On the internet it is still all about going as fast as you can. Think of something, set a site up the same day, start a blog about it the same week. Start marketing immediately. Get the software done, at least a first version ASAP and prelaunch or launch an alpha version.
The problem is ofcourse that you really cannot rush programmers into doing that kind of thing. Some programmers can do it, but most will require more and more (and more and more…) time getting it done and then it is usually not as you want it.
Is this feeling of ; why can’t he just get it done? And is the accompanying feeling of powerlessness familiar to you? It is to me…
The concept of automating content on sites has always fascinated me. As an ex artificial intelligence student, the prospect of generating content, putting it on a page and actually getting people to read it is very compelling to me.
In the fast paced world of web development, automated content means a lot of things, but it almost never means actual generating of original, high quality content by a computer. What it usually means is ‘generating’ content by mixing some existing sources, which is, of course, not really generating anything but more copying.
Still; it seems interesting to investigate if this really works and if there is any merit to it.
As my readers know, I have been making money online for a long time. Well, online usually meant mixing offline with online. Visiting (boring) clients, talking to people in person (which I hate), giving presentations (which I hate even more). And then the work usually would move to online; getting outsourcing for the project set up, talking to the client via mail from then on (if I could help it) etc.
But that is not really making money online. For me making money online is a total process of making every cent you earn in a ‘project’ or company online; no offline things involved. This means;
For me personally it actually means zero facetime, not even that horrible invention called Skype.
One of the favorite sites of marketeers seems to be clickbank.com. There are thousands of ‘interesting ‘products with shiny pages shouting about how exactly you can train your dog or your child. Or of course; how to be a rich person very fast. Of course I would like to be a rich person very fast, so I occasionally try this stuff out, even only for kicks to see what crap someone writes and the psychology of why someone would buy that actually.
One of these books is the getgoogladsfree ’system’. This system promises you that you can, quite easily have your Google adwords ads running for free! Sounds amazing doesn’t it? Well it is quite amazing and that’s why it very probably does not work. Seems many people are desperate enough to buy systems that cannot work, probably because they have money trouble, enough of their jobs etc.
As a newcomer in the online moneymaking business, you soon will discover that almost all ebooks you can buy online are centered around the same subject; getting referrals, and getting them to 5 or 6 or 7 levels deep. This is simply the kind of business this is.
Unlike traffic businesses and so on, this kind of system depends on you building a very active downline. When you have that in the system, you’ll be making a lot. But how do you get such a downline?
