourself so that you do not fall prey to these wicked people.
So how do you protect your pockets from these guys? By doing your research.
Lets say you head about an “Amazing product” that is making many people millions of dollars. The website looks legit and has many testimonials from “average people” just like you and I. Don’t buy on impulse, because there is a very high probability that you will regret your decision later.
How to do your research
A great place to start uncovering the juicy details of any online program is with Google. Type the name of the product or marketer into the search engines to see if there are any obvious scam reports. Do searches with the name followed by terms like “scam” and “review” and see what information you can uncover. However, while doing this type of research, be aware that many marketers use the word “scam” to lure you into a nice detailed (and positive) review of the product.
After doing these google searches, you will potentially find many articles dealing with the product. Always read these pages very carefully, with the intention of getting as much information about what the product/service is about.
You should also be aware that with just about every product/service out there, there will be a disgruntled customer or two. Some people can be impatient and even angry if they encounter a minor technical difficulty and don’t get a response within 30 minutes. Other, more dishonest individuals, try to tarnish the reputation of products to attempt to reduce competition.
The main thing you are looking for is that that the positive reviews far outweigh the negative ones. If not, it is better to stay away from that product/service. It is better to be safe than sorry.
In my opinion, the best way to find good quality program is by getting personal recommendations from trusted sources. There are a few persons that I consider to be my mentors. Most of the time when I am interested in finding out about a topic, I check with them to see what/who they recommend. By doing so, I know that I will find quality programs because I trust their judgment.
Find honest people who know more than you do, and trust their recommendation. They wouldn’t want to risk hurting their own reputation by providing you with a poor product recommendation.
So, the take home message is – NEVER trust the claims of the website/marketer. Even screenshots of earnings can be falsified. Do your own research and make sure you understand EXACTLY what you are getting into before you take the plunge. If you are investing your time and money, you want to be sure it’s a good program beforehand.
There is one more VERY IMPORTANT point that needs to be emphasized when it comes to making money online. There is a myth circulating around the internet that it is possible to make a lot of money without working hard. This might not be something that you want to hear, but the fact of the matter is that THAT’S A HUGE LIE. This concept is sold by many online programs and it is a concept that works, because it aroused the fantasies of unsuspecting individuals.
Yes, there are people who make lots of money online without working too hard. However, in order to reach where they are, there was A LOT of work that had to be done. Years of learning, many failures and (hopefully) many successes. Do NOT believe that you can immediately do what they do without investing a considerable amount of time and effort.

How To Make LOTS of Money Online – The Internet Guru’s Secret
Making money online is not easy. However, if do a search for “Make Money Online” in google, you will find over 200 MILLION websites, many of which will try to convince you that you can make easy money. If you buy this eBook or join that membership site, you are minutes away from uncovering the secrets of online riches.
Many Money-Making Internet “Guru’s” show you their bank PayPal and Clickbank accounts with tens of thousands of dollars in one month or even a few days and try to convince you that it is an easy process that you can do IF you just pay them some money and get their repackaged product that holds the “Key To Success”
However, the fact of the matter is that it took them A LOT OF WORK to get to where they are, in order for them to reap the benefits of being able to work less now and make more money in one month than many people make in one year.
I might not be telling you what you want to hear, but it is the truth. I’ve had MANY people contact me asking me what they can do to make a bunch of money now. I do have a simple answer to that. You can make a bunch of money now by winning the lottery. Otherwise, you will have to do what all other Money-making gurus have done – Use proven strategies and WORK to build a system that will pay off in the long run.
I fell for the hype a few times before. I got into High Yield Investment Projects in the past. I was excited because I could earn anywhere between 40 and 90% return in just one month. It was an awesome dream and I bought into it – so much so that I took half of my wedding money and invested it into that “sure thing”. Needless to say, I did not spend as much on my wedding as I thought I would.
Then there are those who are just lucky. Back in college, I had a friend who convinced me to get into investing in the stock market. They had put $1,800 into a penny stock and from one day to the next, it increased in value (luckily) from $1,800 to $25,000. When I heard about that, I could not believe my ears. I decided to take $4,800 of my tuition money and invested into stock. I remember the value of my stock fluctuating between $4,200 and $5,400 a few times.
Then, from one day to another, something terrible happened to the company and the value of my stock dropped about $2,000. Too emotional to pull out with such a loss, I decided to keep my money in until the value “came back up”. Unfortunately, that never happened and I didn’t pull out until the value of my stock was a whopping $136.
Was it just that I was unlucky? No, it wasn’t. It was that I was looking for a Get Rich Quick scheme at the time. I had been convinced that there was a trick to making money on the internet, and that some of these people knew the trick. If only I could get into what they are doing, I would never have to worry about finances again. I mean, just think about it – If he made $25,000 out of $1,800, can you imagine how much money I could make out of $4,800? I can, and the answer was $136.
So Leslie, what’s with all the Doom and Gloom?
Why am I telling you all of this? The answer is pretty simple. I want you to get the understanding that making money online (at least in the initial stages), takes A LOT of STUDY and WORK! That’s the unknown secret of Internet Marketing Gurus. Anyone can make a few hundred dollars. To be quite honest, you can make a few hundred dollars in your FIRST MONTH as a Freebie Trader. To be even MORE honest, it’s much harder to profit $2,000+ each and every month, which is the reason I built this blog, and so many other people have their blogs on Internet Marketing – To save you the struggles that we had in getting going.
So those are the cold hard facts, and I REALLY want you to be aware of that, so that you can know what to expect if you are looking to make a full time income online.
So then what’s the point of trying?
I’m glad you asked. Although it takes a lot of work to get stuff going online, if you do things in the right way, you can set yourself up for success in a way that you can eventually reduce the amount of time you spend working, and leverage what you already did to make A LOT of money while doing minimal work on your own. The more known I become in the Internet marketing niche, the more successful people I get to meet. I know people now who can work between 5 minutes and 2 hours daily and make anywhere between $10,000 and $70,000 in one month. However, it took some work and careful planning to reach to where they are now.
Right now, I’m starting to reap the benefits of the kind of work that it takes to reach that level. When I started as a Freebie Trader, I literally worked every free minute (considering I also have a full-time job) specifically on Freebies to build up to where I was making $2,000 in pure profit per month. Right now, if I were to work an hour daily, I can easily make that much and beyond. However, my plan by the summer is to be making at least $10,000 in pure profit on a monthly basis. So I continue to work, but in a strategic way, with definite goals in mind, while educating myself to where I understand what it takes.
So what does it take Leslie?
The first thing it takes is a CHANGE in MINDSET! I know, you’ve heard it before, but it’s the absolute truth. I’m not going to give you some sort of 5 step plan to online success. That almost makes it sound too easy. What I am going to do is provide you with resources. I’m doing it this way because I’m NOT trying to sell you some sort of dream. Actually, yes I am trying to sell you a dream. A dream that can only come through if you make the decision that it has to come through.
I would like to take you on a journey over the next few weeks. A journey to success. In actuality, I would like to ask you to journey along with me. I will be providing you with resources that I am using and will continue to use that have contributed to my growing online success and if you implement what is taught in those resources, your success will follow. DO not worry, I’m not talking about taking your money. I’m talking resources such as websites, books etc. Valuable information, that will not only save you time in the long run, but also help you take the first step of changing your mindset.
I’m not asking you for money in exchange for me sharing a bunch of information with you or promising to show you the steps to online riches. I’m asking you to walk next to me as I take my journey to online riches. You will be seeing what I’m doing, while I’m doing it and also be able to see the results of what I’m doing while they are happening.
It’s almost like a book club. However, it’s much more than that. It is what I believe will form the basis for your success. While we take this journey, we will have to hold each other accountable for the tasks that we will have to implement. I will check up on you, and hope you will do the same for me. 2 heads are better than one, and 5 heads are better than 2. So if you are willing to join me on this journey, let me know by leaving your feedback in the comments area of this post. Tweet

Two lessons I learned from my movie-making experience
First off, let me start with an apology. This is the longest I’ve ever gone without writing to my blog. It has been 11 days, and that’s unacceptable. However, I do have a valid reason (along with a lesson).
As many of my regular readers know, in my “real life” I am a Science and Math teacher at a Christian Boarding Academy. If you know anything about working at a boarding school, you would know that it is NOT a 9 to 5 job. It’s more of a “You keep working” type of job.
I am also the Freshman class sponsor (among other things). The great thing about being Freshman Class sponsor is that you don’t have much to do. The biggest thing is putting together 1 program for a morning church service.
Well, Saturday was that day for my class and my kids had the “bright idea” to put together a movie for their program. Since I have recently acquired a nice video camera with some powerful editing software and other cool equipment, I thought it was a “great idea” and was very excited. What I did NOT predict was the amount of work it would take to get it done.
The Unexpected Work
We started filming a few weeks ago. I had to organize the times for the students to meet so that we could get things going. The problem was that although the students LOVED the idea, they HATED the amount of “work” they had to do. They complained over and over again. “Why do we have to do it so many times? Why do we have to meet again? I don’t want to do this! This is boring! I thought this would be more fun!” These were all very popular questions and statements, to the extent that it felt like I was a dentist trying to pull teeth (not to offend any dentists that might be reading this).
What was even more unexpected was the amount of editing work that needed to be done. Without exaggeration, whenever I wasn’t teaching a class or filming (or eating, sleeping, or using the rest room), I was editing video, up until 2am on a daily basis. My entire life was consumed with this movie. What made it extremely frustrating was the lack of cooperation from the students.
The two Lessons Learned and how they apply to Business.
1. It takes work. As with my “movie production experience”, it takes a lot of work to run a business. Those of you that have been reading my blog for a while would know that although a main focus of my blog is Freebie Trading, my ultimate purpose is bigger than freebies. It’s helping people be successful on the internet. I’m not going to lie to you. It takes a lot of work to make money online. Anything worth having is worth fighting for.
2. You can’t/shouldn’t do all the work yourself. If I had more people helping me, it would have been MUCH easier. I now understand why there are so many credits at the end of a movie. It takes a lot of people to make such a production. The beautiful thing about the internet is that you can find people to help you with tasks that can make your life much easier, and your business even more efficient. Most online businesses start as a one-man show, but as things start picking up, outsourcing becomes a necessity. This is something I struggled with for a while. I always had the idea that “if you want things done right, you have to do them yourself”. The problem with that if that if you do everything yourself, you won’t have time for anything, which I have seen first hand.
So how did it turn out?
Glad you asked. On one hand I can say that it turned out VERY WELL. The kids loved it and it was probably one of the best programs they had seen at the school ever. They were all very impressed because it was very “Hollywood-like” – from the screenplay to the effects, narration to the credits, everything was very well-done.
On the other hand I can say that it turned out VERY POORLY. I say that because over the last week, everything else suffered. I didn’t grade one homework assignment that week, nor did I spend time with my wife. At the end of Saturday, I had a call from a concerned friend wondering if I fell off the planet.
Will I ever do it again?
Not in the same way. If I ever try to make a movie again, it will be with people who want to make a movie. By that, I mean that they want to put in the work to make it happen. That way, much of the labor can be shared.
In the same way, I’ve decided that in my business, I will help people who want to be helped, as opposed to trying to convince people that they should want to be helped. The second takes too much time and energy and the first is more rewarding.
Oh, one funny thing – at the end of it all, I announced to the class that I would be making the dvd available for purchase. One of the students had the nerve to ask “Why do we have to pay for it since we did all the work?” I’ll let you get the lesson from that one Tweet

Affiliate Marketing Part II: Why Some New Marketers Fail
People who are new to affiliate marketing are often excited with the prospect of earning thousands of dollars a month, without the hard work of developing and packaging their own product. After all, there is an easier transition from the pressure of creating your own product to just focusing on marketing a product.
It’s almost the perfect win-win situation. Customers get what they want while you get to give valuable help and earn commissions in the process. Is it really that simple? Not by a long shot.
You will still need to flex that creative marketing muscle to attract visitors to get interested in your affiliate links. What people do no not know is that affiliate marketing is not a ‘one-stop-shop’. There’s no fool proof automatic system that will do all the work for you. Truth be told, there are no hard and fast rules to ensure what works and what doesn’t. Here are sine if the reasons why some marketers fail:
1. No proper training.
Newbies who come to affiliate advertising do not realize that they have their work cut out for them. It’s not as easy as just posting a few ads here and there. It’s not an exact science, and it can cost you and your host valuable business if you make too many mistakes. Not only that, it can even ruin reputations if you deliver sub standard performance for a well known product.
2. Rushing across many mediums and markets.
Newcomers who jump in different programs without a through understanding of their niche markets are setting themselves up for disappointment. Choosing the right niche is important. A good rule of thumb is to choose a product or service that you will be happy to use yourself.
3. Duplicating content of the host business.
Most host businesses cut off affiliates who do not offer their own unique approach to marketing a product. It’s really not cool to copy an established product’s own marketing material. This only makes you compete with your own host in Google rankings, and just spams the list with duplicate content. Visitors are more likely choose between you and your host, or worse, you can get ignored because your affiliate link is as obvious as a banner ad.
4. Spamming
Desperation doesn’t look good on any marketer. If you’re into stealing email lists or spamming through other media, you will just hurt your host’s reputation and even decrease sales big time.
5. Giving poor content with no value.
Part of being a good affiliate is paying close attention to value creation. The most popular sites are often those with real and practical solutions that answer a need or a problem. If you do not have what people are looking for, they would not bother listening to your pitch.
Which affiliate expert is the best one for you?
Getting the right people to show you the way may be overwhelming at times. Too many people are claiming to be experts in the field. Some even make exaggerated success stories when all they do is just talk about earning money. You know you are with the right teachers when they offer value and nothing else.
The Wealthy Affiliate is one of the best programs I know of that can give you the best value for what you are paying for. They have road tested effective and proven techniques to make your affiliate business succeed. They offer a comprehensive training course with complete and reliable support.

Affiliate Marketing Part III: Which Program is Right for You?
Why Affiliate Programs are Attractive
Joining a program offers many benefits, with lots of opportunities for growth at a pace that’s comfortable for you. First, you don’t have to shell out a lot of money to join, all you need is a computer, internet access and you’re good to go! You don’t even have to purchase the product you’re promoting.
Depending on your time and effort, this kind of online business can offer a big pay off. As an affiliate, your role is limited to marketing and nothing more. No worries over order processing, inventory or shipping are involved.
Types of Affiliate Programs
If you have made up your mind to try affiliate marketing but are still unsure about what steps to take, there are many free resources available on the web. Here’s a guide on the different types of programs popular today:
Pay per sale
This offers the biggest commission, sometimes maybe even up to 70% of a sale. Of course this requires more hard work and you will need aggressive marketing tactics to convert visitors to outright customers.
Pay per lead
You will be paid a commission for any visitor that does something besides click on a link or banner ad. The customer should have taken advantage of a free offer, or joined a membership list.
Pay per click
This is the most common and popular, although it’s the least rewarding. Visitors will just have to click on your affiliate link for you to get a commission. Nevertheless, you will still need to apply effective marketing strategies to have them interested in your advertisement link.
Scrutinizing Program Benefits
With all the attractive benefits affiliate marketing has to offer, you may be tempted to believe some that are too good to be true. Avoid scams by verifying important information with the following questions:
1. Does the retailer have a good reputation?
Keep in mind that any product advertised on your site is a reflection of your taste. Pick something that you like and may actually use.
2. Does this program have a reasonable cost per benefit ratio?
Not all affiliate terms are the same, so make sure your joining fee gets you the best value for your money.
3. Is the affiliate system user friendly?
A good retailer makes it easy for any affiliate to use their system without special technical skills or knowledge needed.
4. Does the retailer offer generous support?
You can also spot a good program if the retailer offers prompt and friendly response about product inquiries and other issues.
5. How does the retailer track referrals?
Here’s the important part: each program uses “cookies” to track referrals from your site. Cookies are software programs that monitor activity but usually expire after a specified amount of time. Check if your retailer offers cookies with a generous time period, with a minimum of at least 60 days or more.
Each marketing program has its own strengths and weaknesses; you should do your homework on the niche that’s right for you.
Finding the Right Mentor

to Constantcontent.com. Unlike Constant content, they take out 20% of your

money online because there aren’t any set topics available here.
42.Methodshop.com- This web site uses blogs for income. You make a blog and you
place it to this web site. Not sure how it works but the posts that you place on that

writers. Mistakes are not tolerated here, so for those who aren’t good at writing
shouldn’t come to this web site. You are required to offer a sample article as a little
taste of what you can do for them.
44.Helium.com- This is a site based on knowledge. If you know a lot about a particular
subject, then you should come here to try and earn some money. They allow you to

web site may offer, you can request a topic that’s more suitable for you. They also
allow you to win journalism rewards, making you more recognizable in the writing
community. They offer writing competitions that offer cash prizes ranging from $10
to $120. It’s a great way for someone to earn a good amount of money.
45.Rentaghostwriter.com- As the name of this web site suggests, you are a ghostwriter
who is waiting for someone to purchase your writing. Besides the fact that the web
site is surrounded by Google Adsense ads, it’s a pretty good way to earn money
online.
46.Wordfirm.com- Word firm is one of those experienced web sites that have been
around for years. This web site is looking for experienced writers, copyeditors, and
graphic designers. The writing for this web site is very strict and could be
troublesome for those who haven’t mastered the art of writing.
47.Hubpages.com- Hubpages is my personal favorite site to write for. There are
different types of writers (they call us hubbers). There are regular writers, and then
there are flagship writers. A regular writer doesn’t get paid to write, but earn money
based on page impressions and affiliate programs. Flagship writers get paid in
between $25 and $40 per article (hub) they publish. They also get to use affiliate
programs like any other writer on the site. Flagship writers have a limit of 30
flagship hubs per month. There are four different available affiliate programs that
work with Hubpages. You could use Amazon, Ebay, Kontera, and Google Adsense.
That’s 4 different strings of income, not to mention the money earned from
Hubpages itself. The article writing is very creative. They allow you to place images,
news, rss feeds, and videos into your written content to better explain yourself.
48.Triond.com- Triond allows you to write articles and earn money based on page
impressions. You do not get a flat payment for every article you publish. The more
impressions you get, the more money you will make.

free community. Something like a forum site mixed with a chat site. You make
friends, write, and make comments, share ideas, and get paid, that simple.

post images, videos, and written content on pages and earn money from page
impressions.

blogs. It is one of the largest directories for tech bloggers on the internet today.

write. They pay you quickly at each weeks end. Sometimes they may run a little late
or you may not receive any money if you have not published any content which
would allow you to make any money online during that week. The articles that are
needed to be written are easy to write. You can only create 10 projects at a time.
38.About.com- About doesn't always hire people, but if you are one of those fortunate
people that are, then you are in for some serious income. You write articles about
things that people want to know about, thats why the site is called About. The
average minimum payments made online using About are around $700 per month
within the first 2 years of being a member of this website.Those who have been
members for longer are reduced to a minimum of $500 per month, depending on
how good your work is. Some people have reported making over $2,000 per month.
39.Dailyarticle.com- Daily article is a new article web site. It shows many similarities
to Constantcontent.com. Unlike Constant content, they take out 20% of your
earnings compared to constant content’s 35%. One thing about this web site is that
you give away the full rights to articles or writing material that you have created.
That means once you sell your writing, you can’t resell it again because you have no
copyright over it anymore.
40.Reviewstream.com- Review Stream pays you to write reviews. Essentially, you
may review anything that you feel like. The minimum rate per article is usually
$1.50 per review that you write. The results change on how you do on your reviews.
You must meet minimum requirements on your reviews to make any money. The
minimum payout through PayPal is $50
41.Families.com- This site usually pays people $3 per 300 word blog/post for
beginners and $4 per post after completion of the 90 day probationary period. That’s
a really easy way to make money. You can write about anything that you put your
heart to. Nothing gets excluded at this web site. This is the easiest way to earn
money online because there aren’t any set topics available here.
42.Methodshop.com- This web site uses blogs for income. You make a blog and you
place it to this web site. Not sure how it works but the posts that you place on that
blog could be worth in between $20 and $200 per post.
43.Suite101.com- Suite101 is a professional writing web site for the experienced
writers. Mistakes are not tolerated here, so for those who aren’t good at writing
shouldn’t come to this web site. You are required to offer a sample article as a little
taste of what you can do for them.
44.Helium.com- This is a site based on knowledge. If you know a lot about a particular
subject, then you should come here to try and earn some money. They allow you to
request topics to write about, so if you do not want to write about something that this
web site may offer, you can request a topic that’s more suitable for you. They also
allow you to win journalism rewards, making you more recognizable in the writing
community. They offer writing competitions that offer cash prizes ranging from $10
to $120. It’s a great way for someone to earn a good amount of money.
45.Rentaghostwriter.com- As the name of this web site suggests, you are a ghostwriter
who is waiting for someone to purchase your writing. Besides the fact that the web
site is surrounded by Google Adsense ads, it’s a pretty good way to earn money
online.
46.Wordfirm.com- Word firm is one of those experienced web sites that have been
around for years. This web site is looking for experienced writers, copyeditors, and
graphic designers. The writing for this web site is very strict and could be
troublesome for those who haven’t mastered the art of writing.
47.Hubpages.com- Hubpages is my personal favorite site to write for. There are
different types of writers (they call us hubbers). There are regular writers, and then
there are flagship writers. A regular writer doesn’t get paid to write, but earn money
based on page impressions and affiliate programs. Flagship writers get paid in
between $25 and $40 per article (hub) they publish. They also get to use affiliate
programs like any other writer on the site. Flagship writers have a limit of 30
flagship hubs per month. There are four different available affiliate programs that
work with Hubpages. You could use Amazon, Ebay, Kontera, and Google Adsense.
That’s 4 different strings of income, not to mention the money earned from
Hubpages itself. The article writing is very creative. They allow you to place images,
news, rss feeds, and videos into your written content to better explain yourself.
