    I've never bought any such book, because I came at things from the other side. I'd been working for clients creating/writing/publishing/monitoring adwords for them, from scratch ... and a lot of them show you the form you fill in - which is the Yahoo or the Google form.

    So I wrote a nice little page explaining this to people. I headed it data entry jobs and I got the traffic. I told them what those adverts are and what they need to do - and I gave them a couple of free ebooks so they can do it themselves, without paying a penny.

    Traffic came ... nobody ever downloaded those books.

    They're not interested ... they think I am an idiot/wrong - and clearly the ones you pay for are not this at all.

    It's sad but true, I saw the scam value with that "get your google adwords for free" it turned out to be a 100k+ best seller. When I first saw it I instantly knew that someone online would spill the beans and sure enough I found a rogue blog with its blogger telling all. I think people are so conditioned to hype-type claims and sensationalism that if they see anything else (especially for free) regardless of it's potential for online wealth they won't bother looking at it. I think the masses think that if it's for free it's too cheap and doesn't contain the information/secrets they desire for success. As the saying goes " If you can't beat'em join them!"

    Well, I did mention that I was already aware of this but the logic that guy was using was hidden. And that's what I wanted to know that what these people do to fool others.

    So I don't understand that how this comes in picture:
    May be it looks like sometimes people do not read the posts carefully before replying.

    I takes me year to get eagle eyes for such programs . When you are newbie to online money making thing , they usually get very excited by money making opportunities,also there are a lot of newbies here (Although many marketers won't admit but these noobs are their favorite customers )
