So yeah, I read some of the "making money" blogs from time to time. It's not really my thing. I blog occassionally, but I make money from product sites.
I "kinda" do affiliate marketing, though what I do is a lot different than the typical PPC to Landing page methods. I tend to like the blogs that are more into coding, different programming tips,seo,affiliate marketing- real shit. In other words, not John Chow "I make Money from Writing Blogs about shit I ate and having fanboys fawn over my lameass making money non-methods."
One of the better blogs lately is UberAffiliate. Let me make it real clear. I think the guy is genuine and I believe his claims. He has done really well for himself and he takes the time to make some decent posts.
But frankly, a lot of his "tips" are no more advanced than a million other blogs out there. This isn't his fault. And NO, I dont expect him to share all the shit that makes him money. But when this dude makes a post, he gets dozens of comments from .idiots who just can't believe he would give away such knowledge for free. What The Fuck?
You guys wanna make money online?
Um ok.
1. Make a Site
2. Sell something ( yeah here's a free tip- you might need to do some research and actual work)
3. Drive Traffic
4. There you go. Make Millions.
Its not this guy's fault. I like his site. But I have found 99% of the audience for any of these blogs are people who have no clue and will never make any money in anything. Why? They don't know how to think. They don't know how to research, plan,etc. And if they get that far they are too lazy to take any fucking action.
And this is why people like John Chow can make $20,000 a month writing about shit that offers no real value for anyone.
People like Uberaffiliate and Shoemoney and all those other people are out there making money because they want to and they put forth the effort. But don't think you are gonna find some jewel in their blogs. You have to go out and do the shit for yourself.
