Make Money Online Sites

I must say, I am not a fan of all of these sites that advertise that they can help make you money online. They might be great at making money online, but do you realize that you won’t. Sure, you may make a few dollars, but you will never make what they make, at all. I don’t understand why people read them to in hopes of one day making money online. IT WON’T HAPPEN! I can explain myself because it isn’t fair to make such exclaims without supporting your argument. It isn’t fair to do so any other way. To start, I have been on the internet for a few years already. Not as many as the giants you will find. I know all the social media giants: youtube, myspace, facebook, twitter, linkedin, etc… I may not be skilled with the internet as much as others, but I have gotten by so far. Even so, I want to explain my situation. All these blogs I have been reading lately are about so and so making a ton of money on the internet and explaining how they do it. Well, to be perfectly honest, they don’t.
Let’s start with John Chow. He seems like a great guy. Don’t get me wrong at all. He makes quite a lot of money with his site John Chow dot com and tries to explain how he makes his money, but to be quite honest, most of his posts have yet to teach me anything. Now, I am not trying to start anything with him, but I would actually like to learn how to make such money on his blog that is supposed to teach me to make money. His last few posts (I am writing this on the very early morning of the 21st of August 21, 2009) are about increasing blogging activity (which if you read is quite common sense, although it could be considered a good reminder), a review of a business forum (points out the flaw on the site which isn’t very great especially when the flaw points out the full path to the forum that provides more than enough information for hackers) for the cost of $500, and a discount on an overly expensive wordpress plugin (with not to mention an affiliate code so he makes money as well). This isn’t the worst, but I want juicy details.
Another well done blog is Shoemoney. I am surprised with Shoemoney. He started off with Auction Ads and then other sites. He does do a great job making money and does an even better job explaining how to make money. It’s not quite the way he made money, but he does in a vague way how to make money. For instance, the top post right now is about how to start your own ad network. While it is somewhat a joke, it still can be used to learn something. Another post is about how to sort out the good and the bad affiliate networks when meeting them. Either way, while it is in all good, it isn’t great and I only go for great. He did a fantastic job at making money online, now I want to and he isn’t quite teaching me.
The third blog I want to discuss is Pro Blogger. Now, this is a bit different from the first two blogs I named above. While, he uses affiliate marketing to make money, he does what he says, he teaches how to blog. Now, the only difference between him and the others is he only focuses on blogging and blogging only. That limits you. Personally, I love blogging, but it gets hard to blog as frequent as I used to and I am working on that. His actual posts do teach me a lot. For instance, his post on Amazon affiliate blogging taught me how to run such a site. Who knows, maybe I will actually learn from him and make my blog better. This is how all bloggers should be, actually cater to their audience. I like how he runs things.
Now, the first thing I was told when I started in forums was the following. Always keep to yourself. It was the number one thing I was told to follow. Basically, I was to be the only person running my forum and have no partners; that I am the only one who should be the administrator. When I created the forum, I used tactics that I believed would work and guess what they did. Like when I was told when I should be the only one, I was told I shouldn’t share my tactics and ideas. Why? The saying: “Dead man tells no tale” came to mind in our discussion. I realize this with the big dogs who make the big bucks. While they will tell you “how to make money”, they won’t tell you all the ways on how to make money. They won’t reveal their secrets due to the fact that I will use them, you will use them, and whoever else reads the blog will use them. That basically nulls and voids the tactic and makes it cliché. That ruins whatever they have and forces them to use new ideas and tactics that aren’t proven to work. This is why they won’t really teach you all their ways, but give you help.
Why isn’t this quite a bad thing? Well, it isn’t. They do teach you some ideas. They do give you some pointers, but the rest is up to you. It isn’t hard to make money, just need something to make money with. With this blog, I will try and teach you to make money. Do I make money? Yes! Do I make a ton of money? NO! Is this blog dedicated to teach you how to make money? ABSOLUTELY NOT, but it can’t hurt you. I will give you actual tips that can help you make money, but the secret to make money is do it yourself the full way, don’t attempt shortcuts. I hope this post helps you out and I hope this actually makes sense. At 4:20am, I think this all works out. *Please pardon my grammar and spelling errors at this time. I will try to be much better next time.*
