Are you finally convinced that there is no such thing as a job security? Good! However, if you are in the pursuit of making your financial dreams come true, please bear this in mind:

Most of the rich people in the world today become rich by building a business in their spare time.

So should you!

If you have commitments to meet at month’s end, to quit your full-time job and jump straight into building a business can be very risky, online or offline.

The good news is that you can still be wealthy by building an Internet Business in your spare time.

And the other good news is that building an Internet Business does not require you to be at the computer table for long hours. In fact, the working hours can be rather flexible and the Internet is highly leveraged.

This is one of the many advantages an Internet Business can offer that conventional businesses do not.

I recommend you to build an Internet Business in your spare time as you will also learn business and leadership skills in the process, the same skills you may not learn from a job as an employee.

However, like any other forms of businesses, do not expect money to be rolling in too soon. If you still have commitments and bills to pay, keep your day time job for it keeps food on your table as you work on your Online Business. But work on your Internet Business in your spare time religiously and the results will show.

While your friends are watching TV at home or drinking beer at the bar talking trash, use your spare time wisely to build a successful business online. You will want to look forward to the financial and personal differences you make for yourself from your peers.

As soon as you finish building your money pipeline and when your residual income exceeds the amount of expenses you pay in a week or month, only then you can safely resign from your job to be financially free and perhaps pursue to grow your new-found wealth!

And by that I mean you free yourself from the drudgery of waking up early in the morning against your own will and earning less than how much you think you should be worth your time and effort.

White hat is the the methods you know such as manually link building, writing your own content or outsourcing, etc.. basically doing everything by the book is called white hat technique. Blackhat are things that by the book but not usually illegal. So this means blackhat maybe unethical or against terms of usage by your sponsors or merchants but it is almost impossible to get into legal problems in my opinion. Blackhole is an more extreme form of blackhat which can go as far as hacking.

I don`t practice any of these techniques and don`t recommend blackhat or blackhole strategies to anyone for a few reasons.

1. They are generally short lived techniques that get you discovered, banned and therefore all your work must be started again. You think you save time but in most cases, its very time consuming then you originally think.

2. It makes online business a worse place for those honest, hard working business entrepreneus. While I believe you need to be on the up and up and protect your business as much as possible, these shady techniques such as voting or buying your own affiliate produts may put a lot of good websites out of business, websites that offer a valuable resource to the internet.

If you find yourself with no money, no time to wait and in a rut to generate some cash quickly I suppose you can break your ethics and get a launch on your business using some proven blackhat techniques. But I recommend you only use these in extreme needs and only to get you started on your path and if you are not careful you can destroy a lot of hard word overnight.

I just saw a video tutorial of an online marketer and I could not help cringe at the video tutorial entitled 3 steps to instant cash online. So I decided to write this report to review the techniques mentioned because I really hate false information being spread around about making money on the internet.

Technique 1. Create a website in 4 hours and sell in on sitepoint.com for $400 or so.

The marketer mentions that you could just grab youtube videos on the subject as content and that would be sufficient to qualify as content for getting the site ranked on a small niche, indexed etc…

Comment: I suppose if all you had to do is “scrape” or copy content from other sites you could build a site in 4 hours or much less but the truth is google does not index duplicate content even if different domains, different class c ip addresses. Makes perfect sense to me, would you have 2 copies of the same movie on your hard drive? Since it is not indexed you don`t get the credit for the page. Which means if only 1 page (your main page of your site) is original, that is the only page that will be indexed in google. Google gives websites with many pages higher ranking then those with only a few pages. So where do you think you will rank with a one page site indexed? You won`t rank anywhere even for 5 word key phrases.

Technique 2.  Article Marketing.  Submit your articles to article marketing for free traffic and backlinks.

Comment: I have tried submitting 3 articles to ezinearticles  and all 3 times I got a automatic  duplicate or similar content reply rejection before even trying to submit the articles.  I know my article was not the same but only similar topic because I searched ezinearticles search feature before hand. Nevertheless, it seems if there has been an article written close to the headline you won`t be able to submit your articles.  Just like anything else, it works for a certain time, then when its over saturated, its no longer effective.

It’s been more then 2 months now that I have submitted www.imoneyonline.com to about 150 directories manually yet not a single backlink of these directories is showing up in google. I know at least 50 of these have added me to their database already from email confirmations.

At first I thought this is googles way of probating or sandboxing the method of crediting backlinks to new sites but, within the first month of website launch and link request with another blog I got the backlink credit showing up in google. So, I don`t believe this probation , sandbox penalty is applied to all sites. It all depends who the link is coming from. As I have read before and suspected, sites that are valued by google are sites which have content sitting on their server. Directory sites are nothing but links to other sites. There is no content such as written text, photos, videos on the server itself. Because of this I believe google gives the sites importance a big fat ZERO. Do not confuse this with Page Rank.

You will also note these directory sites usually have a PR (page rank) of 3 or 4 on the main page however the category where you want to put your link is either zero or not ranked.

I have spied on competition’s backlinks and can tell you it is not useless to have your link on PR0 or not ranked page. You could however pay attention to the category that has the highest PR where you can list your site. PR is not the end all solution but its worth paying attention to it in this case.

So you’re probably wondering, if submitting to directories is useless how come dmoz and yahoo give such great results for people? We need to realize that comparing dmoz or yahoo to somenonamedirectory.com is almost like compating apples and oranges. Dmoz is a serious authority site with a life of at least 10 years and yahoo directory even longer. Also the main page of the directories are either PR 8 or higher. Dmoz has over 100k one way backlinks.

I have seen some services that submit your site to 300 or 400 directory sites manually and I was considering doing this to any new niche sites with little competition but after seeing zero result with imoneyonline.com I have lost interest.

Instead I believe your link building should be focused on getting links from sites that have content on their own server. I am quite certain google sees these no name no authority link directories as nothing more then link farms.

It took a visit to the sales page of tube automator to confirm the lie about video marketing or tube marketing. Products such as Traffic Geyser promise you loads of traffic quickly if you only submit your videos to the top 30 or 40 video sharing sites such as Youtube, google video , metacafe , etc…

However, here lies the lie. Just like the search engines, only a hand full of videos get decent amount of views. If you analyze the most viewed videos they are generally not monetizing type videos. Sex and porn are certainly easy to get views for your video, infact I have seen many attempts where a photo of a sexy woman is used as thumbnail but the video is about 911 or something completely unrelated to the keywords in the title or the tags. So how is this video marketing? More like video spamming if you ask me. I have seen many good quality videos that don`t get even 100 views in 1 week so its not about quality either. Its about getting attention of the video viewers to click with both keywords and thumbnail photo. That`s the only thing that really matters at the beginning. If the video is of quality, ratings will come naturally and the video will climb and pretty soon it will rank #1 for the keyword phrase you intended it to.

Btw, tubeautomator is a software to give you this jump of the video ratings and views of your quality video. And in my opinion this is the only way video marketing can be successful. If you rely entirely on posting quality videos in quantities, I have strong doubts you will get any decent traffic. I would however like to ask traffic geyser members to comment here as they are all paying $99 per month for video submission. How much are you guys making per month just from video submissions traffic?

Writing articles to market a product or service is an excellent way to build business. The articles should be very informative, providing the reader with information that is relevant to a specific topic. The article usually includes a link to a webpage for more information. The webpage, of course, is designed to sell a product or service that relates to the topic of the article.

These articles are commonly submitted to article banks, websites, and ezine publishers. This is one of the most effective ways to market a service or product on the Internet, and it can become even more effective when it is combined with the use of an
autoresponder.

Begin by setting each of your articles up in your autoresponder. It is important that each article have its very own autoresponder address, so you will need an autoresponder service that will allow you to do this. Next, make a master list of your articles, with
the autoresponder address for each article listed beside the title. You can even add descriptions of the articles on your master list if you want to.

Advertising your articles one at a time can take a great deal of time…but advertising one autoresponder address – the one for the master list – won’t take very much time at all. Simply put it in your newsletter and on your website. You can even allow other ezine publishers to use this is a free resource for their subscribers! This is an excellent way to increase your income with minimal time invested. After all, isn`t that
why you got into the online business?

To all writers and non-writers out there, now is the time to start digging up those creative writing skills back.
With modern communication technology comes the popularity of information-based marketing, which is one of the oldest and most effective techniques in getting targeted prospects to sites and converting them into buyers. This is why article writing, submissions and publications are also getting popular.

I have now come across several free ebooks of very good value or paid ebooks with free distribution rights that are filled with affiliate links or product links within. I now understand the smart strategy used here in order to make huge profits quite quickly.

First let’s look at it from you the guy that gets the free ebook from this website for instance. The ebook is filled with valuable info. It may be so good infact that other marketers could be selling it for $97 on clickbank but you are giving it away for free.

Mistake? No way…

Now from the perspective of the marketer who wrote the free ebook. The ebook specifies that you may freely distribute the ebook, resell it for 100% profit but you may not alter any of the content within. IE. the affiliate or product, service links within the ebook. So if the ebook creator was smart, he wrote the ebook in a way to incorporate links to either his own paid products, services or simply links via his affiliate link.

The trick for massive sales from the ebook links is the quality of the ebook itself. The ebook has to be good enough that people should feel its worth decent money. Which means the same PLR free mailing list content you get probably won’t cut it because its not unique.

If you are not an expert in the field you could hire a ghostwriter to right the ebook for you . It could be a 20 or 30 pages and does not have to cost a fortune. Even if you pay $400 to have the ebook written you could make thousands from affiliate sales the viral ebook would create. One sends it to one, then he sends it to another and so on….. Viral spread of the ebook very quickly. But it will only work if the ebook is hot ie. valuable info.
