How exactly do all these "make money off the internet" programs work?
Unfortunately, there is no good way for the average person to make money on line.


In general, almost all money making sites on the web are scams. Under no circumstances should you give any money making site your credit card number. Never sign up for any "free" service that is free for one month and then you have to cancel it to avoid credit card charges. You will find it very hard to cancel. The phone number they give you to cancel may always be busy, so you can't cancel. They will often charge your credit card even after you think you have cancelled. Never give a survey site your bank account number or personal information.





Many sites claim you can make money by filling out surveys or clicking on ads or some other silly method. They screw you around answering some surveys and then try to push the "free" offers that you have to charge to your credit card. One common trick they play is that they let you make 5-10 dollars easiliy. But their website rules say you have to earn 40 dollars before they send you a check. To make the extra money you have to participate in "free" offers. I have played aroung on some of these sites and it always come down to them wanting to get your credit card number in the end. Don't let them.





You will find many people on the web that claim they made a lot of money at such-and-such a website. They are usually liars trying to make money. They will say: "Go to cashcrap.com/q2347." The "q2347" is a signal to the Cashcrap site that you are being referred to them by "q2347." If they sucker money out of you, "q2347" gets a kickback. These coded signals can be hidden by different methods in the link.





Note that I say there is no good way for the AVERAGE person to make money on the internet. If you are not average, and have some special skill, you can make money. If you are good at selling things, try selling things on E-bay. If you are good at writing, set up a blog or other site and sell ads. If you are good at computer programming, try setting up a site that uses your skills.





However, if you go to a site that claims ANYBODY can make money, it is usually a scam

First let me say,…


It’s wise that you are “Skeptical and Doubtful” !





However,… by doing as much research about doing business


Online as possible you will learn the techniques needed to


Make a go at an Online Business.





For example.. Usually, with any BIZ Opportunity one must learn the art of..





* Online Advertising %26amp; Marketing,… (How’s and Where’s !)





* Lead-Generating – Using Websites Pages and Software programs to gather


Contacts/Leads.





*Contact List-Building – “The Money Is In The List”!


With out your own List of Contacts Is nearly impossible to make sales!





* Communication Skills – Utilizing e-Mail,. Instant-Messengers – MySpace etc,


The Telephone





* “Follow-Up” Skills and techniques – This is a must – Learn about Auto-Responders.





These are just a few things “Successful” online business owners learn to master.





I suggest, first locating a Mentor or a Coach to help get you acquainted


With the Tools and Skills need to start an Online Venture!





A Good Mentor or Coach will help find an Online Biz Opp that will be right for you!





If your really interested in getting involved with something online.





Plan to spend some cash on Learning Tools (eBooks, memberships)


AND plan to spend a lot of time reading and experimenting! (Learning)





Running a Biz Opp online will not happen over night!





Despite what the HYPE say’s out there!
Reply:i've never take a look at it before when i heard it the first time. since you asked i go and check it out and saw some of the videos related to this program which is called passport to wealth. it cost USD997 to join and if i not mistaken have a monthly fee somewhere USD30 for any member who want to use the original website with videos as their affiliate website to generate sale.





the sale is 100% for you and that is USD997 for every first two sale bringing in by your downline starting at your third downline. they claim the sale comes with products values USD75000 in retail. it looks like much because that how internet marketer value things. you can get most of the products for free if you join private label membership type club which is free. but if you need better product you have to upgrade your membership to paid monthly subscribers.





to me the problem with online biz systems is that the products they give or sell can't make you money easily. what make you money is the system. it is like you sell ebooks giving away secret about losing weight fast but when you read the books it is not easy after all or if it is a secret you might have to spend more money to implement the secret. but people buy the ebooks because they want to know so much about the secret.





you also can say that this kind of program is like getting people to donate USD997 and then they find other people to donate their money. but this program are better than any other system on the net but very costly. but i don't promote this kind of program because of the values of the product. the USD997 value is not justifiable.





if you want to try it don't go alone. find 20 or more people to invest in small capital each. so the risk would be small. and if it did make profit at least a lot of people benefit from it. and when you all get your profit then buy another one on your own if that is what you feel of doing. i believe the systems will pay you. the only thing a don't like about the program is they attract people to join with high fee but give out not so good products. buyers will find it so hard to make money from the products. the only way you can make money is selling the system but not using the products.





i know this because i've read most of the ebooks and i don't feel good selling to other people because of the quality. but that is me. i just give my opinions. it is your life and your money. so do what is best for you. just remember don't waste money that you can't afford to lose and then blaming other people later on. hope that helps. if you need to learn online biz thru my perspective you check my profile.
