Looking for advice from experienced BHW members please!

[affuni]

Hi all,

Hope you've had a good weekend and grabbed some of the beautiful weather we've been having in the South East of the UK!?

So I'm relatively new to the forum and to making money online but not a complete moron and like to think I can spot a scam. That said, I'm pretty desperate to make some money online and still suffer the shiny object syndrome that affects a lot of us.

So I have read through so many threads and ideas on making money. It's quite difficult to know -

1. What works?
2. What still works in 2023 if from an older thread
3. What is a load of rubbish and/or a scam

I don't expect anything to be easy, with no work or effort, nor do I believe in getting rich quick. I currently am building my website/blog but don't expect to make money via this for some months so am looking for other methods that I could start earning from with minimal or no startup costs and relatively newbie friendly.

I grabbed a guide and was all ready to start with gift card buying and reselling until I read another post somewhere that it doesn't work anymore etc etc and feel like I'm back to square one and a little overwhelmed.

If any long-standing and trusted BHW members could offer any advice whatsoever, on this thread or via DM, I would be beyond grateful. Obviously anyone is welcome to reply but just wary of who I can trust and the more well known and trusted a member is the better.

Sorry for the long post and thank you in advance to any help, guidance, ideas etc etc offered!

Have a good week ahead!

Ben

1. almost all work, you just need to thinker and modify it. how to thinker and modify by trial and error. keep doing => more experience => more skill.
2. same as number 1
3. anything that guarantee income or promise easy money. there is no magic abracadabra that give you instant sucess, even exploit come with trial and eror and lot of resource investment.

Thanks for the reply and info buddy! I appreciate it.

It can be difficult to separate the good from the bad! Definitely expect to have to put the work in on whatever method i go with, which is fine as long as I know it can work and isnt a load of rubbish!

Learn how to code, build saas worth $1m+ with your skills, done.
For me learning programming moved everything I wanted to do to another level.

with enough experience and skill it will work. no matter which method you do, at the end it's kind connected. a failure will ad into your experience and improve your skill
at it core it's all making content, pull traffic than monetize the traffic.

Great advice and no doubt very true and valuable but I think what I am wanting/needing is some side hustle type stuff that can either bring in small amounts of money a month or that can be scaled.

Saying that, I have no clue whatsoever about coding, would you recommend anywhere to start learning or just Google it?

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it!!

Yeah that's very true. I think the hardest part of my upcoming website will be getting it listed and SEO optimized and getting actual traffic to it.

What if your side houstle go wrong and you dont earn anything? Most guys here earn nothing or close to nothing.
Learning skill thats worth something is good idea, If something goes wrong you still have solid skill.

or that can be scaled.

Programming in many cases can help with scaling.

would you recommend anywhere to start learning or just Google it?
