As I said, I’m a professional Internet Newbie. But I don’t intend to be one for long. When I started I told myself, I have a good understanding of what the internet is all about and how it can be used to promote ideas, businesses and generate revenue. It’s massive, overwhelming, abundant and rich with wealth, my source of news, I make purchases over it, my source for emails, and I stay in touch with what’s going on right now. It’s awesome and all just so simple.

So why not create my own website, express my internet personality and make some money in doing so. I think we all share this same thought and interest. And as I began, I believe that we also share some of these same questions; how do I start, where do I go to begin, how much money is this going to cost me, how long will it take to start seeing the fruits of my labor? After all the internet is so easy, I can do it. So, I told myself lets just get going. I’ll start researching, see what products and information is available. I can figure this out with a little help and I’ll be on my way. It may be hard at first and I know I will have to do my homework, but I can do it. So I did.

So as a new “Newbie”, I began by searching the internet looking for advise and a “how to guide” to model my new adventure. I found that the good news is that there is a lot of information available, both free and others that cost me bucks. The bad news is, who’s right and worse yet is there a right model to follow that matches my finances, and time. Then the question that was always in the back of my mind…WHO CAN I TRUST?

I learned my first lesson; you can’t trust just anyone out there. I knew that, and I thought I would be able to find and recognize a trustworthy source that I could rely on. That became the biggest obstacle I had to overcome. The problem is this; we all share the same interest in making money. I know its earth shattering news, but how do you know there is validity behind a sales pitch or is it just another person’s way of making a quick buck off of you? I quickly learned that being new you are at their mercy. And I began to feel the pain in my wallet of not being able to find a trustworthy source.

Thank God, I found sources and individuals that have my trust. So I decided that I want to have a Blog to share my experiences, offer my opinion on products, plans and offerings that work and those that don’t. As we combine our war stories both positive and negative, we can create an environment that is beneficial to all. Don’t get started off on the wrong path to nowhere, other than to make a thief rich.

This Blog will be used as sounding board of what I have found to work and who and what to avoid as money trap. I know I may piss off people, and so be it. I have no problem exploiting a weasel. I will be honest with my experience and welcome all your experiences. This internet is so BIG that there is room for all of us to make some money and share with the Newbie’s the pitfalls that are out there.

So I welcome your input, questions and opinions on what out there. Throw it out there on the table! What works, who do you trust and who or what to stay away from and why. You won’t hurt my feelings. And I enjoy hearing about success stories that we can all learn from.
