How The Other Guy Made Money Online

You know, I find it very interesting. You do a search online for information about how to make the internet work in your favor to create some kind of financial assistance and when you find it you are usually pleased that it was so easy.

Pleased to have found someone who knows what it is that you are trying to accomplish and just how to do it. You have found a web site that is filled with ideas, tricks, techniques and tactics to reach your particular goal. The goal you have only dreamed of before but now the answers are within your grasp.

It is right there on the first page of the site in big bold colored letters, "I can show you how to make $xxx,xxx,xx in just 30 days." or maybe it says "By being a member of my team you have a guaranteed road to success."

It looks like someone actually wants to help you end your monitory struggles. Someone is ready to guide you into a new way of living.

As you read the rest of the story you can see that the information is vital to your financial situation. The more your read the more you want to get started creating your own future.

You are even more excited when you reach the part that says FREE information is available, just click here. It even goes on to say that the site owner NEEDS you. He needs you or he can't make anymore money, but together there is no end. He needs you to help him make more money and that equals more money for you too.

What could be better, more money for both. With this gentleman's help you are going to leave your money worries behind and enjoy a life of prosperity.

Things are looking up. A ray of sunshine has just broken through your cloudy existence. You can almost taste the freedom it offers.

Ok, you have learned enough from page one. Time to click that goody button and start the process of earning online cash. Go ahead, go for it, click the button.

There it is, the page with the FREE and a whole lot more information. But now the information is different. This time it tells you that you can sign up for free and become a free member which entitles your to some of the benefits. Some, but not all.

When you join you will also receive a weekly newsletter filled with usable and valuable information and helpful links. More avenues to success. Just sign up using your valid email address.

How sweet it is! Could it get any better!

The free membership tells you how to earn a few cents a day which if used correctly may lead to a few dollars a day but if you upgrade to a silver member or a gold member then the benefits will be greater.

This is where things always seem to start going wrong. After a second look you find that the first page was filled with information but it was really just the bare bones knowledge. The stuff you wanted to find believable. And you did.

It was exciting words and pictures that were designed to get you to open the next page. The page where you actually started helping the site author. You help him by giving your email address and by sending that $100 plus dollars or agreeing to pay a monthly membership fee of $50 0r $60 dollars per month and so far he is the only one making any money.

There is definitely something wrong with this picture. What changed, what happened to all the money you were to supposed make?

The reason for your initial search was to discover ways to increase your meager income. If you could afford to send money to all who ask you sure as hell would not need to seek financial assistance.

You are now bombarded with useless tidbits of stale information and links to more places to purchase another batch of some form of knowledge or another offer to become a member of something new and exciting

From this point on every time you open your email there is a newsletter from the author with a little info and maybe a quick line of humor and then a bunch of links. Links where you can find more information. But that new information comes with a ridiculous price tag.

All those links appear to be from the authors best friends. People he knows and trusts to be looking out for your best interest. Ya, Right! Most of those people have never even seen each other.

The author of your info site is just an affiliate of the others. He is getting paid to promote and to find sign ups. If you purchase or sign up to a link he receives a commission.

Your chance of ever making any real money is, at the most, slim. If you want to make money online you need to develop your own product and have that author promote it for you.

There will be more discussion on that subject in another upcoming article. Be sure and join me next time.

Oh, it will not cost you a dime and no monthly fees either.

Just read.
