I am posting this in a separate thread as I did not want to hijack or detrack from the original. I have been going through a lot in the DP archives. The advices many times have been totally open and honest. I have seen people who are making a coupld of K's on the internet sharing their information freely. But the one's who are making above that... ah they are a very secretive lot... but then if it was me maybe even I wouldn't share my tricks with the world... A lot of the old posters, who used to give out solid advices, are no where to be seen these days.. they come read and go away... but no sharing of experience nowdays... For newbies DP is excellent. The support new people receive here is just AWESOME, but after a while it becomes redundant, as people are reluctant to support anything further than the starting phase. Lately, it seems as I hear more of NEWS than support from people. The threads are moving away from supporting people to providing information on whats new. And the people who ask for help, get very few replies to their threads. Below are two posts, one by "Hexed" and another by "leet". What do you all have to say about it? I am 65% for Hexed and 35% for leet. Discussion: on thread http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=150214&page=2 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Quote by "HEXED" Look it's really not that hard to make $4000/month with Adsense if you know what you're doing and have some computer smarts. The problem is there's alot of bad information in these forums posted by amateurs. At the same time, there is alot of good information as well. The problem exists because the real professionals aren't going to post their secrets in forums. Why? Well forums are created for the sole fact of getting and sharing information. What reason do professionals have to share information if they are alreadying making the $$? That's not a good business decision. That's the sole reason why you don't see me giving tips and hints out as well. Enjoy Hexed ********************************** This was the reply by "leet" No one asked if you were professional or not. And no one asked if it was not that hard for you to make $4000 per month. There are lots of people willing to earn quarter of that amount. Don't be so vein, professionals are also humans. By the way not all people are selfish like you. I know, it's not very logical to share your tricks, but I have done this for 2 people, and now they're also earning at least $5k per month. And you know what, it doesn't count anything for me except their prays for me. Sometimes do something that you never thought you would do, and make some people happy.. For last, no offense. Just wanted to mention my thoughts.. Regards, Gökhan ***********************************
This has the possibility to be a good discussion. Many times I have given out great tips. But what I was refering to there is the fact that I'm not about to release what I do and how I do it. Let's face it. If someone were to expose all their secrets, then the market would become saturated with that "secret." Why would anyone risk that if they worked so hard to get where they are? I'm all for sharing information, but there becomes a point where information doesn't come free. Hexed
I agree with you in those 2 opinions. But what I mentioned was not telling it all public. I've met 2 people on some forum before, and they were trying hard to make money somehow. They deserved to make money, but they were not succesful if we don't count $1-2 per day as a success. They needed a guide, so I guided them and told them anything that I know almost. Of course we can't share all our tricks, and not public especially, then what would be our speciality? But still I believe that sometimes helping people that really need to make money from the net can make you happier than making dozens k of dollars per month. Regards, Gökhan
Ok guys...... see http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=150960 Can you help me earn $1k a month? PM me
funny...can you help me earn 1k a week? is that new kind of begging? reason why no one reply is that the same question had beeb asked miooion time already...no want want to reply the same simple answer thread after thread... do a research yourself and save other sometime reading your "unique" thread
The reason no one has replied is because it is a NEW thread!! Oh and I have had replies thanks! A new kind of begging? Read the thread and see for yourself. My question is a hypethetical one. The thread suggests that people are unwilling to help. From your reply that does seem to be the case!!
hmmm.. what's begging about it. webmasters are here looking for help and to earn money. for some the target maybe 1k for others a 100k. Fact is DP is the best support place, and yes most threads have been answered previously. But then there are so many members... its not that pleasant to say its been answered before so get ure ass out and search the archives. Many times the cases are unique and hey who likes to wait and read a hundred posts when u cud get just that one reply that ure looking for. It doesn't hurt anyone.
I don't see anything wrong with the state of things. I've seen people here give out more than enough info for someone to get started. I think it's ridiculous that people come on here expecting someone to hold their hand through the whole process. From what I've seen, if you ask an intelligent question and post a link showing something you're trying to do. The old hands will give you some good tips about it. If you just come on here asking things like "How do I make X amount of $$ in X amount of time? Please tell me the exact steps." People will just ignore you, or call you a newb.
