Hello Everyone, I honestly came to finding this site because I'm on my last leg and don't know what to do. Well I can't believe I'm going to let a bunch of strangers know this, but I was laid off from my job in the auto industry in April of 2008 and have ended up on government support ever since. So I after a lot of searching for work and no luck turned to the internet. I had a person state they could show me step by step how to make $5,000 a month and more, I really had a great feeling come over me. I thought I would for sure be able to get out of the slump I'm in. But it has been 3 months now and I have made $10 and put out hundreds that I don't really have. All that person did is got me to get involved in 4 of there opportunities with no real advise or help at all, I was taken advantage of. I placed my faith in the fact I thought they were telling me the truth. Well anyways I'm looking for people to help me out but for real. I'm working 16 hours a day online and now my whole family life is falling apart. I'm in a couple of online opportunities getting no results. All I have been hoping for is a couple of great marketers to get involved in my opportunities and along the way they could teach me some really great ways of marketing. Maybe I can for once in my life end up becoming a success. Well I know this is a desperate cry for help but I have no other choice. For some reason I truly feel I'm in the right place to meet the right people that might be able to take me for "0" to success. Well thank you for reading and taking the time to get to this point. Sincerely, Matt
There is so many methods on BHW that will bank you some Cash. Maybe not break the bank will pay the bills. Some require very little work.. Wish I could help but teaching is my major downfall in life.
If you've been around for 3 months why is this your first post on a new account created just a few days ago? Did you have another account that you used here? Didn't you ever post to ask questions or PM people to ask for advice? I'm not saying your not sincere, and if you are I certainly feel for you and wish you the best. It just seems a little odd is all..
Hi Matt, I can appreciate where you're coming from as I had the same thing happen to me. I can tell you first off that there are way more people out there who will deceive you and rip you off than those who would try to truly help you. However, I can say you are in the right place though, these people here at BHW are great, honest, and to the point. They will give you the real like it is info instead of sugar coating it. I'm not to the point where I would like to be as far as making money online but I'm working on it all the time. I can tell you that in order to make money you do need a product to sell and people to sell it to. The first thing you need to do is keyword research to make sure you are promoting a product that a.) people want or desire b.) a product that is hot and in demand. Once you know those 2 things are good you can then move onto marketing the product. I would try to copy others who are promoting the same or similar product and make some small changes/additions to it to make it your own. You can start out by either creating articles based around long tail keywords or by creating your own review of the products. In addition you could just create a "what I liked about product x" article which is still kind of a review article but not as technical or detailed. You would then submit the articles to article directories. For now you can stick to the top 5 and later move on to more. After that create a lense at http://www.squidoo.com or a hub page on a similar keyword phrase and then link to your article. This will help you to get higher rank in the natural search engines. You will need to create a free account with clickbank and paypal if you do not have one yet. After you have your clickbank account you can promote thousands of other peoples products and get about 75% of the sale price. There is more to all of this but that would get you going. Please don't expect to be able to make a few thousand dollars your first month of doing this as it takes time but you can get there if you work smart, and read thru lots of posts on this site. If some of the terms I used above don't mean anything to you then let me know and I will see if I have some info on the basics of internet marketing. And no, I will not ask you for any money ever. I wish you the best! James
Sorry to hear of your troubles, but a quick piece of advice, 99% of the members here are honest people who will help you anyway they can for free, but like everywhere there is always scammers lurking about to help part you from your money. My advice is pick one type of marketing whether it be adsence cpa or whatever learn all you can about this subject, Don.t get diverted by the next quick money scheme. Stick at a niche you like and work like mad at it. Learn from your mistakes, and do not be afraid to ask for help, Do not over abuse the generosity of the members here, check the earlier posts to make sure your questions have not already been answered. It will take time and plenty of work, so be a little bit patient and hopefully in a year or so, you will come back , offering advice to others who are trying to succed Best of luck Was it Jefferson who said The harder I work the luckier I get
if you're doing IM for 16 hours a day with no results, that means you're doing it wrong. you need to set an income goal, and then make sure that everything you do takes you one step closer to that goal. you do this by setting up metrics to measure your progress so you know that all the work you're putting in is actually moving you in the right direction and you're not just wasting your time. IM is about working smarter, not harder.
Man I feel for you. Truth is Internet Marketing is hard. But not impossible. You just need to find that one thing that brings enough money to allow you to expand. It also has to do with confidence. Once you find that one small money maker you will be confident in what you do. But don't be discouraged if you fail cause without failure you won't learn. Bless you brother
Thank you for you message I haven't been on here for three months I came across this just a few days ago. I have been working online with not any results for the past three months. I'm being sincere and still can't even believe I placed this post out to strangers but this is my last attempt at actually doing something before I just give up. I have the time but not the know how. Sincerely, matt
Focus on making money with methods that you can do. When you get the chance, look for a JV (partner) If your gonna spend money (invest) then find a partner and go 50/50 But trust only as far as you can throw him...lol
Thank you everyone for the great information. I truly think this site is going to save me. But I know I have to work hard and I'm willing to do that. Thank you so much for all the kind words and words of support you really don't know what it means to me. Sincerely, Matthew Roberts
Thank you so much it would definitely make it easier if I found a partner and we worked together. Someone that might be able to show me a little. I'm a smart person and I know that but I just need that little knowledge I don't currently have. Sincerely, Matthew Roberts
Try streaming videos on smotri dot com in the private section. If you can find videos that can grab viewers attention more then the current broadcasts you will grab hundreds of viewers maybe over 1,000. After you got a high number watching you change your broadcast to a picture saying the broadcast is going private message me on yahoo to request a password. You will get tons of ims. Make a message up saying to get the password to the broadcast they need to goto your website and provide there email for a password. Tell them to read the confirmation mail sent and visit the link and then the password will be x word on x line. I used to do this and I would get one CPA signup for every 100 viewers roughly. Its not hard to get your video with 400-600 viewers fairly quickly within the hour. I made a thread on this but it never really caught on if you want to check it out its here Streaming Videos
The guys who really know their stuff and are willing to help complete strangers make money usually post that info on the forum. They do not wait for noobs to pm them for info, or worse, go and pm other people with info. So anytime a stranger picks you to help you make money, and teaches you something, or anything, you should ask yourself this question: why did he chose you? he did not know you, had no connection to you, why would he bother helping you make money and not other people?
Well that seems to be a very powerful comment and I was in such a bad situation I fell for it and didn't even really give it any thought. But yes the real person that was going to make the money was him. But I was at least hoping to make enough to make all my time and money I placed into it worth while. Thank you so much for your comment. Sincerely, Matthew Roberts
well matt,the truth is that if you stick onto Internet marketing and never leave it despite failures,you will succeed!Never quit.
What were you making money from do you mind telling us since it was only $10 and it seems like you do not want to focus on this anymore. You should start off with CPA Offers.. which basically means if someone submits there email etc to a website box then you get paid cash.
ezbuttoncash an MLM business opportunity that you receive instant $5 payments for each person you refer and they pay to get involved. 5 levels deep. That was one of them the other one I made nothing at all. It was another MLM. Hopefully this answers your question. Thanks for asking. Sincerely, Matthew Roberts
Seriously, if you are that hard up for cash, write articles for associated content. they will pay you at least $4 per article, and as long as they are unique and relevant to their topics, you can make $100 per day easily. If you are truly working 16 hour days, this should be a piece of cake since their articles only need to be 400+ words.
