People often ask me for advice on how to make money online.

This is a common question and there are many “experts” who give advice on how to make money online too.

Like many things involving this niche on the internet, there are many traps and pitfalls to be mindful of.  The first thing to note when you are taking advice from people online is to find out who they are and what they promote.  For example if you want to learn how to make money online using blogs, the best way to find out how to do it is to find a person who actually does it well and has a track record for it.  This can be done with some reasearch on google, but please be cautious as you do need to sift through information that could be completely biased (due to affiliates promoting the “expert’s” products) or very opinionated views.

Some material could well be self promotion material such as the expert’s own site or blog.  You really need to use your instincts to gauge what you read about.

Advice given from PPC (pay per click) ads on google tend to be promotional material designed to make money from you, so I would be very wary of getting “advice” from such sources.  One of the better ways is to go to forums on your topic which have a lot of input from various sources.  This tends to weed out the phoney self promoting marketers though you still need to be careful of what you listen to.

On a personal level, I can tell you that during the past few years, I fell for many traps and got conned quite a few times listening to so called advice online.  It took a step learning curve for me to get to where I am now and finally figure it all out.  I guess it was some trial and error - something I do not recommend if you can help it.

There is a much easier way.  You can learn all about it by reading my report here. It tells you what I went through and what I eventually discovered……Well worth a read.
