One blog that particularly comes to mind is Vic’s internet marketing blog at Blogger Unleashed. Vic would post almost everyday with a great tip about how to make money online and truly cared that people make it. One day Vic didn’t post and someone got pissed about it. Come on people, he was giving you his secrets for free and you were getting pissed about him not posting. This truly hurt him which is why he took his teachings to a private forum at The Affiliate Academy. Unfortunately, I had to move on from his private forum, but I really did learn a lot from him and I really do appreciate it. The story I just told is just the tip of the iceberg, the whole situation really stressed Vic out and eventually made him very sick.

If you can’t tell by now what I’m getting at then I’ll just spell it out for you. The main reason that a lot of the good info about how to make money online is charged for is the people giving out the information are not appreciated when they give out their secrets for free. The other main reason is to weed out the people that are just looking for a free ride or think that they are can just put a website up and bing they are rich. If you are willing to pay $29 for an ebook or $39 per month for a membership site, then you must be somewhat serious about starting an online business.

It saddens me to say that charging for information does not weed out all of those that are looking for a free ride to working at home; these are the people that will shell out their money and two days after finishing the book or reading through a membership forum they are yelling scam because they don’t have $5,000 in their bank account yet. If you are one of these people that thinks this way, please just keep working your 9-5 job everyday and don’t even try to get your online business started.

While it is true that a lot of the information about how to make money online is available on blogs and websites for free, it will take you a lot of time to gather all of this information together and then make any sense of it to put it to good use. So if you truly believe that a membership or ebook will help you, then by all means spend the money on it, but I beg you to put the information to good use to make sure you are not throwing your money out the window.

This is just a little rant that I’ve been meaning to write about for a really long time now.

One of the things that I love about OWM is the fact that you don’t have to do it in one week, I highly recommend working through the checklist for each niche you choose as fast as you can so you can start earning money, but if you work full time or have other commitments, you can definitely take your time working through the checklist for each niche you choose. I cannot recommend it enough for people that work because of the simplicity of the entire course.

I do not recommend One Week Marketing to those of you who may be looking to make money tomorrow without lifting a finger. I also cannot recommend OWM if you are already familiar with how to build a web property and get traffic to it. You may learn a thing or two, but I do not think it’s worth the money for the intermediate to advanced internet marketer. If you have found yourself in the boat where you have some knowledge, but are looking for the pie in the sky, take what you have learned and put it to work. Just start experimenting and you should have some success and STOP SPENDING MONEY ON MORE EBOOKS.

if you are still reading this, then I’m assuming you have determined that OWM may be right for you to start making money online. Follow the steps that are put in front of you in the course and you can make money. However, some things have changed since One Week Marketing first hit the market and I would recommend some small changes be made in your efforts while you are going through this step by step course.

Since I’m getting a little long winded already, I’m going to save my recommended changes for future posts over the next week or two. To make sure you don’t miss any of these suggested changes, I recommend subscribing to my blog, which you can do along the right hand side of the page. Not only will you be notified of new posts, but you will also receive a free ebook about building an optin list. You may not be quite ready for a list, but it will be a nice piece of information to have when you are ready.

Also, if you are on the fence about One Week Marketing, make sure you download this free Squidoo Guide and the first 18 pages of OWM to get a flavor of what you will be learning.

Until later,
